The City of Houston in British Columbia claims to have the biggest rod and reel in the world. Unfortunately, the only photo Karen Duquette could get was through the window of a moving RV.

SPECIAL COMMENTS and PERSONAL OBSERVATIONSsmiley face
OF THE TWO RV GYPSIES

This is one of the nicest campgrounds that the two RV Gypsies have stopped at. It is located right off Highway 16 in the city of Telkwa, in-between Houston and Smithers. It was up for sale on this date so things may change, but the two RV Gypsies highly recommend this campground if it doesn't change. Below are several reasons why the two RV Gypsies think this was a great RV Park.

bullet There is a FREE high-pressure RV Wash to clean off the front of your RV and toad.

bullet The price is the same or less than other campgrounds with less amenities.

bullet Fast Wi-Fi with 10 GB (and FTP access), with password: this has been unheard of anyplace else.

bullet 66 channels on the TV that came in clearly, including a channel with a TV guide.

bullet 50 amp full hook-up was available. This is not common in Canada and even in a lot of the US.

bullet Hot showers, restrooms, SAUNA, plus a coin laundry in a locked building. (get a key)

bullet Smoking not permitted in or around any building.

bullet Boat launch area into Bulkley River

bullet a 10-minute walking trail to Telkwa

bullet friendly, polite person in the small office (the owner on this date).

bullet gravel/dirt roads and sites with grass at sites, picnic table in good shape, and fire pit.

bullet one negative - NOT the fault of the campground - a few trains came by with loud horns.

Check-out time was 11 a.m. There was no pool, but the two RV Gypsies do not use pools anyway, and the other Canadian campgrounds that the two RV Gypsies have visited did not have pools either. Pets allowed on leash, but not in the shower building. Firewood and laundry soap for sale in the office which was open 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Quite hours after 10 p.m.

The two RV Gypsies took a short walk down the hill to Bulkley River, past two very large fishing tents (they had electricity plus a big refrigerator inside each tent). Then the two RV Gypsies walked over a short bridge to see the river.
