Charming Inn - Modern Comfort

Very charming old inn located in historic part of Powell River, fitted out with artifacts from a century ago. But with modern comfort; the best shower we’ve used. Owner and staff very friendly and accommodating. Disappointed that the cafe was not open for breakfast.

A Memorable Stay at The Old Courthouse Inn I recently stayed at The Old Courthouse Inn in Powell River and had a wonderful experience. This unique heritage property offers charm, comfort, and a real sense of history—all in a welcoming atmosphere. Highlights of My Stay: Historic Character: The inn is full of personality, with beautiful architectural details and a warm, nostalgic feel that reflects its roots as a 1939 courthouse. Comfortable Room: The room I stayed in was quiet, clean, and thoughtfully decorated—perfect for a relaxing and restful stay. Delicious Breakfast: Breakfast at Edie Rae’s Café was a real treat—fresh, well-prepared, and served in a charming setting. Genuine Hospitality: I had the pleasure of meeting Kelly Belanger, the owner. His warm and friendly approach really made me feel at home and added a personal touch to the visit. Great Location: Situated in the historic Townsite area, it’s an ideal base to explore Powell River’s coastal charm, trails, and local gems like Townsite Brewing. Final Thoughts: If you’re looking for a stay with character, comfort, and a personal touch, I highly recommend The Old Courthouse Inn. I truly appreciated the care and attention that went into every part of the experience—and I look forward to returning.
