A free, small BC Hydro campsite near Lillooet beside Cayoosh Creek and Seton Lake, liked for clear swimming water, mountain views and clean outhouses. It's basic, with a 14-day limit.
The Seton Lake campsite near Lillooet is run by BC Hydro and is free to use, which several reviewers point out with some delight. Cayoosh Creek runs alongside, mountains surround the site, and the clear, cold, blue water of Seton Lake is close by for swimming on hot days.
It's small, but spaces are a decent size. Outhouses were clean and stocked on recent visits, there are two water pumps and picnic tables, and dogs are welcome. The campground is beside the road, but one camper found the noise easy to live with. Stays are limited to 14 days.
It suits road-trippers and families passing through who want a simple night by the water. The closest place to buy food is a gas station about 3 km away, so stock up beforehand.
Facilities are basic, and one guest wished the grounds were better cleaned and landscaped. The campground closes for the off-season, with one spring visitor finding it not yet open in late April, though the day-use area was available.
