Red Cariboo Resort –
a new holiday destination in Canada British Columbia
This new holiday destination is built on 60 hectares of wild land right at the Dean River (800m of the river is part of the property and only 300m away from the cabins). It was developed by Axel Opper, a German-Canadian, and has been under construction for several years.
The cabins are built from the wood of this area and have either one or two bedrooms. There is a lodge with a restaurant and stables, all built out of the same local wood, and so they form a natural building ensemble in which one feels completely comfortable. The interiors of the cabins and apartments are very cozy and align with the comfort of a typical outdoor resort.
Please look at the cabin description to learn more about the sizes and number of rooms.
Red Cariboo Resort is very pet-friendly. If you would like to bring your pet, please get in touch with us.
The property has two rustic barbecue/fire pits that can be used by large and small groups who appreciate an outstanding barbecue. There is a big community kitchen located at the main house. Shopping for groceries is possible at the village in Anahim Lake nearby.
Also, a lounge and reception can be found at the main house, our central point for guests. It is a great place to have a good conversation and to socialize while enjoying a delicious typical Canadian beer or whiskey. Guests can also enjoy playing billiards.
For those who want to discover nature, we offer a rental service for mountain bikes, canoes, boats, horses, snowshoes, and camping and fishing gear.
It is also possible to arrange guided tours for groups and families. We will set up a personal program according to your wishes.
Welcome to the Red Cariboo Resort.
Welcome to Nature’s Heartland, where land, story, and spirit are deeply connected. This is a place where the past lives on—not in monuments, but in the shape of the rivers, the sweep of the canyons, and the paths still travelled today. The Fraser River and its tributaries move through it all, a powerful force that has long sustained life: carving the land, feeding ecosystems, and guiding generations, from First Nations communities to Gold Rushers and newcomers since.
Adventure here is part of the story. For generations, these trails have carried travelers on horseback –traders, explorers, and adventurers alike. River routes challenge rafters with their speed and strength, while the landscape doesn’t just surround you–it moves with you. Caribou cross alpine ridges, wild horses roam the valleys, and eagles soar overhead, weaving their presence into the land’s enduring story.
And in every place, people carry the rhythm of this land. Indigenous Peoples have long cared for this place, inspiring ongoing stewardship through craft, ceremony, and story. Ranchers, rodeo riders, and artisans also live with a hands-on connection—weathering the seasons, building with care, and creating with pride.
Come find your own rhythm in Nature’s Heartland—where every path leads to something deeper.
