☀️ A Quiet Mountain Escape Above the Okanagan
Off-Grid Trailer • 180° Panoramic Views
Please note: guests must bring their own bedding (sleeping bags, blankets, and pillows) and towels.
This is a place to step away from the chaos of this world.
This private 12-acre property gives you the space to breathe again. No neighbors, no traffic, no noise. Just fresh mountain air, wide-open views, and the kind of quiet that’s getting harder to find these days.
Time moves slower up here, in a good way.
Mornings are peaceful with coffee in the sun and a view that stretches for many miles. Afternoons are perfect for reading, relaxing, or exploring.
At night the stars come out in full force, with no city lights anywhere around. Its a sight to see
You’re way up the mountain here, but still close enough to enjoy the lake. A beautiful public beach on Okanagan Lake is about a 15-minute drive down the mountain, so you can easily spend part of the day swimming or relaxing by the water before coming back up to your quiet retreat.
This isn’t crowded camping. It’s your own piece of the mountain.
What’s On Site
• 32-ft off-grid trailer with A/C, heat, and a full kitchen
• 10x14 gazebo with lights and seating
• A nice soaking platform with twin soaker tanks (prefilled with fresh potable water from the well)
• Fire pit with two wooden chairs for sunsets and late-night fires
• Wide 180° views over the Okanagan Valley
Off-Grid (But Comfortable)
Power is supplied by a gas generator that runs the trailer’s electrical essentials — lights, outlets, and kitchen appliances. A full tank typically runs for about 8 hours, depending on usage.
The fridge, heater, and other core trailer systems run on propane, so they work quietly and reliably without needing much generator time.
You get the feeling of being off-grid without giving up comfort.
Why People Love Staying Here
• Complete privacy: 12 acres all to yourself
• Huge mountain and valley views
• Beautiful Okanagan Lake beaches just 15 minutes away
• Amazing stargazing with zero light pollution
• True quiet: the kind you can feel in your chest
If you’re looking for a place to slow down, clear your head, and get away from the noise of life for a bit, this is it.
Simple, quiet.

Weekend Trip to Wendego Lodge Off-grid & Free Sauna
Rustic escape! Bring water and keep the fire going.
We stayed three nights at Site #2 (log cabin) in mid-winter. Enjoyed cross-country skiing, ice fishing for trout, and snowshoeing the trails or around the lake. Hosts Melanie and Ray were exceptionally accommodating, and even ploughed the driveway before we departed. The Lodge was cozy, and the sauna was a delight. Would recommend for the rustic experience and the natural beauty of the area. Would return with sleds!

The lodge itself was clean, comfortable, and very welcoming, making it easy to relax and enjoy the experience. What really stood out was the journey getting there—the drive was absolutely beautiful, surrounded by stunning scenery that set the tone for the whole stay.(you just gotta stay a little patient and careful with some bends and turn especially in snow otherwise easy way up) The peaceful atmosphere and natural surroundings made it feel like a true getaway. I would definitely recommend Wendego Lodge to anyone looking for a relaxing retreat with breathtaking views along the way.

Wow, what a beautiful, tranquil spot this is. The trailer has everything you need for a comfortable stay, inside and out, with several different chill out area options. The views of the lake are just gorgeous, from sunrise to sunset, and the stars at night were incredible.
Being dog friendly was the icing on the cake! Quiet dirt roads were great for walks.
I honestly should have booked for longer. Already looking forward to our next stay.
Brock is a great host. :)

We loved staying on Denise and Korys property and getting to stay in Periwinkle was absolutely fantastic. They are incredible hosts and the property is large with plenty of tree coverage for those hot days and a beautiful beach right at your toes. We had our dog Rundle out who couldn’t have been happier to sleep in the shade and swim every day. Lots to do and see in the area that’s worth checking out! We’ll be back!

We absolutely loved our stay at Wendego Lodge! The sauna is a must-try — it made swimming so much more enjoyable, especially since the lodge is higher up and evenings can get chilly. (Tip: bring some warm clothes for the night!)
The whole experience was so close to nature, peaceful and refreshing. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, and we have to say — their sourdough bread is delicious, a real treat!
We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend!

It's a nice spot to stay with friendly hosts and wide open views of the surrounding hills. You'll be in a grassy fenced in area with no amenities too far away.
NOTE: Double check the destination if tapping directly from the Hipcamp app to Google Maps because the first place it sent us was down the wrong road. We had to type in the actual address, then we got there okay.

The hosts are incredibly welcoming and responsive to any requests or concerns. Periwinkle is very cute and the lake is fabulously clear and warm. Do remember that this is a 50+ year old vintage trailer so do go with the appropriate expectations as to little quirks and foibles. It was an overall charming and pleasant experience.
