Squamish & Around
Quality rustic is the approach at this comfortable inn, where the rooms are warm and inviting with plenty of wooden furnishings. Recover from your climbing escapades in the property's popular sauna – or just head to the downstairs brewpub, which serves some of BC's best housemade beers. Inn guests can request free brewery tours.
Even if you're not staying, it's worth stopping in at the restaurant here for great pub grub with a gourmet twist.
