Learn more about this land:
Fluffy Bunny Farms is a private 6-acre property located only 15 minutes from downtown Kelowna! It’s the perfect place to camp near Bear Creek Provincial Park and Myra-Bellevue Provincial Park.
We have 3 private campsites with stunning mountain views perfect for a small trailer, or self-contained camper van/tent.
Guests can enjoy biking, fishing, hiking and wildlife watching all nearby. We also have a white sand volleyball court to relax and enjoy some friendly competition with your camping partner at the end of your day.
Please note that there are no amenities available at the campsite. Campers will need to have a self-contained vehicle and leave no trace. We are dog friendly and request that dogs remain under their owner's control at all times and on leash.
We do not allow campfires as our home burned down last year in the McDougal Creek fire as well as a lot of the neighbourhood so we don’t allow any fires or smoking cigarettes on the property.
We will be building our new home during the summer but the build is a bit away from where the sites are so it shouldn’t be an issue. But this is forwarded as we know that this is a priority for us as so we won’t stop building even if we have campers, so we just want everyone to know this in advance!
We can’t wait to host you and if you have any questions before booking, just ask!

We had an amazing stay over the New Year and absolutely loved this place. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, thoughtful, and attentive, and the tour of the guesthouse and property was a great touch.
The property is stunning and the guesthouse was larger than expected, which was a lovely surprise. The wood fireplace created the coziest vibe, but the real highlight was the wood-fired hot tub — tucked into the forest beside the rushing river, surrounded by fairy lights and total quiet. Cold dipping in the river and then warming back up in the tub was pure magic!
Meeting the horses and dogs was also a bonus, and the location is the perfect balance of feeling remote while still being close to town. We’d happily return and highly recommend this place to anyone!

They were very welcoming and made us feel right at home quickly. The guesthouse was very clean and had everything we needed for our weeklong visit.
The atmosphere is so relaxed and the hot tub was a perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring.
Highly recommend staying with Peter and Renske!

We loved staying on Denise and Korys property and getting to stay in Periwinkle was absolutely fantastic. They are incredible hosts and the property is large with plenty of tree coverage for those hot days and a beautiful beach right at your toes. We had our dog Rundle out who couldn’t have been happier to sleep in the shade and swim every day. Lots to do and see in the area that’s worth checking out! We’ll be back!

The hosts are incredibly welcoming and responsive to any requests or concerns. Periwinkle is very cute and the lake is fabulously clear and warm. Do remember that this is a 50+ year old vintage trailer so do go with the appropriate expectations as to little quirks and foibles. It was an overall charming and pleasant experience.

Perfect RV spot and great hosts! We travel with 2 dogs and they were welcomed on the property. Suzanne and her husband were a great help when we needed directions to the ER for a broken arm and checked in everyday to see how I was doing. The walk through the property to the river was beautiful. We'd definately go back.

Weekend Trip to Shuswap Lake Side Vintage Airstream
We enjoyed our stay in thier Periwinkle Trailer, the interior of the trailer is lovely and all set up for essentials. We LOVED the shuswap lake beach access only steps away from the trailer. The host's home is on the property as well but the 'private' grass/beach feel like you're on your own. We enjoyed the outdoor lawn games also.
The hosts uses a tractor to carry your items for you down to the trailer :) The hosts are very friendly and hospitable. She even surprised us with a small gift as she knew it was a special occasion for us. We can't wait to come back! Thank you!

This place was such a relaxing and easy place to spend a few days. We waded in the river every day. Suzanne and Randy were lovely. We would go back!
There are 2 sites. The 2nd site is a little larger. Both have 30 Amp power and water that are on the passenger side and a little forward of a usual placement, but they provided a 30Amp extension and an extra hose, so that all worked fine. Each site also has a sewer connection in the normal campsite spot. They don't have trash cans available; you have to pack out your trash. But they will give you a container for recycling if you ask.
They have 3 dogs who are well-behaved and would come to check on us. There are also alpacas and horses.

2 nights at Shuswap Lake Side Vintage Airstream
We absolutely loved our stay! Denise and Cory were incredible hosts—so welcoming and thoughtful. The vintage Airstream is beyond adorable, decked out with cozy touches and all the amenities you could need. From the comfy bed, mini fridge, BBQ, and stove top cooking! It was glamping perfection!
The site includes access to a private beach and BBQ area, and for just a few extra bucks, they’ll even set up an unforgettable outdoor movie night! Think 70s-style projector in a quaint little shed right beside the trailer, complete with movie-theatre popcorn. It was such a vibe!
There’s power, running water, and you’re minutes from a gorgeous waterfall hike. We brought our little Chihuahua, and he loved it too! The Shuswap community has such a welcoming, tight-knit feel—we felt right at home.
It’s the ideal lake getaway without all the hassle of traditional camping. They truly thought of everything so you don’t have to. Great price, beautiful spot, and hosts who go above and beyond. We’ll definitely be back!

We LOVED this place. We camp all over BC and Alberta from April-Oct. We are very seasoned campers. This is by far one of the best places we’ve ever stayed.
Quiet. Beautiful. Peaceful. Green. Grassy. Friendly hosts. Full hookups. Free firewood. ANIMALS! The dogs were such a great bonus. Logan and Jersey got along so well with our dogs. Their visits were the highlight for me. They even led us to the river on our daily walks.
Our only issue was the pesky mosquitos. But we will be back again when the river isn’t so high so we can hang out at the river and enjoy outside without bites.
Centrally located to tons of markets, eateries, shops and wineries!

Our first Hipcamp experience and it won't be our last. What a treat to be away from the mass camping of the Okanagan and to simply enjoy the quiet and solitude. Hosts, Sue and Randy, were wonderful and so accommodating. Randy supplied us with fresh pheasant eggs. Yum. The dogs were super friendly, the baby alpacas were adorable. The river was quite high so we couldn't enjoy the full experience of river and beach however we will definitely come back later in the year. Thank you Sue for the kayaking tips. I'll be in touch for future trips!
