Awesome, fantastic, simply excellent! Mike and his team are the best. Thank you for an unforgettable stay. Between the whales, the eagles, and their adorable dog, the incredible fishing was just the icing on the cake.

Not being an angler myself, and accompanying a seasoned angler, I was a bit apprehensive about the experience. What a mistake! Our guide, Les, was a true expert and determined to put us on fish. He managed my inexperience and apprehension brilliantly, ensuring I felt comfortable on the boat and wasn't completely overwhelmed. Our cabin was spacious and spotless, and the staff incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. In fact, even though the main purpose was fishing, it was mostly a rewarding experience thanks to the shared meals, delicious food, laughter, and beautiful scenery. Watching eagles feast during our dinner was a magical moment. A huge thank you to Breanna and the whole team. You are amazing!

We spent three absolutely wonderful days at the cabin! Such a peaceful and refreshing stay, and we even had the chance to witness an incredible eagle show during a dinner at the lodge. Highly recommend!

Rustic fishing lodge but spotlessly clean, located in an absolutely beautiful corner of Vancouver Island. The highlight of the trip, by far, was the guiding and fishing. We caught an incredible amount of fish, and our guide was very knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate, which made the experience truly thrilling. Being out on the sea, in this little piece of paradise, was simply magnificent. The fish packing and processing were excellent. Getting to and from Port Hardy is difficult because of fog. Our return flight was cancelled due to fog, and the trip back to Vancouver was long and grueling, but we made it to our destination. The only negative point might be the food. I found it fairly basic. I had to ask for seconds twice because members of my family hadn't received any. In particular, there was a blueberry pancake and a donut, and each time, the cook hadn't been able to make more. A large group of friendly, food-loving people sometimes left us short for appetizers and breakfast. Despite that, a very nice fishing experience on the Pacific Coast. The lodge owners are extremely genuine, and the staff, overall, really seemed to care about the guests.

I just returned from a fabulous fishing trip at Quatsino Lodge. The setting is beautiful and I could easily spend hours gazing out at the water. I have nothing but praise for the lodge staff, dock mechanics, and guides. A tireless team, very helpful and incredibly kind. To say the service was excellent is an understatement. I was impressed by how seamless the organization was, from departures to arrivals transfers. So simple, especially for a casual angler like me. And speaking of fishing: it was outstanding. Everyone had great catches. The guides are true experts. If you like fishing (and who doesn't?), go for it!
