Telegraph Cove Resort

Vancouver Island


The dominant business in Telegraph Cove, this well-established heritage resort provides accommodations in forested tent spaces as well as a string of rustic, highly popular cabins on stilts overlooking the marina. A new 24-room lodge built from local wood to resemble the nearby Whale Interpretive Centre manages to look fabulous without spoiling the fishing-village ambience.
