The most AMAZING, natural, zen place to be. The boat ride there was very nice. The food was really good and the people are really nice. Cabins are clean and roomy. Love love. Can’t WAIT to come back..
My stay was incredible!!! The food was so fresh and delicious. Beautifully served and decadent in flavour. The staff was amazing. Always there for everything. The second I thought to ask for anything they already had it and were bring it. Honestly I cannot say enough thanks. I felt so welcome and cared for. 100 % attended to. Gracious thanks. I can’t wait to see you all again soon. I look forward to sharing the resort with my family and friends.
In early October we took a trip to Klahoose Wilderness Lodge in the hope of seeing grizzly bears. We were not disappointed. We drove to Lund where we left our car and where we were met by members of the Klahoose Nation for our 50-minute boat trip to the Lodge in Homfray Channel in the heart of Desolation Sound. This scenic ride reminded us that British Columbia is as beautiful as any coastal country including Norway, New Zealand and Chile. We were welcomed with a traditional song by Randy, the cultural guide for our stay. Randy is a carver and designed the logo for the lodge with its welcome meaning “It’s good to see you”. The lodge has both cabins and hotel rooms overlooking the channel where otters, seals and sea lions enjoyed the calm waters. The weather was so lovely on one afternoon that several guests took advantage of the paddle boards and kayaks to enjoy the calm deep water in the warm autumn sun. For two days we were driven to Toba inlet via Desolation Sound in all the moods of the west coast: fresh snow on the mountains, clouds dancing along the hills, sunshine enhancing everything around, and then one day of rain to remind us that we are on the far reaches of Canada’s west coast. We had two full days of grizzly bear watching and were fortunate to see a mother and cub at very close quarters and several male bears: all fattening up on the shrubbery surrounding the Klite River as the salmon run was almost over. The lodge has built six “towers” that provide shelter and excellent viewing of the wildlife. Food and drink were plentiful. Delicious breakfasts set us up for the morning, and then a picnic lunch at the dock, pre-dinner appy’s and drinks before three course dinners. If we were hungry in between, the baker had all manner of cookies and cakes to ensure we did not go hungry. This was a great opportunity to visit the more remote areas of BC and be introduced to Indigenous Culture.…
Our booking was to see grizzlies and we weren't disappointed they added humpback whales as well. Extolls the beautiful B.C. coast in raw nature. Very comfortable accommodation with excellent meals. All staff and guides were personable leaving us with a great family feeling. Special kudos to Leon, who did everything from boat captain to guide. Another to Randy who gave us much insight to the Klahoose Nation culture. Will definitely be back.
If you’re looking to relax and go on an adventure all at the same time then this is the trip for you. My favourite part was taking a boat through some of the craziest landscapes to see grizzly bears for the first time! Definitely a memory I’ll never forget!
