everything you need. The property was huge
with the horses outside your bedroom
window (not at all in a bad way lol), a firepit,
and hiking trail. Allison is so helpful with
suggestions on things to do and directions
around the area. The property is right on the
hwy so easily accessible. We will be back!
P.S the amount of stars visible at night are
breathtaking

everything you need and is the perfect quaint
little getaway. Allison went out of her way as a
host to make it an excellent experience,
including providing information on the region
and introducing us to some of the animals.
Would strongly recommend to anyone!

by host who is incredibly kind and generous
with sharing the beautiful home and tales of
a well-travelled life. We had the opportunity
to meet all the animals and were pointed to
a great memorable trail that is challenging
but doable for novice hikers. Great place to
stop over in the Fraser Valley, lots of hiking
and natural beauty around. Comfortably slept
four of us and kitchenette sufficed for our
needs. We hope we can visit Allison and her
family again!


Comfy beds with lots of blankets and fun
selection of different board games to play.

She recommended us things to do in the area
and was extremely kind and welcoming.
We got to meet some lovey dogs and Allison
gave us some wonderful eggs!

We wanted a cute cabin, with great views
and in a dark zone for stargazing. This place
delivered. All the perks of camping (campfire,
stars, natural setting) with all the convenience
of a cabin (showers, kitchen, temperature
controls). Check-in was super-easy and the
fenced yard kept our 4 and 7 year olds
safe and happy to explore while we set-up.
Check out the on-location hike for a
breathtaking Canyon view! (About 15-20mins
for us and the kids.) What surprised us about
our stay was how Allison and her family went
way out of their way to give us and our kids a
fantastic experience.

nice and showed us the horses and chickens
as well as a local hike. My kids are asking to
go back again soon.

located right off of Fraser Lake! Allison was
a great host, responded very quickly and was
informative of any questions we had. We also
had the lovely chance to wake up to the sight
of beautiful grass field and roaming horses.
Would definitely like to stay there again
when we’re back in BC.

goat, Milky. The space was set-up with indoor
and outdoor games that kept our kids
entertained for hours. It was clear that the
family genuinely cares about hosting and the
guest experience. We all wanted to stay and
we wish we’d booked an extra night. This was
a great place to unplug and we’ll be back!

expectations we could have! Her place was
also nicer than expected, super clean and
even bed linens quality was great. Loved that
windows have real blackout curtains so kids
could sleep in! The farm was way more than
just some animals as her daughters also
played with my 6yo and Allison showed him
how things are done and he got to help a bit
with the horses and at the greenhouse,
picked eggs and pet their animals with
permission of course. Allison even gave us
veggies and more eggs for us to have while
there. My oldest was crying on our way out
and keeps talking about how amazing days
he had at Allison's farm.

to any family with kids that love nature and
animals and we would love to be back
sometime in the future! I can't say enough
about this place! Best Airbnb experience with
kids we have had so far!! Thank you so much
Allison and to your daughters! We truly hope
to be able to go back!

"home base" while we hiked and explored
the area. She was a fabulous host, offering
to help us with maps and information about
the area. It was clear that she wanted us to
have a great time, which we really
appreciated. The cabin is a good size for two
people or a small family, and had all the
amenities we needed. The campfire was a
great way to spend each evening, especially
our first night when clear skies allowed us to
do the best stargazing we've ever done. I
would recommend this spot to anyone
passing through, or one of Allison's other
listings. Her and her family are great hosts,
and you will feel well looked after.

We really enjoyed her tips about local sites
to visit. The farm was a perfect place for
stargazing too! A perfect getaway weekend.

it’d would just be like any other lodging.
Little did I know that I had signed up for the
perfect out of city get away experience!
The property is enormous. There are two
super cute And friendly dogs housed outside,
horses for you to admire, chicken coop for
your instagram story, apple orchard;
and essentially a private 30min-1hr hiking trail
in the back yard. The host was responsive to
our every needs, friendly, and gave insightful
tips throughout
WALK-IN SUITE
We have onsite accommodations for our guess who are signed up for multiple day programs. Currently we have a suite that will sleep 4 people comfortably with space to spare. Glamping tents and other full service suites are in the works.

South of the Farm (Yale)
Spirit Caves – a 5k trail near Yale BC with about 520m worth of vert. Start at Pioneer Cemetery (well marked trailhead). 5-6 small caves at top, as well as stunning views of Yale and the Fraser Canyon. 30 minutes from farm.
Yale Historic Site – recreating gold rush era life in the Fraser Canyon!
Alexandra Bridge – this little bridge was instrumental in establishing a connection from the coast to the east side of the Fraser Canyon on the during the gold rush of the 1860s. The bridge was originally built in 1865 but rebuilt in 1926… although the original footings remain (that’s solid building!). It’s an easy 1k walk from the parking lot where you can see the bridge – and sections of what little remains of the Cariboo Wagon Road, once providing overland passage from Yale to the Barkerville. 20 minutes from farm.
First Brigade Trail / Tikwalus Hertitage Trail – also called the “1848 trail” after the year it was modernized by Alexander Caulfield Anderson (of the HBC) who wanted to build a fur trading route from Yale to the Kamloops/Merritt area. Bemusingly, the route branches off into Bluff or “the 1958 trail” named for the time miners trekked northward to Lytton and Boston Bar. Although the trail has existed far longer as passage for the Nlaka’pamux (Thompson) First Nation people, who shared their trail with AC Anderson of the Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC), to use as and overland fur transport route from Fort Kamloops to Fort Langley. Sadly a coworker of Andersons decided a short-cut over the treacherous Manson’s ridge was more direct and would save time. Well, the route was quickly deemed too strenuous for the brigades and the first one lost 70 horses and one man (who committed suicide). There was only ever one more brigade that took to the trail, as an easier route was established through Hope. The trail did continue to be used by First Nations, miners, ranchers and gold seekers and was likely a god send for the 10,000+ who later arrived for the gold rush and needed to make their way north through the rugged Fraser Canyon.
The trail starts about 5k north of Alexandria Lodge, just north of the the tunnel on the west side fo the road, but the trailhead is on the east side of the road – so cross carefully! There is signage along the trail but if heading the Gate Mountain route you need to pay attention to the route near the end as the trail pas the campsite is not well trekked.
After passing the Lake Mountain Campsite you can continue to Gate Mountain (16km) or return via Bluffs (1858) to your car for a 13km/ 760 metre gain kinda day. 20 minutes from farm.
