Vancouver Island is rich enough as a region to entertain you for a week, but also makes a superb destination as a long weekend. Its beaches and rainforest trails are great for kids, while its sheer remoteness makes it unbelievably romantic. The region boasts a wealth of wildlife as well as pine tree forests, mountain ranges, and crystal-clear lakes, which can be observed and experienced from the comfort of two refined wilderness lodges, one of which is located on Vancouver Island, while the other is located just off the coast.
