Have your own private island with recent history of exceptional investment return and even greater potential with upcoming Olympic Games in vicinity. It could also be developed into multiple nature retreats.

This exceptionally beautiful property comprising 16 acres of rocky bluffs, ravines, forested areas and wildflowers is located in the Strait of Georgia, 200 miles north of Seattle, Washington and 75 miles north of the US border.

Close to British Columbia's Sunshine Coast and part of the popular Gulf Islands, it boasts approximately one mile of waterfront. It is in the rapidly expanding and cultural Powell River area and is only 28 miles from magnificent Desolation Sound.

A ''National Geographic" get-away, with first-growth forests (never logged) of huge cedar and fir and unique stands of Juniper and Madrona including an impressive-sized Madrona. Two eagles' nests also grace the property.

Two charming log cabins with four-wheel access. Cabins (with hot tub) on a bluff above rocky shore with surf and tide pools and 200 degree view of open Strait of Georgia, glaciated Vancouver Island peaks and western sunsets.

Network of meandering walking trails, over mossy knolls and around geologic crevices, with clear views from all sides of the island. Long sandy beach. Oysters, clams, crab, diving and fishing from the bluffs.

It is remote, yet easily accessible by light-wheeled aircraft because of its connection at low tide to a larger island with an available airstrip. It may also be approached by ferry and road.

The tidal nature of the island allows for easy access several times a day for bringing on food and other supplies. The proximity of the larger island also provides the convenience of an amply supplied country general store which sells fresh meat and liquor.

World famous fishing and diving, warm tidal waters, unlimited oysters and other shellfish.
