Blue Lake Resort

We stayed from Sept 10-16, 2023. Had a great relaxing time. Lots of trails to explore when not fishing. Staff were very friendly and were working hard to get the resort back on its feet after their month long evacuation order. Very family oriented. 

We just got back from our first trip to Blue lake Resort. I was really concerned about the drive in after reading reviews but we had no issues dragging our 30’ trailer up. 
We have a toddler who loved the animals, beach and playground. We were amazed at how warm the water was for swimming. The beach was pretty busy but everyone was friendly. We were sad to see the no dogs on beach signs, however, we did notice that people still brought their dogs. We decided to abide by the rules but would definitely love a place to take our girl to cool off.
We loved the resort itself, and our site(43) was quite private. Staff were friendly and polite. Guests were also very friendly and it was really quiet at night which we appreciated having a little one. 
Overall, it was a great weekend and we’ve booked two more trips. We are now considering getting on the list for a full time spot.

This resort is a 10/10 for families of all ages 2yrs to 75 years old or even older.

The lake ,scenery, and staff are the best in the world.

I have many friends that visited Blue Lake with me and now it is their DESTINATION HOLIDAY SPOT.

The best way to see why, is by doing yourself a favour and staying at the resort.
HINT:
If available get a lakeside cabin and find out what heaven on earth feels like.

I have a place on Shuswap Lake but we rent a cabin at Blue Lake for a week every year to take our family holiday break. 
It is the best little resort on a lake with even better staff and helpers in BC, Hands Down !!

Office/Check in
It’s a beautiful office/general store - something that you’d find in a high end hotel. But so much better - they literally have everything you would ever need for an awesome camping experience. Forgot your tent? They got one. Forgot Benadryl for the kids - they got it. Now you’re probably thinking - “sure they got it - but they take advantage of you with the price!” Quite the opposite - the prices are more than reasonable. In some cases they were more affordable than in a store outside of a resort/hotel/campground. 
The staff are super friendly and helpful - they even deliver the firewood to your site, help you pick out rabbit, chicken and goat food for the petting zoo (Yes, they have a petting Zoo!) and have an amazing assortment of local meats, drinks, artwork and clothing.

Campsites
What you’d expect from any campsite really - except loads of options from creekside to lake side to just regular in the bush to a beautiful group site in a meadow.

Cabins
We rented Hummingbird and blew away our expectations, Every thing you’d need for a cozy time. The kitchen is fully stocked (just remember salt and pepper and olive oil) with really nice cooking pieces. A microwave to a toaster and a on top of the stove tea kettle. They even provide life jackets and a boat for you to use! Need another boat - they rent them there too.

Driving up
Like the other reviews say - Be careful and go slow. It’s a nice time to remember to relax and start your beautiful vacation at an amazing resort. 

Bonus Features
Teen Zone has a football and air hockey table. An amazing kids park next to a petting zoo. Three awesome hikes for all levels (Sasquatch is a fun one from the park to the office/store) to Look Out (which is an awesome view. Two floating docks, an awesome rope swing and a cool log you can try to walk out on.

The way we were treated, the work they put into this place - you can tell the ownership and management really care about the resort and the guest experience.

Place has become our place to go..now that we experienced the beauty and peace the cabins provide .The hot tub was so nice. The only complaint were the mattresses on the beds were very uncomfortable ..one of them had a lump in the middle .so new mattresses are greatly needed and will be appreciated.. great place to unwind.

Just got back from our first stay at Blue Lake Resort. We had a lake side RV site and it was perfect. We were enjoying our time so much that we extended for an extra night. Staff was friendly and helpful. The store had good supplies for forgotten items. It was new, clean, and VERY reasonably priced! All the camp grounds (both tent and RV) were well laid out, clean, private, and sized well. Our son loved the animals and playground. There was a lot to see and do. The lake was surprisingly warm. It was very peaceful and relaxing. It was an incredible experience and we can not wait to return!

We have visited Blue Lake Resort multiple times over the past few years. The owners and employees are always friendly and helpful, and the campground and cabins are all very well maintained. When COVID struck, they put very  strong policies in place to keep their guests and staff safe and the 3 times we visited in 2020 were a great escape.

The lake is beautiful and the scenery is breathtaking especially if you do the hike up to the lookout. We recommend Blue Lake Resort to all our friends. It's a great place for couples, families, pets, everyone.

We have been coming camping for a couple years now and loved it, for a spring break getaway close to home we decided to try out a deluxe cabin, creekside. It was wonderful! A great trip and the hot tub was such a treat. We now have an excuse to come even more! 
We also noticed the road seemed to be done more since last year. Yes its a "scary" road  but be cautious, its worth the trip up. Our kids are already begging for another spring trip and summer to come quickly so they can enjoy the lake! See you soon.

Revisited my childhood camping site now that I have kids and LOVED IT!

Safe, beautiful ambiance, updated buildings (kids loved little treats from the store!), many walking places, park, animals to watch & feed, firewood delivery, perfect RV dump station (gross but necessary right?!) and INCREDIBLY FRIENDLY staff and campers. Loved every person we were fortunate to meet.

We did a day trip before booking overnight and the weekend was very busy. We decide to start our vacay on a Sunday & enjoy over weekdays which were so quiet. We had a private dock but it was almost unnecessary as the beach was ours alone most of the time. I highly recommend walks in the absolutely beautiful meadow. 

I could go on and on, basically we’ll be back very soon.

Well needed COVID holiday. Ten years have passed since we revisited Blue Lake and I was happy to see the natural surroundings have not changed to a homogenized, manicured, park-like setting. The camp-sites and lodges were surrounded by brilliant green leafy trees leaving the feeling of being in a hidden secret with only your neighborhood campers in the loop. Bar none..  friendliest people you would ever want to meet.. from the staff to fellow campers. The clear, clean blue waters of its namesake are more beautiful in person with the best swimming experience anyone could ask for.
      We stayed in the Chipmunk cabin with 3 adults. It was not cheap though worth it with the private hot tub, patio, and large campfire area. The only drawbacks were the uncomfortable fold-out guest bed and the rough drive in and out of the resort We will, without doubt, be back soon.

No “blues” at Blue Lake

An amazing experience

Lakefront cabin 2 bedrooms

Excellent stay! Can't wait to return!

The water actually amazes me.  You could swim all day and it was only early May.  

The private docks are excellent.

Shout out to the staff!  They were prompt and friendly!  One staff was able to get me and my girlfriend a better spot that wasn’t full of mud after we had already booked and arrived and it made a night-day difference to our trip!! 

Lot of amenities or privacy for whoever is looking for either.

FANTASTIC!

We are regulars at Blue Lake Resort and love it!

Another great trip at Blue lake!

My girlfriend and I came to Blue Lake twice this summer. It's a decent place to pitch a tent and have a fire. Very friendly and accommodating staff are always available. Only reason I  gave it 4 stars is because they need to do something about the access road as it's in poor shape.

Ignore the "terrible" reviews as these were all written by rule breakers. I can confirm the one written in June 2020 about the "2yr memorial" is a load of crap. They were all wasted, being loud and obnoxious in the late hours of the night. Almost everyone at Blue Lake reported them, including us. They also forgot to include in their review, the fireworks they were lighting off in the middle of wildfire season off the peak.
