Big Country Campground & RV Park
A small, well-kept campground and RV park just off Highway 97 near Lac La Hache, with a heated pool, clean washrooms, big-rig sites and a friendly owner; expect some highway noise.
What visitors say
Big Country Campground & RV Park sits right off Highway 97 in the Cariboo, and most reviewers found it while looking for a night's stop. Many ended up wishing they'd stayed longer. Sites are described as large, clean and shaded, and the place has a small, rustic feel despite some modern updates.
The owner gets steady praise for being welcoming, fair and good for a chat at check-in. If he's out, one guest noted he leaves a sign on the office door asking you to pick a site. The washrooms and showers are roomy and very clean, with showers included, and there's laundry, a dishwashing sink and a well-stocked little shop. One RVer reported fast fibre internet and 50-amp full-hookup sites, and got a 43-foot rig with a tow car through the grounds without trouble.
Families appreciate the heated pool and playground, and one owner opened the pool early so a child could swim before leaving. It's well suited to an overnight or short stay with kids, and one couple thought it ideal for a longer quiet stay without them.
The main trade-off is the highway. Several guests heard some road noise, and one felt it was too noisy for a long stay. Early in the season, the full-hookup and 50-amp section may not be open yet, and one reviewer said some larger sites are held for big rigs, so smaller setups may be directed elsewhere.
