I didn't stay overnight but spent a great day with Jim and the family. It is the slow season the first of May but there was a senior church group staying so lots of activity going on. What a great little community. In just the short time there I met new friends and even picked one up for a ride... More

As we approached the Outpost, we were forced to park and walk a mile in due to the flooding waters. We had a wonderful stroll through the adjoining area and I thoroughly enjoyed exploring and seeing the area by foot. Our plans did not consisit of lodging, but we did get to enjoy a few of the amentities including the... More

The smell of the orange tree flowers, the Labrador dogs, the freshly squeezed orange juice, the howler monkeys and the paradisiac spot by the river... So many special memories, we wish we stayed longer. Jackeline and Jim were nice and helpful, i wish them to keep on living their dream in the jungle (truly inspirationnal). The only thing that should... More

If you are looking for an experience that will bring you back to the natural world, the Barton Creek Outpost is for you. I was able to go to the Outpost for a volunteer trip with my university and wouldn't trade in this experience for anything in the world. Jim and Jackie are terrific as are all of their children....

I have to start by saying that the owners were not in residence when we visited but we we ably taken care of by the well trained and considerate volunteers. But there was some confusion with prearranged taxis and prepaying that i think would have been avoided if the owners were present, not a big deal overall, just a bit... More

Barton creek is a beautiful location. The swimming and hiking was great as was the food. The three nights we spent there were a little more pricey then other places I stayed but worth it. The family was very accommodating and meals and clean bedding were provided promptly. If I were to go back I would definitely hitch or hump... More

We are very appreciative of the people who take the time to review our place. For over 7 years we have been trying to get better at what we do and customer feedback is the most important source of information we have. To clarify a point regarding this review, this customer did not have the Belizean or US cash to... More

We arrived at Barton's Creek with the expectation that we would be camping in the jungle and prepared adequately for it. Brought food, and our exhausted sense of morale after traveling from Honduras. We found Barton's Creek a welcome break from the overly-touristy stops we had made prior and absolutely loved our experience there with the friendly family atmosphere it... More

My family and I visited the BCO for 3 days over the Christmas holidays and had a great time at their beautiful jungle outpost. There were 6 people in our party and while we were there about 5-8 other travelers came and went. We took a shuttle to San Ignacio from the airport and then caught a ride from Rosa's... More

I lived in Belize for a half year as an exchange student, and I visit Bartons creek outpost 3 times. The place is a bit diffecult to get to because it's far from the nearest civilization. the place has laid back atmosphere. You can take a refreshing swim in the creek, read some books and not to forget do a... More
