Blue Door Cottage is just two short blocks from Galleon Beach, for swimming, beach combing and Hornby's most spectacular sunsets. Blue Door Cottage has a modern, well-equipped kitchen with a full-size fridge and stove, plus microwave, coffee maker and more. The living room features a glass-front wood stove (firewood provided), a stereo CD player, TV with VCR for videos and a small office/play area with built-in desk. Electric baseboard heaters are located throughout the cottage. There are two bedrooms – one with a double bed and one with a single. The large living room couch also folds out to serve as a very comfortable queen-size bed. The deck is partially covered and has lots of room for a festive barbecue. In the back yard is a picnic table amid a grove of maple, shore pine and cherry trees. Blue Door is surrounded by lovely free-form garden beds with flowering shrubs, fragrant herbs, and beyond that half an acre of naturally landscaped rolling grassland. Trees around the perimeter of the lot provide plenty of privacy.

A special feature is the Japanese winding stairway, leading to two bright and charming lofts. Kids love it! The larger loft sleeps two and the smaller sleeps one.

Raven Call Cottage:
Ravens Call Cottage has a modern, well-equipped kitchen with a full-size fridge and stove, plus microwave, coffee maker and more. Our water is fresh and pure. The full bathroom has sparkling new fixtures.

Each of the two bedrooms has a comfortable queen-size bed –- one with a very high quality orthopedic mattress especially for someone with back problems.

Galleon Beach Getaway is a perfect year-round destination. You can discover Hornby's spectacular wildflowers in the spring, bask on our beaches in the summer, hike or bike the network of trails in our mild autumn weather and enjoy cozy evenings around the wood stove in the winter. You'll see why Hornby is known as "the jewel of the Gulf Islands".
