The group that we bring now has a waiting list as this is the most fun that a group of colleagues, friends or family could possibly have together.Nootka Island Lodge is located on Nootka Island near Gold River, British Columbia, Canada. The owners will do everything possible to customize your stay to your needs. Our group uses a combination of our own boats and guided boats provided by the lodge owners. Our group really enjoys that we have the entire property to ourselves and that we are able to decide our own fishing plans and dining options. It is located right IN the fishing grounds of Nootka Sound and is in protected waters so we can go fishing in any weather. The features of this lodge just keep on amazing me. The lodge is very well equipped and the dock sits out in the bay as part of the best view anywhere in the Sound. "I have been part of a large group that looks forward to our annual outing to Marvinas Bay every year, for over twenty years now. I would recommend Marvinas as a great place for a group or a family. Halibut fishing is also very good and easy to get to from Marvinas.

We have had great success with both, often catching Chinooks within 10 minutes of the lodge. Marvinas is very close to the fishing grounds and you can choose between fishing in calm inside waters or traveling offshore. The best part of Marvinas is the fishing. We especially like the little things like a large dock and an ice maker. The facility is very comfortable and has all the amenities a large group could want. Our group has been coming for several years and each trip is amazing. "Marvinas Bay lodge truly is a special place.
