Great Hall

The Great Hall located on the main level can accommodate up to 300 guests for an evening reception or 150 for a sit down dinner. Decorating the Great Hall are spectacular weavings, canoes, carvings and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that look north over Lost Lake and Garibaldi Mountain Ranges. Great Hall rental includes
the 78-seat Theatre.

Mezzanine Patio

The Mezzanine Patio’s 5,000 sq ft of decking floats into the forest and allows guests a view of Blackcomb Mountain. 2,500 sq ft of patio is covered in retractable awnings creating an outdoor weather-resistant event space. A fire pit provides a wonderful ambiance for after-dinner drinks and story-telling — a great setting to start or end a sit-down dinner.

*Awnings cannot hold snow load so should not be relied upon during winter months.

Istken Hall

The Istken Hall is a dynamic round room with wrap-around windows showcasing stunning views of the picturesque northerly mountain ranges and Lost Lake woods. Istken Hall can be used day or night and in combination with the neighboring cafe/lounge space for optimal customization for your specific event requirements.
