Experience
Oona River Retreat! Located in the historic and
picturesque community of Oona River on Porcher Island,
Oona River Retreat is just 40 Km south west of Prince
Rupert, British Columbia, Canada. Here you'll find an
Eco-Tourism lodge that provides you with a variety of
weekend and weeklong adventure packages
as well
as the opportunity to customize your own package adventures.
Our
guest accommodations consist of two modern cottages,
a main lodge and a 55 foot long mother ship. With 15
as our total number of guests, you are virtually guaranteed
peace, quiet and relaxation. The main lodge houses a
lounge, games room, satellite projection TV, kitchen,
shower, and more. The two self-contained cottages have
all modern conveniences, and are situated with easy
access to the courtyard, where you'll find a hot tub,
sauna, and a large deck with lounging facilities. Our
buildings are constructed from red cedar, and the aroma
is as breathtaking as the surrounding scenery and wildlife.
Sit
in the hot tub and sip on a glass of wine while a British
Columbia sunset dominates the horizon. Nearby a deer
cuddles her fawn, a bald eagle glides beneath clouds
and the scent of nature captivate your mind.
Located on Porcher Island, Oona River Retreat is in
the centre of one of North America's top salmon fishing
waterways. BC's Skeena River produces legendary sized
Chinook, Coho, Chum, Pink, and Sockeye salmon. The Skeena
River held the World Record for a sport-caught Chinook
until 1985, an unbelievable 92 1/2 pounds!
Halibut
is the largest of the game fish in the waters surrounding
the island. Usually in the 25-50 pound range, they can
reach up to 450 pounds. Whether food for your table,
or a fish tale to tell, Oona River Retreat, near Prince
Rupert, is the place to come for your BC North-Coast
fishing adventure.
Experience the BC coastline from Oona River Retreat,
or our comfortable mother ship the Active Pass. Glide
along with the orca whales, watch sea lions as they
sun bathe, play with the porpoises, feed the eagles,
or absorb the history of the lost islands of the north.
For
those who want the lodge luxury, and the experience
of nature, Oona Retreat is the perfect location. Our
land based kayaking is limited only by your imagination.
You'll have opportunity to see and explore the vast
array of aquatic sea life and to review the history
and the culture of the inhabitants of British Columbia's
coastline.
At Oona River Retreat there's also backcountry hiking
in an untouched and magical old growth forest; mountain
biking along nature trails; visit a salmon hatchery
and release Coho into the wild, hike along the river
system and watch salmon mate and spawn, go whale watching,

Retreat is your destination! We offer a variety of adventure
