What a wonderful place for a family getaway! We have been here before when our family was younger and now returning with adult children for some family fun on the high ropes and rock wall was great! The summer sales packages didn't fit our tight schedule so the staff were extremely accommodating in creating a 'just for us' package that... More

When we had outdoor education at strathcona, it was a lifetime experience. The guides were friendly and they were great teachers, their explanations were very clear. The food was satisfactory, and I loved the way they incorporated a big bell that would ring for dinner. More

Very basic accommodation and food and not inexpensive. The Westcoast Wildnerness Lodge on the Sunshine Coast is comparable in price but much better value in terms of accommodation and food, with comparable surroundings, but geared differently to the adventure market that Starathcona focusus on however.

There were many great things that cannot be argued...great views, clean wonderful waters and the really the only lodge in Strathcona Park. BUT this is a very tired place and I am sure at one time was fantastic. Unlike other review i found the rooms clean but the grounds around the Lodge could use a serious clean up. The beach... More

We came to Vancouver Island for a friend's wedding in Campbell River and decided to extend our stay into a small vacation. We selected Strathcona Park Lodge for its location and natural, easy-going feel and couldn't have been happier with our stay. We used SPL as a base for a variety of trips around the island to explore the surrounding... More

We went to Strathcona lodge for our close friends wedding in July 2010. The only thing going for this place is the absolutely beautiful scenery around it. I requested a room with a mini fridge for my father in laws medication before arriving and it became a HUGE ordeal. I was willing to pay more for a room with a... More

It's unfortunate to hear your experience at SPL wasn't more pleasant. There was beautiful weather for the wedding - 28 degrees C and blue sky. I saw many of the patio doors wide open throughout the weekend, which provides a cooling breeze as well as inviting the 'wilderness' indoors - hence the mouse and spiders attracted to the lights. The... More

A delightful respite in one of the lodges for 3 nights. Beautiful area, very tranquil. did a great hike up to Colonel Foster on the Elkhorn trail. Superb flowers at Buttle Lake and Lupin Falls. Also great canoe session on the lake. Good food and very reasonably priced food in the dining room. More

My husband researched, planned and organised our holiday to Vancouver Island, and after reading the reviews of Strathcona Park Lodge, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. We had a cabin on the edge of the property, on the shore of Upper Campbell Lake. The cabin was obviously not new, but had its own rustic charm. The compact bathroom was... More
