Self-Guided and Self-Catered Cabin Rental

Our three small lodges are perfect for self-guided winter ski groups. The lodges are very easy to operate with propane heat and stove, and solar light, radio, and charger. The lodges are comfortable, but not luxurious- which helps keeps the price down!

This area is rightfully famous with backcountry skiers. For starters, it has one of the most consistent snowfalls in BC. Add incredibly diverse and manageable terrain to the great snowpack, and you have a classic ski destination. Groups can ski around the cabins without big exposure, though there is plenty of larger features for more experienced skiers. All in all, this is a very user-friendly place, and that is why 80% of our winter clientele are return guests.

Cabin Rental Rules

  • Trophy Chalet: Minimum 5 nights, except Christmas, New Year, Easter, and Spring Break when it is 6 nights

Booking Procedure

Wells Gray Adventures does not book cabins more than a year in advance. We prefer not to take payments from guests over a year in advance only for them to find out later they are unable to come. Realistically, it’s difficult for anyone to plan that far ahead. So, if you’re interested in booking a week in the cabins at Wells Gray Park, here’s our booking procedure:

  1. Groups who have spent a week with us have the option to rebook the same week for the upcoming season.
  2. Returning groups who would like to select a different week have priority for any available dates for the upcoming season.
  3. After this, anyone who has expressed interest in booking will be sent information about available dates by mid-April.
  4. To secure a booking, a non-refundable deposit of half the minimum cabin cost (approximately $450 per night) is required.
  5. Any remaining available weeks will be posted online.
