Arguably one of the most iconic views in Pemberton BC. A short drive to Whistler, secluded lakes, star gazing and epic mountain hikes. Flat grass camping with un obstructed views of Mount Currie and the neighbouring farm fields. Abundant wildlife including deer, coyotes and bears. This site has no services and is a place to camp for the night with a great view. No bathrooms so campers MUST have a RV with a toilet installed.

Bring your telescope for the opportunity to see clear, off the grid skies and epic star viewing for the astronomer in you. The bookings are quite private and there is a lot of space between sites. If one of the Dome tents is booked, I block off the other so you'll be the only ones on the whole gravel pad area. There are trees and visual space blocking anyones' view between sites Birkenhead Lake Provincial Park is walkable from our farm and there you can hike, fish, swim, paddle, and more! The road is a gravel road in winter would require 4x4. Otherwise we've seen many EVO cars (Prius Hybrid or fully electric Kia Niro) and even fancy Teslas and BMW sedan's on this road.

Stayed 3 nights so that we could explore Whistler and Pemberton. Lovely site with an amazing view of the mountains. Some road noise but it was quiet at night. Gabe was very friendly and a gracious host. We even saw a bear chased up a tree by a dog across the road! We were sad to leave the spot.
