An absolute MUST go for Book Lovers of all ages. Easily spent over an hour in here and would’ve spent many more had it not been for impatient kids. Loved all the unique and quirky corners and surprise finds. Left will nearly a dozen books (only because I couldn’t carry anymore)... I’ll be back.

Nice way to spend an afternoon on the lake thinking back in time how the Sicamous use to transport cargo and people hundreds of years ago, and if you are thinking of getting married, what a beautiful ship to have it on, it has a working kitchen, and great scenery for pictures.
