Launched by Basecamp Resorts, the Wildwood Investment Fund (soon to be rebranded as Everwild) is a real estate-backed opportunity fueled by the rapid rise of wellness tourism and spa-centered hospitality.
The fund includes three distinct Nordic spa development sites—Fernie, Harmony, and Banff—each chosen for its long-term tourism demand, real estate value, and alignment with the Everwild brand
- Fernie: A four-season mountain destination with a loyal tourism base and limited premium wellness offerings. High demand, low competition.
- Harmony: A master-planned lake community just west of Calgary, poised for rapid growth and experiential travel appeal. Built-in residential density and strong recreational demand.
- Banff: In early planning, this globally recognized tourism hub offers unmatched brand visibility and long-term potential. An anchor location for future brand equity and performance.
Together, these three locations form the foundation of Everwild’s expansion—bringing high-impact wellness real estate to Western Canada’s most iconic destinations.
While Everwild Canmore, opening in November 2025, is not part of the fund, it plays a vital role. As the flagship spa, it will drive brand awareness, operational proof of concept, and consumer trust—directly supporting demand and performance at the fund-backed locations.
A real estate model designed for growth
Wellness real estate is one of the fastest-growing categories globally, now valued at over $880 billion. Yet in Western Canada—home to booming tourism, affluent demographics, and limited competition—premium wellness destinations remain scarce.
Everwild is designed to fill that gap. Each site sits on secured land in a high-growth destination and is backed by Basecamp’s vertically integrated development model. Development, design, operations, and marketing are all handled in-house, reducing risk and ensuring full alignment across every phase of delivery.
The result is tighter execution, faster timelines, and a stronger guest experience—critical for building long-term brand equity and repeat visitation. Everwild’s consistent design and scalable model make it well-positioned for sustainable growth in Canada’s top-tier resort markets.
This isn’t just about opening doors—it’s about creating lasting value through real estate, experience, and operational excellence.
Why investors are paying attention
Everwild isn’t just a wellness concept—it’s a smart, scalable real estate investment in a sector with serious tailwinds.
As one of the first movers in the category, the Wildwood Investment Fund gives investors early access to a largely untapped market. Spa revenues are supported by diversified, premium-priced income streams—daily admissions, wellness treatments, food and beverage, retail, and recurring memberships. This multi-channel model supports stronger cash flow and long-term yield.
Basecamp’s vertically integrated structure means fewer middlepeople, tighter cost control, and a seamless end-to-end guest experience. That consistency not only strengthens the brand but also protects the bottom line.
The fund is also eligible for RRSP and TFSA contributions, providing Canadian investors with a tax-advantaged way to diversify into high-potential private real estate—something especially valuable in today’s shifting economic landscape. It’s a chance to invest in something tangible, high-performing, and deeply aligned with evolving consumer values.
Proven operator. Strategic locations. Fast-moving fund.
Wildwood is led by Sky McLean, CEO of Basecamp Resorts. Over the past decade, she has grown the brand from a single hotel to a thriving portfolio of 13+ properties, employing over 300 people and reaching total asset valuation exceeding $580 million.
This is a fund in motion—not a future idea. Land is secured. Design is well underway in Harmony. Ground preparation has already begun in Fernie. With Banff now in early planning stages—and both Fernie and Harmony actively in development—all three fund-backed locations are progressing with real momentum and institutional-grade potential.
Every step of the rollout is intentional, aligned with market demand, and executed by a seasoned team that understands how to deliver destination-driven real estate that performs.
Wellness that works — for guests and investors
Everwild redefines resort real estate through the lens of wellness. Guests move through immersive, elemental spa circuits—thermal pools, cascading waterfalls, wildcrafted steam rooms, and nature-integrated rest areas—all intentionally designed to restore, inspire, and reconnect.
But these features aren’t just experiential—they’re strategically designed to drive revenue. From high-margin spa treatments to culinary offerings and curated retail, each component contributes to a high-value business model built around elevated wellness.
Every spa is tailored to meet the rising demand for health-conscious, experience-driven travel. The result is strong pricing power, increased guest loyalty, and sustained financial performance.
For investors, this represents a rare alignment: fast-growing demand, limited supply, vertical integration, and real assets in high-growth markets. The Wildwood Investment Fund is nearly full—and the opportunity to get in early is closing fast.
