One remaining trailer lot, located in the charming small town of Granisle, located on beautiful Babine Lake, 40 miles east of Smithers, as the crow flies. Most of these lots are covered in lawn, with gravel driveways extending from a paved frontage road. They are fully serviced, including power, telephone, water, sewer and channel TV. The influx of retirees, along with government commitment to maintaining existing services and aggressively stimulating the community’s tourist potential, have given Granisle a complete facelift. Fishing is superior. Types include rainbow trout, char, kokanee, turbot, salmon and steelhead. Fly fishing is strong in the Babine River. Lot 49 backs onto a small park, which includes a playground. Again they are level, with lawn, and above road grade. Granisle offers a superb, quite large marina, with a sandy beach, hiking trails, school, hockey and curling rink, tennis courts, community hall, library, post office and police station.
