Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2002
We work in the film industry and have four children, 2 teenage boys & 2 little girls. Since my husband cannot always be on Island, our cabin has provided me with a safe & fun place to be with my kids, the Island always has so many fun events happening.
Why the Owner Chose Hornby Island
We loved the large, sunny property & ocean view and Hornby has always been our favorite Island out of all the Gulf Islands.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
Looking at the ocean (you never get tired of that!), my kids can run free, everything is close enough to bike to. The Island always has interesting, fun things to do.
