Guest Reviews
"This is what tourism should be like: respect for the environment and the people who live there. We had 3 wonderful and memorable days, with excellent excursions, cultural teachings, traditional crafts demonstrations, and many interesting conversations with very knowledgeable and friendly guides and staff. The food was very varied and delicious, and the chefs went out of their way to accommodate special dietary needs. We felt so well taken care of and welcomed from the first moment we arrived, and it was sad to say goodbye. Thank you for an unforgettable experience."

"Amazing Bucket Lift Lifetime Experience! After 5 weeks already visiting much of the regular highlights of British Columbia and Alaska, you might have though that was not much left to do.
The resort is located in an amazing area with easy access to a range of wilderness experiences. The location, access, guides and wildlife were beyond expectations! The wilderness area is true pristine, magnificent in its grandeur and Klahoose Resort is icing on the cake.
