At the confluence of the North and South Thompson rivers, Kamloops is a popular destination among cabin campers looking for quick access to outdoor recreation—especially paddle boarding, kayaking, and fishing. The Kamloops area is a fantastic choice for those in search of a cabin getaway, and while most of the lodging options right in Kamloops proper tend to be of the hotel variety, you won't need to drive far to find a cabin rental to call home for a spell. You'll find a good selection of cabins and vacation rentals in and around Salmon Arm, just up the Trans-Canada Highway toward Revelstoke, plus quite a few options southwest of Kamloops in the Merritt area. Area cabins range from rustic tiny homes with hot showers to family chalets with wood-burning stoves and hot tubs. Kamloops also makes a good base from which to visit the Thompson Valley wine country or some of the region’s numerous hot springs.
