About Kamloops Island Campground
Overview
Kamloops Island is a small, shady campground at the mouth of the Kettle River. The main hub of campsites is tucked into the vegetation at the top and can fit tents and RVs. A cluster of walk-in tent sites is spread out in a grove of pines. Many campsites offer views of the river, lake, and surrounding landscape. There is a courtesy dock, but no boat launch.
Recreation

During the draw down when the water is low the geological beauty comes out in the ravine cut by the Kettle River. This campground is very popular for fishermen and familes alike.
Facilities
Kamloops Island is a reservation only campground with 17 sites. It can be reserved year round. However, the sites are not plowed in the winter time. There are picnic tables and fire pits at each site. You will need to bring your own drinking water.

Quite a few bald eagles have been spotted around Kamloops, and dozens of species of fish inhabit the lake, such as walleye, bass, rainbow trout, salmon and sturgeon.
