Ask a questionAbout Doug Bams
Doug and Troy are semi retired, living the dream on this beautiful waterfront property. We have lived in the Comox Valley since 1984, raised three children here and been involved in several business ventures. We are avid skiers, love to travel, and we spend lots of time on the water. Every season here in the Comox Valley brings new adventures - would truly not want to live any other place.
Doug Bams purchased this Cottage in 2007
Why Doug Bams chose Fanny Bay
We bought this property because there is nothing like it anywhere else in the Comox Valley, From its unique setting on the end of a point, facing due west even though we are on the eastern side of Vancouver Island. This area was the summer home for K'omox first nations for thousands of years, there are signs still of their times here such as the middens all along the beach. The trees on the property are ancient, hundreds of years old, something you rarely find left on property anymore and they tend to harbor a lot of wildlife. We are also on one of the few walk on beaches found in the valley, most are boulders or cliff top which makes access more difficult. The main home is truly unique - I describe it as a beach cabin on steroids. We are just finishing a major renovation and moved back into it in January, after spending half a year in the cottage.
What makes this Cottage unique
Swimmable walk on beach. Quiet - away from highway noise and light pollution. Private - at end of dead end road and property beside us is a park. Close to so many adventure options like skiing, hiking, diving and boating. Sitting by the bay as the sun goes down, listening to the birds and sea lions, with a glass of ________ in ones hand, it needs to be experienced. The cottage is a unique place to come to get away from the stresses of life, unwind and get back to nature, in all its beauty. Whether it is skiing, exploring, biking or swimming - every day at the bay is a great day.
