SUNTREE GUEST COTTAGES :
    a Natural Getaway  on the Bella Coola River.

Your hosts: Stephen and Cheryl Waugh
We moved to the Bella Coola Valley in 2001 where we found
a little piece of heaven and we want to share it with the world. 
We are avid nature lovers and are constantly excited about
the natural activities that surround us in our new home. We
watch mountain goats, grizzly and black bears, deer, otters,
seals and especially eagles, right from the living room window. 

A river runs through it:
While nobody can actually own river riparian, the property boundary
of Suntree Cottages extends across the Bella Coola River. For that and
other reasons, we have been involved with a group dedicated to
protecting and enhancing the health of the river system. As our
land is rich with natural groundwater, we soon hope to enhance fisheries
habitat within our property by creating a riffle/glide/pool structured stream.
In its current state, the property has high fish habitat potential for coho
spawning and rearing (already evident in numbers on the lowest reach).                                                                                                                                                                                                       We have the power:
One unique thing about Suntree Cottages is that we generate our own hydro-electricity. Suntree has a Pelton Wheel
 turbine capable of producing as much as 18 Kilowatts of electricity during normal operating periods using the natural
 resource of a mountain stream. Learning to manage electricity has helped make living here a rewarding experience.
And yes, informational tours of the facility are offered at no charge.

It's just a dog-gone nice place: Tica was our 3-legged wonder dog, a North American-bred German Shepherd who was rescued by us from a shelter after having her front leg removed due to a run-in with an automobile. She is sadly missed June 2006. Kismet is a purebred European German Shepherd and the matriarch of the Suntree dog-team. Anouk, our shy and gentle soul, is Kismet's older brother who came to live with us after his owners moved out of the country in 2005. Bambi is the newest on the scene, a pretty little German Shepherd pup who keeps both Kismet and Anouk on their toes. All dogs are extremely friendly towards Suntree guests, particularly the canine type.
Pets are very welcome here, provided a few common-sense rules are observed. Please ask for details.
