About this property
Peaceful, Private, South Facing Sanctuary
Welcome to the Forest Ridge Sanctuary. Our guesthouse is ideal for someone who would like to retreat and get away from the stresses of our world at the moment in time. Just imaging a quiet space that is surround by trees, listen to the sound of the owls at night and reconnect with nature. It is very private but only 5 minutes from Ganges, close to Blackburn Lake and Salt Spring Conservancy. A network of trails are just outside the door.
The space
Hardwood floors, custom tiled shower stalls, modern interior. Very sunny location, with a large deck . Close to Ganges, yet very private.
A large living room with contemporary up scale leather furniture, opening to the deck with forest and valley views.
Bedrooms
The large master bedroom opens to the deck has a king bed and an en-suite bathroom. The two smaller rooms have a queen bed and share a bathroom.
