Home to the Dunn Folkin' Around? Music & Arts Festival, our property is a 17 acre oasis, surrounded by various species of trees and wildflowers. Enjoy the calming sound of running water with our very own creek running through it. With Dunn Lake just down the road, Mount Baldy right out of the driveway, and access to the North Thompson River not far, it's our own piece of paradise. We have various tent campgrounds developed, and multiple glamping options available, we're sure to have something for everyone. Come out and enjoy the peacefulness that made us fall in love with the area. No words, or pictures will do it justice! We are located ~30 minutes from both Clearwater and Barriere, or a 15 minute drive to Little Fart. So, we are right in the heart of the Boonies. On your way out to the property, you'll likely question yourself if you're lost, but you will (eventually) make it! Dunn Lake Rd is what it is, and can be in various conditions throughout the year. If you want the feeling of isolation, and privacy, while being completely surrounded by nature, then this is place for you.

Beach camping near Clearwater with fishing guide

Overview

Situated in the beautiful expanse of British Columbia, Clearwater offers waterfront campsites that allow campers to settle into the area’s natural wonders. Wells Gray Provincial Park provides stunning waterfalls, numerous hiking trails, and kayaking opportunities on pristine lakes, while at Dutch Lake, campers can settle in for days of swimming, boating, and fishing accessible right outside the tent. For time in the rainforest, head out on a day trip to Blue River Safari, home to jet-boat adventures and wildlife encounters along the scenic Blue River.

Where to go

Wells Gray Provincial Park

Surrounded by serene landscapes and immense waterfalls, campers can immerse themselves in the beauty of Wells Gray Provincial Park. HIke to Helmcken Falls or Spahats Falls and marvel at the raw power of nature. Then explore Trophy Mountain and Moul Falls trails to see wildlife and waterfalls. Campers who are more inclined to water adventures can canoe or kayak on Clearwater Lake or Azure Lake. After a day in the park, settle into nearby cabins or campgrounds for tents and RVs with amenities like electrical hookups, clean facilities, and picnic areas.

Dutch Lake

Embark on a waterfront adventure and camp right beside Dutch Lake. The lake’s warm waters are spring fed, which makes swimming, kayaking, canoeing, or boating popular activities to do while there. Anglers will also enjoy fishing for various species such as rainbow trout and kokanee. With hiking trails that wind through nearby forests, campers can also spend time out of the water to spot local wildlife like the bald eagle. At the end of the day, head back to a lakeside campground to build a bonfire and enjoy amenities such as picnic tables, fire pits, toilets, and showers.

Blue River Safari

In the heart of the planet’s only inland temperate rainforest is Blue River Safari. Hop aboard a jet boat and cruise the pristine Blue River for the chance to encounter bears, eagles, and moose—all while expert guides provide insights into the area's ecology and history. Afterward, unwind at a nearby campground or private Hipcamp site, many of which offer a range of options including tent sites and RV campsites with hookups, plus amenities like picnic areas and private bathrooms.

When to go

Summers in Clearwater range from 20 to 30°C, making activities such as hiking, fishing, and canoeing very popular. Winters are chilly, with temperatures averaging around -5 to -10°C. Snowfall is common, which is great for campers who like winter sports, such as skiing and snowshoeing. Spring and fall bring milder temperatures and vibrant foliage as well as pleasant hiking conditions.
