Echo Valley Guest Ranch Comments
"Through the eyes of our guests"

Our guest books are full of the thoughts of guests that have
visited with us from dozens of different countries!
The following are typical of the thoughts expressed,
in our guest books, by our guests:

This place is as close to PARADISE as it comes- majestic snow capped mountains, rocky cliffs, dappled meadows, gorgeous horses, bountiful bulls and an exotic blend of western and Thai architecture- strong but mellow. Thank you Norm & Nan for sharing your dream with us.
Reva Dexter, Vancouver, BC. CANADA. May 2004

Thank you for turning this stressed out "city slicker" into a relaxed and 'easy going' country bumpkin. Your amazing staff have helped me fulfill a dream of riding western with at least some class! Echo Valley is a little bit of "Heaven on Earth" and I want to thank everyone I met, guests and staff, for making this the most enjoyable holiday ever. Thank you

Our Honeymoon! Really a perfect spot for it-the place, the people, the massages, the hike, the naps all made it an incredibly unique experience for both of us, Thank you so very much. Yee-ha!! What a fun week!! The horses, some ropin', the hike up Mt Bowman was awesome, a truly memorable experience! The people are fantastic and I've never enjoyed myself more! We'll see you again soon!!
Anja Wrum & Joris deBoer. Vergenner, VT, USA. August 2004

We stopped here as a stop-over between Jasper and Whistler, but it has turned out to be the highlight of the vacation. It is so difficult to describe how wonderful this Oasis is. We are truly indebted to all the staff and the wonderful guests we have met who have contributed to making it a very, very memorable experience. We will be back!
Jenny & Howard Zetter, Herts, ENGLAND. August 2004

Thank you all so much for making our honeymoon a special time in our lives- it was truly memorable. The spa treatments were absolutely fabulous! Marvin was exited to catch a fish as well. The team here is amazing and really know how to treat people. Thanks again.

Beautiful scenery, beautiful facility….it was like coming home! Thank you to all the staff for making my stay so comfortable and welcoming. The horses, riding and Wranglers were amazing and being out on the trail…words cannot describe!

This is a great place for a retreat. Good meeting facilities and great meals. The activities are wonderful as well as riding on the meadows is just magical. Thank you to all the staff for your great services-and thank you to the Dove's for sharing your place with us.

Norm Dove and his wife, Thailand native Nan, have lovingly blended the adventurous spirit if the Old West and the peaceful wisdom of the East to create and eclectic "East meets-West" destination spa in Canada's famed Cariboo region.

This was the best honeymoon we could imagine. We felt like one big family - Thank you all for that! It was just perfect - the food, the scenery, the whole stay. We'll come back!
Sandra & Biance Lotsch, GERMANY

It's easy to understand their slogan: "East meets West." When you arrive, you immediately spot a peculiar structure resembling a Thai temple, this is all a part of the ultra-luxurious experience of Echo Valley Resort and Spa. This secluded dude ranch and spa, basking in the beauty of the Cariboo, offers a smorgasbord of activities from gold panning to white-water rafting to fly fishing and everything else in between.
