Hotel Overview

Sense of place

The Painter’s Lodge is located along the Discovery Passage on the northern part of the Campbell River on Vancouver Island. The Campbell River is internationally recognised as the 'salmon capital of the world' and is home to a host of other wildlife species including whales and eagles.

Rooms at Painter's Lodge

A range of accommodation options caters for all types of visitors. Simple and spacious, rooms are set in the striking main lodge building and offer views over the gardens or picturesque Discovery Passage and Quadra Island. Detached cabins offer a secluded retreat in the woodlands, still within easy reach of the resort’s facilities.

After an action-packed day, satisfy a hearty appetite with fresh seafood and delectable west coast cuisine in Legends Dining Room, accompanied by a selection from the extensive wine list. Alternatively, Tyee Pub offers comfort food in a cosy, homely atmosphere.

Facilities

Work out at the lodge’s fitness centre or with a game of tennis before freshening up with a dip in the outdoor pool and hot tub. Spa fiends in need of pampering can head to neighbouring April Point Resort & Spa, just a 10-minute ride away on the complimentary water taxi.

Search for grizzly bears, witness majestic orca whales in their natural environment and see eagles soar with organised wildlife tours, guided by experts.
