Many surrounding peaks from which to choose for the hikers and bikers, and two hills 40 minutes away for skiers. The cabin is situated on 480 acres of land on which there are no other houses, and adjacent to publicly-accessible land that spans thousands of acres. There is wildlife of all kinds and beautiful views right into British-Columbia and Montana.

Wakita encompasses 25 acres of diverse wilderness and clearings. The land was developed in the 70's as an education, arts and health retreat and that history influences its atmosphere today. A small mountain creek meanders past gardens, berry patches, rustic cabins and a stage. The land is peppered with Ancient burned out cedar trunks that stand as a testament to the wildfire that razed the valley and the town of Fernie in the early 1900's. If guests are interested in a tour we will show you our favorites! Since Wakita borders on the wilderness of BC, we ask that our guests exercise common sense when it comes to food and fires. Upon arrival, we will provide information on the use of woodstoves, firepits, composting outhouses (for a-frame and campsites), etc. Wakita is a 15 min drive from all of the amenities and adventure available in beautiful Fernie, BC. Explore further up our road and you will find the trailheads for popular hikes to Mount Hosmer, the Three Sisters and Heiko's trail. Our Hipcamp accommodations consist of our glamping a-frame, an unserviced RV/tenting site and a fully serviced cabin. We look forward to being a part of your Fernie adventure!

Weekend Trip to Finnish Off-Grid Foothills Cabin

We stayed at this off-grid cabin and it had everything we needed for a comfortable, low-key weekend. The place was peaceful, well set up, and perfect for a winter getaway. Beautiful spot and a great place to unwind

Very beautiful stay. Craig the host was very helpful and ensured we were comfortable and ready for our time there, even though we arrived after dark. Lovely indoor camp fire, musical instruments, and a very comfortable bed. Definitely would love to go back and would highly recommend.

1 night at Wakita

Serene spot with a nice trickling stream going through the back portion providing a beautiful ambience at all times without being too loud. The cabin is cozy and protects well from the elements. The outdoor camp kitchen counter/sink is a nice touch. The shower gets hot on sunny days, as its solar powered. Works great. Ideal for couples or single child family.

Weekend Trip to Wakita

My partner and I adored our experience at Craig's a-frame cabin. Directions from Hipcamp were accurate which was helpful since you lose service along the short drive up a mountain road to the cabin. Craig was there to greet us, and had already chopped some wood for our stay, he was very nice, responsive and helpful. The a-frame lodge was adorable, well maintained and quite roomy, with a decent sized bed, dining table, and wood burning fire place, inside was overall a cozy vibe. Outside the cabin was serene - there is a stream running right beside it, with a densely forested landscape. Even with others staying close by its well secluded and quiet. Our only complaint is that their dogs didn't come up to visit us!

The cabin is a charming retreat in the middle of the forest, very private and quiet. There’s a creek right beside it, allowing you to hear the sound of running water all the time, which is very relaxing. Next to the creek, there’s also a little bench where you can enjoy wonderful meals. We were lucky to visit during raspberry season, as the place is surrounded by them, we even ate a few. The cabin is cozy and has musical instruments, so if you have this talent, you definitely won’t get bored. The bathroom is just a few steps away, as is the shower.

The bed in the A-frame was really comfortable The didgeridoo was a bonus 😀 We would recommend it to anybody who wants to have a great experience in the outdoors.

Weekend Trip to Finnish Off-Grid Foothills Cabin

If you expect for quiet off grid cabin, this is a place to stay. We stayed 2 nights in March aimed to go to Waterton National Park but wanting to stay in quiet forest feeling. Only 45 min to the national park. At this time, expect the snow still pouring to the ground, but this camp has a decent heat and inside camping stove as well as generator for the lights. Also a dog friendly cabin and our dog can go around the cabin off leashed (with our watch) since no other cabin around.
