On October 1st , Three Point Properties hosted the first Wild Coast Cottages block party: a wine and cheese bringing together cottage owners to get to know each other and meet their new neighbours! It was a beautiful, warm autumn evening in Port Renfrew and we had a great turnout. It was fantastic to watch the cottage owners connect with one another: one cottage owner showed up to the party with freshly caught crab, an impromptu bonfire was lit as the sun went down, and some neighbours enjoyed one another’s company so much so that they carried on past midnight!
As a developer, it is amazing to experience firsthand a development truly becoming a community. One cottage owner’s personal experience taking possession of his cottage this summer compelled him to write this poem about it. We couldn’t have said it better:
“Renfrew Revisited”
Of all beguiling neighbourhoods
None beats our cabin-in-the-woods.
Its modest beauty so disarming
It’s best described as truly charming.
With giant trees and surging seas
And silver salmon sure to please.
No prim Victoria – it’s West Coast savage,
You come here, you leave your baggage!
Here we can live our lives unfettered,
Our spirits buoyed, or bodies bettered.
Our burdened hearts once more set free,
Here in our woods we can just…be.
