Cariboo - Deluxe Wilderness Getaway
British Columbia
More Activities

Canoeing
Explore the private lake by water. The ranch has 2 canoes and a weathered rowboat. Investigate our flora and fauna - an old beaver lodge, unusual breeds of wild ducks and geese, and brilliant yellow water lilies. On the far shore, tucked at forest's edge, you'll find ruins of the homesteader's cabin.


Nature Walks
The area is ideal for naturalists and avid bird watcher's alike, as the ranch has completed a conservation project on the lake in partnership with Duck's Unlimited Canada. This has enhanced the already thriving ecological system.

 
Learn about the habits and characteristics of the animals that make their home here: moose, deer, bear, cougar, coyote, wolf, eagle, owl, and many of nature's precious song birds. And don't forget the little rascals - squirrels, chipmunks and weasels, plus an abundance of insects and aquatic life.
 
Outdoor Games
Anyone for horseshoes? Or how about ranch style grass hockey? We provide cut-off wooden hockey sticks and a tennis ball, as well as log goal posts set out in the meadow. You help make up a team that's ready for some good old-fashioned fun and exercise.
 
Fly Fishing
There are numerous excellent fly fishing lakes and rivers within a 25-minute drive of the ranch, and our staff may chauffeur guests if requested. A private fishing guide is available when arranged in advance. Fishing licenses are available at the ranch, but please bring your own equipment.

 
Evening Entertainment
The relaxed ambience at the ranch is one that reflects quality living, freedom, and good fellowship - so we encourage a selection of unstructured evening activities that we hope will enhance this character. We suggest fireside, homespun story telling or games like Charades and Trivia Pursuit. Just curling up beside the woodburning stove with a glass of wine and a good book may be a pleasant option for you. Some nights there may be a nature slide show, or western dance lessons. On others, we may organize a campfire sing along.

Massage
Soothe your trail weary muscles at day's end and treat yourself to a wonderful massage in the privacy of your own room. Our massage therapist is available at an extra cost if booked in advance.
