Welcome to the Home of the Stephensons

We are located on Gabriola Island, one of the Gulf Islands, situated between Vancouver, British Columbia and Vancouver Island. It lies about 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) east of Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, to which it is linked by a 20-minute ferry trip from Nanaimo harbour. It has a land area of about 57.6 square kilometres (22.2 sq mi) and a resident population of slightly more than 4,500.

This site shows our Guest Cottage, named by our children as "The PuddingHouse" because of its color scheme - chocolate on some walls, butterscotch on others. The site is meant to show the amenities, location, our resident "critters" and some of the surrounding area. Feel free to browse the pages and photographs included.
