Pedder Bay RV Resort Review
I wouldnāt call us seasoned recreational travelers, but weāve got a few years of RV travel under our belt. During that time, weāve overnighted everywhere from a truck stop, to a parking lot, side of the road and campgrounds. Some facilities are total dumps and some are resorts.
If you donāt RV you may not know that some of them are flat out luxurious with multiple pools, recreation hall, golf courses, marina, pool hall, spa, etc, etc.
Today Iām sharing an RV Resort we discovered last year, while we were staying at the dump down the street.
Itās called 
It has a full-service marina with 240 berths, modern docks, lighting and power, security and marine gas service. It also has a bustling full tackle and bait shop, with good reason. The Strait of Juan de Fuca is one of the key migration routes for all five species of Pacific Salmon so offers great salmon fishing all year, halibut fishing and crabbing.
They also have a coffee shop, a licensed snack bar, and local store. I don’t fish or boat but I do enjoy a great view of the water, which the RV section offers in a few of their best sites.
The facilities in this place are fresh, clean and well thought out. I have to say they also have the fastest, best Wi-Fi connection I have ever had in a campground. And I mean ever.
My business requires internet and while we’re traveling, wifi can be hard to find…especially at campgrounds.
Pedder Bay RV Resort is quiet and intelligently designed with cedar trees planted between the campsites for privacy. Many other RV parks do that too but they’re often kind of scraggly and donāt really serve that purpose.
Flower boxes brighten up the laundry facilities which are well located and a necessary evil while camping.
Each site offers 30 and 50 amp power, cable TV and Wi-Fi internet, water and sewer hookups. 
Their oceanfront sites have awesome views and three of them have a deck built over the water.
We spent a lot of time relaxing on our deck just watching the boats come and go. We will be back to Pedder RV Resort and hope to stay longer next time.
Thank you so much for your kind words and prayers for Lucy on my last post.
X-rays discovered a large tumor in her chest which they believed had spread to her lymph nodes. She was not improving with oxygen and she would not recover. We couldn’t have her suffer through surgeries or other invasive procedures. At 14 1/2, she deserved to be pain-free and at peace so we had to put her to sleep. Our hearts are broken and we miss her terribly. She was a trouper, great friend, and loved everyone. I will look for her often in the places she used to sit by me and will always remember how very sweet she was.
Thanks for reading and have a great day.
I am sorry for your loss… you have done the your very best while being with Lucy. Take care good care of yourself dear.
Thank you
So sorry to hear about your Lucy, she was a beautiful fur baby.
Jennifer, I am so sorry about Lucy. May your fond memories bring you comfort.

You made the right and humane decision about your Lucy but it is so hard. I am very sorry and having had some wonderful pets put to sleep over the years, I have some idea about your feeling of loss. She was a fine little dog and was blessed to live with a family that loved her so much.
I am sorry for your loss.
May your sweet Lucy rest in peace – prayers for you as you recover from your loss. It’s so hard to lose our fur babies.
Itās really tough. Thank you
Itās so heartbreaking when a precious pet passes. I am crying with you because I know the depth of grief. My Bichon passed away at age 16 last month. I hope you can take comfort knowing you provided Lucy a wonderful life.
Iām so sorry Kay. Sending hugs
The worst day does not erase all of the love, companionship and awesome company that a pet gives throughout his or her life. Many many prayers for you…?
Thank you Molly
so hard to say “good bye” to our pets.

So sorry for the loss of your sweet fur baby. She was a lucky girl to be in a family that loved her so well for so long.
I am so sorry about your loss. Take care of yourselves.
I am very sorry to read about Lucy. I always enjoyed seeing her photos.
I’m so sorry for your loss. It is always heart-breaking and takes great strength of character to say goodbye to our good and loyal friends and companions. She was blessed to be in a family that did not require her to suffer needlessly.
So very sorry for your loss – Losing a pet is never easy. Suz from Vancouver
Jennifer,
Iām so very sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved Lucy. She was well loved and when you wrote about her it was obvious how much she was loved. My sympathies to you and your husband.
Judy
Oh dear… Lucy looks like such a sweetheart in your photo above.
So very sorry to hear about your Lucy. We had much the same scenario with our Heidi, miniature schnauzer, at 9 1/2 years last week. No time to prepare ourselves and we miss her terribly. Glad to see you are enjoying Vancouver Island, great place to visit. I am a British Columbian.resident and enjoy your blog tremendously. Hope you can enjoy the rest of your visit while you are going through this very difficult time.
Jennifer, I am so sorry for your loss of your precious Lucy. They are so much a part of our family and part of our hearts. You did what was right for her. We have lost several fur babies over the years and each one took a part of our hearts with them; but much as it hurt, the time we had with each of them was worth the pain of their loss. I wish you peace and comfort and healing. Hugs, Phylly
My heart breaks for your loss. May the wonderful memories of Lucy keep you strong. ā£ļø
So sorry about dear Lucy ?
Itās a beautiful, relaxing spot. The hedges give one some privacy in amongst all those RV/trailers. Weāve been in there once in our boat. The food in the restaurant was delicious.
Iām not sure if youāre going to be spending any time in Courtney but The Filberg Festival is a must. Itās on from the 2-5 August.
Lucy will be forever in your hearts. ??
Jennifer, so sorry about your fur baby! We had so say good bye to our miniature Aussie in June she was 15 years old. She was so much a part of our family. She was with us through both our childrenās weddings and the birth of all four of our grandchildren! She sure loved them all. As we did her!!
Iām so sorry. It so painful
Jennifer, as I read this I shed tears with you. My condolences on the loss of your beloved Lucy. Hoping the memories of the last 14 1/2 years will bring you peace. Sending you big hugs.
Iām so sorry, Jennifer. Iām sitting here crying because your words of love for Lucy made me think of our baby that we said goodbye to in March. Prayers for comfort as your family.
Such sad news. My heart goes out to you.
Iām so sorry, Jennifer. I know the rawness of feeling, smelling seeing your loved pup no more. Take care of yourselves and go slowly as you need to.
Sending the very best to you on the passing of your companion and member of your family, Lucy. Allow the beauty around you comfort and heal all the tender parts of your soul.
Lucy was well-loved and will be missed, I’m sure. Maybe some time spent outdoors will help ease your heartache.
I’m sorry about Lucy. It hurts to lose your dog, but it can’t erase the years of companionship you had.
So very sorry for your terrible loss Jennifer. She was a gorgeous little dog and I loved it when she was included in your posts. She will never be forgotten for her devotion to you and your love for her. Grieving hits us at the strangest times so let your sadness out when you have to and know that we are understanding your sorrow.
My heartfelt condolences on the loss of your precious Lucy. As difficult a decision it is, you are doing this out of the love and dedication to your beloved fur baby! May your sweet memories of her sustain you. We just helped our maltese Maggie over the rainbow bridge three weeks ago at the age of sixteen, so I share your sadness. Sending love and comforting hugs to you and your husband!
So sorry for your loss. Losing a pet is never easy. They become a part of the family and make such a presence in our lives.
