Daniel and his father are exceptional hosts, ensuring a wonderful stay. The campsite boasts a stunning mountain-ringed location and offers all the essential amenities, including clean wash basins, a versatile water hose, and a spotless shower room. We arrived late, and his dad kindly assisted us with lighting for our tent setup. The site features ample parking, a powered electrical pole with multiple outlets, and a strong sense of security. It's an ideal, family-friendly spot in Osoyoos that I highly recommend and would gladly visit again.

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 :)

We had a good time at Fruit Haven. The owner's family is very lovely, and they show great care in managing their farm + campsite. The equipment is very convenient to use, and there are lots of adorable and artistic decorations around the site for us to experience and explore. The farm animals and fruit trees are beautiful, and we enjoy the view and the quiet time there.

Camping at Fruit Haven was perfection! Our kids loved it, we were welcomed with fresh peaches, and the orchard was beautiful. It’s small and rustic but has everything you need. 10/10 would camp again.

Only a few sites but we enjoyed our stay basically in Daniel’s “ back yard”. We travelled with a motorhome and enjoyed the water and power connection. There are chickens, a rooster (a very enthusiastic one in the early hours 😉), fruit trees ( we were allowed to pick some apricots 😋) Our 9 year old could safely explore the site which she enjoyed. Our three ( well 2 1/2) dogs we kept in the leash because we didn’t want them to chase the chickens. There are rivers on driving distance safe for swimming. Daniel is a great hostess , very friendly and welcoming, He made sure we had a great time. We will definitely come back! Thank you Daniel ( and your two assistants)

What an amazing slice of heaven this place is! Daniel and his family have created a magical place, and I highly recommend it if you enjoy waking up amongst lush fruit trees, free picking of apricots and peaches all you can eat, a secluded private spot with just a few friendly chickens hanging out, beautiful panoramic hills in the background that hug the valley! A little paradise perfect for a me to break up a long journey! Daniel was delightful and shared some great stories and tips to explore the area. Check out breakfast at Klippers Marketplace and take a focaccia bread for the road! So delicious! I will definitely return to Fruit Haven!! 💛

Lovely quiet spot and very welcoming host. We were ahead of the season but they were incredibly accommodating opening one of the toilets for us. We also made good use of the firepit. World definitely return.
