Campervan Sites Near Osoyoos, British Columbia: Best Osoyoos Campervan Sites 2025

Just a few kilometres north of the U.S. border, this small community is surrounded by water and stretched out on a pair of peninsulas jutting into its namesake lake. Warm and calm, swim from sandy beaches or paddle from downtown docks and boat launches. But you’ll want to explore nearby, too. Surrounded by desert and situated at the southernmost end of the Okanagan Valley, this place is famous for its wineries, which climb the surrounding ridges and offer reds more typical of hot, dry climates (like Spain or Italy). Bike between tasting rooms, or take a spin on the relatively flat, 18.4-kilometre International Hike and Bike Trail.

Welcome to a natural, convenient location with basic amenities on the West Kettle River! We have 300 acres including 1500 meters of river frontage with access to the surrounding crown land and KVR trail which runs through the property. We recommend arriving before dark so that you aren't complaining in a review how hard sites are to find at night, in the dark. Some sites may be overgrown generally a lawn mower is provided for your use. If you are looking for fully serviced campsites where the outhouse is closer than 250m, then you should just carry on! The KVR trail is the access to the property. 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. 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 lawner mower over to cut the grass and weeds down just get a hold of me. We currently have 5 tent only sites on the river and 25 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.

We took our RV up to Big Sky to try out this spot for 2 nights. It was great! Private and beautiful views. The first day there all of the spots were full (there are only 6 spots) but we had the campground to ourselves the entire next day. We swam, hiked around and relaxed in the sunshine. Our pups had the best day playing in the river and discovering frogs. Definitely recommend!

Decent place to over night. Very bumpy heading to the sight. Had 2 port-a-potty’s on sight that we clean but lots of spiders. The host might want to number the sights as when some other hipsters arrived they ask us what sight was where. We told them to count the picnic tables. Another pro each sight had picnic tables.

Such a peaceful spot with gorgeous lake views, sunsets were amazing! At night it’s dark enough for stargazing, and we fell asleep to crickets (and even spotted an owl). The site is private, right by the riding ring and close to the donkeys. Deborah is a wonderful host and even shared veggies and pears from her garden. Great RV setup with power, water and a picnic table and so close to wineries, bistros, beaches, and Penticton. We’ll be back!

Under new management. All amenities will be the same, just different picnic tables. New pics coming soon!

Daniel is the kindest uber friendly human being. He made us feel right at home, and made sure we had a great stay. It was the highlight of your trip! The peaches he gave us were the most delicious; meaty, sweet and juicy, and we are still enjoying his cucumbers after a few days, remembering the warm hospitality of the Similkameen valley. The views over the valley were wonderful from our campsite. It was also great to have access to the bathroom for a quick shower in the morning. Thank you Daniel and family! We loved our stay at Fruit Haven farm, and hope to see you again :)

The best campervan sites near Osoyoos guide

Where to go

swiws (Haynes Point) Provincial Park

Pronounced “s-wee-yous” and set on a narrow spit of land just south of downtown, this was, for many generations, where local Indigenous people passed across Osoyoos Lake, either astride a horse or on foot. Swim in the shallow waters, today you can fish for some 40 species of fish, or take a walk on a gravel path and boardwalks to a viewing platform in the middle of the marshland to spot wildlife and many types of birds.

Vaseux Lake Provincial Park

The spot where the Okanagan River widens into a narrow lake, set below bluffs often inhabited by mountain goats, Vaseaux is the perfect place for fishing, paddling, and birding. Drop a line in the calm waters for rainbow trout and large-mouth bass, or head to the placid, blue lake for excellent canoeing and kayaking. Those looking to see as many bird species as possible should take a walk to the nearby migratory bird sanctuary.

Okanagan Lake Provincial Park

Set on the shores of the narrow, 135-kilometre lake, this park has sandy beaches for swimming, and plenty of opportunities to get out on the water, whether windsurfing or waterskiing. Walk the one-kilometre interpretive trail through ponderosa pine and sagebrush. And if you need even more? Get in a boat and head directly across the lake to Okanagan Mountain Provincial Park, which offers 10,000 hectares of forest, grasslands, and lakes accessible only by trail.

When to go

One of the warmest towns in Canada, Osoyoos has a longer camping season than most. Daytime highs are already into the upper teens in April, and summers are dry, sunny, and hot. Perhaps the most pleasant time to visit is in September and October, when summer crowds have decamped, afternoons remain very warm, grapes are harvested, and the leaves on the vines turn to rusty shades of gold and red.

Know before you go

Summer weather here is hot and dry, sometimes reaching extremes—if you’re embarking on a hiking or cycling trip, make sure to wear a hat and sunscreen.
If you’re fishing, make sure to purchase a license at one of the many local retailers that offer them and keep it with you at while angling,
While Osoyoos has a number of stores that offer food and basic supplies, if you’re looking to stock up on camping gear, you’d be well advised to purchase in a larger city like Kelowna, to the north.
