Rating: 9 8 9 9 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Our name was on the reservations board at the camp host site, so we went to our site. Didn't get registered until the next day because staff came around too late. Our site (#33) was a level gravel back-in with plenty of foliage surrounding it for excellent privacy. It also helped that it was on the loop where there was no one on one side of us. Campground sites are on terraced loops which gives excellent views of the lake and surrounding landscape. There are a few sites with electric, but they have no privacy. Water is available from water spigots around the loops. No dump station in the park, so I used the Superstore dump in Vernon. The vault toilets have been converted to flush mode. I managed to get only one OTA TV education channel. I didn't check to see if there was any WiFi. Several trails around the park including one using the abandoned railway tracks. The rail trail isn't complete yet; some ongoing construction on some sections. Fairly quiet in the campground, even with all the boats out on the lake. There was an annoying helicopter demonstrating on the ridge above the park, but that was for only a couple of hours. The marmots seem to be making a comeback as there were plenty of these critters running around. We go here mostly to chill and relax and its a perfect place for it. That's why we will continue to come back here. - Onemoretrail
Our site was exposed and a bit wet because of it's location. Sites on the upper loops generally had more shade and were drier. There is a huge marmot population at this park. The boat ramp, docks and water access make this park a great choice for boaters, kayakers, paddle boarders and fishermen. There is a very accessible, good surface walking trail along the shoreline that attracts bicyclists. There are wineries in the area. - Travel_IMHO
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Kekuli Bay Provincial Park »Being a Friday and all the sites on a first come first serve basis, I came early and picked out a site at the 10am earliest registration time. Originally I was looking for a double site for family and us, but those sites were occupied. As it turned out, the individual sites were a lot bigger. Our site (#38) had plenty of room for a big rig. With lots of foliage it was also very private. Another advantage to this site is the Shower Trail is nearby. Our son had #39 next door and it was more wide open with not much in the way of privacy, but it had a great panoramic view of Kalamalka Lake. All the sites are back-in gravel with the exception of the 4 electric sites which are paved and near the parking lots. The campground was full by noon and one of the parking lots is used for the overflow and that was almost full as well. Park attendants were very friendly and helpful. One issue that they couldn't fix (they said) was all the wood bugs crawling around the men's shower stall floor. Probably not for the squeamish. The Nature Trail has been extended with a gravel section that goes to the highway. When the weather is nice, this is a busy place with lots of people using the day use facilities, especially the boat basin. Still one of our favourite campgrounds and we will continue to stay here. - Onemoretrail

Rating: 5 5 5 8 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: If you like the sound/horn of freight trains, this RV park is for you. If you like nightly road construction at the park entrance, this RV park is for you. If you like hearing two helicopters overhead at 4:45 a.m., this RV park is for you. If you enjoy the smell of a porta potty in the washroom, this RV park is for you. The roads were a muddy mess following the rain. It was difficult and dangerous to make a left or right turn out of the park because of the massive construction. Lots of long term residents. Near lots of shopping, restaurants, and gas stations. - Robert the RV Warrior
The staff is friendly and helpful. The willow trees are really low hanging and may scratch the top of your rig. Some of the back in driving is tricky with all the trunks and branches, however they are valuable for shade. The drives are tricky and if you are long and driving to your site, prepare to turn at the first turn going back/north or you will have to unhook. Used the laundry which worked well but many dryers and a washer broken, everything dirty and dusty. The lake is not usable but it is beautiful to watch the ducks and see the wildlife. - saturn7

Rating: 9 9 9 8 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: As other reviews have stated, this is a nice park. The sites are well layer out, all concrete with excellent utility hook ups for 30 and 50 amp. I would have given this park 10 out of ten but for the wifi. Had trouble getting connected per the instructions from check in. Called the tech support number and after a while got connected but the signal at this site (170) is very poor. The advice from tech support was to sit outside or next to a south facing window and even then the speed is marginal. It's nearly 40 deg C outside so not to keen on that. Relocating or adding another antenna for this end of the park would be a great feature. - ddrichter
This is a full-time park with a few sites for traveling people. Very nice manager, warm clean pool and pristine condition of the park!! Close to shopping and restaurants! We were lucky enough to get a site on the end next to the lake, just a beautiful area, would definitely stay here again!! - 2VetsRVing
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Swan Lake RV Resort »This is the second time we've stayed at this park and we will do so again. It reminds us somewhat of the 'snowbird' parks in Arizona. The pool is nice and warm and the hot tub/spa is quite relaxing. It is close enough to Vernon to have everything you could want (including a Wal-mart). The only down side is the traffic noise which is not bad enough to keep us awake at night but can be heard. Also there is a railway just behind the park but we heard a train only once, so it's not much of an issue. It is a Passport America park but only for one night. We stayed two nights so we had to pay full cost for the second night ($44.00 CDN). - cachencouple

This is our second stay at this park. New owners took over last year. Improvements are a constant here. They have leveled and landscaped a number of sites and are working on more. Fresh gravel at our site. The chickens and roosters are gone. A new washroom facility is almost ready to open. They still need to work on power sources at some sites. The owners are very friendly and attentive. We hope to be back again next year. - Rollin Ollens
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Swan Lake Campground & RV Park »We stayed for 3 nights in a full service site. We were only a short 50 yards from the lake. Since we were almost the furthest away from the office, the WiFi was non-existent, but the owner was up front with that information. This was his and his family's first season as owners and we can't say enough about his friendly, helpful attitude. He takes the time to help each new camper get settled into their site. We know that in time things like the WiFi will get better. On a side note, we had reserved and paid for 4 nights but left one day early. He kindly offered to refund the last night if he was able to rent the site and rent it he did and the refund was made. Now that is Great Customer Service. We will be back. - Gary & Rachelle

Rating: 3 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: For staying 2 nights @ $55/night we were given "the best site" overlooking the water. It was very small and difficult to enter with others parked so closely. The electric was not even 30 amps and we were not allowed to run AC at 95 degrees. We were gladly given a complete refund and we went on our way to a Provincial Park. - LeslieF

Rating: 8 9 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: The access road is quite steep and windy. This park has a group campsite and three individual campsite loops. The sites in the first loop are closer and not as private as the other two loops. However, there were two long pull-through sites in that loop that would accommodate any size rig. We had a site in loop 3 and it was a good size with many trees for shade and privacy. Unfortunately, the trees were cottonwoods and the sticky seeds meant picking up debris and gravel and making a mess wherever we stepped. Our site was level, had a picnic table and fire ring. The old pit toilets in our loop have been converted to flush with a sink. No dump station in the park. Closest would be the one at Bear Creek park to the south. Picked up two OTA TV channels in HD. No Wi-Fi, but had 4 bars on the Rogers network. There are two beaches for swimming, a pet beach for dogs, a boat ramp, and a few trails around the former Fintry Estate. We were fortunate to get a tour of the Manor House, which is where the Scottish Liard, James Dun-Waters lived. A trail up 371 steps takes you to Shorts Creek Falls which was in full flood during our stay. The former estate also has other buildings such as an octagonal dairy barn and a former packing house for fruit. Very interesting place and an enjoyable stay. We would most definitely come back again. - Onemoretrail
Nightly stay $32 Cdn. (did not book on-line). We've stayed at Fintry a number of times and always enjoyed it. This is the first time that we camped in the new loops though. The second loop (51-75) is partly shaded on the perimeter sites and fully exposed in the interior. If it's a typical Okanagan summer day, you'll want shade. The third loop (76-100) is almost all in the open. I recommend the first loop (1-50). It is more established and better lake access with 1-13A right on the waters edge. Also, in the first loop, is the only playground for the kids. Fintry is a delta so it's completely flat, great for bicycling. If you're energetic, climb the 300+ stairs to the falls. Well worth the effort. The boat launch was closed due to high water but we were allowed to launch our kayaks from the shore. My only gripe is the $12 extra for having an extra vehicle. If you don't want to pay, you'll have to park outside the Park's gate. Also, the extra fee charged per day to book on-line, puts the cost close to full-service campground prices. - HowieS82
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Fintry Provincial Park »This is a very nice provincial park that is very busy during the summer season. It has sites that are in the shade and sites in the sun. Several sites are right on the lake which is good if you have a boat. There is a modern boat ramp and dock. There are a few pull-through sites that should accommodate the largest of RVs. The road down from Westside road is a bit steep and windy but if you take it slow you should have no problems. Westside road itself is also a bit windy, but again take it slow and it's not a problem. We will be back. - cachencouple

Rating: 5 10 9 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Things have changed since we stayed here a few years ago. The sites are still rough and either grass or gravel, and there are still no sewer hook ups, but they now have Shaw Go WiFi available. The rifle range located across the creek seems to be having more usage, which was very upsetting for our dog, and a house on the other side of the creek has two large dogs that sound like they are attacking something every time someone passes by their house (at all hours of the day or night). The hosts are very accommodating and helpful, but because of the noise we would avoid going back. It might be OK for a one night stop over. - Snoet
Quiet, spotless, great location and town, awesome value, and the two managers were friendly, helpful, professional, always around, and obviously took pride in the campground. Quality people in every way! We were planning to stay four days and ended up enjoying ten fantastic days! My recommendation is a definite YES! - Doug Geiger
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Lumby Lions Campground »We reserved here, expecting water/30 amp hookup, to discover that the park had been overbooked, and we could get 15 amp connection at a distance, and water shared with the next site (because the person who took our reservation didn't communicate with the hosts, and a family reunion had been booked for all sites a year ahead). We chose to fill our fresh water tank and had sufficient for our stay, and our nightly rate was reduced from $29. The hosts were great, the campground was tidy, washrooms clean. It's a little rustic and lacks the convenience of wi-fi, but overall it was a nice place to stay. - Peg.Garry

Rating: 3 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Tim's By the River Campsite »We needed a place to stop as we were one day early for our reserved site in Vernon. We saw the sign for Tim's but could not see the park so we headed on it. Access from highway 97 is good. We were met at the entrance by the owner and were told to pick a spot and he would be by later on to collect payment etc. Check in was quick and pleasant. FYI we did notice a sign that said the park was "rustic". Interior roads were packed gravel. No ruts or pot holes to worry about. Foliage could have been cut back in some spots but there were no over hanging branches or serious obstructions. We expected to see a number of sites that were "by the river" but saw only one but it was taken. No surprise. There were a number of site options. There were pull throughs that could accommodate 45 footers but they were quite narrow. There were some odd shaped back ins. Some deep and some shallow. All spaces had good privacy. Most appeared fairly level. We chose 13. It was a wide, grassy, long enough for our coach and tow, back in spot. There were no close neighbors. That's pretty much the end of the "I'm okay with the rustic part". This park has potential but the operator either doesn't have the drive or the money to invest in making this a very very nice stop over. The Salmon River does run along side. The sites that exist beside the river need to be opened up and it looks like there might be ten or so. Brush needs to be cut back and a lot of garbage and scrap metal that has just been tossed into the bush needs to be removed. Add even just Power, Water and a Dump Station would make this a viable attraction. Right now the place is a dump. The owner's large cur dog wanders freely, there is a fire ban in place but we noted two camp fires burning. There is ONE outhouse and a make shift solar shower that is just ugly and dirty. No one bothers with rules. We paid $20.00 (cash only) and will never be back. - Rollin Ollens

Site was long and level. Park is very well kept. - Gannonrv
Repeat stay for us: best feature is the city bus stop right outside park entrance! Easy and cheap access to Kelowna area without moving (and parking!) motorhome in crazy summer traffic. Little beachfront is sheltered by boat docks and family-friendly, but better is the beachfront regional park 400m down the road. Local amenities and accessibility, along with reliable full service sites compensate for shoe-horn spaced sites. - Segris
