Why teams come here
The meetings are great. The real work happens around the fire.
Anyone can book a boardroom. What a team remembers is the conversation that starts after dinner, when the laptops are closed, the fire is going and nobody is in a hurry to leave.
In the room
Focused sessions in a meeting room for up to 100, a short walk from where everyone slept.
Outside
Walk the creek, find a trail, or let the hot pools reset everyone's head.
Around the fire
Chairs in a circle, the stars coming out, and the honest talk you can't schedule.
From your office
Close enough for two nights away. Far enough that nobody pops back to the office.
Load up the vans after the morning coffee and you're at the fire pit by lunch. Crazy Creek sits on the Trans-Canada in Malakwa, just east of Sicamous, with a large parking lot for cars, vans and trailers.
North on Highway 97 to Vernon, Highway 97A through Enderby to Sicamous, then east on the Trans-Canada.
Highway 97A north through Armstrong and Enderby to Sicamous, then east on the Trans-Canada.
East on the Trans-Canada through Chase, Salmon Arm and Sicamous. One highway the whole way.
Also close: Salmon Arm about 45 min · Revelstoke about 30 min · Calgary about 5 hrs. Winter travel can take longer, so check DriveBC before you leave.
The meeting room
A real room for the real agenda.
Our meeting room seats up to 100 for a presentation, 64 at tables or 24 around a U-shape. Set it up the way your team works, and step outside whenever you need air.
- A bar and sink at one end of the room
- No commute between sessions and your cabin
- Breaks down by the creek or out on a trail
- Every cabin and suite has WiFi
Ten rows of ten facing the speaker, with an aisle down each side.
Eight tables in four rows. Good for workshops, breakouts or dinner.
Two banquet runs, so the whole group sits down together.
Everyone faces each other, with the open end for a speaker or screen.
Tap a floor plan to see it full size. Tell us your setup and AV needs in your inquiry and we'll confirm the details.
Around the fire
Where the real work gets done.
When the sessions end, the team heads for the fire. A ring of chairs, the forest going dark, the stars coming out. It's where the new hire finally talks to the VP, and where next year's big idea usually shows up.
- A large group fire pit with chairs for the whole team
- Hot pools open until 10 pm, last hour adults only
Campfires follow BC Wildfire Service fire bans.
Where the team sleeps
Everyone gets their own space.
No hotel hallways. Your team spreads out across forest cabins and suites, each with a kitchen and its own fire pit, and still meets at the same fire every night.
Nobody sleeps on a pullout or hide-a-bed. Bringing your own RV? Sites sit right among the cabins, and you get discounted rates on pool passes. See the cabins
Team building, built in
No ropes course required.
The best team building here doesn't need a facilitator. It needs a hot pool, a river beach and a good trail.
Hot pools and the cold plunge
Three hot pools and an 8°C cold plunge, included with every cabin and suite. Daring the boss into the cold plunge counts as team building.
Creek and river beaches
Beaches on Crazy Creek and the Eagle River, for a walk-and-talk or a quiet hour between sessions.
Hikes for every level
From easy forest walks to bigger climbs, there are plenty of trails nearby. Tell us your team's pace and we'll point you to the right one.
Nearby: Revelstoke is 30 minutes east for dinner out or a day on the mountain, and the Shuswap is just to the west.

Planning your retreat
Good to know before you book.
Book early
Next year's calendar opens at the end of November.
Groups get first priority. Send your inquiry now and we'll be in touch as soon as dates open.
Go midweek or off-peak. Spring, fall and winter give you more choice of cabins and a quieter resort.
Leave room in the agenda. The best conversations happen in the gaps, so build in pool time and fire time.
Bringing a bigger group? Tell us your numbers and plans, and we'll work out the best fit with you.
