It was my second time staying at the Port Renfrew Wilderness Lodge and it did not disappoint!
The deck and outdoor space were amazing and we lucked out with weather. It was a great place for our group of friends to get together, with lots of space for games in the big yard. The bunk beds are comfortable and there are 3 bathrooms, which was handy. The lodge is a quick drive to Botanical beach or an easy walk to the renfrew pub... would recommend checking out both.
There was a big power outage due to a fallen tree on the power lines, but we were well looked after by the caretaker "Rivermouth Mike" and another friendly neighbour :) They checked in on us and provided candles and a lantern. We used the BBQ to cook that night and had the cozy wood stove for heat. It was an adventure and a ton of fun. Would highly recommend the lodge for an escape out of the city!
