We love this place, especially in the spring and summer as a nice stop before we go for walks around the lakes or on the valley trail. They make a great cappuccino and the baked goods are delicious. They offer some gluten-free baking as well.

This is a must-see, but check the hours or call before you go. The building is so beautiful that everyone seems to book their wedding there! This is not a large museum, but it houses some stunning local indigenous art and artifacts. We recommend trying to show up for the guided tours where you will be walked through local stories and legends. A wonderful place to learn more about the Squamish and Lil'wat people, their history, art, and culture, and how it lives on today.
