A Canadian couple have wildlife for neighbors and they are more than happy with those accommodations. Wayne Adams, 66, and Catherine King, 59, have lived on a floating home creating a sustainable lifestyle since 1992 in Cypress Bay, British Columbia.

Their home aptly called “Freedom Cove” is part of 12 floating platforms for various uses such as a guest lighthouse, five greenhouses, a dance floor, a studio and even an art gallery. The couple does not own a refrigerator, instead their meals come from the food grown in the greenhouses and whatever the catch of the day is from the ocean.

The drinking water is collected from a waterfall in the summer and rainwater in the winter. Adams and King used to have the structures powered by solar panels that broke down, forcing them to use a generator.

The couple has no interest in going back to a more modern lifestyle. King says, “this is how I will live for the rest of my life.”

Catherine King proudly sits with her dog and vegetables harvested from her garden.

There are 5 greenhouses on Freedom Cove.

A generator supplies them with 3,000 watts of power.

Their guests can stay in the lighthouse.

The gardens provide the couple with all the food they need year around.

The buildings are all painted magenta and turquoise.

It’s a whole new level of off the grid living.

Wayne and Catherine love their lifestyle and it fits them perfectly.
