“Our first review from our first Island Walkers Keith & Tina 9/23/2024”
We recently had the pleasure of staying at Sandy and Gordy’s amazing B&B, and we can’t possibly recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel incredibly welcome. Sandy and Gordy could not be more friendly, helpful, or kind—they really go above and beyond to make sure your stay is perfect. The location is stunning, nestled right beside a beautiful bay with fantastic views that are simply breathtaking. What sets this B&B apart is how much Sandy and Gordy understand the needs of hikers. They specialize in accommodating walkers, and it shows. There are laundry facilities available, which were such a relief after a long day on the trails. And the best part? The hot tub! It’s the perfect way to relax and soothe sore muscles after a day of exploring. The entire experience felt like a home away from home, with all the comforts and warmth we could ask for. If you're looking for a place that combines beautiful scenery, thoughtful amenities, and hosts who truly care, this is it!
Walking is Mindful
The best time for walking the Island is in our “shoulder months” which allows us to keep the rates at a reasonable price.
There is no guarantee on the weather however the temperatures are usually suited best for walking during the months of May, June, September & October
