Sproat Lake Landing Resort

The overall experience was excellent and exactly what we were looking for. There are a few things to consider before booking this hotel. The hotel restaurant has limited operating hours, and the closest restaurant and town are approximately 10-15 minutes by car. There is a small convenience store across the street that also sells coffee. This hotel is ideal for those seeking peace and quiet.

We stayed here on our way to Tofino from Victoria to break up the drive across Vancouver Island. Sproat Lake is located about 20 minutes from Port Alberni, where you’ll find many hotels but it was a busy time of year and there was no vacancy in town so we opted to stay here instead. The hotel rooms were clean, comfortable and quiet… though quite pricey. The front desk has very limited hours as do the on site restaurant and cafe. You’ll have to coordinate with the people managing the property if you’ll arrive outside of the hours so that someone can let you in. Staff were very friendly and helpful, property is located on Sproat Lake, they do have a few canoes and kayaks to borrow, though you may have to bring your own life jacket. It was pouring rain when we arrived so we didn’t venture out to the lake while we were there except to walk on the boardwalk to have a look. The hotel was average, the price was quite high. But we had a good sleep there and that was the main purpose of our stay.

The room was great. Wonderful veiw. Friendly staff.
