Knight Inlet Lodge

Glendale Cove, Knight Inlet, British Columbia

Knight Inlet Lodge is a floating wilderness lodge moored in Glendale Cove, deep in a 100-kilometre glacial fjord on British Columbia's coast. There's no road in, you arrive by floatplane from Campbell River, which sets the tone for a true wilderness stay built entirely around grizzly bear viewing. It's a well-located choice if wildlife, rather than resort facilities, is the reason for your trip.

Facilities

  • Guest rooms with queen beds and private bathrooms
  • Dining room with complimentary house wine
  • Lounge areas with wood-burning stoves
  • Interpretive centre
  • Kayak access for estuary tours
  • 1 on-site dining room

Location & What's Nearby

Knight Inlet Lodge sits in Glendale Cove, 60 kilometres into Knight Inlet from the open coast, with no road access. Guests fly in by floatplane from Campbell River, a flight of around an hour that's as much a part of the experience as the stay itself, taking in glaciers, fjords and coastal mountains along the way. Grizzly bear viewing platforms are reached directly from the lodge by boat.

Why We Recommend It

We recommend Knight Inlet Lodge for travellers who want a wildlife-first experience rather than a conventional hotel stay. The floating lodge setting and daily bear-viewing excursions make it one of the most immersive ways to see grizzly bears in British Columbia, and the floatplane transfer from Campbell River is a memorable start to the trip in its own right. Best suited to travellers building a dedicated wildlife stop into a wider British Columbia itinerary.
