The campground is located 1 km off the highway along the paved access road. There are 87 vehicle accessible campsites in the park, including eight double sites. While there is no gatehouse, an information shelter and telephone are located at the entrance to the campground. If no staff are present, campers can self-register and put their deposit in the self-registration vault which is across from site 12. Campsite reservations are accepted and first-come, first-served sites are also available.

The sites are arranged in two loops and along the road in between the loops. Most of the sites are large with gravel pads and plenty of space for backing in. The sites are located in the beautiful, open Ponderosa pine/bunchgrass forest with the red-orange bark of the trees contrasting sharply with the bland grass. This forest type gives the campground an open, spacious feeling. The exception is sites 55-87, in the second loop. These are very private and found in thick Douglas fir with many shrubs separating the sites. The closest store is 5 km away in Rock Creek.

Check-in procedures:

• Guests with reservations: Check reservation board at campground entrance for pre-assigned site number.
• Guests without reservations: Check reservation board at campround entrance for list of sites available on a first come first served basis.

While campfires are allowed and campfire rings are provided at each campsite, we encourage visitors to conserve wood and protect the environment by minimizing the use of fire and using campstoves instead. Firewood can be purchased in the park or you may bring your own wood.Fees for firewood are set locally and may vary from park to park. Limited burning hours or campfire bans may be implemented. To preserve vegetation and ground cover, please don't gather firewood from the area around your campsite or elsewhere in the park (this is a ticketable offence under the Park Act). Dead wood is an important habitat element for many plants and animals and it adds organic matter to the soil.

There are no regularly scheduled interpretive programs at this park.

One of Canada's most historic and scenic railway routes runs through this park. The Kettle Valley Railway opened in 1916 and discontinued service in 1973 and the track was removed between the towns of Midway and Penticton in 1980. This track now part of the Trans Canada Trail, a shared-use recreation trail that will wind its way through every Province and Territory forming the longest trail of its kind in the world, spanning approximately 17, 898 kilometres. It will accommodate five core activities: walking, cycling, horseback riding, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling (where possible/desired). If you decide to walk parts of the historic Kettle Valley Railway, the bridge across the river is still intact, however, caution is advised at all times on and around the bridge. For your own safety and the preservation of the park, obey posted signs and keep to designated trails. Shortcutting trails destroys plant life and soil structure.

The adventure playground is quite popular in this park. A horseshoe pitch is also available.

Swimming in the river is available, as well as, tubing along the river currents. Always be cautious. There are no lifeguards on duty at provincial parks.
