Stay Clearwater in British Columbia is positioning itself as a versatile accommodation option for travelers exploring the North Thompson Valley and Wells Gray Provincial Park.
Located in Clearwater, the property offers multiple lodging options, including glamping cabins, serviced RV sites, and tenting areas, designed to meet the varying preferences of guests traveling through or staying longer to explore the region.
Situated on the route between Vancouver and the Jasper Rockies, Clearwater attracts both overnight visitors and those seeking access to the area’s renowned waterfalls, trails, and natural attractions.
The property’s proximity to local amenities—within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and Dutch Lake—adds to its appeal for tourists looking for convenience alongside a natural setting.
Guests can choose from several glamping cabins along the Clearwater River, each equipped with heating and air conditioning, mini fridges, coffee machines, and Wi-Fi.
While these cabins do not include kitchens, they are supported by communal washrooms described as “spa-like.”
Units such as Breccia, Slate, Quartz, and Jade provide river views, while others like Marble and Granite offer larger layouts with multiple beds and mountain or property views.
Stay Clearwater also caters to RV travelers with full-service sites that include 30-amp power, potable water, sewer hookups, and Wi-Fi.
These sites overlook the Clearwater River and provide access to the same communal facilities as the cabins.
Additionally, tenting sites with partial services are available for guests seeking a more traditional outdoor experience, offering power, water, and Wi-Fi within a short walk of the washrooms.
On Booking.com, Stay Clearwater has earned positive feedback, with one guest noting, “Cozy cabin in a great location.… very comfortable beds,” while another wrote, “Clean and cozy with amazing river views, felt like home.”
For professionals in the outdoor hospitality sector, Stay Clearwater reflects the growing trend of hybrid lodging models—combining glamping, RV, and camping facilities to appeal to a wider market.
The operation demonstrates how diversified accommodation offerings can enhance year-round occupancy, attract different traveler demographics, and maximize the use of natural settings without extensive infrastructure development.
This mixed-use approach is increasingly relevant for park owners and campground operators seeking to balance guest experience with operational efficiency in competitive regional tourism markets.
