LET'S CONNECT

The thing about taking risks is that it likely will never make sense to anyone else but you. At age 28 we took the leap of faith and bought land to build something so special that it could be enjoyed by many and be an investment for our future. It was 2021 and we knew we wanted to bring a space to life that was ‘unexpected’ for guests. A space with next level luxury finishes and amenities, paired beautifully with comfort - for ultimate relaxation and enjoyment. It came together more beautifully than we could have ever imagined and we can't wait for you to experience the magic of our slice of heaven - Eco Bay Chalet.

Our Why

The cottage build commenced February 7th, 2023, and was complete exactly 10 months later on November 7th - fully furnished. The build was completed by Hayle’s Electric Inc & General Contracting, along with various sub trades from our home town. Where ever possible, we brought in trades that we always work with - so that they could be part of this special project too!

Throughout the Chalet you will find that all of the artwork are photos from the build - a touch we are thrilled to add! It's the details & craftsmanship that make the difference and make your stay unforgettable.
There are still some days that we have absolutely no idea how Eco Bay Chalet came together. But then I remember we have been dreaming this up for YEARS before it happened. By the time we had the opportunity to buy this land, we already felt like we had built the cottage and it was ours. A dream 9 years in the making!

With the immensity of this undertaking - we just made ONE decision at a time. Very intentionally. From the time we bought the land to the time we finished the build, it was just under three years. We know you'll feel the passion & dedication we've poured in to Eco Bay Chalet.

Eco Bay Chalet.  But, that didn't stop us.

From laying the footings and foundation to framing, installing the ridge beam, fitting windows, drywalling, handling all electrical work, and laying the flooring – their expertise knew no bounds. Rain or shine, they put in the work, infusing each step of the process with a passion for the project. Eco Bay Chalet stands as a testament to their hard work and unwavering commitment, as it came to fruition within a timeframe that wouldn't have been possible without their dedication. This project truly owes its existence to the exceptional efforts of Jordan Hayle and the entire Hayle’s Electric Inc team.

"My family and I were so excited to have the chance to stay at Eco Bay Chalet! This place is just jaw-dropping! Love the framed pictures throughout the chalet showing the construction journey of the build and the bunk room is every kid's dream room. I am honoured to have this opportunity to travel with my family and capture all the highlights of our trips for them to look back on as keepsakes of their childhood."

What an amazing weekend of core memories. This was our family's last trip of 2023 & it did not disappoint. So grateful.

Ashlynn Carr ~ Realtor

"I still can't get over how stunning this property is. The architecture and finishes were absolutely gorgeous. You could just see how much heart and soul was poured into this build. It is the perfect spot for a corporate retreat, holiday party or a relaxing vacation!"

"Eco Bay Chalet is honestly something you have to see to believe. They truly thought of everything when building and designing this luxurious chalet. It's the perfect destination for girls' trips, micro weddings, team building or wellness retreats, content creation, milestone birthdays, and so much more."

I could not believe my eyes when I walked into the space. From top to bottom, the details are insane. It's one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.
