These cabins have a very storied past in Texada Island lore. Some say Chinese miners erected the cabins during the gold rushes of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Others claim they were built and occupied by injured soldiers after the First World War. Regardless of which story is correct, the cabins have been a fixture on Texada for at least 70 years. Like many of us of a certain age, seniors living on our island relate many tales of exploits they got into during their youth around these very cabins and their beaches. The property was always owned by the local limestone quarry in Blubber Bay, which has changed hands many times. The new owners' legal department was concerned about squatters and other possible liability surrounding the cabins because they were torn down a few years ago. This is nothing new or unique, as it's the same wherever you go.
