Barriere Ridge Resort

2 sites · RVs1 acre · Clearwater, BC
Barriere Ridge Resort is a hidden gem. It is a private off-grid RV lot on the west side of East Barriere Lake, one of the warmest and cleanest lakes in BC. It is located off a Forest Service Road in the town of Barriere , which is only 45 minutes drive from Kamloops. Our RV Site is a large 1 acre lot fully serviced with water, electricity, and sewer and only 150 meters walk to the Lake! Unlike most RV site rentals where your neighbour is literally only steps away, your neighbour (if any) will be half an acre away! The lot is rectangular in shape, with the bottom half is levelled for RV use, and the upper half is a private forested area open for your exploration. The bottom space has water and electrical hookups only, while the top space includes water, electrical, and sewer hookups. *****AMENITIES***** - Water - Electricity - Private Sewer Hook-up - Use of private 4-man canoe, paddles, and life-jackets - Common boat trailer parking - Common beach access and picnic area *****RATES***** - 1 RV can accommodate 8 people, with extra fees for additional guests -The site can comfortably fit a second RV so great for a group stay. - $65-75 / night with minimum, depending on season, 5 nights stay for 1 RV (any length is fine) - Extra $12 / night for an additional RV. - Can accommodate max of 2 RVs only *****ABOUT EAST BARRIERE LAKE***** It is at 632 m in elevation one can enjoy the warm weather of the North Thompson. With surface temperatures reaching 27°C, the lake is perfect for swimming or any water sports. The lake is also up to 100 m deep, translating to excellent fishing during the summer. The lake has a surface area of 994 ha (2,456 acres) and is almost 15 km in length, which provides plenty of areas to remain uncrowded. *****RECREATION***** The Barriere Lakes (North, South, and East) hold some of the best trout fishing in this region. Trolling, fly fishing, and light spin casting for native Kamloops rainbow trout are all productive methods. The Lakes each personalize opportunities to enjoy paddling in calm waters, fishing, or drifting in a pontoon boat. Uncrowded East Barriere Lake is great for waterskiing, wakeboarding, and other watersports. Nearby, Dunn Lake is also long and deep, offering excellent fishing for rainbow trout, lake trout, bull trout, and Kokanee. There is good hunting for moose and deer from the property. *****DIRECTIONS***** Location: Russel Creek Forest Service Rd , Thompson-Nicola O, Canada 7540 Russel Creek Forest Service Road Drive Time to East Barriere Lake Kamloops 45 minutes Kelowna 2.5 hrs Vancouver 4 hrs Travel north or south to Barriere, BC via Highway 5.
