Forest Retreat

This island home off the coast of Victoria is nestled deep in the forest, with sweeping views of blue water. The guest house and “game shack” pictured here are two of multiple buildings connected by wooden boardwalks, which combine with floor-to-ceiling windows and an all-wood interior to blur the boundary between indoors and outdoors.
