The Mermaid Chair |
The ferry used in the movie runs from Brentwood Bay to Mill Bay in Saanich, British Columbia. The ferry departs from the Brentwood Bay terminal, then arrives at the Mill Bay terminal (serving as the island Muffy St John owns). The terminals and ferry have also been featured in a few other movies including Black Point (2002), The Mermaid Chair (2006), and Five Easy Pieces (1970). The actual ferry that was featured in these films was recently retired and sold in 2011. It had been in service since 1956.

Muffy St. John's mansion is the Dunmora Estate. It is actually on the same side that the ferry departs from, unlike in the movie. The house is for sale with an asking price of close to $9 million. The house is located right on the Saanich Inlet and it is pretty far back from the road.
