We have the Northern Woods and Water booth set up at the Calgary RV show this weekend! Sharing about the beautiful areas along the highway and the great camping spots that are waiting to be enjoyed! Come on out, see the new RV’s and visit us! Getting lots of comments from people saying this is what they are looking for!

We like stopping at the Regional Park in Hudson Bay, SK. There is also a great museum there, both are definitely worth checking out!

This is an excellent way to enjoy the Peace River area!

Did you know?

We rent out high-quality whitewater rafts that can accommodate up to 10 thrill-seekers! For just $200/day, you and your crew can experience an epic float down the river.

Weekend idea!

Let us drop you off at the Shaftesbury Ferry with one of our top-notch rafts, and set off on a scenic journey down to the Lower West Peace Boat Launch.

Day 15 for us.. Day 17 and 18 of schedule
I woke up today at the beautiful Azouzetta Lake campground (no services here but you are on a mountain), a beautiful sunny day, we sat at the motor home table and looked out to see a bear sauntering through the campground! Always love seeing wildlife, but was happy I was inside and he was out! The drive through the south part of the Pine Pass and around MacKenzie Junction had tons of wildflowers in the ditches. We made a quick stop in Prince George to refuel the motor home and continued down to Quesnel. Another nice campground at Robert’s Roost. Had the chance to get a few aerial photos of these places too.

Day 14 for us… day 15 & 16 on the plan… well this was a Fun Day! Decided to leave the motor home in Chetwynd for the day and went to Tumbler Ridge to do a Wild River Adventures boat trip to Monkman Falls! Saw a really nice looking moose along the way but I was driving and unable to get a photo. The boat trip was amazing! And the bbq lunch was super tasty! After we got back to Chetwynd we got travelled down the Pine Pass to Azouzetta Lake to camp for the night… a beautiful campground with beautiful scenery!

Day 13 for us and continuing the alternative plan. Took some time in Ft St John, gave the motor home a bath and another little repair to the motor home hoping that it will help our refrigerator, then off down the highway to Hudson Hope and a tour at the WAC Bennett hydro dam. After the dam tour we continued in our way to Chetwynd.

Day 12 for us and Day 14 with changes to the itinerary! We started out from Peace River dropping off copies of the magazine in lots of places, Peace River, Grimshaw, Fairview, DUNVEGAN (I love that place in the Peace River valley), Spirit River, Baytree (diesel & ice cream), Dawson Creek and then to the farm by Ft St John! Had a wonderful visit with hubby’s uncle and aunt! Visiting with them is a special time each time we are in the area!

Day 11 for us, remainder of Day 13
Happy Canada Day!! 🇨🇦 🏕️🎈🍔🌭🍦🎂
It started out rainy but turned pretty nice! We didn’t drive far today as we stopped in McLennan and took in some of their Canada Day activities at the museum with food and live music! Continued on our way stopping in Falher and Nampa (great Canada Day cupcakes!) and then to our old stomping ground of Peace River. Our spot for the night is at the great campground RendezVous!! There were lots of activities going on here in Peace River today too!
I love that people love celebrating our country! We watched some people along the way who were obviously new to our country but were trying to figure out what every one was doing and trying to fit in with their Canada Day t-shirts and flags!
🇨🇦 Oh CANADA the true north strong and free! 🇨🇦

Day 10 for us and Day 12 and part of 13 of route plan
Things were getting set up on the stage and other things for the River Rat festival in Athabasca as we were getting ready to get back on the road. We headed for Slave Lake and there were events happening all along the lake. Spruce Point rodeo was on and then around the lake at Shaw’s Point they had Canada Day festivities on too! We stayed at Shaw’s Point overnight, we lucked out on a site as the park was busy! Sorry there’s no photos but I had a disaster with my phone that I was taking pictures with! ☹️

Day 9 for us and days 10 and 11 of the plan… too bad the hubby hurt his shoulder this spring so we couldn’t go golfing at Northern Meadows (there’s always next year)! On to Cold Lake where we did some laundry and checked out a couple of things at the local Can Tire. Things are ramping up all over for Canada Day celebrations! After a few hours in Cold Lake we headed down the highway again, through Lac La Biche (the beach area there has been greatly improved and people were taking advantage of the weather!) Ice cream in Grassland and stopped for the night in Athabasca. The River Rat Festival starts tomorrow June 30 and July 1. Have to check out the schedule! The campground is basically full so camping in an overflow area (we’re flexible)!

Day 8 for us and Day 8 & 9 of our plan…. Ok so we are skipping ahead abit. Started the morning at Candle Lake Sandy Bay Prov Park.. which is a beautiful big campground and the beach! Wow! My picture of the beach doesn’t do it justice! I’m including a few pictures from last night’s sunset. Too bad we couldn’t stay there and enjoy! The campsites are big, private and most have electricity. But the lure of the highway was urging us on…. Next up a stop in Prince Albert and then on to the smaller communities of Shellbrook, Canwood, Debden, Big River, Green Lake and Meadow Lake. We finally stopped for the night at the beautiful Northern Meadows Golf course located close to Goodsoil, SK. They have full service RV sites, cabins to rent and a beautiful golf course!
