Our Story

Stewarts Lodge

Nestled in the heart of British Columbia’s stunning West Chilcotin, Stewart’s Lodge & Camps is a family-run retreat offering world-class fishing, outdoor adventure, and warm hospitality.

What began in 1953 as a humble camp on Nimpo Lake has grown into a cherished destination with cozy lakeside cabins, remote outpost camps, and access to untouched wilderness.

Our Beginnings

Bob and Ginny Stewart arrived in the Chilcotin in 1950, seeking the ultimate fishing spot. Guided by a local game warden, they discovered Nimpo Lake and, in 1953, set up their first camp with tents and rowboats on a stunning 40-acre property overlooking the Coastal Mountains. With help from the local Sulin family, they replaced their tents with log cabins, including a lodge on a high knoll.

Raising six children, the Stewarts expanded their operations, welcoming visitors by car and floatplane. By the 1980s, they passed the business to their son Duncan, who, with his wife Rhonda, grew the lodge into an international destination, adding canoeing, hiking, and outpost camps while preserving the family’s legacy of adventure and hospitality.
