A little Cake Walk moment from Chris & Colleen’s Pointhouse elopement.

Inspired by the bride’s cake vision, Leo Longman from Clayton’s brought the design to life. Coastal Wedding & Events floral designer Melissa Tripp provided coordinating blooms to top the cake and compliment the elegant trailing bouquet. Then it was time for a ch*****ne toast on the deck.

The sweetest details, made personal. ✨

Looking for a reason to get outdoors and see the Sunshine Coast a little differently?

On Saturday, September 19, local iNaturalist Ambassador Rand Rudland is leading a community BioBlitz at Connor Park as part of the Canadian Wildlife Federation’s Great Canadian BioBlitz.

It is an easy, welcoming way to spend a morning outside: learn how to use iNaturalist, wander the park and adjacent forest, and help document the birds, plants, insects, fungi, and other life that make this coast so extraordinary.

For guests staying at Pointhouse who enjoy getting beyond the usual stops and connecting with the place they’re visiting, it is a wonderful local experience. No expertise required, just bring a phone or tablet and some curiosity.

The Sunshine Coast Biodiversity Project has already recorded more than 121,000 observations and over 5,000 species. Every new observation helps build that picture.

Great Canadian BioBlitz at Connor Park
Saturday, September 19
9:00 a.m.
Meet at the Connor Park Community Hall parking lot

Summer storm action. Not a day for lounging on the dock unless you like carnival rides. B&B guests are enjoying the soothing sounds for great sleeps.

Crab Apple trees at Sargeant Bay Park are bursting with fruit. Help reduce the temptation for local bruins in their hyperphagsia stage by picking some for eating or processing . Best ones may require a ladder as the low hanging fruit has already been eaten. The fate of the trees is in your hands as the debate continues whether they should be removed to decrease bear attractants in the park.

The Sunshine Coast is prime wildlife territory. Book a guided wildlife viewing tour for the best chance to spot whales, sea lions, bears, birds, and more.

While we’ve been off exploring, the Pointhouse has been very much alive.

For the past four weeks, our posts have followed Off Point through some extraordinary places along BC’s Central Coast. Meanwhile, back on Sargeant Bay, other families have been making the Pointhouse their own.

This summer, we’ve welcomed whole-home guests travelling from Bali, France, Germany and Florida, while Aerie, Studio ISO and the Annex have continued to host visitors and returning guests closer to home.

The name Off Point is a nod to the Pointhouse and the rocky point on which it stands. When the house is in the care of guests and we cast off to explore farther up the coast, we are quite literally “off point.”

Longer whole-Pointhouse stays have allowed us to undertake this much anticipated voyage while giving guests something equally special: time to settle into the house, cook and dine together, enjoy the waterfront and gardens, and experience the Lido Spa in complete privacy.

Next summer, we plan to prioritize a limited number of longer whole-home rentals, while preserving selected dates for our B&B guests. Perhaps the Pointhouse could become the setting for your family’s coastal chapter—and help make another adventure aboard Off Point possible.

Exploring the beaches of BC’s wild west coast.
From sheltered Pruth Bay, trails wind through the forest to broad sweeps of sand facing the open Pacific—driftwood scattered along the tideline, rocky headlands and wave after wave arriving from somewhere beyond the horizon.
Pruth Bay is also home to the Hakai Institute’s Calvert Island field station, where researchers study this remarkable meeting place of land, ocean and life.
Foggy mornings have followed us for most of our trip and reinforce the feelings of remoteness for BC’s vast coastline and offshore islands. We’ve really only scratched the surface.

Enjoyed a soak in pristine Eucott Hot Springs followed by a dip in the bay. Relatively sheltered shallow anchorage but strafed by strong winds on our visit. Scanned the sedge meadows surrounding the bay for wildlife. Boaters we met in Shearwater had had perfect viewing of a mother black bear and cub right from the hot springs. We saw only lots of gulls and crows feasting at low tide. Well worth the journey though for this special spot. Off to Pruth Bay on Calvert Island next on our way south again.
