Featured Collection

Cottonwood House is one of the last remaining roadhouses in British Columbia. It was built in the 1860s to offer accommodation, meals and provisions to miners and travellers on their journey along the Cariboo ‘Waggon’ Road to Barkerville or Quesnel.

Today, this wheelchair accessible provincial historic site will allow you to experience first-hand over 75 years of the Boyd family history and the many features this unique heritage site has to offer.
