Cabanes Powell River

Located in Powell River, BC. When the U.S. entered WWI in 1917, they embarked on a program of shipbuilding to offset heavy losses to merchant shipping from German U-Boats. As steel plate was in such great demand, government support was given for the building of seagoing ferro-concrete ships.
The WWII concrete ship-building program was more successful than its WWI counterpart. Construction was much stronger due to better cement and more steel reinforcements. Concrete bottoms, which eliminated condensation issues in steel ships, were well-suited for carrying dry cargo. These vessels handled well but were only capable of a maximum of 10 knots. All of the dismantled hulks were proud ships in their day - some fought battles of freedom, while others carried full cargoes along the world’s trade routes.
In the late 1940s, after rust and rot holed many of the original steel ships, Macmillan Bloedel settled on the collection of concrete vessels as a more permanent solution to their breakwater dilemma.

Powell River : les avis sur les hôtels les plus prisés

Waterways, A Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Chambre confortable et parfaitement propre."

Island View Lodge

2/10 Horrible

"This place was a nightmare from the moment I arrived. The parking lot reeked and had dog poop scattered around. My room stank of dog urine so badly it was hard to breathe. I had an emergency and had to leave after the first night, but there was no one,not even at the front desk, willing or able to speak to me about a refund for the second night I paid for. Completely unprofessional. The surrounding area is depressing and offers nothing worth staying for. Save your money and stay literally anywhere else."
