Venue Features

The scene

The Salal Room
Generous windows invite natural light and beach views, framed by indigenous Salal shrubs for a private experience with friends and family. The Salal Room at Wickaninnish-At-the-Pointe provides 720 square feet of versatile private space enhanced by natural lighting from large picture windows, with forested beach views and state of the art sound. The Salal Room lends itself to private dining for up to 40 people or 60 people for a cocktail reception. As The Pointe Restaurant is best suited to groups of ten or fewer people, the adjacent Salal Room is a perfect venue to host a group breakfast, brunch, and lunch or rehearsal dinner. Shell Beach Tucked away at the western end of the Wickaninnish Inn’s property by the McDiarmid family cabin, this beach is named for its finely crushed shells underfoot. Guests of the Inn are offered the opportunity to experience the elegant seclusion of Shell Beach for a memorable outdoor private function from mid-May through September. Shell Beach is bounded by tidal rocks where shorebirds often rest, and bald eagles can occasionally be seen flying overhead. This pristine, natural setting lends itself well to a custom West Coast seafood cookout or beach barbeque celebration for up to 60 guests. Our Special Events and Culinary teams are at your service in making your exclusive Shell Beach wedding a fond West Coast memory.

Extra perks

Salal Room ~ Tables and chairs are provided, including tablecloths and napkins for your event. Decoration includes our West Coast Theme ~ tealights, fresh Salal leaves, tiki torches for the beach.
