Booking a Room

Using the top menu bar, scroll over to “Book a Room”. Or, click here to book a room.  The top section of the booking page lists available rooms and prices. The next section provides more detail on the lodge and the final section lists individual room amenities.

Checking In

When you enter the lobby, turn right by the display case and enter through the double doors into the Great Room. If you don’t find the managers here, or in the kitchen, please ring the bell on the display case. The manager will welcome you and escort you to your room.

Once you’re settled in your room, feel free to explore the Great Room and meet your host.  We’ll take this opportunity to schedule breakfast for the following morning, fill you in on Island activities and confirm wildlife trips you may have booked.  The white board near the doors lists our Wifi number, local restaurants and Island attractions.

Check in time is after 3:00 pm, or when the 2:20 PM ferry from Port McNeill arrives at Alert Bay. If you find yourself on the last ferry at 9:30 PM, please call us at 250.974.2410.

Pet Policy

We allow one dog (sorry, no cats) which must be confined to the room and not be left alone. This includes during meal times when the dog can be moved to the car. Noisy dogs must be relocated to the guest vehicle. Guests must promptly report all damages to management. Ideally, dogs will be accompanied by their own bed or blanket as we do not allow dogs on furniture.  Please check with us before you book.
