When the Pacific Northwest shifts into winter, Lightwater Cove transforms into a tranquil haven, offering unique experiences and serene beauty that can only be enjoyed during the cooler months. Whether you’re seeking rest, connection, or a cosy getaway, here are a few reasons why Lightwater Cove is the perfect winter destination.
Winter at Lightwater Cove is marked by calm and quiet. With fewer visitors, you’ll feel as though you have the cove to yourself, making it an ideal time for a romantic retreat or personal getaway. Walk along the dramatic coastline, breathe in the crisp ocean air, and experience the serenity of our private cliffside paths.
Nothing says winter like curling up by the fire with a warm drink in hand. At Lightwater Cove, our Great Hall provides the perfect space for board games, books, and quiet conversations by the fire. After a day of exploring, enjoy a soothing soak in our thermal pools or relax with a hot cup of tea in your beautifully appointed suite.
Our on-site farm provides fresh, seasonal ingredients that our chefs incorporate into every breakfast. Visit nearby restaurants that celebrate the flavours of the Pacific Northwest.
The Lightwater Natural Wellness Spa is a winter sanctuary. Treat yourself to a rejuvenating facial, massage, or body treatment, all tailored to nourish your skin and ease the stresses of the season. Our spa packages are designed to leave you feeling refreshed and recharged.
Winter amplifies the rugged beauty of Salt Spring Island. The moody skies, misty mornings, and snow-capped mountains create a breathtaking backdrop for hiking trails. Watch storms roll in from the warmth of The Great Hall, or catch a rare winter sunrise over the ocean from your suite.
Winter is a time for reflection, and Lightwater Cove offers an inspiring environment to focus on wellness, mindfulness, or creative pursuits. We encourage you to write, paint, practice yoga or meditate during your time with us.
