The juice is not worth the squeeze. The hike there is mostly straight up over roots and sharp rocks. And while the lake at the end is beautiful, it's too cold to swim in enjoyably no matter how hot and sweaty you got hiking there. Just dipping my calves in I thought I'd get hypothermia. On top of it all there's these annoying mini yellow jackets flying around as well as aggressive flys that love to land on you. So while I might suggest doing this hike ONCE if I lived in Chilliwack (or closer), it's not worth the trouble if coming from Vancouver when you are considering the 4 hours of total driving time and the $60 in gas you have to spend. No thanks. Not worth it.

Surprisingly good. Has everything you need in a great location at a low, low price. Plus it's clean and there's no bugs. Everything worked (A/C, hot water, wifi) plus I was totally surprised by how quiet it is. I only booked it because I got in on the midnight flight and didn't want to spend much on a room I would be in for only 11 hours. Glad I picked this one. No it wasn't the biggest room but they do have bigger ones I saw when leaving. Only complaint is they gave me 2 small blankets instead of one big one that fit the bed. But the 4 nice pillows helped make up for it. Oh, and if you're arriving late, they should tell you you have to check in at the hotel across the street. I got scared when I arrived and nobody was there. Luckily some guest on his balcony at 1am was nice enough to tell me or I'd have slept in the open air lobby.
