I've never gone but I understand Telegraph cove and Alert Bay are very interesting. Sointula has a very interesting past with 'Brother John' or 'Brother 12'.

Let me know if you find out where there are homes of this kind. <BR/><BR/>newbie: lol! If you think a letter of recommendation may help you to qualify for a "Hobbitat for Humanity' home, let me know and I'll gladly write one for you! <BR/><BR/>Thanks JDH! Very cool links!
