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.

The weather was perfect. The fish were everywhere. Don't drive the Bamfield Road whatever you do. Find another way of getting there. After you limit out on kings make sure you stop at Port Alberni and buy some Effingham oysters. These are the finest in the world.

Really good lodge with a comfortable room and good food and friendly staff who would go out of their way to help you with anything you required. Asked you what you would like for breakfast and flexible with times etc for all meals.
