About this site

Source

Heavy tree cover is the difference at North Star Lake. The sites sit in thick timber rather than out on open grass, which is worth something on a bright afternoon near Jaffray, and the fishing here draws a steady crowd.

There are 11 sites, first come, first served, at $15 a night, on gravel access. The launch suits canoes and car-top boats, and there is room at the sites for trailers and campers.

Jaffray is about 4 km off for gas and basics. The Silver Spring Lakes Trailhead is about 14 km away, and the Fernie Alpine Bike Park about 18 km.
