The main house was purchased from a logging company back in 1938 by "Curley & "Thora" Couvelier here they both stand in front of the steps leading to the front door. They raised two children "Norma" & "Doug". both attended the old school building built on a bluff behind the resort Curley worked as a logger, Sekiu was a very busy area for logging, from the 1930's to the 1970's a locomotive use to bring logs from the Hoko logging camp on a flat car right in front of the house across the street, and back the flat cars out on a pier and then dump the log's in the bay.

From a ship that went a ground by Sekiu point, Curley salvaged much of the lumber and used it to build a couple of cabins, for rentals long ago for logging crews, that's basically how Curley's resort got started. As Sekiu grew as a great place to catch Big Chinook Salmon, other resorts followed on Front street bringing more and more fishermen.

The Motel first floor was build in 1954, it had eight units that kept busy, and had all electric appliances as the sign said across the front, 4 years later the second story was added, this kept all four very busy. Soon Curleys grew as word got out, then he got into the rental boat business , were he had 35 boats at one time to maintain, and rent to fishermen.

Busy Front Street and view of Sekiu 1961, Curley & Thora had mentioned to the family Dentist that the resort was For Sale, which he ended up buying.
