  Our waterfront cabins stand on stilts situated at the waterfront of the resort, they offer picturesque views right from the doorstep and during high tide hover right over the water. Waterfront cabins are more freshly renovated, with a modern, clean white interior. Whereas our forest cabins sit a little farther inland and are positioned next to Nimmo’s waterfall, and give a real sense of being in the Great Bear Rainforest. The Forest cabins have a natural wood interior, and are cozy for curling up at the end of the day. Both waterfront and forest cabins are equipped the same, with two bedrooms, one bathroom, along with a lounge area.
