Description
We are a 14 room lodge with an organic garden and greenhouse in the stunning Bella Coola Valley, BC. The heart of the Great Bear Rainforest. We are family owned and have gotten so busy we can't keep up on our own and we live in such a small remote area . Bella Coola Valley is 450kms west of Williams Lake, BC on the Central Coast. We are surrounded by enormous, dramatic mountains and primeval temperate rainforest, which is home to our coastal grizzly and black bears (one of our prime tourism draws!). Water surrounds us in the form of creeks and rivers that pour off the hillsides and into the ocean a few kilometers from our door.

Looking for someone skilled in any aspect of tourism to help around lodge and in gardens. Could be- tending garden, weeding, lawn mowing, painting, help with minor maintenance & painting, help with housekeeping, helping with eco-tour logistics, shopping for supplies, etc. Benefit is living in one of the most remote and pristine wilderness areas of the world! We have LOTS of German tourists so someone who spoke German would be a huge asset.

If you enjoy the outdoors, this is a fantastic place to be but it is important that you are able to be self sufficient. Having a vehicle is a huge plus. On your time off you can access mountain biking, hiking, climbing,kayaking, or check out some First Nations culture. There are so many opportunities right outside our doorstep.

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer (Eva & Berend)

Eva is a wonderful Workaway, she is a hard worker, took initiative and will always volunteer to help no matter the situation. She got along great with all the staff which lead to many staff hiking adventures (she doesn't shy from anything regarding the outdoors). Her independence, kindness, sense of humour and ability to work hard while always… read more

I had an amazing time, volunteering in the Mountain Lodge!
Very nice located, close to here, in between mountains, forests, waterfalls and great hiking trails, I had the possibility to stay with very kind and generous people: the owners Jayme & Pete, managers Erin and Keiran, and other Workawayers.

Thanks you very much for sharing a very nice… read more

I stayed with Pete and Jayme at the lodge during the summer of 2017 and I couldn't have asked for a better first Workaway experience! Pete and Jayme are some of the most friendly and generous people I have ever met and they did an awesome job of making it feel like home. The work was never too difficult and there was plenty of time to go out an… read more

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer (Martin)

Martin was a great asset to our team. Each job he was assigned he did quickly, efficiently with a great attitude. He is a great independent worker as well as a great part of the team. We all wish he could have stayed longer and wish him all the best for the future.

I stayed with Holly & Fraser in August 2015. I've been on 4 Workaways, but this one was the best and memorable one for sure! Holly and Fraser are the nicest people ever, and very easygoing and relaxed bosses. I had such a great time, that it was hard to leave!

The area is beautiful, lots of great hikes and if you are lucky you see a couple of… read more

This was my first workaway experience and the fact that I origanally planed to stay 2 weeks and ended up staying there for 3 months explains everything. Holly and Fraser are such lovely, generous, easy going and funny people. All the stuff members are just awesome and I had the best summer of my life. I did mostly housekeeping but also a little… read more

Hagensborg is one of the most beautiful places we have ever been and we can't thank Holly and Fraser enough for the opportunity to work in such an amazing place with such an awesome group of people. We stayed for just over a month and were not ready to leave. The work was laid back and varied. Holly puts up a work schedule in advance so its easy… read more

This was my first workaway experience and i couldn´t have had any better hosts. Holly and Fraser are easygoing and very nice people. In your free time (which i had lots of :) ) they can always recommand you hiking trails or show you some parts of the bella coola valley. The whole team is fun to work with and they are always in a good mood, even if… read more

Arlette was an absolute pleasure to have work with us! She picked duties up quickly and was always in a positive mood, always had a smile on her face and always willing to lend a hand, even when not 'on shift'. We are all going to miss her and wish her the best in life.
