In 6 kms, if you keep going straight, you’ll drive right down our driveway.

Go a couple of kilometers through the village of Cedar and bear left onto Yellow Point Rd. (at the big, blue firehall) Travel 10 kms, past the ‘Inn of the Sea’, up the hill and we’re at the top of the hill, on your left.

Make your final destination the Nanaimo Regional Airport (YCD).

There is floatplane and helicopter service from downtown Vancouver and YVR’s South Terminal to Nanaimo Harbour.

By Sea

You can bring your boat to the lodge, but anchorage is limited and seasonal. We have a small dock and two mooring buoys but are exposed to the sometimes harsh and unforgiving South-east wind which makes for great views but is no fun for your boat in a storm. We are located exactly at ‘Yellow Point’ on your chart, in Stewart Channel on the east coast of Vancouver Island, or…
49 00′ 45” N. lat.
