About this site

Source

Under a mature spruce canopy about 5.5 km off the main road, Teapot Lake is a small, quiet site in the Quesnel area. A canoe or a car-top boat gets you onto the water, and the fishing is the reason most people make the turn.

Two camps fit comfortably here, first come, first served, with gravel access the whole way in.

Supplies are a fair distance off. Strathnaver is about 35 km away and the nearest fuel about 36 km, so set out fuelled and provisioned. Aba Lake is about 4 km down the road if you want a second lake to try.
