- [Self check-in at Nimpo Lake: what to expect](https://nimpolakeresort.com/introvert-wilderness-escape/): Nimpo Lake Resort doesn't have a front desk, a reception area, or staff waiting at the property when you arrive. You get a door code the day before check-in, and from that point on you're on your own — in the good sense. The cabin is yours, the lake is there, and nobody is going to knock to see how you're doing.
- [Stopping at Nimpo Lake on Highway 20: Williams Lake to Bella Coola](https://nimpolakeresort.com/the-ultimate-highway-20-stopover-planning-your-williams-lake-to-bella-coola-journey/): Highway 20 runs 456 kilometres from Williams Lake on the Fraser River across the Chilcotin Plateau to Bella Coola on the coast. It's one of the longer and more scenic drives in BC, and Nimpo Lake sits close to the midpoint — 295 kilometres west of Williams Lake and 155 kilometres east of Bella Coola. The drive from either end takes roughly three hours under normal conditions.
- [WiFi at Nimpo Lake Resort: what to expect](https://nimpolakeresort.com/remote-work-nimpo-lake-fiber-wifi/): Most places to stay in the West Chilcotin run on satellite internet — which works fine until it doesn't. Nimpo Lake Resort has fiber-optic internet, which is unusual this far off the grid. All seven cabins on the property have reliable WiFi, and the connection reaches the dock as well.
