Telegraph Cabin + My Favorites
Bobby Cullerne was the very first resident of Telegraph Cove, arriving to the protected harbour in 1912 to man newly-strung telegraph lines stretching from Campbell River. The lineman lived alone in a one-room, one-story cabin that is still preserved today, ensuring communication to the most northern and remotest parts of Vancouver Island.

Wastell Manor, Cabin 24 + My Favorites
Fred Wastell made his living at Telegraph Cove for more than five decades, building this home in 1929, which juts attractively from the bluffs. He added on to the structure throughout the years as his family grew. Wastell's father, "Duke", had recieved the land from its bankrupt owner, and along with Japanese and Chinese workers built a salmon saltery and small sawmill, creating the first viable industry in the area. The family used boats as transportation, as it was not until 1956 that Fred was able to build a usable road to the outside world. Address: Cabin 24 | Telegraph Cove, BC

Campbell River Telegraph Line + My Favorites
Completed in 1912, the Campbell River telegraph/telephone line was completed as a project funded by the Canadian government to improve communication on the northern end of Vancouver Island. The line was strung from tree to tree to reach its final destination at Telegraph Cove, which is a popular whale-watching and outdoor adventure destination today.
