Kamloops Island is a small, shady campground at the mouth of the Kettle River. The main hub of campsites is tucked into the vegetation up top and can fit tents and RVs. The other campsites are a cluster of walk-in tent sites spread out in a grove of pines. Many campsites offer views of the river/ lake and surrounding landscape. There is a courtesy dock, but no boat launch. Kamloops Island is a popular campground for visitors just camping or using small watercraft.
