McKay Bay Lodge

We had a wonderful time at this lodge. Cheryl and Brian and Mel and all the staff went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. We were picked up at the dock and us and our luggage were taken to the lodge. The next day we had a tour booked with the Kiixin first nations across the bay and Cheryl took us across in her little boat. One of us was 89 and getting around Bamfield was difficult for her to go up and down the steep hills but the staff at McKay bay drove us to wherever we needed to go. The meals were amazing!!! breakfast lunch and dinner were all fantastic and it was great to have lots of drinks and home baked cookies and snacks available to all guests throughout the day. Our room was spacious and comfortable and the beds very comfortable. The view from the deck is great.

This place is awesome. 2nd year in a row and can’t wait to be back next year. Every guide we’ve had has been truly amazing.

People are awesome , felt like a home away from home. Food was fantastic 😋 you can watch the sun rise from the deck 😎. Minutes away from open water for fishing !!! Rooms are comfortable, shower, toilet and sink In Rooms.. hot tub out back.

McKay Bay Lodge was a wonderful experience and we would recommend booking for a unique Vancouver Island getaway. The staff were extremely accommodating and gave VIP treatment to my wife and her mother (87 yrs old) while we were out fishing each day. All the details were taken care of from the time we were picked up at the dock after arriving on the Frances Barkley to the day we left. Definitely a highlight of our vacation.

We had an amazing time this August fishing at McKay Bay Lodge, I could not have asked for a better trip. The accommodation's were top notch and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful leading up to the stay/while we were there. The guides were friendly and safe, we got into a ton of fish both salmon and halibut. I would highly recommend this lodge!
