We currently have 1 small and 1 group longhouse that are wheelchair accessible. Please keeping mind due to our rustic setting in a forested area, there will be uneven terrain and gravel paths. We recommend contacting us at (778)702-0359 to discuss specific needs, as we aim to accommodate where possible but want to ensure it’s the right fit for your adventure.
Yes, we welcome pets in designated pet-friendly longhouses— just let us know when booking so we can assign the right cabin. There’s a $10 fee per pet per night, and we ask that you keep them leashed and clean up after them to respect the natural environment and other guests enjoying Haida Gwaii’s outdoors.
Pack like you’re camping indoors: bring your own bedding, pillows, towels, and toiletries (we provide eco-friendly cleaning supplies and toilet paper). For cooking, we have basic utensils and a gas stovetop, but no fridges in small longhouses—coolers are available to rent for $10. Don’t forget rain gear, sturdy shoes for hikes, and any personal items, as we’re off-grid with limited amenities.
Hot water can be limited due to our off-grid setup—currently, there’s no hot water in the small or group longhouses, but we have a shared shower house with hot showers available. We’re working on improvements, but this rustic aspect is part of the authentic Haida Gwaii experience. Feel free to take a refreshing river dip at your own risk!
We’re off-grid with limited solar-powered electricity for basics like lights, but outages can happen—no refunds for interruptions. Cell service is spotty; you might pick up Alaskan towers leading to roaming fees, so check with your provider. No Wi-Fi means it’s a great chance to unplug and connect with Haida Gwaii’s nature instead.
Our spot is steps from endless North Beach for crabbing, beachcombing, or surfing, and a short walk to Tow Hill for hikes with ocean views. You’re surrounded by Naikoon Park trails, ancient forests, and the Hiellen River—perfect for bird watching, clam digging, or relaxing by the firepit. It’s all about easy access to Haida Gwaii’s wild adventures.
Absolutely—many families love our setup for kid-friendly adventures like beach exploring, crabbing, or roasting marshmallows by the fire. Small longhouses have bunks and space for up to 5, while the group one is great for reunions. Just note the rustic nature means no TVs or Wi-Fi, so it’s all about outdoor fun in Haida Gwaii.
