The best place I have been for a family gettogether
I can describe the place with the name "God's Peaks" I have been there with my family all of ages kids with grandparents and had a wonderful peaceful time while the kids have enough to explore in this vast acreage. A remote place with all that you need. Mark has provided us an overview of the reason behind the name and offered the kids for a visit in the barn. The pictures say only 20%, you need to experience the rest 80% by living. I will definitely recommend visiting this place.

Amazing location
Location of the property was amazing it was on top of the hill very clean and no property Marc was a great host he even came in and help us start a fire in the fireplace the day after we checked in. The property was half an hour away from the golden. If you’re planning to have a party or if you’re planning to Have a dinner please make sure you have everything you need otherwise you have to drive 30 minutes to the garden. overall it was a great experience an amazing location with 360 mountain views.

Great family spot
Had a family reunion here and it was absolutely perfect. Had lots of room and bathrooms. The only downside was it was quite far from anything and the gravel road would be difficult for a small car. Other than that it was lovely!

About the host

Hosted by Mark Dyck

Host profile image
Mark is the husband of June, and the father of 5 beautiful children. He has had a career as an electrical engineer; at the same time making sure that his hands stay calloused and his logic practical while working as a part-time rancher. Now he is still "in school", an apprentice of Jesus, learning from Him how to live his life.

It was in Mark's mind that the dream of God's Peaks Lodge was conceived. When he and June moved to BC to God's Peaks Ranch in 2009, he already had the idea of creating a place where people could come together to consider the big questions of life; where answers that Jesus offered as truth might be discussed, understood, and ultimately known. In the fall of 2017 the construction of the lodge began, and his vision moved one step closer to reality.

Why they chose this property

Located on a working Cattle Ranch overlooking the Columbia River between the Rocky Mountains and the Purcell Range - from here you have access to Banff National Park, Yoho National Park, the Columbia Wetlands Conservation Area, Kootenay National Park, Glacier National Park, and Kicking Horse Mountain Resort - a lifetime of adventure awaits!
The lodge is set on a secluded piece of the mountainside well away from any close neighbors with panoramic 360 degree breathtaking views.

What makes this property unique

Here we invite you to slow down and step away from your busy life in order to find life. You can take time to consider the answers to life's big questions while you view the splendor and majesty of the unspoiled creation and reflect on what God has communicated to us. Reality can be known if we look for it.
