“As ‘the fishin’ guy’ at Kayak Angler, I was contacted by the Plensky family regarding advertising opportunities for Sea Otter Lodge… a few weeks later my kayak and I were on the way! (I know, I have an awesome job!) The place is UNREAL! The serenity, scenery, atmosphere, people, wildlife, hiking, food & THE FISHING is all outstanding! I’m pumped about their kayak fishing – there are SO many islands that are not only amazing to explore but set the scene for the perfect yak fishin’ adventure: providing structure for fish close to the lodge, protection from weather, calm crystal-clear waters… it’s like a Tailor-Made yak fishin’ experience! If you’ve never tangled with a Chinook or Coho from a Kayak or fought a Halibut or Ling Cod all the way from the deep to wrestling it on to a plastic boat… well, then I feel sorry for you!
GET THERE! – oh and did I mention the food, scenery, people and the fishing?! oh ya’ I did!”

“Recently, I received a call from Yakfishaholic. The call was an offer to visit Sea Otter Lodge. Without hesitation, I quickly accepted the offer. An offer I’m glad I didn’t turn down. From start to finish the visit to Sea Otter Lodge was amazing. How many times do you get to hang out on a private island? From its great scenery, to world class fishing; plus our hosts, the Plensky family, made us feel completely at home. And the meals were next level! Already making plans for a return visit!”

“Our stay in the Sea Otter Lodge was magical. It was the perfect spot for a family or group of all ages and interests. Everyone was able to do what they wanted on their vacation, feel comfortable and relaxed in a setting out of a storybook. The hosts were so generous, we felt welcome in the space upon arrival. We used the kayaks to paddle into Kyuquot and around the islands every day. Each day was like a dream. I was able to paint everyday looking out onto the ocean from the living area. I will never forget this beautiful place. The fishing was fantastic and led to some epic meals prepared & inspired by the awesome kitchen! (The kitchen pantry is well equipped with bulk items i.e. flour, yeast. When we ran out of bread, we just made our own! The home comes with books, music, movies, big TV, games, WiFi, etc as well; no one could ever be bored. I would go back every year if I could. The hosts were helpful, welcoming, and truly understood what families need and want on a holiday.”

“Our group has been coming to Kyuquot every summer for several years now and for several seasons we have stayed at Sea otter Lodge. Their beautiful lodge is large enough to accommodate our group but feels more like a comfy home providing all the amenities needed to make our stay enjoyable. The location offers, beautiful scenic views, great easy access to fishing areas, and a private quiet location to enjoy our summer getaway.”

“A group of us has had the pleasure of staying at Sea Otter Lodge for our annual fishing trip over the past two seasons. While we've enjoyed several fantastic places in Kyuquot during the last 10 years, none have matched the experience at Sea Otter Lodge. The accommodations are extremely comfortable and well-equipped, easily hosting the nine of us and our three boats. The Plensky family are exceptional hosts, communicating effectively and consistently exceeding our expectations. I can’t wait to return to Sea Otter Lodge for more amazing fishing adventures on the West Coast. Kyuquot is hard to beat, and the hospitality from the Plensky family makes it even better.”

“Sounds cliche but it’s really hard to express in words the Sea Otter Lodge experience. The only word is ‘magical’ for everything, from the lodge experience to the world class fishing, the awesome food & exploring of the surrounding islands. I can’t wait to share this amazing place with family and friends.”

“Thanks a lot to your family for being such great hosts. Your generosity & hospitality was incredible! We loved taking advantage of the kayaking and hiking opportunities in and around Kyuquot. Seeing all the wildlife was so cool. At the end of a long day, it was so great to come back to our home-away-from-home. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay than your lodge. Thank you so much!”
