Voted one of the ten best "towns" in Canada to visit by travel writers (as published in Harrowsmith Magazine), Telegraph Cove is tucked away on the eastern coast of Northern Vancouver Island in one of the last virtually untouched areas of the North American continent. This tiny sawmill and cannery community was important to the development of the North Island and has a rich and colorful history. From 1911 when the first telegraph operator took up residence in Telegraph Cove this little cove has been a unique part of Northern Vancouver Island.

Telegraph cove resorts takes pride in being able to present it to the general public in as close to the original condition as possible. You'll love our cozy cabins/cottages along the boardwalk and our campground / RV park in the old growth forest.
