Planning a trip to Vancouver Island this summer. Got Waggoner's, but it is
aimed at live aboard cruising vessels. Thing if Ganges on Salt Spring and
Gabriola Island B&B's for a few nights, before heading to Tolfino and
Campbell River and Tahsis. Any suggestions for resonable B&B's? The
$120-150 / night range. And close enough to mooring sites. 21' boat.
A little late to this thread, and I don't know what their price range
is, but I can recommend the following lodge and breakfast. From there
you can cruise to the other Gulf islands or San Juan islands, or trailer
up and head overland to Tofino.

Even just stopping for a short visit is interesting; Shirley, the
proprietress, maintains the expansive garden, cooks a great pancake
breakfast, and is full of stories, one of her favorites being how they
got the hull of a 41' sailboat (sans keel) hanging from the living room
ceiling.

Also, very good crabbing in Genoa Bay, if you like Dungeness.
