Wild Adventure
With a typical stay consisting of just 12 guests in our four Lodge Rooms and three larger Cabins, Klahoose Wilderness Resort is an intimate sustainable eco resort offering a highly personal experience. Guests enjoy meeting the Klahoose and local staff, and engaging with the other guests, which often develops into new friendships. Exclusive resort buy-outs for multi-generational families or “bubble groups” is also possible with shared accommodation.
As each day passes, you will fall into the rhythm of the coast. With our staff guiding your journey, you'll be able to slow down, smell the cedar, feel the ocean and be inspired by the natural beauty of our land and Indigenous culture.
