Getting There...

Getting to Dancing Light Cottage:

FROM FULFORD HARBOUR FERRY:

Drive off the ferry at Fulford and go up the hill out of the village. Take the first turning right onto Beaver Point Road(sign-posted for Ruckle Provincial Park). Drive along for 4.2 km, then take a left-hand turn onto Bulman Road which is situated just after a yellow '30km/windy road' signpost, at the top of a small hill. Beaver Point Road turns to the right at this point & Bulman Road is on the left .(it is easy to miss the turning!)

201, Dancing Light Cottage is the 3rd driveway on the right; drive to the top of the driveway, make a U-turn & the cottage is situated straight ahead. Park to the right, marked 'cottage parking'.

FROM LONG HARBOUR FERRY:

If reaching the island from the mainland via the Long Harbour ferry(see map above), follow signs to Fulford Harbour via Ganges & stay on the main road through the town towards Fulford (14 km). Just before the road dips down into Fulford Harbour take a left-hand turn onto Beaver Point Road (sign-posted for Ruckle Provincial Park). See paragraph above for directions to cottage from here.
