From nothing, Shantytown now flourishes amongst vibrant rainforest. Where gold-hatters and saw-millers formerly toiled for a living. An entire township hand-built on persevering at preserving the 19th Century West Coast experience. Native birds flourish to the point of nuisance (or eating), the sulphurous scent of ancient marine life billows forth from hissing steam locomotives, alluvial flakes shimmer in the bottom of every gold pan, and old shop doors are prized wide open for your interest. Cinch up your bowyangs and come get a feel for the TRUE West Coast story into you!
