New Owner Plans Expansion at Cordero Lodge

Cordero Lodge

Cordero Lodge, long a popular stop for cruisers bound up or down-coast along Cordero Channel, has a new owner. Laurie Tanguay purchased the marina-resort from longtime owners Reinhardt and Doris Kuppers in May and enjoyed a busy season in his first summer of operation. Tanguay plans to expand the resort this winter, extending the current 800’ of dock space, as well as adding more guest cabins and a hair/esthetics salon in the main building.

Located behind Lorte Island, just east of Mayne Passage, the resort offers a cozy restaurant, guest moorage, showers, washrooms and laundry in a convenient location about 10 miles north of Dent Rapids.

…you understand now why you came this way.
