Our cozy, rustic off grid yurt is located 20 min west of Golden in the Bleaberry Valley. It is nestled on the side of Willow Bank mountain. The views and nearby activities here are world class. The yurt has the necessities you need to have a comfortable stay anytime of year but is a very basic and rustic place, best suited to adventure seekers. Before booking this large TENT please take a minute and read all about the unique amenities (or lack thereof!!!) that we offer... or don’t :-).

Authentic Rocky Mountain Retreat Near Golden, BC Nestled in a peaceful mountain valley along the Blaeberry River, the Blaeberry Chalet and Blaeberry Cabin offer a true escape from the noise and pace of modern life. Set on a private 11-acre forested property just 20 minutes from Golden, BC, these two unique, hand-built cabins were crafted by a former Swiss owner whose alpine heritage is reflected in the craftsmanship and character of the buildings. The larger Blaeberry Chalet is constructed from logs harvested directly from the property, while the smaller Blaeberry Cabin features beautifully rough-cut milled timber, giving each structure its own distinct personality. Both cabins exude an authentic Rocky Mountain pioneer-era atmosphere while offering modern conveniences to ensure a comfortable and relaxing stay. Here you'll find the kind of quiet that’s increasingly rare — star-filled night skies, fresh mountain air, mountain views, and the sounds of nature right outside your door. Wildlife sightings are common and may include deer, elk, eagles, and other native species. The Blaeberry River is less than a 1 km walk along a nearby trail, offering easy access to one of the valley’s most beautiful natural features. This property is the perfect basecamp for visitors wanting to disconnect from urban life and reconnect with nature while experiencing the spectacular scenery of British Columbia’s Rocky and Purcell mountain ranges. Whether you're visiting for adventure or relaxation, you'll experience the authentic rhythm of life in a rural BC mountain valley. Conveniently located near Golden, the property provides easy access to world-class outdoor adventures including: • Hiking in Yoho, Glacier, Kootenay, and Mount Revelstoke National Parks • Skiing and snowboarding at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort • Whitewater rafting on the Kicking Horse River • Wildlife viewing and photography • Backcountry skiing, touring, and mountain biking • Fishing, paddling, and endless outdoor exploration opportunities Whether you're seeking adventure or simply a peaceful retreat, these cabins provide a genuine Rocky Mountain experience in one of Canada’s most spectacular natural settings.

The yurt was amazing! The hosts were top-notch! The trip was super comfortable and enjoyable and I would recommend it to anyone. Even the "shower" facility, which seemed daunting at first, turned out to be a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

We had a lovely stay! Anna and Casper were very friendly and helpful. The school bus was such a cute and unique little place. The heater kept it warm and cozy at night, and having Wi-Fi and access to a shower was definitely a big plus. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily come back!

Lovely, homey, comfortable and easy access. Really enjoyed watching a movie after our hot tub experience. The bugs aren’t great so I would suggest maybe a bug net around the hot tub

Easily the best stay of our trip! We stayed in Big Bend, which had beautiful views of the mountains. The hosts have everything you need to enjoy your stay. Propane stove, BBQ, air fryer, cooking equipment, plates, bowls, cutlery… you name it. The bed is comfy and has a heating pad for chilly nights, flushing toilets, and probably our favourite… the outdoor shower! The hosts are attentive, kind, and very welcoming. It’s apparent they take very good care of the space and want to make each stay enjoyable. This will always be an easy ‘yes’ to stay here.

Randy and his wife did an tremendous job with the Tealy Wheely! It's cozy, functional and well equipped! Outdoor kitchen and hot shower are amazing. The site had a gazebo with mosquito nets all around so we could spend time outside despite the bugs. Will be back and would recommend to anyone that wants to explore the area.

We had a great time at the Big Bend tent. Geneviève had everything we needed for our stay and was a kind and attentive host. The heater in the tent and the heated mattress pad kept us toasty warm during the night even though it was around zero, and the warm outdoor shower was a beautiful thing to wake up to. We definitely could not recommend enough!

The tent was a good size (for the 2 people it was booked for), the projector was top quality and a really good addition. Ended up watching a film and some tv to fall asleep to, which was great. The tent and bed were clean, and the utensils were sufficient for our short (3 day) stay. As someone who doesn't camp often, I was impressed with how inoffensive the smell of a composting toilet was. Only slight issue is that the water in the hot tub was a bit green, but appreciate that this may be caused by the water supply! Overall a great stay, and if im back in West Canada, id definitely stay again

This was a highlight of our trip to Canada. The views are simply stunning, the outdoor shower with a view was gorgeous, the portable toilet was clean and the supplied cookware was everything we needed. We had 2 nights and wished we’d stayed longer. The host was also very helpful and responsive to messages. Highly recommend.
