Recently stayed here over the Thanksgiving long weekend, particularly in Cabin #7. While the location and view was great, this cabin needs a deep clean. The warming drawer under the oven was full of dried out food, the oven was dirty inside as well. Shower still had hair from the last person stuck to the sides, as well as the filter in the jetted tub was extremely dirty. The jacuzzi tub looked like it hadn’t been properly cleaned or sanitized in some time. Perhaps this was just a one off as I see others reviewing that their place was clean.

I have been to Port Hardy a few times on fishing trips and it was first time this year with Bear Cove and Wicked Salmon. Easily the best of the bunch. It is the entire package that delivers on the full experience, boatful of fish, clean comfortable cottages, great local food, very knowledgeable, experienced guides that are super fun that kept us… on par to bring the fish in including two double headers where we landed both fish!!! Not kidding. Ask me for the video of one of the fish jumping out the water on top of the other line and the calm voice of Wade talking us off the ledge and getting

My buddy kyle and I do a yearly king salmon fishing trip and we travel to different rivers and ocean fishing areaS to explore and tackle the great King salmon. My buddy found this place and did some research on the area. This place was awesome! The owner Wade was a great guy and took good care of us! He shared valuable intel of the area and we fished and had great success in the local area. We ate at the local restaurants and really enjoyed our experience at Bear cove cottages. I highly recommend this place. The cottages we quaint and clean! They had a great view of the water. The parking was great

Wade and Shannon made our return to Vancouver Island a huge success and wonderful experience. The cabins are beautiful and clean. The view is fantastic. After spending more than two months surviving solo while shooting Alone Season Two for History, it was great to see the island from a less brutal perspective. Wade had our backs as the rescue boat captain. His skill on the water is only matched by his skill as a host.

Immaculate Views, Comfy and very clean Cabins with services that is not only very accommodating to a family and dog, but friendly and respectful. My wife fell in love with views of the water and watching the 20+ eagles that decided to put on an amazing aerial show. Where I had a blast with the incredibly informative guide, Wade Daley. Will definitely be returning for another trip!
