Hi Dwight,
You are absolutely right – this home is fantastic. Interestingly, even though the combined square footage was about 3900, it seems perfect for two, with ample opportunities for privacy for guests in the basement. It is spacious, open and just feels good. …
Thanks for your effort, which translated into an unbelievably beautiful and wonderful home.
Susan and Charles.

Dear Dwight,
As we wind down our construction (of our home), I want to express my appreciation to you and your crew at Hamill Creek for the contribution you have made to the creation of what has been built on the Island.
It has been a long effort, eleven years, to bring about a dream that (my wife and I) share for our family. It has involved many individuals, some of whom, like you, have been with us for most of the journey. I have many vivid memories of each of the projects in which you and your crew were involved, beginning with the boat house, which you took on at short notice, and after the first day of the raising I was convinced that my dream of timber frame structures for our home was well founded.
The barn is the most incredible structure. Every time I walk through it, I marvel at the intricacies of the timberwork. Recently, on some of my solo trips to the island, I have been staying in one of the barn apartments rather than ‘firing up’ the big house. I had never spent a night in the barn until then and notwithstanding its size, it has a very intimate feeling. I look forward to the day when we will have horses back on the property so I can experience spending the night there with them shuffling around below.
As we wind down construction on the main house, I still find myself in awe of what has been created. One of my dreams for the property was to use native materials so the house would seem to be a transformation of those materials into a structure – this has been accomplished beyond my wildest expectations and I owe you and your crew much appreciation for helping bring it about.
As the boys grow up and I get older, I am looking forward to being able to spend more time on (the island), enjoying its natural beauty, which I feel has only been enhanced by your contributions.
It has been a pleasure working with you and I hope that in the future there will be other projects that we can work on together.
Best Regards,
Sheldon.
