A lakeside provincial park south of Kamloops with a quiet, family-oriented campground, flush toilets, a swimming area and trails. Sites are rocky for tents and there are no showers.
Lac Le Jeune Provincial Park sits on a small lake just off the Coquihalla, south of Kamloops. Visitors describe a peaceful setting despite the highway being close, with sunrise walks by the lake, plenty of picnic tables along the water and a sheltered picnic area.
The flush toilets throughout the campground surprise many first-timers. Reviewers find the grounds clean and campers respectful, and one family was pleased by how calm the atmosphere stayed. There are no showers, and one visitor in mid-June had to boil water while pipes were being repaired.
It's a good family spot, with swimming, kayaking, a playground and a network of trails around the park. One visitor thought the lake looked full of fish. It also works as a lunch stop on the way through, though outside the season the flush toilets may be locked, leaving only pit toilets.
Tenters should be ready for rocky, gravelly pads that make pegs hard to drive; bring a thick mat. Check site size if you're sharing with friends. One family found the beach covered in goose droppings, and the metal playground slides get hot. It can be windy, so pack for weather.
