About this property

Aspen | Riverfront Bell Tent

Escape to a secluded riverfront glamping retreat under the stars. Nestled on 10 private acres near Smithers, our Aspen Riverfront Bell Tent offers an authentic Canadian camping experience with the comfort of two twin beds, wood stove, outdoor hot shower, and riverside composting toilet with a view.

Relax with coffee on the deck while hummingbirds buzz nearby, spend your day fishing at Pat’s Pool, swimming, hiking, mountain biking, lounging in a hammock by the river or float the Telkwa from our boat launch. In the evenings, stargaze around the fire before settling in for a cozy night by the stove.

The tent is fully off-grid with Wi-Fi but no electricity—perfect for unplugging and reconnecting with nature. Guests have access to a shared outdoor kitchen with camp stoves, mini fridge, and basic cooking supplies, plus lawn games, garden, and riverfront trails.

Please note:

No cooking inside tents

Dogs allowed on the property but not inside tents

Wildlife-safe food storage rules apply

Open fires subject to local fire bans

Shared outdoor spaces may include other guests during peak season



Located 25 minutes from Smithers, 8 minutes from the Bulkley River, and close to incredible backcountry access, this is the perfect base for fishing, adventure, or a peaceful wilderness escape.

MUST LOVE DOGS — our two friendly resident pups roam the property and will likely stop by to say hello.
