Guest Book Quotes

"Magical Perch in the woods. We needed to vacate our home due to some water damage repairs being done and a friend took us to see The Perch, just 10 minutes from home. It was love at first sight. Perched amongst the trees was this beautiful and welcoming home away from home. Brent and Kathleen were wonderful hosts who assured that all of our needs were met with a clean and glowing, tastefully decorated interior with views of Oyster Bay and firewood ready for the wonderful fireplace. For our first night, we were provided with a stunning light show!!! Thunder, lightning, wind and hail, and we were snuggled in by the fire enjoying every minute of it. The kitchen was a joy to prepare our meals with large windows overlooking the great deck and down to the bay where we could watch the ebb and flow of the tides as well as the raptors and sea birds that frequent the area. This delightful get-away is only a short distance from the (famous) Skookumchuk Narrows to observe brave kayakers traversing extreme tides, and to Mount Daniel, a moderate hike from which the views of Madeira Park and Pender Harbour take one's breath away. We live in a very quiet neighborhood, but after 2 and 1/2 weeks at the Perch with its total solitude and silence, coming home was like moving to a busy city! Thank-you, Kathleen and Brent for sharing your haven with mere mortals. Contented guests!"
Doug & Ev

"It was honestly therapeutic listening to the seemingly millions of birds sing. I found myself sitting on the balcony literally staring into the wilderness for hours. It was much needed. I will 100% be returning!!"

"Beautifully and thoughtfully designed with wonderful views of the trees and the water. We had everything we needed and Kathleen and Brent were wonderful hosts. We had a wonderful stay and felt rested and refreshed leaving your place. It's so thoughtfully designed and the setting is stunning. It was our first trip with our daughter and we will always remember your beautiful perch in the woods!"

"Kathleen and Brent are the perfect hosts, and Moondance is the most immaculate, relaxing place to stay. We can't wait to return. You are truly doing a service by renting your beautiful home(s). Thank you for making us feel like welcome friends, and sharing your home with us!"

"A great place for R&R as well as outdoor activities such as fishing and hiking. A slice of heaven in nature. :)"

"Beautiful, modern cabin situated in the middle of the forest makes it feel like you are staying in a treehouse. The space is exactly as described, extremely private and has a well equipped kitchen. We loved how large, but cozy the space felt. Having a wood burning fireplace was also a real treat for a winter escape."

"My husband and I spent a wonderful weekend at The Perch and we had the most relaxing time. It had the most beautiful forest views through every window and the most perfectly designed interior. On a clear night you can see an abundance of stars and during the day, we saw eagles flying about as we sat on the patio. It was a space that made you appreciate the solitude and beauty of nature."

"Kathleen was very easy to communicate with. Checking in and out was a breeze. The cabin was spotless and the kitchen was well equipped. Kathleen's well thought out cabin is truly a getaway gem."

"This place is gorgeous! It's absolutely isolated and wonderful for a romantic retreat or fun weekend with friends. The Perch, which is the cabin I stayed in, is quite modern and spacious. There is wall art everywhere and the views are stunning. Kitchen is fully equipped and the bbq works great."

"Great large space. Wood burning fireplace. An Excellent find. Everything about this place is perfect. Won't change a thing!!"

"The Perch was a perfect place to stay for a romantic few days with my wife. The surroundings are beautiful, the Perch is modern and beautifully decorated. The host incredibly welcoming."

"My best rental experience since ever! I will re-visit once I have time! Thank you!"

"Was beyond my expectation! Instructions on how to get there and key retrieval was given weeks before and were very clear. No issues at all. The cabin was well kept and clean. Fireplace with endless wood supplied. Literally just steps away from the water with a breathtaking view. Full kitchen at our disposal. Only stayed 2 nights but wish I could've stayed longer! Will definitely be back again. I highly recommend."

"My husband and I stayed in the cabin for my 40th Birthday and let me tell you, I have no words to truly describe just how beautiful and serene this place was! The only sounds to be heard were nature, and that is exactly what we were looking for. We marveled at the peaceful and gorgeous surroundings constantly and were very sad we had to leave. Kathleen and Brent were amazing hosts and had literally anything you could think of available at the cabin, even 4 pairs of rain boots to go down by the fjord if you brought your family with you! Very thoughtful. The cabin was also absolutely stunning in every way as well. I would highly recommend this place to anyone I know looking for a quiet, secluded getaway as a couple or a family. One warning to elderly or people who have a hard time getting around, the path leading down to the cabin is a little steep so it would be hard to bring suitcases down. The Perch (the other available cabin on this property, which is beautifully modern) would be a better bet for you in that case and The Perch is also wheelchair accessible, which the cabin is not. Thanks again Kathleen & Brent for the truly wonderful experience we had at this remarkably magical place. It was more than we could have asked for."

"Lovely cabin with a great view, very private. Nestled in the trees, this cabin is just steps away from the water. I enjoyed sitting in the living room watching the wind blow through the trees while watching the birds on the water. The kitchen had everything we needed to make our own meals. There is lots to see in the area and some great hiking trails. I suggest Pender Hill to get a great view of the area. The Cabin is a fantastic retreat, and the visitor well provided for. The porch is lovely, surrounded by trees with a view of tidal waters and the mountain. The entire experience was one of beauty and serenity - birds all around in the morning, a blanket of stars above at night, easy-to-build fires, luxurious candlelit baths in the loft bedroom, and everything clean and well maintained. Very highly recommended!"

"The perfect, relaxing staycation! Such a beautiful spot! Quiet, cozy cabin with everything you could need, tucked away in a bay with eagles hunting and fish jumping. This was our second time visiting and we will no doubt be back. Fireplace is a much welcomed touch for the cooler months. Full kitchen is great so you can hide out and relax, stay in. But be sure to check out the local restaurant spots and all of the walks in the area. Francis Point was spectacular. Kathleen is a fantastic host. Would not hesitate to recommend to others! Cheers."

"We stayed at Moondance Cabin for a few days in September, and the photos simply don't do it justice. It's beautiful, has lots of space for relaxing, and has everything you need for long or short stays. Highly recommend."

"This was a perfect escape for the weekend! The location is nice and secluded and just steps from the water. It was so peaceful - we wish we could have stayed longer!"

"Gorgeous and Serene. The location of the cabin is fantastic - you can literally walk down to the water (although there's rock and mud rather than sand at the edge). The cabin itself is very well maintained and clean, and provided exactly what we were looking for in a getaway spot. The folks who maintain it were easy to get in touch with and are communicative without being remotely intrusive, which is perfect. Definitely recommended for anyone looking for a place just to get away and be away from civilization without actually being out in the rough."

"The Perfect Retreat. This is a wonderful and spacious cabin in a beautiful location. It is well appointed with comfortable furniture, lovely lighting, and so much beautiful west coast art. And when the sparkling sun reflects off the water at high tides the moon mobile in the living room really does dance. It's mesmerizing. And the bathtub very comfortably fits two! If you can tear yourself away from the deck, there are great hikes in the area, and Ruby Lake is also very pleasant. The hosts were lovely and communication was excellent. The village of Madeira Park is a very short drive away, and is very cute. This is a wonderful place."

"Kathleen's cabin was lovely! We had an amazing relaxing time for our 5 day stay. She was quick to respond and was lenient about check in/check out timing. The cabin had basically everything you would need but if you're a chef like me I would suggest bringing your must need/favourite items, which I usually do for our Airbnb stays. The view was fantastic and the privacy was 10/10. If you're wanting complete privacy and seclusion this place is perfect! I would definitely recommend to friends and anyone interested."
Chelsey

"This place is amazing. Stylish cabin, comfy bed, and overall a great place to relax! The water is only a few steps from the cabin. Enjoyed sitting by the water on a foggy October morning; it's a wonderful place to meditate and listen to all the birds and wildlife. And stargazing at night, wow. Kathleen was a perfect host, very helpful, responded quickly. Hope to visit again soon!"

"What a place! Very quiet, very comfy living space, and very clean. Kathleen was a responsive host and we would be happy to come back anytime of year!"

"My partner and I stayed in the Moon Dance Cabin and it was breathtakingly beautiful. Cabin was private and quiet and the view was gorgeous. Very peaceful and exactly what we needed to wind down for a few days. Very clean and owners are very communicative without being too much. We definitely plan to go back."

"We liked that the cabin was pretty well isolated, never saw another person in three days, and the cabin was spacious and self sufficient with a very good kitchen. The only downside was the parking was about 100 yards up hill, which made getting the suit case and food a task for a couple of seniors. (Suggestion from Kathleen: next time please try The Perch offering you what you enjoyed about The Cabin, without the unintended / unwelcome work out.)"

"This little bit of paradise was quiet, clean and cozy. A great getaway!"

"Phenomenal property with an amazing view. Attention to detail throughout was excellent. The cabin was very well appointed. The artwork made it feel so warm and beautiful. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen. The instructions were quite clear. This is our second stay here and we will most likely return."

"Happy New Years Kathleen, Brent, Dianne and to everyone who stays at this magical place. We slept a lot thanks to jetlag from our Germany trip. It helps that it's so great here. Visit #9 and still counting!!"
John & Henrik

"Peaceful and serene our time at Moon Dance was good medicine for the soul. When we arrived without knowing which CD was loaded I turned on the stereo and on came 'Don't let me down' by the Beatles. I knew right away this was a sign of a great weekend ahead... and indeed it was."

Don & Jean

"A beautiful, relaxing getaway in the wood - it felt like we were worlds away from the big city. Bathtub in the bedroom... Genius! We definitely look forward to returning."

Of quietude and natural beauty

To a standstill in the pleasure of serenity"

We arrived in a snowstorm and enjoyed the winter wonderland and the seclusion we needed for resting and writing."

Always looked forward to late afternoon sun streaming into The Cabin all cozy and warm with the fire going. Great place to unwind from city life. Next time we're going to try The Perch which also looks pretty cool."

Zach, Brian, Aedan & Greer

This is what we needed, a beautiful, very quiet and magic place and some time to get caght up with each other and away from the stress of children etc and back to the essentials of love and spending time together.

Avital, Liby, Darcy & Marisa

"Thank-you for the great mini vacation. We really enjoyed the peaceful quiet and serenity here."
Ed & Lee

"How do you describe twelve days spent in a paradise called Moon Dance. Surrounded by tall pines, the ebb and flow of tides and a mild climate, we simply relaxed, read and listened to music and to the birds gossip about oysters. We watched the slugs race to the top of the stone path as we gathered ripe huckleberries for early morning pancakes. We will miss Moon Dance but the memories will be with us for a very long time."

"What a beautiful week it's been in this amazing quiet place. We enjoyed walks, listening to ducks laugh, fishing, catching nothing and eating salmon from town and having nothing to do. Pure bliss and amazing memories for our honeymoon."
Ryan & Christa

"Another wonderful stay at Moon Dance. We usually stay at The Perch so The Cabin was like coming back to an old friend - with nothing to do but watch the water move and listen to the sounds of nature."
Susan & Tony

"What started out as a last-minute getaway turned into our second honeymoon! Moon Dance was the cherry on the cake of our trip to B.C. We have travelled the world and never had a more peaceful & magical experience. This place is a slice of heaven."
Barbara & Josh

"There is absolutely no better way to relax than to stay at a cabin in a rainstorm with a warm fire and a glass (or two) of wine! In the morning we would watch the birds feeding on the water, very serene and peaceful. It probably added two more years to our lives."

Thanks for the fresh air and coziness!"

Michelle & Dave

"I am here by myself on a "Mommy" getaway and that's exactly what it has been. I have been calm and relaxed since the minute I opened the door. I tubbed, had a fire, cooked, drank champagne, explored, photographed, read, danced and remembered myself... Thank you Perch and Oyster Bay for an amazing time. I have already told a few other Mama's and couples. This place is tranquil, the art beautiful, the view spectacular and it will forever stay in my heart. Until the next time..."
Corey

"The Perch helped time and schedules slip away during our marvelous stay. We loved the views, the natural setting, the tub... the effect is like being in a beautifully designed, luxurious tree house sharing space and time with the ravens, seagulls and bald eagles. Shannon loved the painting above the fireplace! Great memories of a much needed getaway! The kids gave it a 5 star rating!"

The Real Housewifes of Vancouver at The Secret Cove Resort). All in all just what we needed, thanks."

We loved listening to the rain, hearing a distant raven calling, enjoyed a beautiful walk through the forest to Skookumchuk Rapids (enveloped in a curtain of green!) and spent much needed time relaxing and re-connecting. Thank-you for sharing this beautiful spot. Nick had no regrets choosing this getaway for his 40th instead of having a party."
Nick & Lisa

"Second time here and this time as a married couple instead of a 'getting to know each other' couple. Equally as peaceful, with big trees, good meals, good music and good company. This is the best stocked kitchen in any cabin that we have ever stayed at which is many. We'll be back."
Andrew & Margot

The artist gift certificates were a great touch."

Lots of bird life in the bay. Fantastic place - set a new standard!"

"Breathtaking, cozy, modern & quiet and wonderful for a small family to have some great bonding time. We had lots of laughs and great food while being so relaxed."
Crystal, Pete, Keenan & Hilton, Kelowna

"The Perch is certainly a stunning accommodation in an even more stunning location. I love the flora and fauna thriving on the property. My mother and her husband are big William Allister appreciators."
Lance

"Cleansing. Light, mists raising our spirit. Bathed, purified. Drizzle and meditative drops on foliage, while frogs sing percussion, perched in and above, we nestle."
Nette, Vancouver

"Beautiful place and setting! We really had an enjoyable and relaxing time."
Jon & Carin, Smithers

Laura, Dan & Justin, Vancouver/Montreal

"As an '80s pop-icon once sung, "Ooh, heaven is a place on earth!" She must have been fortuitous enough to know of "The Perch" 30 years before we arrived! We've had a fantastic 10 days of fun in the sun and showers, cooking great meals, building big log fires, soaking in the tub and finding our 100th Cache in Canada (check out geocaching.com to join in the fun). Thanks for re-arranging our visit last minute when we were delayed by Eyjafjallajokull Volcano closing UK airspace for almost a week!"
Rich & Lou, London, UK

"We came for our honeymoon and I can't imagine a more perfect, romantic place to celebrate our love. So beautiful and relaxing. Will definitely come back!"
Diane & Ryan, Toronto

"We could not have asked for a better retreat. Thank you for everything."
Gabriel & Chana, Toronto

"What a beautiful spot, you feel at one with nature. We enjoyed it so much and will be back for more. Love the design of this cottage, we were very impressed. Hiking trails are breathtaking and Skookumchuck Narrows is amazing. You can be visited by hummingbirds, deer, beautiful birds, a bear and an eagle. Thanks again."
Paul & Victoria, New Westminster

"A little getaway for a mom and her two daughters. We left the men and children at home and enjoyed the beautiful PEACE of The Perch. Bubbly on the patio, feeding peanuts to our little squirrel buddy, fireside laughs and even a jellyfish encounter at the water. We had a blast and enjoyed every moment."
Erin, Lindsay & Connie

"You were right - this is truly an awesome place. I will definitely be back some day. We three loved every moment. There was no way of leaving to go out for dinner. The Perch is such a delight to all our senses - Thank-you!"
Dawna, Vancouver

"For us the ultimate paradise! We simply settle into The Perch and enjoy every minute of our time here. Being here has become our new summer ritual - one that fives us immense pleasure year after year. Kathleen & Brent... a stroke of creative genius - our profound thanks with much love,"
Joan & Morley, Calgary

"What a joy to experience the beauty within and without (outside) The Perch. You have been so attentive to all the details of creating a perfect hideaway. As an artist I am inspired by the wonderful art pieces... thank you so very much."
Sanna, Vancouver

"Thank you very much! The Perch was perfect, beautiful and brought us into nature. We were up here for a wedding and couldn't have picked a better location. We will be back to sit in that tub and spend cozy nights near the fire place! Thank-you, truly a lovely cabin."
Francisco & Cory, Alicia & Shaun

"Incredible! What a fabulous retreat. The architecture and art work are amazing. Thank you for sharing. Love the gardens."
Lori & Paul, Oshawa

"What a relaxing, most wonderful way to spend our honeymoon.

We look forward to trips back to The Sunshine Coast for anniversaries. Thank you for a wonderful stay!"
Jodi & Jim, Madison, Wisconsin

"Thank you for this tranquil retreat. We will miss the luxury of abundant space, green views and the deep sleep that follows a soak in a deep tub. We had a memorable meal at Feastro in Davis Bay and look forward to lazily grazing our way back down to Langdale having adopted a slower pace."
Randi & Tim, Vancouver, B.C.

"The Perch - a perfect getaway for our 4th anniversary. We couldn't have asked for a more glorious relaxation. Truly loved this enchanting place. We'll be back."
Rob & Maribel, Burnaby, B.C.

"Thank you for sharing The Perch with us! It's a beautiful house, perfect amount of space inside & out! The surrounds are so peaceful. We will most certainly come and want to stay here again. A perfect getaway from the city and yet not too far."
Matt & Sarah, Vancouver, B.C.

"Wonderful. Thank-you!"
Jen & Anders, New Westminster, B.C.

"Fantastic vacation home... one of the nicest we've ever stayed at. We loved the local hikes and the food. We hope to return someday."
Rick & Cynthia, Carlton, Oregon

"The location, the layout, the bath, the fireplace, the view, the smells and sounds are only a few of the best things about this place. We came, we conquered Mt. Daniel (no easy feat), scared off a bear cub looking for food in the trash (good thing they're bear proof) and saved a golden crown kinglet (look it up in the "Birds of Coastal BC" book in the entertainment unit) that flew into the window and became dazed. We even saw a deer hopping about as if it's legs were made of springs. Aaah... what an awesome week, but it's time to go now. Thanks!"
Sally & Charles, Maple Ridge, B.C.

"Wonderful again!!! See you next time."
Dave & Pascal, Vancouver, B.C.

"Cabin was well equipped and beautiful, thank-you."
Farfad & Daniela

"When relatives offered to look after our 10 month old daughter so we could have a relaxing weekend together, we jumped at the chance. We searched everywhere looking for somewhere peaceful, quiet, stress free & beautiful and we found just what we were looking for here! This place is perfect! Thank you for renewing the spirits of two tired first time parents."
Mel & Geoff, Coquitlam, B.C.

"We are both amazed at the details and how we felt so at home. This was our 1st anniversary celebration and can't think of a better way to have spent quiet time away together. Thank you so much."

Sandra, Vancouver

"What an amazing place, we really appreciated every attention to detail, you guys have truly thought of everything!! We hope to be back soon!! Saw a bear across the bay - wow!"
Megan & Kent, Vancouver

"The view is heavenly, the cabin fittings and conveniences divine. (I had one of the best showers of my life here!) The beds were comfy, the tub charming. We wrote and read and munched, sang and danced our weekend away. I have never seen such a dramatic high and low tide as at Oyster Bay. We loved the Ray Charles CD and of course listened to Van Morrison's "Moon Dance". Your sound system is incredible. Listening to my CD's here was a revelation. We felt blessed and grateful to have access to a place like this."
Glen, Parm & Manpe, Vancouver

"The big red chair is so awesome! The sound system is so great. We loved your cabin. Our family had a cozy, mystical stay."

"Loved it immensely and will be back for another "working holiday" very soon!!"
Jutta, Germany

"This is our third trip. First time in the summer, though. We still managed to use the stove on the rainy days. Again we had a fantastic, relaxing time. Bringing the canoe along was well worth the effort."
Brian, Paula, Lauren & Isaac, Maple Ridge, B.C.

"A lovely, tranquil spot. Wonderfully relaxing. It is a gorgeous place and just what I was looking for."
Gail, West Vancouver

Hein, Claire, Jasper & Cloe, Calgary

"Thank you for sharing this wonderful cabin with us. Delightful and the weather was superb."
Dana & Barry, Calgary

"We had a great experience and amazing weather to go with it and loved waking up in the morning to absolute silence and eating breakfast on the porch with the bay as smooth as glass beside us. Thanks!"
G & A, Victoria

"It was like we dreamed this cabin to build for ourselves, with a mountain, water and our view. Our second day it rained but with the good music and reading we enjoyed simply being here. Heaven on earth!"
Pat & Wayne, Calgary & Nanaimo

"My experience booking vacation rentals has been disappointing until Moon Dance. The pictures on the website don't do it justice. It's the perfect couple get-away and spotless. We'll be back!"
Don & Maureen, Richmond

"Short stay but memorable nonetheless. Peaceful and serene it sure beats the city life - a home away from home. We're coming back."
Harvey & Todd, Vancouver

"Fabulous place, so quiet and relaxing. We love it."
Bridget & Michel, Burnaby

"As we approached "Moon Dance" with the roadway narrowing at each turn, our anticipation increased. We automatically lowered our voices to whisper in awe of the beautiful setting, more private than expected. As our visit passed we gradually realized how much thought, time & effort went into enhancing/creating such a paradise... "
Karen & Henri, Calgary

"Wow! This has been a great escape - and we've never had so much fun getting stuck in the mud. Thank-you for all the memories."

Breann & Ian

"Take all the comments before ours and put them in one word 'FANTASTIC.'"
Lorne & Marjorie, White Rock, B.C.

"Beautiful spot - especially loved our 'snow day' when the car wouldn't make it up the drive. Had a nice walk and then lit a cozy fire. We had an early morning hike to Skookumchuk this morning then back to reality."
Sue & Brad, Calgary, Alberta

"Moon Dance is everything we hoped for and more. The location, the scenery, the water, the trees, the perch, the attention to detail, all the special little things with which you have created an ultimate west coast retreat. My new bride and I enjoyed this so much. We'll be back to sample each season here."
Rob & Christine, Tsawwassen, B.C.

"Adriana suggested that we come up here for Valentine's Day, seeing as we'd enjoyed our honeymoon at the Cabin so much. It is absolutely wonderful here! The architectural design, the beautiful wood everywhere, the gorgeous deck w/view, and (what really sets your properties apart for me), the beautiful art throughout. You've put as much thought, time, effort & heart into these 'homes-away-from-home' it's just beautiful here. We're already making plans to come back in summer! Cheers,"
Michael & Adriana

"Our stay at The Perch was just what we needed! We enjoyed the warmth from the wood burning fireplace and the beautiful nature surrounding us. Went on a great hike to see the Skookumchuk rapids!"
Kayleigh & Jordan, Maple Ridge, B.C.

"What a fantastic little cabin - a world away from London spent with wonderful friends. An icy morning swim, a beautiful run - if anything... just too short."

Harvey & Marg, Penticton, B.C.

"We both feel very relaxed after our stay in your beautiful home. The quiet is good to refresh the mind and has helped us in our plans for the future. A home away from home! We may well be back next year and will stay longer as it never seems enough. Thank you again and best wishes."
Sue & Don, Alnwick, Northumberland, U.K.

"We had a wonderful time here away from the city life we are used to. We loved being able to relax and be surrounded by such beauty. We both agree it was the perfect spot to spend our first week being married. Thank you."

"Back again! Home from home, we hope to return... again. Thank you,"
Sue & Don, Alnwick, Northumberland, U.K.

Tago & AnaRita, Vancouver, B.C. & Portugal

"What a wonderful place to celebrate our second wedding anniversary! We loved the beautiful calm atmosphere and the gorgeous, modern architecture. The BBQ and the DVD player are an awesome touch. We enjoyed the freedom of big open windows that still maintain our privacy."
Adrian & Amber, Mission, B.C.

"So perfect, exactly what I was hoping for in celebration of ten years of marriage. I hope we can come back. With gratitude,"

Annie

"Really a wonderful place to relax. Enjoyed every moment, including the barbeque. Your paintings are great but the whole place is a "masterpiece". You must have had a super contractor. Now I want to go home and re-do my kitchen."

Jutta, Germany

"Yet another re-juvenating stay on top of The Perch. To promise another visit, hopefully sooner than later. At all points, the Feng Shuai works, from the entrance to the property down to the water. Thanks Kathleen & Brent for your so thoughtful attention to all details, not to mention the superb choices of all works of art singing from the walls. This place of peace and brilliance will keep us tuned until our next time."
Morley & Joan, Calgary, Alberta

"A lovely tenth anniversary weekend for us, no kids!! And a beautiful oasis in the woods that I'm not redesigning in my mind. It's perfect. We'll return again."
Moe & Aaron

"Just a quick note to thank you for a lovely few days! We really enjoyed our stay!! Like so many who have stayed before us, from the moment you walk in you feel so relaxed and comfortable. I thoroughly enjoyed cooking in the kitchen...we ate in except for one lunch at the pub in Garden Bay where we rented a kayak for Doug through Alpha Adventures. The trek to the water with the kayaks was breathtaking...literally! LOL We certainly got some exercise! We saw so many jelly fish in the water...that was a surprise!! Incentive to stay in the kayak for sure!! We loved our paddling...saw deer...wonderful birds...it was a most pleasant trip!! We met Motoko...her gallery is....inspiring. She is so wonderful. Had to come home with a print!! Will remind us of the time spent at The Perch and encourage a return visit!! Thank you so much!"
Linda & Doug

"A quick note to say that we had a truly wonderful experience at The Perch, it was the perfect place to unwind. You have thought of everything necessary to accommodate your guests and allow for them to quickly feel relaxed and 'at home'. We are both employed at UBC and we will certainly recommend The Perch to our colleagues and friends. Well done on the construction and decor and thanks for providing a great service in a time when the finer details are often missing. Best wishes,"

Hans & Margo, Vancouver, B.C.

"Thanks for the getaway. We had fun exploring the area and enjoyed the views at Skookumchuck and Smuggler's Cove parks. Loved the surround sound and TV channels and music, which is more important than TV out here. The silence was perfect as we enjoyed what seemed to be an aviary jamboree with countless birds having an intense conference. Loved the art and noted they came from some of the galleries we visited. The fireplace & tub were essential & perfect. Thanks for making our first anniversary so awesome."
Jan & Ben, White Rock, B.C.

On my birthday we went on the Slo Cat Tour with such a friendly guide then the rest of the day at the spa in Secret Cove Resort - what an experience. We all loved the tub.

"Wonderful cabin. Serene, peaceful & beautiful!!"

Mark

"An incredibly beautiful house and location. Website doesn't do it justice. It's the most nicely outfitted cabin we have ever been in. Bring cloths & food and you never have to leave which is our idea of heaven. Sitting outside on the porch wrapped in a blanket with a Bailey's & coffee in hand is meditation at it's best. We'll definitely be back!"

Thank-you for the exquisite attention to detail you put into Moon Dance Perch."
Michael & Jennifer, Vancouver, B.C.

"Stunning. The architecture, the surrounding nature, the peace - just the romance and relaxation we were looking for. We'll be back."

Maddie, Vancouver, B.C.

"What a great place - beautiful pictures on the wall and through the windows as well. We are SO pleased this is an 'accessible' building. All 3 of us were able to enjoy it as a family. We wanted for nothing - well equipped kitchen - great to have good wine glasses & nice dishes to eat from. It was thoughtful of Brent to add the crushed rock for Madeline's wheelchair. It was useful."
Deborah, Vancouver, B.C.

"Twas the perfect getaway for us. You haven't forgotten a thing to make our stay comfy. The cabin was nicer than we imagined... Dreamy. Thank you."
Jackie & Gary, Vancouver & Michigan

"This place is fantastic! More than our expectation. We'll definitely come back. It's more than a place to stay, it's a home - lovely & cozy. The contrast between outside nature and inside modern art atmosphere makes this house more attractive & unique. Wonderful experience. Thank-you for everything."
Wei & Rain, Vancouver, B.C.

"We just got off the ferry and into the office. I simply had to send you guys a note - BRAVO!! The Perch is perfect. Stunning. Love the architecture, the location was pin drop quiet.

We each had our answers... greatest place, etc, etc. The Calgary folks responded: "Shhh - don't tell anyone." But we had one up on all of them. We were staying at Moon Dance Cabin! You know the rest - as everyone else has written. What a wonderful memory for our family. Thank you!"

In the first ten minutes I set off the fire alarm and burnt my fingers trying to light the fire - all done in a state of total sobriety and proving I have much to learn in the next fifty years. Saw 'The Bear', listened to the coyotes and dreamt of the Raven who pushed his mind through and pulled his body after. A magical place for a moondance with my Spanish Lady - thank-you!"

"That Night at Moondance Perch.
That night we sat under a river of stars,
Then swam skyward through the earthly waterweed of hemlock and cedar,
To touch their icy brilliance.
Before the Dawn wiped away their glitter,
We floated down that celestial waterway,
Through the earthly tangle of dreams,
Back home to Moondance Perch."

"Absolutely breathtaking vacation spot! We couldn't have picked a more beautiful, serene and private location for our honeymoon. The Perch has all the commodities you could possibly want. The soaker tub and fireplace made for a romantic few days. We enjoyed ourselves so much we cancelled work to stay just one more night. It was a treat to see the bear and eagles early morning on the bay. We'll be sure to recommend The Perch to friends and hope to return for our anniversary. Thanks for creating special memories for us."

We had an absolutely hilarious time getting stuck in the tidal flats when the tide was out. My partner Cord ended up losing his boot and I was laughing so hard it took me about 20 minutes to move 2 feet. Pathetic city slickers! Anyway, will let our friends know how fabulous your place is and we look forward to another trip there in the future."
