特威茲繆爾公園酒店(Tweedsmuir Park Lodge)

A beautiful lodge set in some of the most spectacular mountain scenery you can imagine!! It provides the perfect destination if you’re “getting away from it all” or looking to hike, fish, heli sightseeing/ skiing, go bear spotting, rock climbing, or some combination of them all!! And with inclusive meals that are worthy of a 5 star restaurant. The service across the lodge for our 5 days there was superb Highly recommended!!

We came to see the bears and we saw plenty! The river drifts were so relaxing and fun The guided hikes were really great. Food was amazing and all of the staff were so helpful, warm and so much fun. The guides were so knowledgeable and put so much effort into finding bears and making the experience so enjoyable. Everything from accomodation to the location was perfect. Would love to return

A relaxing trip, that met expectations, delivered by a competent and professional team, with a high degree of knowledge and experience. The staff were friendly, professional and interacted with guests accordingly.

The scenery, walking and drifting amongst the bears, the food, the service, the staff, the via ferrata, the massages, the cute and cozy cabins, the scent of the fresh air, everything was amazing! 10/10 would recommend!

Amazing experience at T****smuir Park Lodge for the grizzly package. We saw so many bears and learned so much about the habitat. The colours of the trees and leaves in the fall season is unmatched anywhere we have been in the world. Highly recommend for a true nature escape combined with luxury service & experiences

We were recently privileged to be able to visit T****smuir Park Lodge and visit the Grizzly Bears of the Great Bear Rain Forest feeding on the salmon in the Atnarko River. Our visit was amazing to say the least. The views in this valley are breath taking, surrounded by spectacular mountains. We came to T****smuir because we knew Ellie Lamb, so we had a full day grizzly bear ecology walking tour with her and learned so much, enhancing our respect and love of the Grizzly bears. The Great Bear Rain Forest was so serene, spiritual, and stunningly beautiful. You could really feel the presence of the bears in their home, so respect was utmost in our minds. During our visit, we were fortunate enough to see Virtue and her two cubs fishing the Artnako River, Rocky, Perfect, Ghost (a fleeting glimpse of her), and last but not least, Peanut!! These characters are all so special and have their own personalities. Everyone at the Lodge was friendly and helpful, and all meals were delicious. The chalets were very comfortable and beautifully decorated. If you love nature and want to learn more about Grizzly Bears and why they are so special, you will love a visit to T****smuir Lodge, surrounded by spectacular beauty and wildlife! Thank you again Ellie, for making our visit to T****smuir and the Great Bear Rainforest so memorable. We will be back next year!

This wilderness lodge is situated in the Great Bear Rainforest in B.C., along the banks of the Atnarko River. No checkin to speak of, greeted at the wee Bella Coola airport, then driven with interesting commentary to the Lodge (45 minutes) where lunch was waiting, then escorted to my cabin. After that it was time for Bear 101 — an introduction to the world of Ursus, entertaining and instructional (NEVER run). Most guests stay three to five nights, I was there four nights. The older gentleman who flew in with me was there for seven nights. ROOM — I think I was housed in the smallest cabin (actually a duplex) on the great lawn and it had everything I could want — comfy bed, great linens, gas fireplace, reading lamps, lovely bathroom with big walk-in shower (no tub but not a detractor for me), heated floor, good soaps and lotions, coffee maker, tea kettle, bird/tree/rainforest guides, radio for communication, walking sticks, umbrella, extra blanket, laundry bags (daily laundry service gratis), front deck with lounge chairs. I traveled solo so paid single supplement. ACTIVITIES — Rates are inclusive of everything (but alcohol) including one hour-long massage and all activities which are legion! The primo activity is the guided river drift in a zodiac (with seats!). I did three of these, one each day, and saw 23 bears, mostly grizzlies and three black bears (plus three more bears on the lodge lawn). Other activities: the Via Ferrata (hell no), many hikes easy to arduous, bear viewing stand on the Atnarko River, Nuxalk culture talks and petroglyphs, Salmon 101, interpretive nature walks, hot tub, sauna and gym. Other activities at additional cost: helicopter tours, fjord tour with and without a stop at historic now abandoned cannery, heli-hiking, and more. A ton of gear is available in all conceivable sizes — rain pants and jackets, rubber boots, backpacks, binocs, water bottles, lap blankets, etc. SERVICE: — The lodge excels in service. Most needs are anticipated but requests are graciously accepted and fulfilled expeditiously. There is an activities desk manned all day and evening. A schedule is chalked up every evening posting which guests are doing what when. Changes can be made instantly, questions answered, gear provided, suggestions made, all with smiles. Meal service and drink orders are prompt and gracious, individual preferences quickly apprehended and catered to (e.g., sparkling water). There is a large team of guides who are personable and expert. I was comfortable putting myself in their hands, sometimes literally. I’m older and not at all fit but was able to climb in and out of zodiacs if not always gracefully. BEARS AND OTHER CRITTERS: — I was focused on bears and eagles and was greatly gratified. Over three days and river drifts saw 23 bears on the Atnarko (20 grizzlies, three black bears) and countless eagles, adult and juvenile, magnificent birds. Also three bears on the lodge great lawn. Some insects on the river but never

A very grounding experience, and great opportunity to reconnect with nature. Lots of bears (we saw 26), excellent guides and staff, wonderful food, and OH the scenery. Highly recommend a visit to T****smuir Park Lodge.

A most enjoyable experience including excellent bear watching, delicious meals, and a friendly staff surrounded by natural beauty. Scheduling flexibility was much appreciated and each staff member was very personable and assuring. I would recommend this experience to anyone needing a calming and natural outdoor adventure.
