Dutch's Campground

Dutch's is the campground you want when the plan is Kal Beach: a family-run park on Kalamalka Road in Coldstream, a five-minute walk from the sand and the impossibly turquoise water of Kalamalka Lake, with the Okanagan Rail Trail running past the gate for a flat ride to Vernon or south toward Kekuli Bay. It takes both tents and RVs, books online or by phone, and — unusually for the Okanagan — stays open all year, with winter camping by application from October to May for those who want Sovereign Lake's ski trails and SilverStar within a short drive. Expect a friendly, no-frills lakeside campground rather than a resort, and check the operator's site for current site details and rates before you arrive.
