So beautiful! Quiet, well-developed sites for tenting or RVing (some electrical sites). Showers, beach, playground, right on quiet section of Columbia River.

A very nice campground! Right on the edge of the lake, lots of area to go for little hikes. The sites are kind of close to each other, so if you're looking for a lot of privacy you may not find what you're looking for. The staff was very friendly and helpful, they understand what people need when they're camping. Firewood ($10 per bundle) Pick a site that's not reserved and set up, they will come around and you can pay then. $30/ night + $12/ night for extra vehicle. The lake water was very low at the beginning of September, so if you're planning on bringing paddleboards etc be prepared for a bit of a walk down to the water.

The Camp Operators do an outstanding job. The grounds are constantly maintained, the bathroom and shower facilities are spotless and well maintained. The lake and beach and mountains are incredible. This place is pure magic and I don't use words like that normally or lightly. Highly recommend for a perfect camping experience. Go Camp Operators, you ROCK!!!

I love camping at this park. The beach is clean with golden sand and is not overcrowded by people. Water is clear and warm in the summer. The campsites are well maintained and well spaced apart from one to another. Hosts are very friendly. It’s not too far from Nakusp to get groceries. We will definitely come back here to camp again!

Super camping spot. Sites are nicely separated and level. Washroom and showers are new and clean. Some great hiking trails around plus a fabulous beach.
Jay Taugher — Google review
What a great place. Very quiet. Powered sites are a bit small and tight together. We got site 18 which is powered off by itself very close to the water and beach. Beach is nice and sandy. Water is awesome clear and cool. Free showers and $5 sani dump. I highly recommend

Beautiful campground. Staff were very friendly and helpful.Most of sites are quite sloped so bring lots of leveling blocks.

Our absolute favorite park to camp at. The lots are spacious, far enough away from your neighbors to have good privacy. The beach seems to go on forever. The park is very well maintained and well definitely go back again. 🙏

Calm and relaxing location. Big sites. Lots of room between sites. The beach and the views are amazing. Saddle mountain, and a broad view both north and south. Nature trail nearby which is good to do with young kids. If you're expecting inclement weather, be prepared. It can really rain in this area.
Anthony Knezevic — Google review
A beautiful gem! Campsites are all well kept. Thete are free showers by the entrance with a dishwashing station, too. Its Pit toilets, but the staff clean on a regular basis. The beach is fabulous, you can walk forever. It's great for paddle boarding, fishing, or just sitting on the beach. Campsites are medium sized, good space between your neighbours.
Portable drinking water, and a sani station. Generators are allowed 9-11am & 6-8pm. There is firewood and ice available from the park operators, who are friendly and helpful. Nakusp is only a 10 miniute drive to town where there is a beautiful little town with a fantastic waterfront walk and park. Lots of restaurants, pubs, coffee shops, liquor stores, and a save on-foods.
Highly recommend this beautiful Zen campsite. It will be a regular visit for us.
We went in September, the best time to go...quiet and relaxing 😌

Our experience camping is nothing less than awesome. We were amused by how many things you would be able to do here like kayaking, boating, beach volleyball, stargazing and lots more! There are numerous scenic, picturesque locations for photo op if you're looking for frame worthy pics.
The park itself is beautiful, scenic, and individual campsites are spacious (nestled between the trees), the camp facilities are clean and well-maintained. They offer flush toilets, pit toilets, dishwashing area, shower rooms, potable water supply. Some campsites are literally near the lake and the rest are just minutes away (say 5mins).
The hosts and rangers are awesome, accomodating and very helpful. Kudos to you guys!
The park itself is a definite recommend for everyone who likes serene and peaceful setting surrounded by trees near the lake.
This is going to be one of our favorite campsites!

My most favourite bc Provincial campground! Sites are set back along the beach and a lot have private beach access. A bunch of extra sites were added in this year, although these are less shaded than the old sites. Nice clean drop loos, also a shower block, playground, dog beach, $5 sani dump, powered sites (although these have no shade), boat launch. Quick drive from Nakusp where there is a Save On, petrol station (with propane and diesel), few small restaurants, pet shop, dollar store. Beautiful campground, beautiful location and I couldn't reccomend it more!
Jess Gunn — Google review
Well kept and maintained provincial park. Well shaded camping spots (without power), spots with power don't have as much shade. Hot showers, upgraded pit toilets, long sandy beach with lots of spots to access, recommend bringing a beach umbrella. You can paddle across the lake to another beach too. The playground is new. If you have bikes bring them as spots can be far from showers, also handy to get to playground. Well situated for trips to the hot springs and Nakusp. Volunteer host Wayne was super friendly and helpful as were the park staff. Firewood and ice available to purchase.

Just beautiful, views are breathtaking, quiet and peaceful place, lots of available RV spots and services. clean facilities. easy access and exits. fire pits are clean and well taken care of. only 10 minutes drive from downtown.
Nakusp Hot Springs is a rustic lodge situated in the Selkirk Mountains that offers two outdoor pools filled with mineral-rich water from nearby springs. Visitors can enjoy stunning mountain views while relaxing in the hot pools, one of which is piping hot and the other warm. The pools recycle their contents frequently to maintain their sparkling clarity.
Really enjoyed this hot spring experience! Came on a Friday afternoon and it was very relaxed. 2 different pools - one at 37 C and one at 41 C. Cold shower available outdoors. Really awesome atmosphere in the trees and nature. A must visit! Check out the lovely trail as well!

We came for the hot springs, having stayed in town. Very clean and well-supplied changing facilities. You don’t need to buy water, there’s a fountain right near the change rooms by the pools.
The springs are lovely and the view is out of this world. Well worth it!
Don’t miss the trail that leads to the waterfall, it’s a 10 minute walk at most, across a sturdy bridge.
Mitra Remy Jordan — Google review
Great spot just a short drive from Nakusp, great value compared to other local resorts for either a full day or single dip. We went early in the AM on a weekday and it was nice and quiet, we also went on a Friday evening and it was a little busier. There is camping and accommodation on site, they have some snacks and drinks available onsite but limited. The road is quite winding so take your time. We will be back next time we are in Nakusp.
Alison Beaumont — Google review
Perfect getaway. It’s quiet and away from the city. The rooms are affordable and clean. You are connected to another room above or below you. The upper ones are larger and the lower are smaller. The smaller ones are perfect for 2 people. It’s a quick walk to the pools from the chalets. The service is good. I’ve been here tons now and have never had an issue. There are hikes in the area. As many others have said make sure you bring food there isn’t much food options at the front desk. Also no reception but there is wifi at the chalets and front desk area.

We've been coming to Nakusp as a family for 38 years. I'm so happy to be back again after these past 2 pandemic years. Staff was friendly and helpful, the pools were amazing as always. I am going to have a hard time getting back on that highway to head home. Thanks Nakusp! See you sooner than later!

It's a nice place and what you'd expect for a hot springs. Very clean and tidy. Parking is limited, and there is no cell service there. There are two pools, including a large one that is at about 99 degrees Fahrenheit and a smaller one that is closer to 105 degrees. The road leading to the hot springs is narrow and not always fully plowed, but generally, it is accessible.
Greg Valdez — Google review
Clean facility compared to Banff hot springs. It was busy when I went at night just before August long weekend. Better than I expected. It's a really beautiful hot pool tucked in between the mountains.
Mitchell Shaw — Google review
Just a pool, but magnificent. Clean and fresh, very good setup. Doesn't have the most natural feeling but definitely relaxing. The drive to Hot springs was fun and scenic! Definitely recommended.
Steve Saramaga — Google review
The hot springs were lovely, very clean and the location can't be beat. I feel like there's a missed opportunity in terms of cafe/gift shop. The location is really remote and it would be nice if there was something in the way of food for purchase, or small necessities like sunscreen, hand lotion, etc.
Catherine R — Google review
I can't comment on the accommodations but the all-natural hot springs pool is very clean and a great price. Also, the hiking trail from the parking lot to the mountain source of the hot springs is well worth seeing. It's truly awe-inspiring.
Sue Blanchard — Google review
Cheap price at $16.50 per adult.
However, the change room showers were out of order, so everyone had to use the 1 washroom to shower. Also, the hot springs are quite small and can easily get crowded (though the people offer interesting conversations).
This is a basic intro to hot springs. You get what you pay for, but Haycion offers better everything.
Xiao Nan Liu — Google review
We loved the place! Beautiful and warm (of course) my son who hates water even loved it!
Perfect for a midnight swim after a long drive!
This is man-made, if you want natural you'll have to go for a hike, they say the old one was drained forever ago but I imagine there's still some up there somewhere!
Giving it a 4 star just because we were very disappointed that it wasn't a natural springs, we didn't find out until arrival

Unlike radium this hot spring is not popular. The water is hotter than most hot springs however. Our lodgings were great and were literally a five-minute walk to the hot springs. Nothing special to say about the rooms. They were serviceable and we slept
Mike Dirks — Google review
My family just went to enjoy the hot spring pools. The price for a family is reasonable. The facilities accommodate those that prefer to change in private. We were able to get a lock for the locker with the fee refunded when it was returned. There were several pool noodles around that were free to use. There was a cold shower to one side of the pool. There is a fountain accessible from the pool. We had no issues with the facilities or the staff.
Alex Mathews — Google review
Came here for the Hot Springs. Arrived first thing at 9:30 it was pretty quiet and I almost had the springs to myself. Staff were very friendly and the facilities are good. There is a place to buy snacks and drinks however it is very limited option and there as a necessity so I recommend bringing your own. The changing facilities are great, clean and tidy. And there is a free water fountain by the pool. I recommend bringing a lock with you for the changing rooms if you don’t want to pay $1 + $6 refundable deposit. The pool was clean and had a great view into the hills. Overall I would highly recommend and I am looking forward to coming again.

Nice little hot springs surrounded by mountains. Very clean change rooms. I suggest you bring your own food and drinks since the cafe has limited food to offer.

One can always find something to complain about...but, you know, this place is such a gem. The two pools are great. One pretty hot, the other less so. Lots of locals, lots of chatter.
There is no food or drinks available, so bring something to eat at the tables.
Gary Haupt — Google review
So...it was Okayyy....very underwhelming though. Our room was the smaller suite of the chalet....and it's very small. Literally a bed and kitchenette within 3 feet of each other. The bed was hard and uncomfortable and there was no head board...so literally just a mattress. The kitchenette was nicely stocked though. The bathroom didn't have a shower, only a tub because of the angle of the roof :/.
The pools were nice, but also a little underwhelming. There's also just nothing around the area so it felt a bit "shack in the woods" instead of escape or retreat in the luxury of a hot spring.
And the staff just seemed...annoyed we were even there lol and annoyed we asked questions related to our stay :|

NOT SUITABLE FOR FAMILIES.
This place admits nudists. You would think that this is a family place, and you would be wrong. In liberal BC, the comfort of topless hippies is more important than the comfort of families. Go to Halcyon.

It is a bit of a winding mountain road to get here, and first impressions as we arrive were great. There are 2 pools, the smaller one having the warmer temperature. Nestled near a mountainside, all you see are the beautiful coniferous trees which is lovely, and no road noise at all. It also looks like there are cabin rentals and camping spots. The pools admission fee was very reasonable, but be aware there is a charge and deposit for each towel you take and each lock. You can always bring your own. Food? Very little to offer, and what was offered was microwaved frozen dinners, not impressive by any means. If you are traveling, be sure to dine before you get here. Reception upon arrival was very cold, uncaring, and rather short with us. Having never been here, one would have thought reception would have been more welcoming. The drive from Vernon here was interesting and the 6 minute Needles Ferry ride was nice. Perhaps I expected more out of Nakusp, or really, I did not know what to expect ... but certainly didn't expect such a cold welcoming. Coming from Saskatchewan, there are other hot springs around BC interior with way more friendly staff.

We love this walk I takes you along the waterfront in Nakusp. It starts near the beach and ends at the dock. Along the way you will find several gardens with fantastic views.
The selection of flowers is amazing and well kept.
There are several benches and chairs to enjoy the view of the lake and mountains.

Spent a weekend just outside of Nakusp and while there were unfortunate freedumb rallies and businesses supporting non-masked patrons; this place *wasn't* one of them. We drove through town intending to buy a tea for our drive but weren't going to support businesses with poor selfish ethical decisions. It was fluke that we saw this place (masks required) due to turning around, and I am SO GLAD we did! We spent 60$ and don't regret a penny of it. The chocolate is fantastic, and the options are endless! Great for gift giving or for your own inner treat craving. Go here. You won't regret it!!!

Regrettably, Jennifer Chocolates was closed the previous time I passed through Nakusp, but grace had me travelling at a more civil hour to make acquaintance with the owner and indulge in her well-tempered, house-made creations during a recent road trip. Whimsy and modesty pair well with a deft mastery of this ancient craft, resulting in delectably-savoured moments of bliss.
I found (and shared) the chocolate-covered liquorice upon my return home and… mmmm.
Oh my - mail order is available.
Thank you, Jennifer Chocolates. 🙏

May very well be the best chocolates you will ever have in your life. Might be an exaggeration, but probably not. I've heard fellow travellers say 'if you go to Nakusp, don't miss Jennifer's chocolates'. I would add, if you travel to BC, don't miss Jennifer's chocolates. You'll get the added bonus of being in one of the most beautiful parts of the world.

Upon arriving in Nakusp, the individual had made a booking at a campsite that turned out to be closed. However, they were able to seek assistance from the Nakusp Chamber of Commerce's Visitor Center and received excellent help. The center not only helped them arrange for a new campground but also provided information about local matters such as traffic and ferry schedules. The individual expressed their gratitude for the exceptional aid received.

Halcyon Hot Springs is a property that offers uncomplicated accommodations, a spa, and dining. Situated on Arrow Lake with breathtaking views of Monashee Mountains, the resort combines nature's elements with rejuvenating treatments. From massages to dry skin brushing to hot/warm springs experience, Halcyon Hot Springs provides an unforgettable spa experience.
Very relaxing trip. The staff are VERY helpful (they brought us propane and saved our butts when we locked ourselves out of our chalet as well). The chalet is perfect, with a BBQ, kitchen, small sitting area and two bedrooms. I must say too, the temperature control is awesome (had to cool down our room a bit and it was almost instant). The pools are perfect (the warm lazy river is #1). If you can, bring something to help you float a bit and just enjoy the water taking you slowly through the pool.

Nice spot, very remote but pools are fun, Restaurant food is great, especially for being in the middle of nowhere.
That said, for $700/night, forcing adults to leave the pools at 9pm sharp so they can then rent them privately (for extra dough) is kind of tacky. Charge us more and let us enjoy them till 10 or 11. It's not a noise issue. Overall, enjoyed the stay, staff worked very hard. Appreciated,

I’ve been coming to Halcyon Hotsprings Resort for over 10 years. I have had some issues in the past with service (especially during the pandemic). I have to say this was the best stay in March and I’m thoroughly impressed! The service was fantastic, we were upgraded our accommodation and it was wonderful! Very clean, quiet, and a gorgeous view. The free breakfast that was included was incredible - full meals and a good variety (so much more than just muffins and fruit that you typically get at other hotels). The restaurant menu is fantastic and of course those views are stunning! It’s such a beautiful, remote location and completely worth the trip each time. I’m so impressed and will definitely be back.

Just an amazing 3 days in this beautiful location. The accommodations were excellent, the resort itself outstanding! There is nothing better than a relaxing evening float in the mineral pools which we did every night. The food was spectacular, and we were fortunate enough to take part in a special meal hosted by their amazing chef Darryl featuring multiple courses paired with local beer, and served in the lakeside gazebos overlooking the lake. It was truly outstanding. We have already recommended this place to many friends and will definitely return to Halcyon Hot Springs!

We come here every year, it's one of our favorite wintertime vacation spots! The pools are nice and calm with a beautiful view of the lake and mountains. There's a small "lazy river" that you can float around and around in with the new pool noodles, such a nice addition this year! The room we stay in allows dogs and is a nice little separate cabin equipped with a kitchenette for basic cooking. Would love to give 5 stars but the only downside to this nice resort is its location AND lack of affordable meal options on site.

I went here a few years ago and it really sticks in my mind as a place I need to return to! I was on a solo trip and popped in for a quick dip, which turned into being an afternoon of fun! I met so many people, everyone was so friendly and we all chatted! There’s one warm pool with a circle of fun, where the water flows, a hot tub, and a cold cold, get in for 30 seconds, kind of tank!
Amazing beautiful spot, and great prices!

Absolutely enjoyed our entire stay here. We booked a king cottage as it's one of the newer accommodations. Rainfall shower, bidet, fireplace, tasteful design, etc. Loved that there were 3 different temp pools as I'm pregnant and couldn't stay too long in the hottest one. Would highly recommend the spa. THE best and most relaxing massage we've ever had. We were booked with Amanda and Martha for a couples massage. Super attentive and just amazing at what they do. Everyone we encountered at the front desk was friendly. Someone (didn't catch his name) even went out of his way to help us out as my husband forgot to bring swimming trunks 😅. Definitely one in the books for us!

Staying here is always a great experience.
We stayed in one of the queen cabins this time and although they have been upgraded it, it wasn't super clean and there were definitely some flaws with the upgrade. The stairs were too short to the point of being dangerous and we banged our knees on the bed footboard at least 10 times! Other than that it was a great time!

What a beautiful getaway. We went for one night and wished it had been longer. Our check in was easy and the staff at check in were friendly and answered all our questions. We rented a chalet and it was gorgeous. Comfortable bed and all around great accomodation. The pools were all so nice and clean as was the entire resort. The evening pool time was so nice with the cool breeze off the lake. We had an incredible dinner and our waitress was awesome. . It was a perfect one night getaway but next time we will stay longer.

Blissful experience! My girlfriends and I went for the day, to enjoy the Yoga, Lunch, and Soak offering. From start to finish it was magical. The one hour of very well taught yoga class was followed by a yummy lunch with stunning views. Then the luxurious long soak made for a revitalizing whole day that we all felt for days and days following. Extremely well priced too! Thank you!

Fantastic setting at Halcyon hot-springs, with limited public use of hot pools so it was mostly for paying guests un like other hot springs near by.
The food was hands down amazing with a great menu. Sitting out side you feel like your right over the lake with the Mountain sunset whilst dining.
Staff were so helpful with anything needed. The cabin was spotless and all brand new
Great value!!

We stayed for two nights. Overall was nice. I understand the unique location and amazing view, but I don’t see how the prices are considered reasonable when you have to share random day-use customers in the same pool. That just makes the pool feels too busy. That’s how to end of the adult pool time after dinner time is the best time because there are no random walk-in people and much quieter.

We visited in July 2023. Pools are nice, and food was good at the restaurant. We brought up a few issues to management and staff and nothing was done at all. Very poor customer service. If you have kids make sure to bring extra food and snacks as nothing is available from 9pm-9am. Would not go back again, not worth the cost when there are so many other hot springs in the area.

After a long, hot drive we arrived only to find I had made a mistake in my booking (totally my fault) and we didn’t have a room. The resort was pretty full & housekeeping had gone home for the day. The staff went above & beyond to have maintenance set up a gorgeous chalet for us. Big shout out & thank you to Melissa for her awesome service. We enjoyed the hot pools, the resort is beautiful & very relaxing. Can’t wait to come back & stay awhile.

The restaurant was great. Adam deserves five stars. Chef is brilliant. The property feels unfinished. Little bit like a logging camp. Lots of unfinished logging, tree and rock debris. Pools were wonderful. Strange bedroom layout. Front desk was hostile not hospitable. One guest came by with a complaint and there was a shouting match. The restaurant fan swirls cooking oil smell up toward the cottages and cabins. Go for a wonderful swim and the food. No room service is offered.

Staying here right now, and upon arriving at the resort at 5:30 pm to check in "check in is at 4pm" we arrived to a dirty used room...... Soo disappointing, the hotel offered nothing but an apology to make up for it, we went into nakusp and grabbed some things and got back at 7pm, to I hope was a properly cleaned room and new sheets. Second day it took me until 5:30 pm to get new towels and talking to the front desk staff 3 times, they seemed confused why I wasn't getting any amenities, communication was lacking. The restaurant was ok, food was a little pricey for what you got. The pool was nice, crowded but was to be expected.

Hot springs are wonderful. Relaxing. The service was hard to get ahold of on the phone (they didn’t pickup) and then we could not get bedding for our rooms (the pull out beds had minimal bedding).
The restaurant and cafe food quality is excellent but the prices are very expensive. We mainly cooked in our chalet.

Our family really enjoys Halcyon. Beautiful setting, great pools.
We recently got 3 rooms for our kids, grandkids and ourselves. Upon check-in, credit card was charged the 3 room charges + $200/room. At check-out, credit card was charged the actual rates. 5 days later, the check-in charges of almost $2000 sit as pending on the credit card. Staff have apologized for not informing me of this at check-in: that the deposit charge will sit on your credit card for up to 5 business days!
This is an inconvenience, and I expect for some, it may moreso cause difficulties with their spending ability.
Writing this so people can be aware of how this will shake down for them - and hoping management will alter the practice. Other hotels do something similar but the deposit is cancelled at the time the actual charges are processed - not 5 days later.

Should be more welcoming to locals… new owners seem to forget we were here first. I think we used to receive a discount but don’t now (that was nice)
Great pools , great restaurant clean facilities , bathrooms could use updated , paper towel in the bathroom is the best in the whole world , the dine and dip menu needs to be updated , happy hour and something affordable on menus would be nice for ppl who aren’t billion airs and there helli ski
staff is polite , grounds and gardens are surreal

For the past 7 years. I've been traveling to Ainsworth x 2 a year. Always driving past Halcyon. This year. We decided to book at Halcyon. Regretable difference. Night and day from Ainsworth. Our Chalet was night. Outfitted with the cheapest furniture. Sweet couldn't even sit on the hideaway couch. It kept sinking in. Water was leaking through the wall from the other bathroom. The Cafe looked like it was closing down for the season. Also, very $$$. 2 appies from the restaurant were extremely disappointing. When I went to go ask for the Manager regarding complaints. After going to their office. I was advised. On one was in and to send an email. Very unprofessional. Take your $1k and go to another hot spring.

Horrible customer service from guest service. Rooms are not being cleaned properly, even after you wait 1 hour past check in time for a room. poor food quality for fine dinning, very limited menu at their new cafe, the only option for breakfast and lunch. Change rooms are disgusting and dirty. Zero management accountability, seems like the staff hate their work environment and spend most of the time on their cell phones. Horrible spa experience,. the worst massage experience, only one person working in the spa and they are clearly not a trained massage therapist.
Great place for a drop in day pass but save you money to stay elsewhere.
Blanket Creek Provincial Park is a recreational and camping destination that boasts of a man-made swimming lagoon, playgrounds, and adjacent trails. The camping spots are picturesque with well-kept amenities and clean showers. The staff is friendly and accommodating to visitors. Although mosquitoes can be abundant in certain areas, those closer to the lakefront camping spots experience less of an issue due to increased windiness.
Its Revelstoke, so its awesome!! Blanket Creek has a campsite that is $15/night first come first serve. Amazingly they accept tap, so you don't need cash. Rock climbing, biking and scenic Waterfalls nearby.

This Provincial Campground has been a favourite for decades and we enjoy spending time there every summer. Private/treed/lush forest campsites, cell service, flush toilets/showers, man made lake/beach/kids play area, walking trails, waterfall, separate dog beach for off leash dogs, and easy access to Revelstoke and all it has to offer in and surrounding it. Would recommend to all, beautiful spot to make life long memories 😊❤️

This is one of the nicest provincial parks that we have visited this summer. There was a small swimming Lake which we unfortunately didn't get to use because it was a little cool, but outside of that the actual camping spots themselves are beautiful. All the amenities and showers were very clean, and the staff was friendly and helpful.
The mosquitoes were abundant, but not so much closer to the lakefront camping spots, it was a little bit windier and ironically not as wet.
There's a short little hike to the waterfalls which was very easy and not to be missed if you're spending some time in the campground.

Such a great campsite! The sites are nicely private with lots of trees and shrubs giving lots of distance between sites. The facilities were cleaned daily but hot dirty quickly so more of a camper issue than a campsite issue. Quick walk to the Sutherland Falls with a nice hike to the top of it. Also quick walk to the river where you can spend some time on the beach there. Very close to other sites to hike Revelstoke. Overall a great campground with lots to offer. Loved it and will camp there again next summer.

Blanket Creek Provincial Park is a beautiful location just 25 minutes south of Revelstoke. Nestled in the forest along the upper Arrow Lake, it offers completely paved roads, large private campsites, pit toilets and shower and flush toilet facilities. Potable water and dump station. Campground host on site and park staff who are just great at keeping this park in top shape. Day use area, large swimming lagoon with surrounding lawn, hiking trails, children's play area and my favorite is spectacular sandy beach which is off leash dog friendly. It's quiet at night even when full this past July 1 weekend. Moutain biking and hiking trails nearby. It has become a favorite spot for us.

My family loves this park. The sites are really nice and well spaced. The swimming beach is great for kids and I love the sand of the lake. There is alot todo for small kids. The waterfall and hiking trails are not overly hard and easy for a toddler to walk. We love biking the roads and playing in the park. You can always find some shade or sun if you want. The pit toilets are super clean and the comfort station is not a far walk from any of the sites. The staff is friendly and ensures your safety.

Very beautiful park. Sutherland falls is an awesome little place to go visit. Its barely a 5 min hike in from where you park and the views once you climb on the rocks is amazing.
The rest of the park is an excellent place to bring your kids so they can burn some energy.

Beautiful Campground. Sites are large and private and well sheltered. There is on site showers and firewood for a reasonable price for purchase.
There is a dump station, and a place to fill up fresh water.
There is a private swilling hole, with sand around the entire swimming hole, but the water is chilly.

Love a day at blanket! The small lake is great on warm days when you don't want to get into freezing cold water. Mixture of sand and grass beach. Safe place for kids and families to enjoy a swim and play on the park. Small walk to waterfalls. Clean campground.

Amazing camp ground with showers on site included with camping fee. Bring your water craft and mountain bike trails and a lovely lake close by. Love the huge trees. Definitely be coming back!
The Mount Revelstoke ski resort boasts two hotels and more than 65 ski runs, as well as dining, a spa, and heated pools. It has been named the Best Canadian Ski Resort at the World Ski Awards for this year. With over 3,121 acres of fall line skiing and North America's most vertical drop, this resort is ideal for skiers looking for an extensive experience. Moreover, families who are comfortable on the hill can enjoy beginner runs as well.
Loved our time spent here. Great fun on the Pipe Coaster - that's a must!! The gondola is a great way of seeing the fabulous views - especially from the top! Lovely restaurant there serving fantastic food. Great place for hiking & mountain biking too. Highly recommend a visit!

This resort is huge and vast. The first time skiing there, I lost my way. It's worth trying the highest elevation and longest run in Canada.this resort is also part of mountain collectives pass that you can get half price discounts from other partner resorts like sunshine or lake louise. It is open until mid April and after that is closed for maintenance and then reopens for mountain biking and trails hiking. The pipe mountain coaster is a unique experience for you and your kids.

We got the play all day pass, you can buy in advance and save 15% my son did the pipe coaster, aerial park and axe throwing. You can pick the number of runs for the coaster. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. We went mid-week so not too busy. Spent about 4 hours at the mountain and finished with lunch at the McKenzie Outpost at the top of the mountain, best burgers in Revelstoke.
Alison Beaumont — Google review
We had a fantastic time. Did some hiking, mountain biking and the pipe mountain coaster. We asked for assistance with directions and a patroller named Mike was able to help us. He's super knowledgeable, very friendly and approachable. He even recommended the restaurant at the mountain when we asked if there was anywhere good for lunch. Man was he right. Everything we ordered was delicious! We can't wait to come back again.

Sorry Revelstoke Resort but the Town of Revy is doing all the heavy lifting.
OK so here goes. Will not comment about the snow as we had a heat wave in mid March so that’s all about Mother Nature not playing ball. It’s an awesome ski town. Yes the resort has some nice fall line and some easy to access side country. Now here come the “buts”.
The town is doing all the hard work for the resort. The resort needs to mature a little. Yes the grand plans of old to install lots of new lift that expand the terrain have not happened. “But” there is so much that can be done to improve the vibe of the resort. A simple food truck with some tunes and good food at the bottom or top of Ripper chair would create some options and vibe. Mackenzie Outpost, is on the money, “but” get some more lounge chairs 50% of the people are looking for. Spot to sit, lounge and spend money (take a research trip to a European resort and see how it’s done with simple sun lounges).
Revelation Lodge - For the current owner just remember it’s not a Denny’s, it’s got zero vibe unless you like public school halls.

We spent nearly a week here and it still didn't feel like we ran out of things to do (or beautiful scenery) - very worth the long long drive out from Calgary. Bit too many moghuls by mid-day but they were soft, powder moguls so can't really complain :D

We didn't stay at the resort but visited for the day to ride the downhill trails. Awesome time. Short waits if any for the gondolas on a gorgeous Saturday was a pleasant surprise. One member of our group had a nasty spill and the Patrol staff were professional, thorough, knowledgeable, and extremely friendly.

The terrain is unbelievable!! Definitely geared towards more experienced riders and skiers. For the price, I wouldn’t recommend for first timers since you’ll barely get to explore and experience what the mountain has to offer. For everyone else, it’s a paradise 🙌🏼

Revelstoke is a gem! The slopes are uncrowded, and the ski runs are nicely groomed. Intermediate skiers can explore easier glades and terrains. This is my first time skiing through glades. Personally, I loved the Back40 near Ripper chair; it was so much fun!
Jie Z (Amy) — Google review
There might not be many lifts but the lifts they have are extremely efficient, and services a huge amount of terrain. There's great tree-skiing for all levels (check out the trees next to the Gnome Zone for beginner-friendly trees). Recommend the Revelation Lodge for food - much more spacious and comfortable than the Mackenzie Outpost. My only beef with the resort is that it's lousy with traverses, and the ski to snowboard ratio is quite high.

I fell in love with this place! The mountain resort is the only or one of the few ones in BC that allow paragliding pilots to use the lifts and take off in the resort. Just amazing! I did my first really long thermal flights there. Amazing views. Not just paragliding, also hiking and many other things can be done here.
I wanted to stay 5 days in Revelstoke and ended up staying almost 4 weeks. I just love this place!

Took my nephew on the mountain coaster, he absolutely loved it. One of the ticket options is 2 rides (there are 2 rails), axe throwing and free gondola up to the top, worth doing for the views. There is a small 15-20 minutes hike at the top as well you can do after having a nice burger & fries. A must do.

We were there on a beautiful, clear day. Gondola was only open part way up the ski hill and most eateries were not open yet (early season hours still). The Pipe Mountain Coaster looks to be a popular, family friendly activity!

The skiing is fantastic but what really sets Revi apart is its people. The team from the base of the mountain to the top of Stoke, Ripper etc are pure quality. Friendly smiles and a lending hand are the norm. I must single out Jordana and her Guest Services team. My group witnessed a situation they had with a challenging guest and they handled it with grace, maturity, respect and professionalism when it was not being reciprocated in the slightest by the guest. They deserve kudos and plaudits for their attitude and actions. Bravo!!!

We had a blast at Revelstoke in February 2024. The weather was unfortunately warm, and snow was minimal but we had a group of 15 and enjoyed the mountain immensely. We stayed in two AirBnb 15 minutes away. Loved the town. Chairlifts and Gondola’s were smooth and efficient, and the mountain was great to explore! We had a medium experienced group of skiers and boarders and were able to enjoy the majority of the mountain.
Look forward to head back in the future to shred the verticals with powder.
Awesome culture on the hill

Great snow at the top, above the main gondola. Lots of powder, fantastic conditions. Black runs are enjoyable. Got my legs pretty exhausted by the end of the day.

Pros and cons. Revelstoke is (normally) famous for great snow and lift-accessible terrain. This year in Canada (2023/2024 ski season), El Nino has been punishing everyone with poor snow conditions. I happened to visit Revelstoke on February 27th, 2024, right after a fresh dump of snow in Revelstoke, which I am grateful for. There were limited stashes of fresh powder to be found at the top... BUT
The new dump of snow, however welcome, was not nearly enough to provide adequate coverage for the middle portion or lower half of the resort; with almost every run closed below the Revelation Gondola, except for The Last Spike. Despite the sparse snow and limited terrain, you will still pay handsomely for the privilege of riding Revelstoke; with one single-day adult ticket coming out to a whopping 187.95 with tax. Yikes. I literally winced when I went to pay.
More positives:
Lunch was delicious. Butter chicken and a drink at the mid-mountain lodge for $27. I enjoyed it! Staff were friendly and helpful as always.
Overall, the cost was too steep. But everyone there made the best of things. It was a good day nonetheless. Plus, they say a bad day skiing is better than a good day in the office.

If you're looking for a bougie stay to go along with your ski trip, then this resort is for you! This resort is right in front of the gondolas, two outdoor hot tubs, an outdoor heated pool, which are all next to a bar, and their bathroom floors are heated!!
We booked their two bedroom suites and it came with a full blown kitchen. I'm taking a sink, dishwasher, oven, microwave oven, a fridge and refrigerator. There are a few restaurants, bar and cafes at the resort. If that isn't enough for you, the town is a short 10 min drive. There is even a spa place for massages and facials! I recommend booking your messages before you arrive for your trip, otherwise they will be fully booked.
If you book many months in advance and come on a weekday, prices aren't too bad and the ski resort isn't crowded at all. Parking for guests are all indoors in garages. You will need your hotel room card to open the garage doors.

Just returned from Revelstoke and wow, it’s epic! Forget the slushy snow of the Greater Vancouver area. Revelstoke’s champagne powder snow is a dream come true. The slopes are uncrowded, giving you the freedom to carve your path in peace.
Bonus tip: If you have a y2play pass, you can grab two days of free skiing and get a 50% discount on the third day.
Highly recommend for an authentic and exhilarating powdery experience!
Relaxed, shaded campground with cabins, a honeymoon chalet & a hot mineral springs.
Awesome stop on a road trip to warm up for a night! Friendly service, two different hot pools, decent cabins. We got a cabin in late July for about $150 / night that came with a 2-day pool pass, our own toilet, sink, cooking stove, microwave, mini fridge / freezer, queen sized bed, and heat (it was chilly at night). You need to bring your own linens and cookware. Pools had hot showers and flush toilets. Tenting here looked a little rough with the cold and trains running by - tents also don’t include the pool pass so I’d recommend the cabins if you’re looking to stay overnight and want to swim.

Hello, so I stayed here for a day and it was one of the worst experiences I've had the unfortune of going through.
My family of 7 were charged extra despite us being in ONE rv and not taking up any extra space (NO other campgrounds have ever charged us extra). Also, WiFi was promised but the receptionist just said use data... while that wasn't a problem, they charged us extra for the swimming pool, and not only that, the showers weren't working and NONE of the campers knew. We all had to ask each other to figure out why it wasn't working, or why the bathroom doors were locked. (despite it being WRITTEN on the door that the bathrooms r open all the time). Basic emenities were not met, no dump was there, and a small space for a RIDICULOUSLY expensive price. (157$) we have never had such a bad experience.
Would NOT recommend. 0/10.
P.S. Crazy Creek resort is an AMAZING resort. It has hot pools (not charged extra), so much space, didn't charge us extra for extra family members, IT has WiFi, all the basic emenities, and funnily enough, it costed LESS than half the price THIS resort had. (Also, Crazy Creek is beauitful)

Keep driving!!! They get one star simply because zero wasn't an option. The owner was rude and prejudice. The wife and I had been driving all day and it was coming up on 9 pm so we had to find a site fast before it got dark, this was the first campground we had seen in awhile so we pulled in, drove around checking the place out first. We weren't impressed as the sites were tiny and wide open and very close to neighbors, however like I previously said we were running out of time. I happened to notice at least HALF of the sites were vacant. So we pull in to the office and I get out to go ask for a site and the man standing there was about to help me, when I'm assuming his wife interjected after taking one look at me and tells me the campground was full and that they are closed... right. I could have argued my case but I kindly said thank you and left. Now I frequent BC to get away from Alberta on a regular basis, and had I wanted to deal with that kind of people I could have stayed where I live. I'm not certain if it was my tattoo on my neck that didn't tickle her fancy, or maybe she didn't like my clothes, car wasn't fancy enough, or perhaps the color of my skin?!? Regardless like I said just keep driving because less than 20 minutes up the road is an amazing campground with friendly staff great sites with privacy, the works. It's called revelstoke RV and resorts I believe. Exactly what you would expect to find in Beautiful British Columbia.

My family and I stayed in the Grizzly cabin and Beaver cabin. Didn’t know what we were getting in to as there is very limited info on the sites. The cabins are large and beautiful! An update to the site with pictures would be very beneficial I think. The site also appears to be out of date as both locations say no Oven but both do have functioning stove/ovens.
The hot pool was very hot but so nice especially because we stayed during a rainy weekend. The warm pool was also wonderful and my two daughters had a great time playing in there. It was the perfect temperature.
The owners were wonderful and very friendly from the moment we arrived.
Only giving 4/5 stars due to the train unfortunately. Not a fault of the owners or campsite just unfortunate location as the train is very loud and goes by at all hours of the day and night.
Would definitely stay again.

Camp site ok.
Hot pools we did not try. Seemed they were just ordinary (artificial) pools. Nothing special there.
Was kept awake most of the night by screeching grinding metal to metal sounds from the trains and their horns all night. (The trains go by very closely)

I have stayed at Canyon Hot Springs about a dozen times over the last 20 years. This visit was a tent site for a night.
We were in a fairly secluded area without anyone nearby. It had rained right before we arrived and rained overnight. Despite the moisture, it was a fairly standard camping experience.
While we enjoyed having a fairly tidy bathroom nearby, we were quite disappointed that the showers were not in use anymore. Imagine being sweaty, sticky and covered in bug spray and not being able to get clean. They need to let people know this is the case.
The $40 for a campsite is fairly high and does not include a pool pass. I feel like this place has not changed at all in decades, I wish they would invest in upgrades somewhere.
Josh Hanson — Google review
BUYER BEWARE:
We wanted to try Canyon Hot Springs out, but on route from Hwy 97 south then Hwy 1 westbound, there was a car accident and it stopped traffic to a stand still for four hours. I managed to contact the Canyon Springs Campground via text message only, to ask when the hot pool closed and they said 8pm, and were very short about there being no refunds for the campsite if the road remained closed.
We managed to pull in at 9pm thankfully.
The next morning I went to try the hot pools, and when we asked if my 7 month pregnant wife could just come in an sit on one of the many chairs they have around the pool, they said no. The two Chinese ladies we talked to behind the counter were very rude and the second lady went on about (her words) how "it would make everyone uncomfortable if the people sitting in the chairs were not in bathing suits", and that she would have to pay the almost $20 to enter. We left as they seemed more interested in getting our money than actually being human. Such a silly request, as the people in the pool would not have any clue whether the person sitting in the chair paid or did not pay, regardless you wouldn't think that having a women with a huge pregnant belly sitting poolside would be an issue, as everyone knows she should not be in the hot pools.
But that is their choice of how they want to run their business.
The place is nice and has obviously been around a long time. I think it needs to step into the 21 century, and step away from the nickel and diming, like coin operated showers, and all little things costing extra. However there is no gas or towns (amenities) in either direction for many miles. The "Hot Springs" is just a warm small swimming pool. So if you want a remote quite place it was good, but I would steer clear of dealing with management to make your stay more enjoyable.
We won't be back again, and I might suggest to skip this place altogether and stop at Crazy Creek instead which has all the same amenities and more, and is far more professional.

We loved it. What really makes this place for us is the hosts. Nicest people ever. Women at the front desk are so friendly and chatty. The groundkeepers are always our doing something, keeping it nice. Campground is so well kept, clean with beautiful scenery. Hot pools were perfect for the kids, it's a must when u go there. Huge green open spaces to play games if you want (bring your own). But be warned, bring bug spray! 🪰

Great gorgeous campsite. Big beautiful sites that are in the trees away from neighbors. Bathrooms are clean and hot tubs are hot. The owners were extremely kind and accommodating. Would absolutely stay again and recommend. Most of the bad reviews are for people just stopping in and not camping. Yes there is a train that was loud but it wasn't bad a night and during the day you don't notice it that much.

Great place to camp. Plenty of walking trails for our dog. The washrooms were very clean. Nice to be able to do laundry and the hot springs are an added bonus. With our camper van we opted for a pull through site. There is a train that runs behind the campground but as this part of the campground is for larger units, the sound shouldn't keep you from sleeping. Honestly, we hardly noticed it sitting outside as the trains move to a crawl because of the steep incline. Can't beat the views!

Probably fine if you are in a cabin, or trailer, but camping is quite the challenge for sleep. Sounds like a 100 car train coming through your campsite with squeaky wheels, How often? Sometimes every hour and throughout the night. On the positive side, site #100 has a great view and close to a nice bathroom, and the hot spring pools were nice. One pool is cooler than the other one, which is around 106 F. Also, it is a 25 mi. drive into Revelstoke on Hwy 1. * someone told us to check out the mountain slide course at the ski resort, especially if you have kids. Ps we left our campsite a day early.

My family and i spent three days here in early July. It was great. The log cabin we were in was fantastic. The owners and staff treated us with the utmost respect and were very hospitable.
The pools were great. Not too busy. Well taken care of. Clean and sanitary. Really enjoyable.
The campground is large but very well maintained. The owner seems to be going from dusk til dawn and it shows. Koodo.
It's very close to the railroad tracks but the sound almost rocked us to sleep Everything was great. We loved it, in fact we're hoping to go back in September.

We started a spontaneous family trip August long weekend. Everything was booked so we reserved 1 night stay online because that's all they had available but once we arrived the front desk staff did everything to get us an amazing spot for 3 nights. Everytime we visit the mineral pool we are greeted with smiles. Sites are great, washrooms clean, pool awesome...oh and the train passing thru is a great sound. We are already planning the next trip back.

We were not expecting much given it was right off the highway, but were pleasantly surprised - in the lower RV area, the sites were well-maintained, the washrooms were heated (!) and clean, and when we had a question, the staff came down to talk to us in person. Some of the other sites looked absolutely gorgeous. There are active train tracks nearby but the trains didn't whistle, so they mostly passed through pretty quietly. Worth the price, for sure! We just missed the opening of the trails and hot springs, sadly, but we will definitely be back!

These Hot Springs are fantastic! Love the location, on the way to popular BC destinations, just off the main highway. It's not as well known so not as touristy or as busy. They have a warm and a hot pool. We will definitely be stopping again!

Agnes was lovely to work with! We were a group of three sites with adult children and dogs. We had called for a short notice booking and she was very helpful on the phone. We arrived and changed our sites and she refunded the difference without a thought. It turned a potentially bad end to a B.C. vacation to a great alternative. Park was relaxed and gave breathing space to campers. Thanks!
-Sites 1-6 are basically a parking lot
-142-178 are combat camping sites - serviced but on top of your neighbors.
-103-136 (where we stayed) were great unserviced sites. Some smaller for sure but some quite long and very private! Only 25%full while we were there. Train was heard but not obnoxious from this location.
Hot springs was a nice treat but not worth a one day visit.
Road noise would be an issue with the sites close to the office.
20-25 mins from Revelstoke and both hikes close by were closed, so made for a lot of commuting for activities.
Healing trail on site is cute but only a 10min walk. Would love some more pathways through the campground- lots of nature preserved to see!
Jayme Middleton — Google review
Loud trains ALL night long. Like-screeching, louder than someone yelling next to you. Highway is literally 200m from the site with loud cars. At least offer ear plugs or something. They have a floodlight on all night?? Our tent was bright on the inside from it. Can’t see the stars. Poor signage- difficult to find the campsite. Staff was unfriendly. No discount for hot springs despite paying $45 a night for campsite (nearby campsites are $10). Something that looked like mould on the edges of the pools and showers. Really don’t recommend staying here or swimming in the pools. The only saving grace is that the forest and surrounding mountains are beautiful and the proximity to the park.

I have worked in the service industry for close to 30years with some of the top premium casual brands in Canada. Monashee Spirits is hands down THE MOST INTERESTING bar I have had the pleasure of experiences in far far too long. From the cleanliness, the selection is unlike anything I have seen, the pride in work displayed from the owner down to the staff. Honestly a complete dream for an old school guy like me to experience. And I will be reaching out to all my ski buddies to make sure they visit. Josh!!! You hit it out of the park!!!!

Started with the Dr Orders, and was going to try the Breakfast of Champions. My brother asked Shayla what she would order, and this was how I learned about The End of the Road. Fantastic recommendation, especially if you dig Islays, and a cocktail on the less sweet side.

I would give this place less than one star. If you are not a local don't come here as you will be disrespected... The server totally ignored us as we stood at the door for 15 minutes. Wouldn't even make eye contact. There were open tables right in front of us. There was only the two of us and it made no sense to be treated this way. Very rude and unwelcoming for tourists. I was looking forward to the exciting cocktails on the menu. But after receiving this horrible service I wouldn't recommend to anyone. If you want a good place head to the old school eatery and enjoy your evening with excellent service and food. While enjoying an excellent cocktail of their menu.
Oh by the way you might want to turn on your ventilation system on as your sauna room isn't cute

Three of our four different cocktails were solid. Ma Cherie tasted like cough syrup though.

Great little find! Good mix of cocktails that are made with whiskey, gin and a few other concoctions. Drinks range in the $12-$15 for 1-3 oz. BBQ and a Beer was so good, like a spicy whiskey sour. Neat space, intimate and not super huge. You can order food from across the street, at the Village Idiot.
You can also request the bar to make you any other drink!

This spot was very unique and offered signature cocktails with different ingredients. We sat on their patio which was dog friendly. Tons of options and the menu seems to be "rotating" through new items. If your a craft cocktail lover, this is a must stop!
Just the kindest people. And the trip was amazing. Due to the season (bad snow pack) we stuck on a ‘small’ amount of terrain but you’d never know. I can’t wait until I can’t make it back next year

Video presentation is not representative of the experience. Instead of wide open terrain most of your day will be spent skiing in the trees. If that's your thing, you'll have a great time, if you are expecting scenes depicted in the video, you'll be very disappointed. The guides are very professional, and although tree skiing isn't my thing, they tried their best to make the day enjoyable. Be sure to ask questions about what terrain you are going to be skiing before you sign up.

Best two ski days of my life!! We had amazing service from the moment we were picked up at our hotel. Our guides (Seb and Chris) and tail gunners (Kristen, Danny, Shay, and Eric) provided an amazing ski experience while at the same time, it was obvious that safety was always top of mind. We will be back!! Thank you K3.

You can really tell they have a passion for skiing and a passion for making sure their guests are well taken care of, especially in groups with mixed abilities. They teams were consistently offering a more challenging lines for the stronger skiers and really looking after everyone. Thank you very much!

The owner gave me his pants! Realized in the morning that I had my wifes' ski pants. We stopped at the owners' place on the way out to the cat so I could borrow his. The crew and the skiing were great. Having pants just made the experience that much better. Thanks Chris.
The Powder Springs Inn is a low-rise establishment with modest accommodations and a vibrant pub that serves traditional cuisine. Situated in a prime downtown location, this hotel offers comfortable rooms and an excellent bathroom with ample lighting and a noteworthy hand soap dispenser. While the cleanliness of the room was satisfactory, there were instances of bugs or flies present, which caused distress to some guests, particularly children. Furthermore, noise from footsteps in the room above and an excessively loud air conditioner proved to be significant issues during their stay.
The reviews had me a bit apprehensive, but the price hooked me.
Check in was easy, secured two rooms for a friend and me. Though my first room wasn't ready (it hadn't been turned over since the last guest), I phone the front desk and was instantly placed in a different room. So that wasn't a problem at all, things happen. The room was clean and the a/c worked well. The wall pump soap in the shower and at the sink was a bit unusual but not enough to to warrant complaint.
What truly made the entire experience was the bar that is connected to the hotel, The Last Drop. What a fantastic place! We just stumbled in, not even realizing it was there. The band was fantastic (Red Haven, from Vancouver) and the bar staff was amazing. Had such a fantastic time.
After a fun night of music and drinks, the bed back and the room was so cozy and felt like a cloud. I highly recommend this place.

For the price we paid I couldn't expect anymore. Rooms were nice size but dated, beds were comfortable and clean. Has a kitchen area and laundry facilities for guests to use which is a bonus if your touring or backpacking and need clean underwear 😁 Restaurant was good to had good deals for beer and burger or dozen wings and a Cesar salad for $12 each what more could you ask for.

Location, location ..... and a great place to stay within walking distance to all the downtown atmosphere. The room price was budget friendly, the bed was comfortable and a full 8 hours of quiet peaceful sleep. We looked past some of the rooms short comings because of the price and location. Watch the shower water temperature when the toilet flushes. Thanks for our stay ....
Jack Peters — Google review
The staff was friendly for the most part however I stayed there as a long term guest. The rooms were filthy and the bathroom was full of mould and it was only cleaned a maximum of 4 times after staying there for three months. They took little to no care in cleaning the rooms and on the weekends it was very loud and could hear the music from the bars and neighbors all night. The kitchen was always a disgusting mess and had no room for food storage in your actual room so you were forced to use the shared kitchen which would have things stolen out of it all of the time. Poor insulation as well. The heat never actually heated up the room and we constantly had a freezing draft from the air conditioner blowing in from outside. I was sick every day I stayed there because of the mould and the cold air. The website has a menu for the last drop which seems to be very outdated as some of the menu items have changed and even the same menu items were a lot higher of a price on the actual menu. Makes it difficult if you ever wanted to order room service. The emergency exits on both sides upstairs were never locked from the outside which made it very easy for anybody to just come in as they pleased which can be dangerous to the public. I feel like the owners don’t exactly care much about how the guest stay is as long as they’re getting money. Sad but I’m glad I’m out of there.

The hotel is in a great location in the downtown. We stayed two nights here. The bathroom was one of the best we have seen so far. It was well-lighted and we particularly liked the hand soap dispenser. The room was clean. One of the issues was bugs/flies in the room. Our daughter was scared several times seeing them. The two major issues were: the sound coming from people walking in the upstairs room and the air conditioner was too much noisy. I have never heard so much noise from the AC in North America. I would recommend changing the ACs ASAP. We liked the free coffee/tea/cold water in the lobby. Overall, good experience and probably come back if we are in Revelstoke again.

The one star is for the excellent location, and friendly staff at the front desk. Take the bad reviews for this place seriously; I wish I had. Sure it's a bit cheaper, but its not cheap. You'll regret not spending a bit more when you're unable to sleep because the mattress on the bed is so shot that you're sunk in a hole all night. Other reviewers commented on the thin walls, but our problem was thin floors! We could hear every footstep, floor creak and word from the people in the room above us. It was like being in a cheaply finished basement. We weren't offended by the age of the decor, given the price point of this hotel. The restaurant is overpriced for the quality of the food, and the average tasting craft beer. If you have to stay here, book a top floor room and eat somewhere else!

They booked us on last minute. The Lady that booked us was super friendly and helpful. Our room was large with a TV and a very comfortable bed. Check-out was easy and you are close to everything in the town. They have a really nice patio outside. If you are in Revelstoke this is a good stop and place to rest!

The location is great. You are within walking distance of cafes, the farmers market and the river. The Last Drop pub has good food and live music. The inn is a bit dated, some of the tiles were cracked in our bathroom. However, the rooms were clean, the wifi was reasonably fast and there is ample parking.
Clean, warm, had a "rapids" area and nice large wading are for toddlers/kids. Lots of random pool toys. Rock wall and waterslide were closed at the time we went. Hot tub great size too. Only downfall was $1 for a locker instead of the usual $0.25.
Robyn Tessier — Google review
A lot of fun to head here after a day of skiing. Hot tub, dry sauna, steam room, lazy river float. Expect it to be packed. Had to wait for folks to get out of the hot tub to make room. Steam room was also packed to capacity. Expect lots of unsupervised kids splashing around and running into you. Still worth the $7.25 CAN for access.

What a great facility! This I gather is the pool where the Summer Swimming club the Revelstoke Aquaducks train. I met a couple of their swimmers at the skills assessment for my Water Safety Instructor course. We threw a water polo ball around and it would be great to see a Revelstoke Water Polo team emerge so Kelowna Water Polo Swim Club can give them a game at some point.

Feb 2024- The pools are great, the kids love the big slide, rock climbing wall & diving board.
However…… they posted *new* rules that a parent must be within arms reach of 7YRS and younger! The staff enforces this, and are not kind about it.
We (3 adults) took 4 kids (five and under) for a morning of fun, and lost count on how many times we were ‘talked to’. The most upsetting was when my 5 year old son (who was wearing a lifejacket and being watched by me) walked 20 feet from the hottub to the pool and got in where I was, then had a lady lifeguard right there asking “that’s not your son is it?! Is he with you?!” and proceeding to tell me “he’s not in arms reach” and “you need to watch him”.
I take my 2 kids *alone* to the beach almost everyday in the summer. Being rudely told to “bring another adult” to a swimming pool that has lifeguards, lifejackets and a mom not taking her eyes off on her two boys is unprofessional, upsetting and not okay.

I wanted to use the fitness suite/gym here but was told the bottom of my shoes were too dirty and would clog up the machines. I said all I wanted to do was weights and I wouldn't be using the cardio equipment but I was then told that others in the gym might see my 'dirty' shoes. I even offered to clean them further but was still told no because I had been seen to wear them into the building (i.e. they had been used outside at least once).
The photos attached were the state of my trainers at the time.
For such a ridiculous reason to not let a paying customer use their facilities, I can't help but think there must be an underlying reason why I was refused access. I ponder the possible discriminatory motives... Socio-economic? Foreigner from Ireland/England?

The water temperature on the shallow side is nice and warm. Staff and life guards are friendly and attentive. The waterslide is good for kids, with a 42" minimum height requirement, and any kids under 7 need to have a parent waiting for them at the bottom. The kids side is quite shallow with a maximum depth of 1 meter before the lazy river.

Went to the pool, prices are good here and it wasnt too crowded, really like the wave/resistance pool. Only wished they had a littler pool for toddlers or babies. But love that they have floatation devices for the youngsters so no need to bring your own. The water today was warm, I've had it were it was cold before but today it was a pretty decent temperature. All and all my kids loved it and I've got 2 very tired kids.
What a beautiful little town of Revelstoke. Breathtaking views of the mountains. The visitor center is in the heart of downtown Revelstoke. Right outside the visitor center there is a beautiful metal artwork - it is one of its kind. Downtown is bedecked with beautiful flowers all over, which further adds to the beauty of the town. A must visit.

Great recommendations even in the rain. Farmers market downtown on Saturday (8am-1pm).

There were several items of interest at the museum for me. The scavenger hunt made the experience fun for our 7yr old (and us too). I loved learning about the original people of this land, the Sinixt, and would have liked even more about them and how they lived before, during and post colonial settlement. I appreciated learning about the creation of the reservoir, and how that impacted the people who lived there, as well as its environmental impact. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the gift shop was lovely. Thanks for having us!

Peak Axe Throwing is a sports club that provides an exhilarating and enjoyable experience for all its visitors.

Interesting railway museum. My kids liked seeing the trains up close - Staff were very kind. Not too many interactive displays for the kids and you have to pay extra an $2 to try the train simulator. They really enjoyed getting to board one of the indoor trains and exploring the outdoor train yard. Consider it a look and learn museum versus a touch and play one :) Very nice newly renovated accessible washrooms. There is a little gift shop with souvenirs and historical memorabilia but note there is no food to purchase on site. Expect to stay an hour or so.

Pretty good place to stop and enjoy some of the history. Decent for kids that love trains as well as adults. Don't orget the outside train yard has more but gets missed. Parking is great and even has chargers for electric vehicles.
Nice little stop off the highway as we were travelling through. The signage could be better as Google doesn't show the access road on Maps. Lots of hiking trails go up the mountain to this spot, and continue on to the summit. Alternatively, you can drive a switchbacking dirt road 23km from here to the summit.
There's a nice themed bike park here, especially nice for the nearby campers. Pit toilet, picnic tables, and garbage cans available.

Neat spot to see, didn't go all the way to the top but I think it goes to top of the ski jump area.

Such an amazing attraction! We did the hike up which is short but a good grind! Gives you a good appreciation of what the ski jumpers had to go through. It was so beautiful and green. Lots of wildflowers already! There is an easier access via the parkway if you don’t want the hike.

Meadows in the Sky Pkwy, Revelstoke, BC V0E 2S0, Canada
Mount Revelstoke National Park is a picturesque destination featuring wooded hiking paths, rainforest terrain and elevated viewpoints. Despite its smaller size of 260 square kilometers, the park offers diverse and stunning scenery including old-growth rainforests with giant red cedars and pine trees, steep mountains, and an array of plant and animal life. It also boasts one of the few inland temperate rainforests in the world.
Mount Revelstoke National Park is utterly incredible! It truly feels like you are off grid when wandering around the ample forest trails. The rain forest is something you will never forget and worth seeing on your next great adventure!
No matter the time of year, there is so much to do and see. We could go on forever and can't wait to share more with you!

We had to wait for quite a long time to drive up the parkway. It wasn't really a meadow. More of a mountain peak. Still fun to walk around and the trails were all accessible. Would recommend for families.

One of the most beautiful national parks in Canada. Very well maintained with informative maps and guidance posted in the trails and parking lots. Best time to visit is June for the wild flowers.some trails you can't take your dog because of bears. some other trails dogs allowed only on leash. Parking lot is not very big at the end of the road so in busy hours you may not find a spot. Multiple view points are in the road that you can stop and enjoy the view facing the Revelstoke city.

We stayed at snowforest over the May long weekend. This is a relatively new campground and we really enjoyed our stay. Sites are well spaced, bathroom and washing facilities are very modern and clean,wood is available for camp fires (make sure to bring an axe, not just a hatchet), and the trails literally leave from the campground to hike as far as you possibly like. Definitely going to become our regular stay when visiting Revelstoke. Highly recommend booking early for peak times. Limited first-come-first-servecspots available.

We loved the snow forest campground. Best bathrooms and showers of any campground we have been to. It's at the base of the road to thmeadow summit so very convenient. No trailers or dogs allowed at the top.
Greg Hancock — Google review
Amazing views! Beautiful paved road to the top. Viewing sites are just off the road, so very easy access and have picnic tables and /or benches. A must for site seeing, for tourists and locals alike.
Ron Bernhard — Google review
Really amazing fall colours on the entire drive up on the Meadows of the Sky Parkway. The park was closed at the Columbia lookout due to snow at the top. Mt. Revelstoke is one of the smallest park in Canada 260kms. Check out the Nels Nelson Ski Jump, Broken Bridge hike was a short 30mins hike in, Sorensen hike 2km and many more.
Be sure to check out Skunk Cabbage and the Giant Cedar Boardwalk on the drive into Revelstoke. Both short and a sweet walk with photo ops and views.

Always a beautiful place to visit. We were early in the season, so the road was only open half way, but beautiful nonetheless. Can't wait to go back in August when the flowers are in full bloom.
wade mcg — Google review
Don’t waste your time. Road is closed at 14 km away to summit. There is no any notice or sign at the entrance about road close. You will realize you have to walk 14KM to the top after you driving 20mins from the entrance. Maybe June or August will be better.

We did a fantastic half day hike from about 2/3 of the way up to the top of the mountain. I highly recommend not driving all the way up - there are some really beautiful trails and very helpful park staff eager to help anyone with questions. Highly recommend!
Michelle Haddad — Google review
The drive up to the top is spectacular! We did this drive in mid July and the wildflowers lining the road were beautiful. There were many hikes available along the way up, it was not congested with tourists, and parking was available in the middle of the day at the top. There was also a free shuttle up and down for those not able to make the short uphill hike to the summit. I would highly recommend this park and the sky meadow parkway for anyone who would like to enjoy the Canadian Rockies without crowds and with light to no hiking.
amy neal — Google review
We were here September 2017. What a beautiful spot! Definitely take the time and drive to the top and do some hiking! Be careful, we saw a grizzly bear! Place is safe, lots of park rangers around and the beauty of nature here is absolutely remarkable! The hiking is fantastic!

Meadows in the Sky Pkwy, Revelstoke, BC V0E 2S0, Canada
The Meadows in the Sky Parkway offers a winding ascent up Mount Revelstoke via switchbacks, featuring scenic viewpoints and a brief trail leading to the peak. The path is characterized by its numerous sharp turns, allowing visitors to enjoy breathtaking sights of the surrounding area. At the top of the mountain lies an expansive parkway that stretches across rolling hills and meadows, offering a sublime experience for nature enthusiasts who seek to explore the beauty of this picturesque destination.
Where do I even begin? The visual arts centre has given me the opportunity to reconnect with my creativity. The pottery studio space and courses that are offered have embellished my life in ways I never knew I needed. The staff are incredible and genuine. The centre offers so many different types of courses that have also helped to build confidence in my children. Thank you for giving us an affordable space to discover ourselves.

The RVAC is an amazing place for artists to find a community and display their work in Revelstoke. From longstanding Revelstoke residents to newcomers like me, the amazing people working there make it inviting for artists of all levels to create and share.
The gift shop is an amazing way to take home a piece of Revy and show support for the local arts scene. While you're at it, take a look at an exhibit and check out one of the amazing workshops if you're in town for a while.
Thank you RVAC!

I'm biased, as I think Hydro Dams are really cool. But it's a great stop for the whole family. Very informative and interactive guided tour. 6 dollars per adult is one of the more reasonable admission prices you'll come across. As well as a very decently priced gift shop. Thanks BC Hydro!

This is an interesting and educational tour. The views from the top of the dam are pretty great too. We enjoyed all of the hands on exhibits and we’re not even kids! The audio tour is a must if you don’t have an in person tour guide. The staff is friendly and helpful too. Highly recommend.

We visited the dam and visitor center a few days ago when we were visiting Revelstoke. While there we joined a free tour of the facilities. It was an interesting, informative and enjoyable experience. The view from the top of the dam is majestic. I took photos but none of them do it justice. If you're in the area, I highly recommend visiting it and joining one of the free tours.

Popular science green energy is very good, and it also gives children some basic knowledge of electricity. The construction process of the whole dam is introduced.The last visit was to the top of the dam.You can overlook the panoramic view of the valley and the power station.The wide flood discharge can take off and land.Very worthwhile.The introduction of hydropower resources in North America is also very detailed.The tour ends with an elevator ride to the top of the dam. It has a panoramic view of the valley and the transmission substation. The wide spillway can take off and land aircraft. It is well worth a visit.

Enjoyed our tour of the facility. It was interesting to see the history of the construction as well as learn about the future plans as well. Definitely worth the $8 admission for the guided tour.
Jason Legacy — Google review
$8 per person, $7 for kids. Very clean and informative the reason it gets 4 stars is because of the elevator that takes you up to the viewing deck. It’s extremely slow and you have to wait a long time for your turn. It’s also shared with the workers.
Jessica Whiting — Google review
Very impressive project. Recommend going with the dam tour as it’s very informative but staying behind when the group has left the viewing area at the top of the dam.
Going down the “very slow elevation” and waking through the cold tunnel along, you will hear and feel the vibrations of this great concrete structure.

Airways Printing — Google review
It looked interesting enough for a stop until we read the sign at the door advising us that this place "required donations which is like tipping and not tipping is UNACCEPTABLE in this country" . The capital letters are quoted, not my own emphasis. First of all, the best way to encourage someone to turn around and leave is to berate them before they even enter. Keep your air conditioned junk pile, it's not worth the trouble. Secondly, tipping is a custom that revolves around a certain level of service, I've never seen a sign like that outside of a restaurant and yet I tip every time.
You should reconsider your approach to welcoming guests, it's pretty pathetic - that's my tip to you.

I made a last minute drive to check out this falls and it was beautiful. The hike down had some steep parts but it's not a long hike. I found a nice pool to plunge in before heading down to the bottom to check out the dam on the river. The tide appeared to be up high. There is a gravel road that I walked up to get back to my car. I would recommend this falls and I would go back! I would love to see it in winter! Waterfalls are so pretty that time of year!
Jewels Lutovsky — Google review
What a beautiful place. Trail is steep but short. As you drive westside road, look on your right for a small parking lot with a sign signaling trail and falls. Water was low flow which brought some unique layers beauty to the scene

This is a very beautiful waterfall nearby river dam. There were beautiful flowers and the waterfall looks like a picture frame. It’s kinda tricky to find this waterfall, you better follow the broad gravel path by walking down. All the way down and turn left then keep walking. You will start hearing the sound of the waterfall then go up through a narrow trail and you will see the beautiful waterfall. It’s worth visiting. I saw one snake brown coloured and it was around two feet long . It was fat like an adult thumb. I got very scared and it’s first ever I saw a snake in Canada in 10years

This is the second time we have visited. Short walk to the falls. Pretty steep to get down to the falls but you can also fall the road down and access from bottom. Visited in October this time so water wasn't flowing as heavy as earlier in the season but still a nice quick stop. Note: there is an upper section, lower section is the nicer spot. Slippery on rocks and roots.
Tia Kjartanson — Google review
No signage but spot on google maps. I do not recommend driving down the rocky bumpy road to the bottom of the falls. From the base you walk a few feet and you’ll hear and see the falls. Park off the side of the road and walk to the side and look down. Nothing to rave about, it was a disappointment and nearly took out my muffler.
Lisa Chan — Google review
Waterfalls are beautiful no matter what. I give this one 3 stars because it isn't really posted the parking lot is just gravel and the path down is short but not necessarily easy. My 4 year old could not do the trek and needed lots of help. My 7 year old was fine. The path is narrow , steep at times and very much a nature path.
Stephanie Jemielity — Google review
Very short hike to the waterfall. It’s beautiful. You can go all the way to bottom of the waterfall and take a natural shower. Just a warning the water is really cold but very refreshing. Loved every minute of this hike.
Lily Beigi — Google review
A very short descending hike from the parking area ( however one will surely miss this parking area eventhough it's just alongside the road, no signage to watch for while you're driving and searching). This falls has two drops, the upper one is a bit smaller. The main falls below is spectacular, not too high but wide and the water cascades from the inclined rocks instead of a vertical drops.
Efren isonza — Google review
Went there first week of July. Google map shows it marked on Westside Road. To see the waterfalls you either have to hike about 15 to 20 minutes down toward Moses Creek Community Park at Columbia River or drive down to a sideroad which is steep, full of gravel & bumpy. The waterfalls is very beautiful & very powerful at this time of year because the glacier is melting.

I recently stopped at Victor Lake Provincial Park for a quick break, and I must say it was truly spectacular! The lake itself was breathtaking, surrounded by picturesque scenery. Although there were no designated seating areas, it provided the perfect opportunity to take a leisurely stroll and enjoy the stunning views. Overall, this park is definitely worth revisiting due to its magnificent vistas and natural beauty.
I just pulled over here for a break and it was absolutely amazing! Beautiful lake with a scenic view. No tables or anything but great to stretch your legs
Three Valley Gap is a small community situated beside the eponymous lake and the Trans-Canada Highway. It is an unincorporated area found 27 km southwest of Revelstoke, near the summit of Eagle Pass. Visitors can visit the Three Valley Gap Heritage Ghost Town, which was once a bustling gold rush settlement. Additionally, travelers can take a drive up Meadows in the Sky Parkway for alpine meadow hikes with breathtaking views.
Martha Creek Provincial Park is located on the Revelstoke Reservoir and offers a boat launch and sandy beach as well as campsites with restroom facilities. The beach has clean pebbles and some areas with sand, while the water is calm, clear, and swimmable. It can be slightly breezy but is perfect for activities such as SUP. The park is situated in a beautiful area near Lake Revelstoke and is highly recommended for camping enthusiasts looking to explore its natural wonders.
Excellent campground! Bathrooms and sites are immaculate and clean! Highlight is the park ranger Dawson! Great place, people, and nature!

Beautiful lake, campground & park. Boat access & small-medium sized beach with separate kid play areas & a small dog beach. Camp areas are nice & spacious, restrooms are clean & have hot showers. It’s a 20min drive outside of Revelstoke town & there is no cell signal.
Park staff are always very friendly & they have firewood when allowed.

We camped up here for 2 nights, absolutely beautiful, campsite was good , lake view, lake was beautiful, temperature was nice in the water and they have an off leash dog area too which is awesome. 28 dollars to stay but all round beautiful site
Keith Mc Cabe — Google review
We were so thrilled to camp here. The sites aren't terribly close together and there is quite a bit of privacy between some of the sites. There are fresh water stations, pit toilets, garbage and recycle disposals and also a sani dump to dump your grey and black water (the charge is $5). Your dog must be leashed and under control at all times, which is excellent for people who might have reactive dogs that don't appreciate off leash dogs running up to them. There is an offleash hike you can take your dogs on for some run time if you need.
The site itself was clean for the most part except people leaving their cigarette butts lying around. The campground is nice and quiet even during the day and the water of Revelstoke Lake is cold and refreshing. Definitely have your children in a life jacket if they're not strong swimmers as the drop off is extreme (20 ft down in steps from the water's edge in some spots).
Jasmine Machtaler — Google review
Possibly my favorite campground of all time. Beautifully taken care of. Asphalt lanes and nicely gravelled sites with lots of space between. If you reserve a site on the waters edge you get a private beach for those early morning paddleboards.
Be warned, if you are addicted to the cell phone you may struggle......or enjoy life again. No cell service

Very nice Park, located 20 km north of Revelstoke on Revelstoke Lake. The lake is a Hydro Electric Reservoir. During our 10 day visit in July ghe lake level fluctuated up with 3 days of hot temperatures and a late freshette. There is no cellular service within 15 kms, no fuel, and no electricity. Yes, no internet which makes this Park a no screen time camping experience. Get to know your kids, your spouse, your companion. The lake is excellent for small watercraft, paddlboards, kayaking, canoeing. Hiking is limited in the Park with only one trail which is 9.5 km vertical gain moderate and shared with mountain biking. There is a boat launch with concrete pad and floating dock. Off leash dog beach and family picnic beach area with kids playground on the beach. Hot showers, wash rooms and outdoor wash station for dishes. 75 campsites, 22 non-reservable first come first serve sites. Reservations recommended.

Amazing campground that is somewhat remote. Newish playground next to the beach so you get the best of both worlds. Amazing views, lake and forrest. We camped her once and did 2 day trips with our kids when staying in a Revy. It’s like 10min north of Revy.

There is no park office but there is a self serve kiosk at the entrance. If you have a reservation, one just continues to your site. A clerk does rounds in the evening to confirm your details. There is not much of a buffer between sites but distancing was good. The park was clean and well groomed. We did not use the free showers or flush toilets but they were very clean. There are also vault toilets throughout the park that were also very clean and odor free. Cell service does not exist thus no internet or any OTA TV. Satellite would be difficult in most sites because of the trees. The Camp Host does have a sat phone in case of emergencies. We paid $28.00 per night and feel we received fair value. We would return if in the area. There is dispersed camping up the road but many sites were small and down rough roads.

Last year we came up for a day trip because they have a dog friendly beach area. We drove through the campgrounds and they looked nice and there are some lake front spots that are amazing. This year we went back, got ourselves a campsite and really enjoyed the park. There is the dog friendly beach that we didn't even use this year as we just walked down to the lake under our campsite. Next to Martha creek, at the other end of the campsite the is a small pool of water before it goes in the lake and our dog had a great time in there. It's very easy to detach because there is no cell service. The park also has some new shower facilities, and plenty of wash water reservoirs.
