1. Martens Resort on Timothy Lake

(3)

66km from Williams Lake · 8 sites · RVs, Lodging · 108 Mile Ranch, BC

Let's be real...when booking a lakefront vacation in BC it's all about the lake and Timothy Lake will not disappoint. Timothy Lake is the perfect size, large enough to be unrestricted and offer great fishing, but small enough where you aren't always battling waves. As you venture from the shoreline you'll eventually loose site of the resort and soon find a public sandy beach, an uninhabited island, and a water channel connecting into Dempsey Lake. We've never heard that Dempsey is a great fishing lake, but it is a cool journey by paddle or small boat, and shows just how awesome the natural world is.....but watch for underwater branches throughout the channel cause a wrecked prop can make a good mad a bad mood - really quick. Located off the beaten track, Timothy Lake is seldom used by weekend warriors and is never too busy - making it great for swimming, water skiing, fishing or just floating around in one of those giant inflatable flamingo's...... if that's your thing. **There is a pet fee at $55/ per pet, you can add this to your booking at checkout.

Weekend Trip to Kodama Institute and hobby farm

This was our second time at Dean’s property and it was just as peaceful and relaxing as the first. This property has river front views and only the peaceful sounds of the birds and the river.

Weekend Trip to Martens Resort on Timothy Lake

Beautiful setting and view of the lake. Lara and family are kind and welcoming. The details and photos that are posted on HipCamp are accurate. We will be back for more camping. Hipcamp came through for another great camping spot. The resort is well maintained and safe for kiddos. We loved our stay our plans just didn’t fit a longer stay. Oh and the road is paved and in good condition.
