overnight stay in/near Campbell river VI ??
Hi Guys,
In the process of sorting out our summer hols to VI, planning a trip up to telegraph cove for whales watching.
Kids want to do a day on Mount Washington for mountain biking/hiking etc.
Any recommendations for somewhere to stay for one night on the way back from TC ??
There are 5 of us, 3 teenagers and us
Many thanks

If you pm me with more detail I can find you some numbers. Do you want a hotel room, b&b, do you want an efficiency?
Travelodge is cheap with a pool. Give me a shout. Where are you in the highlands?

Hi Eastbound,
Thanks for that, but a quick google says that place is closed to the public

If you do decide to go whale watching up around Telegraph Cove I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
Here's a link to a thread I started shortly after our trip up that way last September. A Whale of a Tale

There is some more to the right but it didn't fit well into the pano.
