Everything you want to know before you come
Capacity, what's included, the drive in, and how to book, all in one place.
The property
How many people can stay at Rock Lake Earth Lodge?
Up to 44 guests sleep across the whole property: the main lodge sleeps 28 (five ensuite rooms, 23 beds) and each of the four private cabins sleeps four.
Can we book the whole property privately?
Yes. You can book a single cabin, the lodge, or reserve the entire property exclusively for your group, ideal for weddings, reunions and retreats. See the whole-property listing on our booking engine, or call us and we will walk you through it.
Do you host events?
We do, weddings and celebrations of up to 200 guests, plus retreats, corporate offsites and family reunions, with seating, tents and décor available.
Your stay
What’s included with a cabin or lodge stay?
Canoes and paddleboards, wood-burning fireplaces, and access to the 14-person sauna are included. Each cabin has its own private wood-fired hot tub and screened deck; the lodge has a commercial kitchen, bar and wrap-around patio.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, many guests bring their dogs. Just let us know when you book so we can make sure everyone’s comfortable.
Is there Wi-Fi and cell service?
There is free Wi-Fi at the lodge. Cell service is limited on the property and on the drive in, many guests consider that the whole point.
Do we cook, or is catering available?
Both. The commercial kitchen, outdoor grills and pizza oven make cooking for a crowd easy, and catering can be arranged for events and larger groups. You’re 30–45 minutes from a grocery store, so plan your shop before you arrive.
Getting here
Where is the lodge?
In the Northern Rockies just north of Hinton, Alberta, within Rock Lake Provincial Park at the gateway to Willmore Wilderness Park.
How do we get there?
From Hinton, head north on Highway 40 about 40 km, turn left onto Rock Lake Road for 27 km, pass the green Rock Lake Provincial Park sign, and the lodge is the first driveway on the left. Enter directions before you lose cell service.
How far is it from the cities?
About 1 hour from Hinton, 2 hours from Jasper, 3.5 hours from Grande Prairie, and 4 hours from Edmonton.
