WELCOME TO RAVENSTONE !

RavenStone is situated near Secret Cove, on a steep slope , overlooking the Strait of Georgia, Thormamby and Texada Islands, with Vancouver Island in the distance. The acreage is populated with arbutus trees, ravens, hawks, eagles, deer, surrounded by nature, but only 40 kilometers west of the city of Vancouver, British Columbia.
