About this site

Source

Stella Bay is the end of the road, one site with a small sandy beach and a rough launch for a boat. Swimming off that sand is the reason to make the drive.

It is a single first come, first served site on gravel, user-maintained, and turnaround room is very tight once someone is parked in it. Large trailers and motorhomes will not fit, so bring a smaller rig or a tent.

Granite Bay is about 14 km away and the nearest fuel about 29 km, which makes filling up on the way in worth the stop. Lower Stella Lake is about 5 km off.
