About the Lodges

Sea Otter Lodge & Little Lumberjack Lodge are located in Kyuquot Sound on the West Coast of Vancouver Island. The fishing is only 10 minutes away from the Lodge with some of the best remote sportfishing for King & Silver Salmon, Chinook and Spring Salmon and Halibut. A private, seven-acre island with deep, protected moorage is home to both lodges. The island has a chip trail, old-growth forest and beaches with clams, oysters and mussels.

One bathroom has a claw-foot soaker tub, while the others have tile floors, pedestal sinks, walk-in glass showers and a Jacuzzi tub. All linens and towels are provided. In the kitchen, you will find basic kitchen stock - so if you happen to forget maple syrup for your breakfast pancakes, there’s always some in the cupboard.

The Lodge comes with a stereo, CDs, VCR, videos, DVD and DVDs. There are books, magazines, games, cards, crib boards and poker chips for rainy days. We have hydro-electricity for 24-hour comfort, with an easy-to-use, quiet generator for back-up power. There is Telus phone service, satellite internet and a fax machine, so you can connect with home or the office and boast about your catch.

Inside this unique floating lodge, you will find one double bed, 3 twins, and a folding couch. Your linens and towels are provided. The kitchen comes fully stocked so if you run out of essentials, such as olive oil, please help yourself. A BBQ is provided for seafood feasts. You’ll find a TV, DVD player, DVD movies, stereo and music CDs. And there is also a good selection of books, magazines & games. Hydro-electricity is provided for 24-hour comfort, with an easy-to-use, quiet generator for back-up power.

Little Lumberjack Lodge is a historical building. It was the last cookhouse & bunkhouse in Kyuquot Sound for a once-thriving logging industry. Little Lumberjack Lodge has been respectfully renovated with rustic-luxury for our guests. The logging heritage is part of its charm.

We hope that when you depart our island paradise, you’ll take with you a sense of Kyuquot's rugged beauty and history.

Local Kyuquot villagers will delight you.

Kyuquot Village has a general store along its Boardwalk. You can find a little bit of everything in the store. There are no beer & wine stores in the community, so any alcoholic beverages must be brought in with you.

Every Thursday during Summer, the village hosts The Kyuquot Public Market. Local artisans will be selling their art and souvenirs of Kyuquot. This is a wonderful time to meet the Kyuquot locals and immerse yourself in local culture. The village of Kyuquot is famous for its laughter. Everywhere on the Boardwalk and Dock you will find friendly locals, often with a joke to tell or amusing bit of folklore… and the odd fishing tale!
