Klahoose Wilderness Resort, British Columbia, Bear Lodges, British Columbia, USA & Canada

Klahoose Wilderness Resort is an award-winning Indigenous eco-lodge tucked into the remote Homfray Channel on British Columbia’s wild Sunshine Coast, at the gateway to Desolation Sound. Known in the Klahoose language as Thee chum mi yich “further back inside”, this is a place that feels profoundly far away yet is one of BC’s most accessible wilderness lodges. Arrive via a flight from Vancouver to Port Hardy, followed by a short boat transfer through glassy inlets and mountain-framed seascapes, or opt for a private seaplane straight to the lodge.

With just 22 guests at full capacity, Klahoose is intimate and quietly powerful, a true Canadian wilderness hideaway with the rare privilege of being guided by the people who have stewarded these lands for generations. Stays are three or four nights with set arrival days and the experience blends cultural immersion with elemental adventure. Think cedar-scented air, saltwater mornings and stories that anchor you to place. Open May to October, the season shifts from whales and waterfalls in early summer to grizzly bear viewing during the late summer, in line with the annual salmon run.
