Vancouver Island is full of beautiful old-growth forests, waterfalls, trails and wildlife. We really enjoyed our quick trip to Ucleulet over Summer Solstice 2011. Loved the Ukeedogs — I had to have soup but it was fantastic too — also loved the beaches, and when we woke up one morning there was a cute pair of deer hanging out by the boats.
