Beaverdell, BC · 5 sites · Tents, RVs
A natural, convenient location with on the West Kettle River! We have 300 acres w/ 1500 meters of river frontage & access to the surrounding crown land and KVR trail which runs through the property. NO REFUNDS within 48 hrs of reservations -thanks you. Recommend arriving before dark so you don't complain in a review how hard sites are to find at night ;-) If you are looking for fully serviced campsites where the outhouse is closer than 250m, then please carry on! The KVR trail is the access to the property from the northend. From HWY 33 South, take the turn (West) onto Tuzo Main Road (about 7km's south of Beaverdell), then cross the wooden bridge over the Kettle River and take the first left onto the KVR trail (a long, straight flat gravel road) and follow for 1900meters. Mostly wide enough for one way traffic only, so please be patient and mindful of trail users on bikes, quads and vehicles. Access on the KVR trail from the south can be variable, check ahead. After driving down the KVR right of way about 1.2km, you will arrive at the farmhouse gates - there you will see a little sign for the campground on the tree, so keep going down the right away. Once you go another 600m or so, you will come to a homemade sign with an arrow pointing you left. Turn there and then make a quick right turn then follow the road. You will come to the large tree with a picnic table and two blue barrels marking site #10. Sites 1, 2, 3 ,4 are over at the river, the other RV sites 5, 6, 7, 8, can be any where around site 10 or in the loop. I can always bring the lawn mower over to cut the grass and weeds, just get a hold of me. We currently have 5 RV/Tent sites currently about 100m from the river. There are currently picnic tables with blue umbrellas for sites 1, 3, 4, 10. There is a small white table and chairs for site 2. RV's sites include sites #4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 - I can add many more RV sites. Just need to cut the grass/weeds. Fishing, hiking, exploring, bring your quads, dirt bikes. There's plenty of roads and trails ... Even a secret honey hole fishing spot not far away but that's hush hush only locals know about this gem. A camper told me recently he saw a massive fish (16+ inches), likely a rainbow in the Kettle.
