- Several campsites have direct beach access, perfect for enjoying the lake's beauty and recreational opportunities such as swimming or kayaking.
- Most campsites are spacious enough to accommodate two vehicles, making it convenient for family and group trips.
- While it's a fantastic spot for camping, those with large trailers may find maneuvering challenging due to limited turnaround space.

Great campsite right on Lake Okanagan. The campsite host Rene was lovely too! The whole site is first come first serve which is handy during peak season when everything is fully booked. Most of the campsites have their own beach access and some are large enough for two vehicles. We'll be back again for sure.

Finally happy to camp at Evely again!!!! If you camped here in the past 3 years you know how horrible the previous camp hosts were. Renee the new camp host is amazing!! The entire campground was so well kept, including the pit toilets. She’s very informative and makes sure people are following the rules, which is such a nice change from the previous park hosts!

It truly is lovely but for anyone on disability (PWD or CppD) it doesn't honour the Social Services exemption the same as the BC Parks campgrounds. We couldn't afford the $200+ they charged us (at regular BC Parks they charge nothing except the booking fee, including the extra vehicle needed).

Great friendly place. Not so good for large trailers ( 32foot). Limited turn around space. But other than that. Super nice.
