Is your cottage serviced & ready for Spring?

Visit our links section for local service providers such as chimney cleaners and septic maintenance contractors. It might be a good idea to team up with a neighbor and have your cottage checked on a regular basis for insurance. Be sure you check your property insurance and see what requirements you have for weekly/MOnthly inspections

Home Safety: Protect your Family and Home

Good News...The first 2 waves of this project are now complete so the FIT5 units are in place in Lower Tuwanek and The Tuwanek Trail.

If you are in these areas and still want to participate it is not too late. Just sign up on the form here

If you or someone you know has experienced the devastation of a fire, then you know the importance of self-protection, preparedness, and fast response. Some local residents in the community of Tuwanek are currently looking at deploying the new The FIT 5 Fire Suppression Devices in Tuwanek. There would be one located on Tuwanek Trail which would service the Tuwanek Trail Homes one located in Lower Tuwanek which would service homes from Sechelt inlet/Upland Roads to the end of Sechelt Inlet Road and one that would service upper Tuwanek from Upland Road around to the bottom of Carmel Pl.

Lexie – “Long standing Mayor of Tuwanek “
Feb 12, 2000 – Feb 02, 2010

 We are sad to announce the sudden passing of Lexie, long time Mayor of Tuwanek and friend to many.  On February 02, 2010 Lexie came home late in the afternoon and lay down on her bed and went to sleep. She had been battling cancer for some time but that never stopped her from making her daily rounds to say hello, have a cookie or go for a walk.

Emergency Response

Emergency Response

The Tuwanek Hotel has been chosen as the radio contact point in the event of an emergency such as an road closure, power failure, earthquake etc.

The Hotel has been set up with CB radio equipment which allows us to be able to communicate with the our emergency contacts in other communities across the coast such as Sandy Hook, Sechelt, Davis Bay and Gibsons. In the event of an emergency updates and emergency response can be organized for Tuwanek by air or by boat in the event of road closures and power outages.

Tuwanek Launches AED for Community

The Tuwanek Community will be one of the first on the Sunshine Coast to have its own AED (Automated External Defibrillator) thanks to the support of Chris and Krista Cutlan of the Tuwanek Hotel and At The Waters Edge Spa. This new equipment will be located in the office of the Tuwanek Hotel and is available 24/7 for any member of the community in the event of an emergency.

Real CPR Help for Infrequent Rescuers When They Need it MostPlease note: we are stocking adult pads as well as ped pads for infants.

In the Event of a heart attack response times to Tuwanek are typically 12-20 min reducing the life expectancy of the patient from 95 % down to 5%. This new state of the art AED is easy to use and can dramatically improve the chances of survival until medical emergency response in the event of sudden cardiac arrest.

In the event of an Emergency and Suspected Heart Attack:

  • Call 911
  • Have someone stay with the patient or call a neighbor
  • Go to The Tuwanek Hotel day or night – Ring Office – someone is always available 24/7
  • AED is located in Main office area along with a medical first aid kit
  • Our staff are trained in the use of the AED as well as our Managers but please take the time to review the demo as it is designed for public use and everyone should know how it works.

Learn More information about AED:

For more information call Chris or Krista at 604.885.3442
or stop in and we would be happy to demo.
