Spring at The Station

We had a great time at The Station. A great place to cook and rest after playing and exploring the island. Lovely to be right on the Galloping Goose trail. Thanks Laura and Stephen for being great hosts. Jane and family!

Station House aptly named

Situated right by the Galloping Goose Trail, this quiet accommodation’s name was inspired by the local fire station. You can ask the friendly hosts for a tour of the vintage fire trucks!

Hiker’s paradise

This was a fantastic getaway spot. It has direct walk-out-the-door access to the Galloping Goose trail and then a short ~2 km walk to a trailhead for the dozens of networked trails in the neighbouring regional parks. Once off the main trail I walked ~4 hours without seeing anyone. The place is spotless and very modern, with lots of crafty woodwork done by the owner. The kitchen is fantastic and well supplied with the basics. Most importantly, it is QUIET. No road noise, no neighbour noise… just the wind blowing outside. A perfect retreat.
