Seido-En is a magical, restorative and contemplative sanctuary that deeply supported our desire to disentangle ourselves from the claims of our familiar urban life. We found Wendy to be incredibly helpful and responsive to any of our needs. The location afforded a lot of privacy with convenient access to the Salish Sea via a short 15 minute hike, which we enjoyed on an almost daily basis. The place itself has a very maternal, calming quality that we found deeply comforting and serene. The kitchen is well equipped, so we were able to be entirely self-sufficient and never needed to leave to eat out. We highly recommend anyone to consider staying at Seido-en.
Seido-en felt like living in a Japanese shrine, both meticulously built and executed in a perfectionist manner. Good starting point for exploring the island with food, drinks, ferry, hikes, beaches all nearby. Outdoor shower and hot tub complement the beautiful old growth trees. A lovely time for two weeks.
