Please don’t go that site, the couple of managers stay on the site and they were very aggressive and horrible scary, talk and behaved very mean. Poor area few RVs and every time go to wash room have to press cold with 5 numbers. I don’t want to give any start if I have choice. I paid didn’t stay left by threat and mean words for parked wrong spot. Report to police already. Be safe and good luck if you still going.

Aside from being more expensive compared to other campgrounds, there was no assistance or guidance on where exactly to pitch your tent. The place lacks proper organization, leaving you guessing where your site is. After you pay, they just leave you on your own once they’ve collected the money. We decided to cancel, but they refused to give a refund, not even a partial one. It’s also very noisy due to nearby construction sites, road traffic, and neighboring factories. The area is dusty, and the facilities are very basic. The staff were unfriendly, and they only accept cash with no receipt provided. Absolutely not recommended.

Keep Driving! This campsite basically a rough field with services. The sites are very close together and there are mostly long term residents here. Unless you are looking for a dusty unmaintained site with a view of all the neighbors stuff, keep going. It gets two stars because it did have services (the power kept tripping the breaker), and is close to Kamloops center.

Nice camground with clean facilities and good view. Although we got woken up by construction work next to the campground. It was very loud and annoying. Even though we slept in the car the noise was super loud.
