Island. The village amenities include the second oldest Co-Op general store in Canada, a hardware store, gas station,
pub, coffee shop and bakery. There is also a lending library, museum, medical clinic and marina. Bere point, 3 kms from

net lofts, working fish boats and net mending docks as well as Eagles, Mink, Herons and endless vistas are musts for
camera buffs and wildlife enthusiasts.
La Petite Maison is located on the water facing West, within an easy stroll (or ride on one of the two bikes that come
