LOCAL ACTIVITES & ATTRACTIONS
16 MILE CABINS
FISHING
Dease Lake is located on the Stewar-Cassier Highway in Northern British Columbia and is a popular place for travelers to stop for a restful day of fishing.
Dease Lake, Allan Lake and Dease River are popular hot spots for either fly fishing, spin casting or lake trolling. Catch a variety of different species of fish from our local lakes and rivers. Including lake trout, rainbow trout, Dolly Varden, northen pike, burbot or arctic grayling.
If you would like to relax and stay put close to home then you will enjoy the short walk right from cabins front door directly to the Tanzilla River. Relax and fish to your hearts content on a quiet secluded river bed for arctic grayling or rainbow trout.
wildlife viewing
Grab a hot cup of coffee and sit back on the front porch and watch our “live” wildlife channel. We have a local lynx which is seen routinely at the cabins hunting snowshoe hares, mice and voles in the back field.
Timber wolves travel through the property once a month on their hunting circuit. Moose, Bears, Weasels, Martins and a large assortment of migrating birds are some but not all of the local wildlife to be seen at 16 Mile Cabins.
