Deep Mountain Yurt And Camp Site

4 sites · Lodging28 acres · Lillooet, BC
Welcome to 28 acres of forests, mountains, creeks, a river and all that comes with it! We live in a little off-grid cabin deep in the Yalakom Valley in a small community of rustic-living and friendly folks. Please note that this property is located 40 km outside of Lillooet. Part of the road is a dirt road and a bit bumpy, best for cars that don't mind roughing it a little bit. You also lose service 5 minutes outside of Lillooet. The property is surrounded by private lots. You can explore ours down to the river or you can drive to other locations like the Horsehoe (a great swim spot) hikes, Carpenter Lake (great for swimming, too), Lac La Mere (good for fishing) and much more. We have a have a vintage camper or a yurt folks can sleep in if you'd like some more space to stretch out! This is a rustic spot- if you are looking for fancy glamping this is not the space for you! Vancouverites, you've been warned!

The Sanctum on Highline Road

11 sites · Tents142 acres · Lillooet, BC
Situated on a mountain plateau overlooking beautiful Anderson Lake there is a rugged beauty to this land. Through a quirk of geography, our land is remote and wild while only being a 3 hour drive from Vancouver. Located at the beginning of the Highline Road popular with adventure seekers, this property is about a 10 minute drive from the Anderson Lake boat launch in D'Arcy. The lake is a fisherman's dream known for its rainbow and bull trout. Paddle boarding, hiking, biking, and motorized sports are among the activities enjoyed in the area. Upon ascending the initial gravel road climb, you will be greeted with fantastic mountain and lake views. Pines, cedars, firs, birch, and aspen make up the forest cover while junipers and wildflowers find their home in the clearings between the trees. Hot during the day and cool at night, the views truly glow just before sunset and then again as the moon rises to cast pale shadows on a land free from light pollution. The property is still under development, so please excuse the mess as we build out our off-grid spa and amenity spaces. Currently we only offer a compost toilet, but stay tuned for a further refined experience that will include access to water, showers, 6 person hammocks, and trails. At this time we do not allow fires due to local fire ban, but CSA approved propane fire pits will soon be available for rent.

Wild Farm with Mountain Views

6 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents26 acres · BC
Wild Farm with Mountain Views Camp with Bambi! Wildlife viewings including bears, moose, deer, geese, ducks, hummingbirds, warblers, finches and wolves. Big open 360 degree mountain views. Bright stars and open field where you can tuck into the treed edge next to the deers! The moonlight can be as bright as daytime and the stars are quite a sight. The RV sites are for RV's that are self-sufficient without the need for electricity nor water in or out (no dumping and there is no running water nor an outhouse at RV sites). RV's will be parking on grass and the site requires levelling. We can accommodate vehicles up to 39ft in length. Have your choice of bringing your own tent or using ours! New Glamping Dome Tents with Queen Sized Beds, table and chairs and hammocks including a covered counter for cooking . Unplug and Unwind to the sound of breeze through the trees and romantically flowing water from the nearby creek. There is no cell service or electromagnetic disruption here which makes for a beautiful peaceful mountain retreat. Bring your telescope for the opportunity to see clear, off the grid skies and epic star viewing for the astronomer in you. The bookings are quite private and there is a lot of space between sites. If one of the Dome tents is booked, I block off the other so you'll be the only ones on the whole gravel pad area. There are trees and visual space blocking anyones' view between sites Birkenhead Lake Provincial Park is walkable from our farm and there you can hike, fish, swim, paddle, and more! The road is a gravel road in winter would require 4x4. Otherwise we've seen many EVO cars (Prius Hybrid or fully electric Kia Niro) and even fancy Teslas and BMW sedan's on this road.

Camping near Pemberton guide

Overview

Just 20 minutes past the famous mountain town of Whistler (home of the 2010 Winter Games), this small village of a little more than 2,000 maintains a feeling of relative remoteness. Perhaps not surprising, it was unconnected by road until the 1960s, reachable only by railway. Now on the Sky-to-Sky Highway, Pemberton is set at the foot of the 2,500-metre Mount Currie, and a walk past the wooden shops and restaurants downtown can feel like a trip back to the old west. Now, it’s a paradise for anyone who loves the outdoors, those peaks and forests rising just outside of town.  

Where to go

Nairn Falls Provincial Park

Right in Pemberton, about five minutes from downtown, the crown jewel of this park is its 60-metre cascade, which tumbles, white and raucous, into a sapphire pool below. Walk the 1.5-kilometre trail to a viewpoint over the falls, and when you’re ready to cool off, take the two-kilometre trail to the swimming area at One Mile Lake.

Garibaldi Provincial Park

Just south on Highway 99, this massive, 1,800-square-kilometre park is named for the 2,678-metre Mount Garibaldi. Swim at five lakes, hike 90 kilometres of trail, cycle, climb, fish, or canoe—you won’t run out of outdoor options. And keep your eyes open for wolverines, cougars, and both black and grizzly bears.

Birkenhead Lake Provincial Park

Picture it—snow-capped peaks reflected in still waters—and you’ll get an idea of what this park is all about. Bike the eight-kilometre Birkenhead Lake Trail, fish for kokanee and rainbow trout, swim at the sandy beach, then hike to Goat Lookout for an overview of it all (and maybe spot a few goats along the way).

When to go

This part of the mountains can be complicated, with climate zones and weather systems varying wildly, even just a few kilometres apart. Like anywhere in this part of Canada, summer brings the best weather, especially if you plan to swim—cold, glacier-fed lakes finally warm up a bit by August. Early autumn is very pleasant although evenings cool off very quickly, and winters tend to be mild but rainy.

Know before you go

  • Highway 99—also known as the Sea-to-Sky Highway—connects Vancouver with Whistler and Pemberton. During weekends, especially in high season, it can be extremely busy.
  • Pemberton is a very small town, so it’s best to stock up on camping gear at one of the several shops in Whistler (or even better, a big store like Mountain Equipment Co-op in Vancouver).
  • If you’re looking for a night on the town, wash up and head to Whistler, just down the road for its dining, distilleries, and bars. But if you’re seeking solitude? Keep heading up the highway, which plunges into forest and peaks all the way to the horizon.
