We spent a month at Vedder River in Sepetember, enjoying the mountain views to one side and the salmon running in the river on the other. Sites are generally level, not too wide, but generous in length. We had full service and there were no issues at all. Campground facilities are well maintained - very clean and always stocked. Maintenance people are constantly working around the site making sure the grass is cut and sites are clean. Staff is super friendly. Can't wait to go back!

• My site was level. • I did not use the showers, they are push button and you can’t control the temp. • It is a nice campground, sites are a bit on the smaller side, but not too crowded. • Nice mix of sun and shade. • Close to the river, it’s very peaceful. • I would stay again.

The only good thing about this campground is the location — the river was just a short walk from our site, and Cultus Lake is only a 15-minute drive away. We stayed at one of the large non-serviced sites, which offered no shade or privacy. While portable toilets were placed nearby, the flush toilet and shower facility was clearly insufficient for the number of campers staying here. Overall, it felt more like camping in a parking lot than in nature. I didn’t feel safe — our tents were completely exposed and it seemed like a vehicle could easily run over us in the dark. At one point, a group across from us left at 12:40 a.m., and their headlights shone directly into our tent, which was honestly quite scary.

Its fine if you like parking lots, I guess. Front staff were good and mostly accommodating. I had issues with a neighbouring site within a couple hours of arrival and they were willing to move my site, but after taking a walk around I decided to leave with no refund, and head down the road to the nearby BC Rec site instead for $17 which was incredible. Other than hookups and bathrooms, it's literally a parking lot for $60/night. Good access to the Rotary Trail system. Everything is an additional cost.

We had a wonderful time camping here with our kids! It’s a fantastic spot for families – plenty of open space for children to run around and have fun. The swings were a big hit with the little ones, and the area felt very safe and clean. One of the highlights was the barbeque setup – we enjoyed grilling in the evening and sitting around together. The washrooms were surprisingly clean and well-maintained, which made the stay even more comfortable. Overall, this place is perfect for a family getaway. Peaceful, kid-friendly, and well-equipped with everything you need for a relaxing camping trip. Highly recommended!

This is a lovely campground if you can get a grassy site. If not, I wouldn’t bother. We had booked sites “next to each other”- but when the campsite opened back up after covid rules changed, we no longer had adjoining sites for our group- without notice or anything effort to try and fix the situation. Poor communication, in my opinion. The sites are incredibly close to each other, and clearly don’t take into account that many trailers have pop outs. My family uses a tent trailer, but much of our space was used up by the trailers on either side of us. Outlets were impossibly far away, and tap was so close to the ground it was mostly unusable. The site we were given also had the large tree chopped down and none was put it it’s place, so there was ZERO shade. Another mentionable note- we were given a spot beside someone who was obviously camped there long term, and chain smoked the entire time. Would appreciate if there were a designated smoking area if that’s the case- the constant stream into my tent trailer 3 feet away where my kids sleep isn’t ideal or safe.

Lower Your Expectations! Just not worth the money! Be prepared that not everything you think you are getting you will get. I was not happy with the experience from the start. When I pulled with a 42.4 foot fifth wheel there were about 5 VERY large pot holes at the the entrance, trust me, I felt them! and when I told the person at the front desk she said it is on the other side of the properly line which they don't own so not their responsibility. Their own roads going to the sites are no better! I hope you have great eye site because you won't be able to read the site numbers on the B sites pulling in. I came in October so it was not busy. I got probably the worst site. It wasn't raining at the time but when it there was mud everywhere and little water lakes everywhere. They said they have Internet but when I hooked it up it didn't work. I called the after hours number b/c the office was closed and he said I needed to read the sign at the front desk that said "Internet is Intermittent" when I asked the front desk and when I called they said they had Internet. They did not tell me it didn't work. They seem to have an answer for everything. And the best is that if you have pets be prepared to pay $5 per pet per day. I have 2 dogs so that is a 25% increase is the daily rate. When I asked why? They said the city charges for it so they have to. I asked how does the city knows and what do my dogs get for that charge? no answer! lol If I knew this is what I would be getting then I wouldn't really have an issue, however, their website paints a different picture. It is close to downtown and Cultas Lake. That was a good point.

Excellent Family camping!! The campers were friendly and nice. We did find some of the sites a bit small, but everything was very clean. Everyone is off doing activities in the day so the whole place is nice abd quiet and peaceful .. Washrooms are super clean, plenty of hot water for showers and no line ups. Thanks so much to the girls at the gate and the camp host who were so nice and helpful to us. I am so glad we found this gem and will definitely be returning.
