The sites are very tight, if you have a pull out or an awning you have to choose which one you would like to use (if your site has enough room). The washrooms were clean; staff was friendly, pay showers and laundry. No pull thrus, mostly grassy sites (a little sparse in spots). Some road noise during the day but quiet at night. Small playground for kids and a small heated pool. Very scenic location. Fresh baking if pre-ordered the night before $. We paid $30 per night. The campsite charged our credit card for two nights six weeks before we arrived. We had reserved for three nights. Seems a little steep and definitely an overly early charge. Probably will not stay there again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Pay shower was cold, probably the worst shower I ever had to pay money for.(actually has a note to warn of this) Very tight, even with lots of reversing experience. Couldn't put out awning, had to place our lawn chairs around neighbors sewer connection - no room. No Camp Fires. Grass not kept up - dried up and tracks everywhere. Wasps were a big problem and the picnic tables sucked. The pool was great for the kids. We meant to stop in merely to re-charge and get cleaned up - but were very disappointed considering the price we were charged. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very tight fit and entertaining to watch others try to get set up. Friendly people who helped us with directions, etc. Quite a ways from town (3 miles) and no good way to get there except by car. Would prefer to stay in town near stores, etc. this little town is very fun, with a tubing area on the canal. Good restaurants and wonderful city park on the lake. Beautiful setting. Kids would like this area/town. Lots to do. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campground appeared to be clean and well kept, but we had a very unfortunate experience with the owner. We had arrived late in the evening and only needed a place to spend the night. The owner appeared to be impatient from the beginning since we had interrupted something he was doing, but he escorted us to our site, where, due to a misunderstanding, we backed the trailer dead center in the tight spot rather than to one side where he wanted it. At this he began to lose his temper and become verbally abusive. This escalated to actual threats with a waved stick when we accidentally ran one of the tow vehicle tires a couple of inches over the edge of the grass as we pulled out to correct it. He started shouting that we were now "damaging property" (the grass), and ranting about how expensive it was to irrigate and maintain. We were so shocked by this irrational outburst that we decided we needed to ask for a refund and leave. He followed us all the way to the office verbally threatening to "rip us out of our friggin' car" if we did not honor the camp speed limit. We were very upset and shaken by this encounter, but since we had not done any permanent damage nor verbally provoked this behavior, we felt that there had to be other issues involved for someone in a service industry to behave like this toward a customer. My husband is very skilled at backing a trailer; we have stayed in many RV parks, but we have never had any experience like this. We hope we never do again! Unfortunately, we cannot recommend this campground. We did not stay at this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

As with other visitor comments: this park was well kept, clean and appeared professionally operated. However, the overall attitude and lack of customer service skills by one employee overshadowed much of the good points of this park. They allowed dogs during the highest traffic times of the year: July and August. On September 1st: they changed to "NO DOGS" period. There seems to be very little latitude (if any) by this park to accommodate late arrivals. Staff is not as customer friendly or as willing to go "above and beyond" to help their customers or be of service to them. The layout of the campground is satisfactory however RV sites next to the 4-lane road enjoy considerable evening and night traffic noise. In summary, I would not return to this park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Yikes! Scary dirty! Dirty campsites and washrooms had no toilet paper or paper towels. Crowded and very outdated, worn out 70's style with old rickety, travel trailers that look like they live here permanently. Then there are the little duct-taped lattice fences and pots of plastic dirty flowers. The one positive thing is its located very close to all shopping, mall and restaurants. Oh another: the weather is always terrific in sunny Penticton. Lots of campgrounds to choose from but reserve early in the start of the year to get a spot. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Apparently this RV Park is being run by a property management firm for the bank. Its previous owners went bankrupt. The water slides were torn down and all that remains is a mountain of dirt and weeds. There are better campgrounds than this one; Please take the time to look for a better one. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

What was a nice RV park, has now gone to seed. Former manager quit and the water slide has been torn down. Due to lack of RV sites in the Penticton area, park is crowded with full timers. Phone calls checking for availability are ignored and sites very small. Rate increases in July and August are over the top. Stay elsewhere if possible. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campsite really takes me by surprise. I was ready to turn around and leave coming from Alberta with big open space campgrounds. The big entertainment was when I enter the site and entertain the other campers with my backing up skills as a rookie campier. Wife say's left trailer goes right. The site was pack with kids, every five minutes you can hear one crying. Quiet at night and gates are locked at 11pm. My kids love it and the staff was courteous and friendly. Management was great, friendly, putting on activities for the kids, water spray fight. Great water slide next to the park but I was told it will be demolished for a future condo project. I will go back if the waterslide is still operational. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
