The owner, Lothar Vollmer, is a huge problem, and definitely enough to ruin a holiday — in my experience, bullying, manipulative and spontaneously aggressive. He did seem to wait to be offensive until he sensed that we were unlikely to leave; and once we felt stuck there he set about making our lives miserable. Ask him a question and he... More

This place is beautiful and very well kept. I had read some reviews and was a bit nervous about Lothar...he was so kind and accomodating. I needed to get a couple of things from the general store, which was closed, as I was walking there Lothar drove by and asked if I needed anything there and he opened up and... More

Bekcer's Lodge Bowron Lake Adventures Resort is amazing. My grade 12 outdoor education class has been going to the Bowrons for the past 9 years and Becker's Lodge has always been there with their excellent service. Lothar is old school, his gear is always in great shape, clean and ready to go. He is awesome with my students and has... More

We've stayed at Becker's Lodge for many years, and have always rented canoes there, and have never had a problem. The cabins have always been well-furnished and immaculately clean, the canoes have always been top of the line and well maintained. And the General Store has an amazing variety of items that will alleviate frustration and make your trip complete... More

the place is stunning, the veiw, the cabins so well made up equipment pristine, and the chain was as beautiful as we hoped. But that all goes out the window when you meet the owner, his wife was lovely giving help and instruction. but he was just plain rude, i do not care if that is his humor it is... More

I had occasion to look at Trip Advisor's ratings for Becker's, out of curiosity, as I was planning my next canoe trip. The comments here, have prompted me to write my own reply. I have delt with Lothar and his staff since the early 90's when he first bought the place, and have found his service to be consistantly top... More

My wife and I decided to start our Bowron Lake adventure by staying at Beckers Lodge and using him as an outfitter. Its a beautiful location, the accomodation is fine and the food good. All this was ruined by the propieter who was the rudest and most arrogant person I have ever met.. After asking him a question about the... More

The irony of this is, he has a tripadvisor decal on his office door. Does he not care what people are saying about him. Do everyone a favour - Dont give this guy a cent and save yourself frustration, aggravation & bad advice. He is abusive, evasive and condescending. He takes every chance he can get to be a jerk....

We booked our first Bowron Lake circuit trip with Becker's Lodge. This beautiful resort has a stunning view of Bowron Lake. The charming, well-constructed trapper cabins that we stayed in were water tight, sufficiently heated by a wood-burning stove, with firm mattresses, warm bedding, and very clean. Our favorite fully equipped cabin was the Betty Wendle with a large deck,... More

Our Becker's experience began with Tara, the customer service agent in Quesnel BC, who handles all of the bookings. Tara offered great suggestions about travel routes (avoid the logging roads) and also on the type and size of accommodation we could choose. As an experienced paddler, I knew exactly the type of canoe I wanted, I asked for it, and... More
