Ocean House

Ocean House at Tlaga Gawtlaas is a 20-room boutique lodge on the shoreline of Massett Inlet, on the northern tip of Haida Gwaii's Graham Island. Owned and operated by the Haida Enterprise Corporation in partnership with the Old Massett Village Council, the lodge began life as a floating fishing camp before HaiCo relocated it to its current shore-based site in 2020, a five-year undertaking that generates more than 40 full-time-equivalent jobs for the community. Rooms are simple and comfortable, with a standard or ocean-view option and a two-bedroom suite for families.

Explore Naikoon Provincial Park's stretch of North Beach on the lodge's doorstep, or join a Haida-guided cultural experience into nearby Old Massett, home to some of the region's most prominent carvers and artists. The dining room serves a tide-to-table menu built around Ocean Wise-certified local catch, with wild salmon, halibut, and Dungeness crab among it.
