This past week we took a few days off and took the kids up to camp at Shuswap Lake Provincial Park, which is located in the Scotch Creek area of Northern Shuswap. It was the first time we have camped at this park, and it’s been years since I have visited the lake. The Park was well maintained with clean adequate washroom facilities, and all the spots were spacious with ample privacy.
The camping fees were reasonable at $32 a night. The Trip up was about 5 hours, we made a stop at exit 183 to visit the Othello Tunnels, however crews were doing some blasting and there was a 20 minute delay so we decided to continue onwards. We stopped at the rest top near the Coquihalla Summit, and then again in Merritt to pick up some items we had forgotten.
