Modern cabin on a sandy beach

This cabin was built in 2022, with the goal of connection in mind. We live in Fernie BC and have friends and family in Vancouver. It is a great meeting place in the middle. The cabin is inspired by New Zealand architecture as we have ties to NZ. We designed this home ourselves, from layout to furnishings and finishing. We hope you enjoy the aesthetics and comfort of the home as much as the gorgeous view.
