About this site

Source

The east site on Nicklen Lake is a fishing camp, plain and useful. The lake is medium sized and its level swings a fair bit, so the shoreline you find will not always look the same. A car top boat launch is the right scale for the place.

Six sites, first come, first served, user-maintained, with gravel access that is in good shape.

Lumby is about 13 km away and a Shell sits about 13 km out as well, so one stop covers food and fuel. Lilly Pad Lake is about 2 km from camp, and Vernon's 209 mountain bike trails are about 25 km out.
