Luxury
in the heart of the Canadian wilderness. Moored
in the shelter of Barnard Harbour on Princess Royal
Island, on the West Coast of British Columbia, King
Pacific Lodge is quite simply the most luxurious
wilderness lodge ever built. It has been designed
for absolute comfort, and positioned to capture
spectacular views of the landscape. A remarkably
civilized place in the midst of absolute wilderness.
Enviable – Extraordinary – and very exclusive.
 A
labor of love and the ultimate in comfort and beauty,
King Pacific Lodge is crafted from massive timber,
native stone and premium materials. Edge-cut fir,
natural slate floors, splendid wrought-iron fixtures,
custom-designed furniture, and intricate wood craftsmanship
throughout.
Open
from May to October, we offer one-of-a-kind wilderness
experience packages for our guests to enjoy that include
fly-in fishing, kayaking, spa treatments, and more.
Soothe your mind with the spectacular serenity and
scenery of our West Coast Canadian fly-in lodge. You
can balance your energy with as much or as little
adventure as you like, for we welcome all levels of
fitness and skill, placing emphasis on comfort and
first-rate service.
Activities
available include:
- World-class
guided ocean fishing targeting the seasonal salmon
species or halibut at any time. Gear and tackle
are provided. Saltwater flyfishing is our specialty.
We are located amongst the best flyfishing streams
and rivers on the West Coast of British Columbia.
Fly out via helicopter for spectacular trout fishing
in May and June or catch Coho Salmon on a fly later
in the season.
-
Let our guides take you by boat to mysterious BC
rainforests, deserted beaches, alpine meadows or
gushing waterfalls. Or, experience Heli-hiking to
remote mountain ridges, snowy mountain tops or coastal
regions. You can also glide silently under ancient
cedar boughs, along cliff faces and into silent
coves. See wildlife and marine creatures up close
and enjoy a gentle paddle in Barnard Harbour. Let
our naturalists’ guide you on the trail of
the Kermode bear, unique to the vicinity; or, see
pods of killer whales cruise silently by your boat
or the tail flukes of the humpback whale as it dives.
If you are interested in a gentle introduction to
the splendors of the Northwest BC coast…Go
for an outing on our 31' cabin cruiser to see sea
lions, Orcas, eagles, deer, otters, bears and whales.
Phosphorescent night cruises are also offered.
- There
is also Helicopter Flight-seeing letting you fly
over the coastal fjords, soaring peaks & verdant
valleys … you can learn to tie that perfect
fly for tomorrow's fishing trip … and practice
the ancient Japanese art of fish printing. Let our
guides show you the best photographic locations
or capture that shot of the rare Kermode Bear or
breaching humpback whales. You can edit digital
photography as soon as you get back to the lodge.
Our naturalists can show you nature through different
eyes, explore culturally modified trees or visit
a Tsiamsian Longhouse (by arrangement only).
Did
we mention the “Luxury amidst absolute wilderness?”
Seventeen oversized accommodations await guests with
views of the temperate rainforest, or expansive ocean
views. Each spacious room features a king-size bed
with luxurious down duvets, a comfortable window-side
seating area, and a slate-lined bathroom with a deep
soaker-tub. Choose between wilderness or ocean views.
Fortify your adventurous spirit with dining as sensational
as these wilds. Our executive chef deftly evolves
culinary creations from traditional native recipes
and seasonal sources of local delicacies. Feast from
fresh sheets listing bounties of the sea, harvests
from the forest and yields from this morning’s
cull of wild berries and mushrooms. Sit before a place
setting that mirrors the verdant greens and mountainous
proportions you see out the windows.
We
are also an ideal destination for small corporate
retreats, or board-level roundtable meetings. Engulfed
by miles of pristine BC wilderness, participants will
find time to ponder, unwind and recharge. Whether
the retreat is a reward or a working session devoted
to relationship-building, business planning or brainstorming,
the setting provides an escape from the bustle of
daily life and an atmosphere of tranquility.
