We loved our stay at Crazy Creek! The cabins feel like a luxury stay with all the amenities you need and are very well thought out. The pools are open all day and in the evening so there’s lots of time to relax and enjoy them, they are beautiful in the evening with the pools lit up! We also got to explore the ruins on the grounds of an old town and that was really cool!
I stayed here for 2 nights in my truck camper in one of their forested sites. Great campsite situated away from the highway, super friendly staff, nice shower/changing areas for the pools, 2 outstanding hot pools and a cold plunge. Fantastic way to relax after a day of skiing Revy. Just 30 min from Revelstoke and 38 min from the mountain. Will def stay here again in the future.
We stayed in a very nice comfortable cabin quite close to the hot pools. Train and highway noise was there but not noticeable to be annoying. The staff were lovely and helpful. The hot pools were very relaxing and in a nice setting. There is a couple of trails nearby to walk on for an hour or so. Cabin was mostly well equipped but could use a few more dishes.
We went on a slow Monday evening and it was beautiful with all the lights! Also quieter with the highway. A suggestion for the change rooms- to get one of those bathing suit spinners take out the water. We all thought the bleach content was a bit strong. But other than that we really enjoyed ourselves.
The staff were so welcoming and friendly. It was nice how they shared our excitement with us and offered heritage history of the resort. The cabin was clean and amazing, couldn’t get enough of the propane fire table on our private covered deck. The hot pools were so relaxing and the coloured lights at night were magical. Can’t wait to come back!
We absolutely loved our stay at this modern 2-person cabin! The space was spotless, beautifully designed, and perfectly equipped for a relaxing escape. The thermal hot springs were the highlight — soaking in the warm, natural water surrounded by nature was unforgettable. The cabin felt private and peaceful. The hosts were friendly, responsive, and clearly take pride in creating a great guest experience. If you’re looking for a romantic, rejuvenating retreat, this is the place. We can’t wait to come back!
Our stay at Crazy Creek was so much fun. The pools were so relaxing and our suite was so cozy and warm and romantic with our own fire pit out front. The staff were super friendly. We will definitely be back for a longer stay next time.
This was truly a winter retreat. We were upgraded into one of the Shuswap cabins and we were NOT disappointed! The cabin itself is beautiful, functional and exceptionally clean. It is set up very well work; tons of hangers and a cozy living room To enjoy the beautiful surrounding forest through the massive windows! The bed and bedding was incredibly comfortable. We went to the hot pools, you can hear the highway but it is still very relaxing and beautiful surrounding. Staff was always very helpful and accommodating. We will be back!
