Sunset Knoll Sites on Big Bar Lake

5 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents10 acres · Thompson Nicola E, BC

10 acres of untouched beauty! Extremely private with 100’s of acres of crown land on one side & a neighbour with 10 acres on the other. The lake is Caribbean blueish green & clear as glass. There are miles of trails to hike, 4x4, wild forage, or hunt in season. There are a couple other lakes nearby as well as the Fraser River & the Big Bar Ferry. Highly recommend!! One of our favourites is the Jesmond Fire Lookout. It requires a 4x4 vehicle or physical ability to complete a couple hour hike! We are a bit biased but our place is a very special one of a kind spot!

Wildflower Meadows

1 site · RV, Tent1 acre · Mile 108 Recreational Ranch, BC

One acre, unique gothic arch house with various small out-buildings, lots of grass, aspen stands, wild roses, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, backs onto greenbelt where horses graze, deer roam, four friendly cats reside, two small dogs dwell, five hens and a rooster do their chickeny things... It feels like being out in the country yet is only 4 minutes to small grocery/liquor store. Bring some firewood and/or pallets and use the bonfire pit (as long as there is no local fire ban in effect). Unfortunately, we do not yet have an outhouse so we can only accommodate campers who have their own toilet facilities onboard. The nearest public toilets are a four-minute drive away and are open till 9:00, and there are 24-hour bathrooms about ten minutes away. We are a quiet, friendly family who will respect your privacy, but we welcome any questions you may have and we are happy to greet you!

The best camping near Cariboo Nature Provincial Park guide

Overview

About

North of Lac La Hache and 100 Mile House in the Cariboo Basin is the small, undeveloped Caribou Nature Provincial Park. Although there is no overnight camping, the park is prime for day use, encapsulating Wood Frog Lake and a section of the San Jose River with 15 kilometres of trails. It’s a great riparian area and nesting grounds for waterfowl—keep an eye out for nest boxes for bufflehead, Canada geese, and goldeneye throughout the park. The surrounding forest comprises Douglas firs, spruce, and pine, many of which host black bears, coyotes, fox, muskrat, pine martens, snowshoe hares, and squirrels. This area was and is part of the traditional Shuswap First Nations.

When to go

The best time to visit is in late spring when waterfowl have nestlings and you can see the families out on the lake or grazing on the grassy shore.

Know before you go

No overnight stays are permitted in the park.
Cariboo Nature Provincial Park is undeveloped and requires that trash be carried out.
Pets are allowed but must be kept leashed.
