Vacation rentals in Bowron Lake

Mountain Thyme Guesthouse

Our 1930's decor reflects the culture of the working class gold miners of the 1930's and 40's who once made Wells the largest city in BC north of Vancouver! Privacy, unique accommodation features, all amenities, and a convenient central location. We're the gateway to to Barkerville Historic Park, the Bowron Lake CAnoe Circuit and the Cariboo Mountains. Today, the tiny town that remains retains its historic charm and period architecture and is now renowned for our Arts, History and Culture.

Our Second Floor Nest is Best!

Welcome home! You’ve made it to Island Mountain Arts’ (IMA) Artist-in-Residence building, which we have lovingly come to refer to as The Nest! After housing studies and fundraising, The Nest was acquired in 2014 to host visiting artists and artists-in residence throughout the year. During down-time, the space is rented out to friends like you, who are hoping to discover more of what the wonderful world of Wells can offer. Your stay with us in the Nest supports the Arts in Wells.
