  Autres infos...

  Our prime operating season is May, June, July, August and early September. In April, we need helpers to open our resort and begin our seasonal projects. Helpers enjoy many of the activities right at our resort. Our location is semi-wilderness and we are off the grid, so we live and work in the great outdoors.
  
  Off days will involve relaxing or enjoying outdoor adventures: imagine canyons, lakes, rivers and mountains.......all in our backyard. We do offer unique events such as our songwriting and yoga retreats and summer music entertainment.
  
  We have high-speed Internet and cell coverage, even though our location is off-the-beaten track. Thus, you can stay in touch with friends and family. We can arrange to pick up helpers in Boston Bar BC (17 km from us) and we generally can arrange rides from Hope BC most days (you can take a bus from Vancouver to Hope BC. Transport from the Vancouver area may be offered but not guaranteed.
  
  Given our beautiful, natural setting in the Canadian wilderness and our commitment to health and well-being, our resort is a smoke-free environment. All helpers must respect our smoke-free policy and understand that we all work hard and play hard. Thank you.

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  Yes, but keep in mind we are off-the-grid and do not have fiber or the high speeds of urban areas. Our proprietary Internet and WIFI system enables most normal business operations and streaming but would not suit gamers, high bandwidth users and those requiring uniformly fast speeds. If you have intensive needs, then our remote location is not ideal. However, if you need daily or weekly Zoom calls with the office or team, standard Internet for emails and streaming then we are an ideal location for you.

  Espace pour garer des vans

  Vans, converted cars/trucks for sleeping are welcome. Larger mobile homes/RVs could be possible for a full summer season helper.
