I had booked a couple of nights at the Trailhead Resort as I was expecting to be on standby for the West Coast Trail and appreciated having a kitchenette for final food preparations. The place is good for having space to spread out, but unfortunately I was fooled by some website photos that made the place appear newer/cleaner. I am... More

This place isn't a resort by any stretch of the imagination. The focus of the "resort" is on fishing charters & supplies. The room is large but basic except for a nice seascape mural over one bed, and sits above a fishing goods store & office.There are 2 beds, an important feature for my sister & me, a small bathroom,...

We stayed at Trailhead Resort from Aug 26-Aug 29, 2012 and had a fantastic trip! I would like to thank Connie and Peter for their warm hospitality. The cabin that we stayed in was very spacious and welcoming; it felt like we were at home! We did 2 days of fishing on Aug 27 & 28 with Mike on the... More

The waters off Port Renfrew to Swiftsure Bank on the west coast of Vancouver Island teem with salmon and bottomfish. And this great fishing is only a scenic three-hour drive from the BC Ferries terminal at Swartz Bay via Highway 14 West. With its fleet of soft-riding, 10-metre Silver Streak cruisers, well-equipped with the most modern electronics for navigation, and... More

We went in July 2011 and the 4 of us limited out both days. The cabins are awesome and the food is terrific. Going again this year and there will be 12 of us, so IWe'll be taking along a lot of coolers to pack the fish in.

We recently spent one night at one of the Cabins at the Trailhead Resort and had a great stay. The cabin itself was really nice, modern and spacious and was set in a really beautiful area, just a few minutes from the sea and near all the local conveniences. The only thing I would say against this place was the... More

I would like to say the fishing is terrible, but in all honesty, that would be a lie. The only reason I would say that is because I don't want hordes of people coming to catch all of the fish at my favorite place. I would like to keep this private, although I guess they need some guests to come... More

We drove out to Port Renfrew on a whim because while we were in Victoria several locals recommended it. Wish we had been able to stay longer! Loved this place. It was great for our family.
