This is a beautiful, very private parcel of land and, except for the beach area, is mostly covered in old growth timber. The property rises gently from the beach east to the centre. Total rise is about 400 feet on the east side. The beach is mostly sand with a few rocky outcroppings in some areas. The property is located in a bay, which is one of only five in Cape Scott Park on the west shoreline. The east side of the property is only ¼ mile from Hansen Lagoon. Guise Bay is about 1½ miles to the north and Hansen Bay is approximately one mile to the south. Hansen Bay runs into Hansen Lagoon, which is due east of the property. Spectacular, private, pristine, unique - these all describe this property.

This is a rare freehold property within Cape Scott Provincial Park. Cape Scott Provincial Park is a 58 square mile tip of land approximately 30 miles (48 km) west of Port Hardy on the northwest tip of Vancouver Island. Cape Scott Park comprises 24,631 acres of land and 12,608 acres of foreshore and is one of the most beautiful parks in British Columbia. It is characterized by 39 miles (64 km) of scenic ocean frontage, including about 14 miles (23 km) of sandy beaches, running from Nissen Bight in the north to San Josef Bay in the south. Rocky promontories and headland intersperse wide sandy beaches. Nels Bight is a fine- textured white sand beach about a mile and a half long, and considered to be the most impressive of the nine beaches in the park. Trails that have been cut by the park administration make for hikes from four to nineteen miles long (one way). Mount St. Patrick at 1,383 feet is the highest point in the park. There are about 200 different species of plant life throughout the park varying from low lying swamps south of the Cape Settlement, to virgin timber at the higher levels. Eric Lake, 44 hectares (108 acres), is the largest body of fresh water in the park.

Northern Vancouver Island is ideal for the outdoor enthusiast. Cape Scott Provincial Park is ideal for hiking, and has sites for hike-in wilderness camping along the main trail. The Cape itself is attached to Vancouver Island by a sand bridge called Sandy Neck and hikers can climb a wooden plank road to the lighthouse for a spectacular view. The park is a paradise for kayakers with miles of beautiful white sandy beaches offering spectacular scenery. Several varieties of birds are found in the park including blue herons, spotted sandpiper, sandhill cranes, and trumpeter swans. Hansen Lagoon is also a resting area for migrating waterfowl – one of the best on the northwest coast. There is a fairly large population of deer and some elk in the area.

For the fly-fishermen, Dolly Varden, winter steelhead, cutthroat trout, some sockeye, coho, chinook and chum are all to be found in the Nahwitti River. The Stranby river offers great fishing for winter steelhead, Dolly Varden and fall coho.
