10 acres of untouched beauty! Extremely private with 100’s of acres of crown land on one side & a neighbour with 10 acres on the other. The lake is Caribbean blueish green & clear as glass. There are miles of trails to hike, 4x4, wild forage, or hunt in season. There are a couple other lakes nearby as well as the Fraser River & the Big Bar Ferry. Highly recommend!! One of our favourites is the Jesmond Fire Lookout. It requires a 4x4 vehicle or physical ability to complete a couple hour hike! We are a bit biased but our place is a very special one of a kind spot!

Yurt is paused for rentals as we await a new roof!
Only the Cabin available for now.
Welcome to 28 acres of forests, mountains, creeks, a river and all that comes with it!
We live in a little off-grid cabin deep in the Yalakom Valley in a small community of rustic-living and friendly folks. Please note that this property is located 40 km outside of Lillooet. Part of the road is a dirt road and a bit bumpy, best for cars that don't mind roughing it a little bit. You also lose service 5 minutes outside of Lillooet. The property is surrounded by private lots. You can explore ours down to the river or you can drive to other locations like the Horsehoe (a great swim spot), Carpenter Lake (great for swimming, too), Lac La Mere (good for fishing), Carol Lake, and much more.
This is a somewhat rustic and rugged spot- if you are looking for fancy glamping this is not the space for you! Vancouverites, you've been warned!

Discover a serene mountain retreat on an expansive lakeside acreage, stretching from the idyllic banks of Anderson Lake to the majestic Cayoosh mountain range. Marvel at breathtaking wilderness views where rugged mountains overlook the clear waters of Anderson Lake.
Escape to one of our cozy glamping yurts, 'The Sparrow's Nest,' or the 'Fox's Den' which both blend rustic charm with modern luxury. Ideal for couples or solo travelers, it offers the perfect sanctuary to unwind and reconnect with nature. While we are off-grid (no WiFi, solar-powered), there is cell phone service at the property.
Perched on an elevated forest bench, our glamping yurts both feature a private kitchenette, propane stove, wood-fire stove with ample firewood, mountain spring-fed water, solar-powered amenities, and an eco-friendly composting toilet.
This yurt, set 60 meters apart from our one other yurt, shares an outdoor shower with hot pressurized water. A scenic 5-minute hike leads to your semi-private beach—ideal for sunbathing, and swimming.
Indulge in an exclusive lakeside private cedar sauna experience for $99. Enjoy a three-hour private session with sauna and beach all to yourself. We provide the ambiance, wood, and ensure unparalleled relaxation.
If you would like to enjoy the outdoor propane fire you can use our outdoor propane fire pit for an additional $35 to cover the cost of the propane bottle.
We allow pets at the site for $50 per booking, maximum 2 pets. If you would like to bring a pet, please add the pet fee which is listed as an extra during the booking process.
Secure parking for one vehicle completes your tranquil escape. Book a yurt today for a harmonious blend of nature, comfort, and seclusion.
Although some of the photos on this listing posted by guests have kayaks and paddleboards, you will need to bring your own - they are not provided due to liability and insurance issues - we're sorry about that.
Detailed instructions on how to access the place will be provided after booking - we are located remotely 4 hours from Vancouver and 2 hours from Whistler.
We look forward to hosting you!

A perfect site for camping! Thanks to Carmen for her welcome, and to her friendly dog Molly for her company at dinner and who garded at night. The chalet for the toilets is very nice and clean. A hot shower would have been nice but we were warned before our arrival that it didn't work.
We recommend!

It wasn’t anything fancy but it was a nice quiet space to spend the night. The washroom was close by and kept very clean. Spent some time chatting with Carmen, she was a lovely host. We would definitely stay there again.

Weekend Trip to Deep Mountain Sea Cabin
Great spot in a quiet, peaceful location with beautiful views to wake up to. We planned to do more but ended up mostly chilling around the cabin (highly recommend the outside daybed!) and walking my dog to the river. Ren was really accommodating for my reactive dog, left the lights on for us as we were arriving late and provided some yummy home grown vegetables. Would love to stay again!

We loved the camping there! The two hosts were super nice people and we ended up chatting quite a while while they showed us around. The campsite is very nice too: the pit toilet has a water bucket to wash hands and soap. Each campsite has a picknick table. There was only one other guest that night, so it was relatively privat. Would absolutely recommend.

Stephan’s bus was great. Clean and rustic but quite comfortable. It is in a somewhat industrial setting but has a phenomenal view. Recommend for sure.

Carmen’s campsite, HayLmore, is amazing.
There is a washroom with a flush toilet and sink which is kept clean. Behind the bathroom building is a double sink, for dishes, dish soap included. Can and plastic recycling as well as a place for garbage- please keep garbage to a minimum as it’s a regular size garbage bin and there are other campers.
We stayed a ponderosa which to me is the most private spot, and I’ll definitely stay there again.
We had a 20’ pick-up with slider camper.
Molly (the dog) keeps to herself these days as she’s getting a little older, but she still loves pets.
Carmen sells her eggs, tomatoes (or veggies of the season too).
Thank you Carmen and Molly☺️🙂😎

I love the place , my family enjoyed our stay for 2 nights. The site was very spacious for a big family.
Ms. Katie was very accommodating and response quickly to my inquiries.
The only thing disappoints us was our fellow campers near the lake, they were not respectful about quiet time they were shouting and singing loud with their loud music until 2am for 2nights. They even had bonfire even if there is a FIRE-BAN during the 2nd night.
But over all we enjoyed our stay and will come back again.

3 nights at Lake Glamping with Beach and Sauna
We had such an amazing time at Anderson Lake! The Yurt was cozy and comfortable, the outdoor kitchen made cooking so easy and scenic, and the property was absolutely breathtaking! It is totally worth the drive and such a cool way to experience the area! Absolutely book the sauna, and bring your paddle boards if you can! Can’t wait to come back next year! :)

Amazing location and beautiful views! I really loved the covered area since I was tenting it provided great shade during the heat wave. Coming from out of province it was a bonus they offer firewood! Due to the heat wave didn't need alot but the crate was enough for a little fire each night I was there. Hosts were very help! Had a minor issue with a neighbour and their dog being loose and roaming my site. Where my dog is reactive I wanted to avoid any issues and she responded immediately and contact the neighbours which I was very greatful for!

Amazing, quiet place. Carmen was very responsive. Wasroom was impecable and dish washing station was very useful. Potable water was available too. The shower was not available yet, but we drove to Pemberton and showered in the rec centre for $4.50 each. We heard generators at night, but was not a problem for us (I always use earplugs for sleeping anyway, and my husband is a very good sleeper).
We had a few little walks to the creek. We saw salmon swimming upstream.
We went to Birkenhead lake a few times,, it’s like a 20 min drive. Totally worth it, it was not too busy and the beach was sandy.
We loved the place, We will definitely come back.

This was a little piece of paradise, tucked away in a quiet area with incredible mountain views. The campsites are similarly spaced to a provincial park, so don’t assume total privacy while there. My neighbors were quiet so it was no issue.
The dog was the best hostess, greeting everyone when they arrived and, of course, inspecting every meal to be sure it was suitable. :D
Carmen and Dale were so kind and flexible. Their farm is a delight, and they’ve made a high quality campground out of their land. Extremely clean bathroom and great cleaning station. (The shower is NOT hooked up, so don’t go expecting it.)
I can’t wait to go back and continue exploring!

Carmen's campsite near D'Arcy, BC was a real find. It's a little off the beaten path which is actually a good thing. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating and the property itself was well laid out and inviting. The icing on the cake was as we were heading west back to Vancouver and seeing the views of the mountains from that perspective. We'd highly recommend Carmen's land.
