About Charis Camp and Conference Centre
An owner-run place to stay, up in the Eastern Hillsides.
Anything filed under hotels in Chilliwack that is not a national brand tends to be something more particular than a room for the night, and the name of this business says so directly. Charis Camp and Conference Centre is listed here as accommodation, but a camp and conference operation is a different proposition from an inn: places of that kind normally work on group bookings, blocks of dates and organized events rather than individual stays arranged on the day. Nothing here establishes how it takes bookings, so that is the first thing to ask about.
The site sits in the Eastern Hillsides, on the V4Z 0C1 postal code, up on the north slopes of the Cascades in the southeast corner of the municipality. This is the fastest growing part of the city by a wide margin, up 163 per cent between 2011 and 2021, from roughly 1,300 people to roughly 3,450, and still climbing. It is also the ridge dividing the Chilliwack River valley from the farmland below, which means elevation, a winding approach and weather that does not always match what the valley floor is doing a few hundred metres down. The Chilliwack Community Forest and The Falls golf course are both up here, which gives a fair sense of the surroundings: subdivision on one side, trees and slope on the other.
Neither a phone number nor a website is published, which makes contact harder than it ought to be for somewhere that almost certainly runs on advance arrangement. Independent accommodation across this city follows a strongly seasonal rhythm set by Cultus Lake, the Vedder fishing runs, Mount Cheam and the campgrounds up the Chilliwack River valley. August fills early everywhere in the category, and an operation taking group bookings will be working to a calendar set further out again than that.
