10 acres of untouched beauty! Extremely private with 100’s of acres of crown land on one side & a neighbour with 10 acres on the other. The lake is Caribbean blueish green & clear as glass. There are miles of trails to hike, 4x4, wild forage, or hunt in season. There are a couple other lakes nearby as well as the Fraser River & the Big Bar Ferry. Highly recommend!! One of our favourites is the Jesmond Fire Lookout. It requires a 4x4 vehicle or physical ability to complete a couple hour hike! We are a bit biased but our place is a very special one of a kind spot!

The Sunset Knoll Site
My second time back here and the site keeps getting better! The view from the knoll is simply divine, hosts are helpful, and the privacy is nice. We took the canoe for a ride and had a great time on the lake. I'll be back again ❤️

Look forward to revisiting!
'Paradise' gets thrown around quite a bit when describing nice places, often hyperbolically. Describing Katie and Melissa's property on the shores of Big Bar Lake as a slice of paradise, however, would be completely accurate. On the lake, with multiple docks and numerous watercraft to enjoy, hammocks to lounge in, a cow trail that leads into the neighbouring provincial park, and each site having good privacy with ample room for multiple tents / small campers, all make leaving the Sunset Knoll a tough thing to do. The drive out to the property is enjoyable and on a dirt road suitable for any vehicle (but watch for livestock as it's an open range). Katie is very responsive to any messages, and it's clear a lot of love has gone into creating such a great spot. I would surely stay again!

The site was well maintained, loved the common area deck on the lake. Big bar lake is gorgeous and warm. Great for those with dogs as Big bar provincial site will not allow dogs on the beach or playground. We have already booked our next trip to this site.

The Sunset Knoll Site
Truly a retreat
I wish that I lived closer so the Knoll could be a regular place to retreat to! From the start - communication was great. The road in was longer than we had realized - it is between the 37 & 38 markers but is 34kn. If you see the sign for Provincial Park you’ve gone a smidgen too far. We arrived at sunset…and wow! Definitely worth the ride! Everything was as described and as the positive reviews already shared. The sites are far enough apart to feel private. The Sunset Knoll site is extra special with the view and covered pavillion which we were grateful for on the rainy day. We used the canoe and kayaks, and also went into the Provincial Park for their nature walk which we highly recommend. There were definitely mosquitos, bring a screen tent if you have one. If I didn’t live in Oregon in the States I’d already be planning my return trip. I’ll just have to visit again in my dreams.
