“Our week at Chilko Experience was nothing short of magical. From the moment we stepped off the float plane, we were immersed in a world of breathtaking beauty and unparalleled luxury. The log cabins are a work of art, blending seamlessly with the wilderness while offering every comfort. We saw grizzlies in their natural habitat, flew over glaciers, and kayaked on the crystal-clear Chilko Lake.”
