2023 Season Opener

The term “June monsoon” certainly applied to our opening week at Shadow Lake Lodge! While the rain and snow can be uncomfortable, it set the stage for a lush and dynamic environment - adding appreciation to a warm meal and dry bed! Our team and guests were in high spirits with the company.

We have no doubt that all the rain will set the stage for an amazing scene with the sun in the coming weeks :).


Arrival

Don the rain gear and enjoy the sights on the way in - everything’s much more alive when there’s some moisture in the air~

You’ll likely be met by Alex when you arrive at the lodge! Check-in time is at 2:30pm.

At around the 10km mark up the Redearth Creek Trail, you’ll find a bike rack and several stations to lock up your bike for the final 3km hike in.

Wood planks line the forest where the water collects after rainfall.

Rain, nature’s saturation meter! <3

What’s better than a cozy cabin after a wet day outside? Not much!

The lodge sits at 1,800m, so any precip has a chance to be snow!

Books and board games a-plenty in the CPR cabin.


The staff & kitchen

A little bit of the ‘behind-the-scenes’ with our staff on opening week. The staff make up the heart of the lodge and we can’t wait for you to meet them!

Be prepared for some trivia from Alex, without the aid of the internet :O

Ryan, our ever-so charismatic chef!

We take incredible pride with our attention to detail to make sure your culinary experience is next to none.


Lodge experience

Keep an open ear for the ringing triangle - it’ll be time to eat!

The Cellar Door will be providing you with a wide selection of drinks.

Board games, wine, and a fire place? Yes, please!

Solar panels power much of our operations at Shadow Lake Lodge - they still gather power when it’s cloudy!

Beauty~


Meet our team!

Our entire staff wasn’t up at the lodge for opening week to have their photo taken, but we’re sure you’ll meet them soon!

We can’t wait to have you at Shadow Lake Lodge - see you soon!
