Quel endroit magnifique ! J'aimerais beaucoup le voir en été. Elizabeth et son mari sont des gens formidables ; ils m'ont invité à prendre un café quand je leur ai livré un lave-vaisselle. 😇🤗

Un cadre absolument magnifique au bord du lac. Ma femme et moi y séjournons régulièrement depuis plus de 20 ans. Les propriétaires sont charmants et attentionnés. Les chalets sont toujours propres et bien entretenus. Certains sont entièrement équipés : douche, grand réfrigérateur, cuisinière, ustensiles, etc. Les emplacements de camping sont simples mais bien entretenus, propres et spacieux. Rampe de mise à l'eau et quais en gravier, belle rive et sentiers de promenade. Excellente pêche sur le lac, et de nombreux petits lacs à proximité sont parfaits pour la pêche à la mouche, avec une abondance de truites. Autonome en énergie, mais avec un système d'énergie solaire performant et l'électricité dans les chalets. On adore cet endroit !

J'ai récemment organisé une sortie de pêche à la mouche au Nechako Lodge et j'ai été très impressionné. J'ai emporté mon camping-car et j'ai séjourné dans l'un des emplacements. Les emplacements n'étaient pas équipés de branchements, mais ils étaient abordables, spacieux, faciles d'accès et offraient une vue imprenable sur le lac. Le propriétaire était extrêmement sympathique et, même si je n'ai finalement pas séjourné dans l'un de leurs chalets, j'envisagerais certainement de le faire lors d'un prochain voyage.
