We'll see y'all in the woods!
We will open May 15th for the 2026 season!
Please contact us before booking if you are seeking a family focused experience - we do not have a kids area or playground and require that children under the age of 16 be in the company of an adult at all times due to our proximity to Co Rd 742 and the Taylor River.

Such a quiet peaceful spot. Lovely grassy areas, trees and landscaping. Or fur babies absolutely loved the grassy dog run with the stream.

Another amazing stay at one of the best glamping set ups. The owners are hands on and have put so much thought and care into their property and it shows. They serve one of the best pre-adventure breakfasts known to man. You cannot go wrong staying here, it will be a highlight of your trip. The yurts are incredible and comfortable and the vibes are amazing! Book it already!

Highly recommend this spot. The cabin was amazing and the bed was great. It was a very hot weekend but the cabin provided enough shade for us and our dog at pretty much all times of the day. Leslie and Tyler were amazing. The biscuits and gravy in the morning is some of the best I’ve ever had. We will definitely be going back and bringing more people along with us!

Weekend Trip to Tomichi Creek Trading Post
Everyone was so nice! I stayed in Cabin 3 & it was just enough room for my dog and I. A little stop along the road, definitely worth the trip!

Man! Brigette was very welcoming, clear on guidelines, and my stay was amazing! They provided just enough for me; bed, heater(freezing temps), and restrooms with showers!
I stayed in Cabin 3. Had my own cooking equipment, firewood, sleeping bag, and portable fridge. Nights inside the cabin were peaceful, serene, and relaxing. the mornings and afternoon felt great! I wasn't there for the weekend which is when the kitchen and bar is open, but their store had everything you'd need for a remote stay. WILL SURELY LOVE TO BE BACK!!
