SHOWIN' BOWEN

Need a weekender but don’t feel like spending half of it in the car?

Go short-haul at Bowen Island’s new Eco-Shed.

Author (and former Outside magazine editor) James Glave has built the modern, 280 square-foot green getaway with your petite carbon footprint in mind. A private garden (and resident black bunny), wood-burning fireplace, Energy Star appliances, and heated concrete floors will have both you and your conscience resting comfortably.

From $175. View pictures and availability at www.eco-shed.ca
