Fish, Birds & Animals at Holleyville, Hatzic Lake, B.C, Canada
Watch Eagles, Osprey, red wing blackbirds, swans, ducks, owls and even turkey vultures from the shore or from provided kayaks as you paddle Hatzic Lake and the sleepy calm slough teeming with wildlife. Its impossible to stay at this Air B&B on a 33 acre old tree farm with 900 feet of south facing shorefront and not see the spectacle of nature; from the small hummingbird who built her nest beside the laundry room to the big black bear that visits the berry field you’ll see it all! Hatzic Lake is 90 min E. of Vancouver, 30 min N. of the US border and strategically placed on huge bird migration paths.
Stay here and you are close to the Harrison river for exciting paddles, a 45 min drive to Harrison Hot Springs with a natural public steamy pool, and close to incredible hiking, 5 minutes to Cascade Falls & Trails, 30 min to Bear Mountain for bike trails and Sturgeon sport fishing on the mighty Fraser River which is 850 miles long . Fish Hatzic Lake from the private dock or kayak and you may catch Bullhead, Carp, Chum, Coho, Pink Salmon, Trout, Bass & more. Stay on the tree farm hanging out with the resident friendly donkey & goats watching the Lake Or check out the Old Dewdney Pub (The Church of the Blues), 10 min away for a truly unique experience dancing & listening to Live Music outside in summer.
The largest migration of eagles in the world, 35,000 birds, will be visiting between November -Februrary when the local ski hill Sasquatch Mountain Resort 40 min. away in Hemlock Valley will be open so Holleyville is good for winter too. Hatzic Lake is a key spot on the scenic 7 birder tour.
