Captain Thompson's resort is an outstanding resort. It has the best location of any in Alex Bay. It is within walking distance of everything. The view of the river and Bolt Castle in units on the main channel is second to none. The staff was very helpful and professional. The manager, Lisa, was exceptional! We plan to be a regular visitor every year.

Havent stayed there since 1991, and it was great then! As always it was great 33 years later. No wonder It's booked 2 years in advance. Its always a great experience in Alex Bay.. Even when its a little colder.
