Weekend Trip to Salmon Arm Camping Resort
Cute cozy cabin. Nice quiet campground. Having power was very nice, Fridge and heater being included was PERFECT. I would take an air mattress next time for a more comfortable sleep.

I messed up the dates and they rectified it for me no problem when they called to find out if I was coming that day, it was the next day I thought I’d booked. Really helpful

1 night at Deep Creek Cabin And Tents
Super comfy bed. Fantastic outdoor shower was glorious on this sunny morning. Beautifully timbered cabin, shower and outhouse. Great spot for relaxing by the campfire up on a ridge.
Kind (and patient) host. Hot tip: use house number 878 for address if using Apple Maps!

This cabin was exactly what we needed. Quiet, simple, and surrounded by nature. Tucked away in the woods, it offered peace without pretension. Two fold-out chairs on the porch were perfect for sipping coffee and watching the trees sway. Inside, the space was cozy and warm with a wood stove that added charm and comfort. Our cat, leashed and curious, settled in easily and enjoyed the quiet as much as we did.
Though we had cell service, we rarely touched our phones, only for music and photos. The forest was more than enough. We spent our days walking short trails, watching light filter through the trees, and resting without pressure. At night, we built fires in the large fire pit and talked under the stars. The view through the trees was beautiful, especially at sunrise and sunset.
Everything about this stay reminded us to slow down. It wasn’t luxury, it was something better. Real, grounding, and quietly unforgettable. We left feeling lighter, more present, and deeply grateful and will be regulars here for sure.

Super cute cabin with an outdoor shower, toilet, and fire pit. Cabin was spotless. Very quiet during the night, and lots of cedar trees and gulls nearby made for a coast like feel. Highly recommend.

If you’re looking for the perfect rustic getaway, I highly recommend staying at Deep Creek Cabin on Darcy’s property. It’s got everything you need for an off-grid retreat—except it’s not totally off-grid since it has electricity! The amazing wood stove keeps the place cozy, there’s an outdoor hot shower that’s surprisingly refreshing, and the outhouse adds to the authentic cabin vibe. It’s tucked away in nature, making it the ideal spot to unplug (or not, since there’s power) and just relax. If you love cozy, simple living with modern convenience, this place is definitely worth checking out.
Comes highly recommended and will be back.
Thanks again to Darcy and his family

We had a wonderful, cosy stay at the cabin! The firepit was amazing, everything was so peaceful and private. The bed was so comfortable, and if you planning on staying in winter, the indoor fireplace keeps you so so warm! Loved our stay

Overview
At the north end of the wine-producing Okanagan, Vernon is close to the region's lakes, biking and hiking trails, and provincial parks. Kalamalka Lake and Okanagan Lake both have sandy beaches and spots for boating and canoeing. Several provincial parks, including Kekuli Bay, Ellison, and Fintry, have trails, boat launches, and campgrounds with both RV sites and tenting facilities, while private, full-service RV parks and camping areas with washrooms, hookups, and laundromats give campers other options close to town.
When to go
The hot, sunny days of summer are the busiest times to travel to Vernon and across the Okanagan Valley. With a much drier climate than the British Columbia coast, the Okanagan sees more sunshine from spring through fall, making April/May and September/October good alternatives to the summer heat. From mid-November into March, temperatures can dip below freezing, and snow is possible, although the winters are milder than in many other Canadian locations.
Know before you go
- The largest provincial park near Vernon is Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park, which is open only for day use. Campers can consider Kekuli Bay Provincial Park on Kalamalka Lake, Ellison Provincial Park on Okanagan Lake’s east shore, or Fintry Provincial Park on the west shore of Okanagan Lake.
- Several Vernon outfitters rent camping gear, as do companies based in Kelowna.
- If road-tripping between the Pacific Coast and the Canadian Rockies, stop in Vernon or elsewhere in the valley. Vernon is roughly equidistant from both Vancouver and Banff.
