Great camping sites, with flash toilet
Few minutes walk to the lake
Always guaranteed decent weather on Nicola Lake and the water is nice and warm. The sites are flat and well maintained, and most have trees for shade. The main beach is a bit of a hike from the overflow sites, so try and find a private one. Ice and candy for the kids can be purchased from the Office, otherwise it's a 20min drive to Merritt.
Great location, beautiful! The only downside for us was the wind which made it too cold to swim. And the waves it created made it dangerous for a 3 year old to swim...even a fair swimmer like myself. If you're not wanting to swim, it's perfect - especially if you're wanting to wind surf.
We were in sites 23 & 24. The ground for tents was gravel so staking them in was extremely diffict, we broke at least 5 stakes so bring extra because with the wind you will have to stake everything down.
Beautiful scenery, great facilities, and the store staff were very friendly. My youngest son wants to come back here again someday!
