Campgrounds near Summerland, BC
Summerland sits on the west shore of Okanagan Lake in British Columbia's southern interior, roughly 16 km north of Penticton and 45 km south of Kelowna. The area combines lake access, semi-arid hills, orchards, and vineyards, and it draws steady RV traffic from spring through fall.
Camping options near town range from municipal and private RV parks in Summerland itself to BC Parks sites along the lake. Peach Orchard Campground is a municipally owned facility on Peach Orchard Road, within walking distance of beaches, a spray park, and a dog beach, with a mix of powered, water-only, and unserviced sites. Okanagan Lake Provincial Park lies a short drive north of Summerland on Highway 97 and splits into two campgrounds, North and South, both with lake frontage. Private options such as Wright's Beach Camp and South Beach Gardens Tent and RV Park sit a short drive south around Skaha Lake near Penticton, and Wildhorse Mountain Ranch BandB offers a smaller, ranch-style stay in the hills above the valley.
Highway 97 links all of these campgrounds, making it straightforward to base out of Summerland and day-trip through the Okanagan.
Things to do around Summerland
The lake is the main draw. Okanagan Lake supports swimming, boating, paddling, waterskiing, windsurfing, and fishing, and the South Campground at Okanagan Lake Provincial Park has a concrete boat launch and marked swim areas. Beaches within Summerland are within walking distance of Peach Orchard Campground.
On land, the Kettle Valley Rail Trail crosses the area and is popular for cycling and walking, with trestles and tunnels reachable by day trip. Giant's Head Mountain Park offers a short hike with valley views, and the surrounding benches hold numerous wineries, cideries, and fruit stands.
Families with kids can also visit the Kettle Valley Steam Railway and use the playgrounds, pickleball courts, and dog beach near Peach Orchard Campground. Note that the grassy hillsides around Okanagan Lake Provincial Park are rattlesnake habitat, so wear closed footwear on trails.

Peak season runs from late May through early September, when weather is hot and dry and every lakefront campground is close to full. Statutory long weekends such as Victoria Day, Canada Day, BC Day, and Labour Day fill first.
Shoulder seasons are the smartest windows for RV travellers. Okanagan Lake Provincial Park's South Campground typically opens in late March and stays open until mid-October, while the North Campground runs roughly mid-May to mid-September. Peach Orchard Campground operates through the warm-weather season, and Wright's Beach Camp runs a longer seasonal calendar spanning spring through fall. Spring brings blossoms on the benches and cooler nights; September and early October offer warm days, harvest activity in the vineyards, and lighter crowds.
Winter camping options are limited in the Summerland area, and most provincial and municipal sites are closed or on reduced services from late fall through early spring. Fire restrictions are common in mid to late summer, so check current bans before arrival.

Definitely one od the easiest RV rentals we've had so far. Bjorn was very lenient and supportive during our rental. The RV itself was our favourite of any of our rentals. Will absolutely be renting through Bjorn again!

How to book campgrounds near Summerland
Okanagan Lake Provincial Park uses the BC Parks reservation system. For the 2026 season, BC Parks moved to a three-month rolling booking window, so arrival dates open for reservation exactly three months out on a daily basis. South Campground is fully reservable during its main season, with a short first-come, first-served period at opening; North Campground is fully reservable through its shorter May-to-September window.
Peach Orchard Campground is booked directly through the municipal operator rather than the BC Parks portal. Private parks such as Wright's Beach Camp, South Beach Gardens Tent and RV Park, and Wildhorse Mountain Ranch BandB take reservations directly through their own offices or websites.
For summer weekends and long weekends, book as soon as your dates open. At BC Parks, any non-reserved sites are released to the waitlist at 11 a.m.
What to expect on-site
Sites vary widely. Peach Orchard Campground has 121 grassy, shaded sites near Eneas Creek, with 72 power-and-water sites and 49 water-only sites, coin-operated showers, laundry, and a small convenience store. There is no sewer at the sites, but a sani-dump is available about 3 km south and a weekly pump-out runs on Wednesdays starting in July. Only propane fires are permitted.
At Okanagan Lake Provincial Park, the South Campground is directly on the lakeshore with smaller, closer sites, while the North Campground sits on a hillside above the lake with terraced sites. Both have showers, flush toilets, and drinking water; the beach is pebbly rather than sandy, and there are no lifeguards. Neither campground has electrical hookups.
Private parks like Wright's Beach Camp offer serviced sites and direct beach access on Skaha Lake. Cell coverage is generally good throughout the valley.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Summerland, BC
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Summerland, BC?
RV rental in Summerland is more affordable than you might think for the heart of Okanagan wine country. Motorhomes near Summerland typically average around $200 to $275 CAD per night, while towable trailers run closer to $120 to $175 CAD per night, and many hosts offer weekly or monthly discounts. For a cheap RV rental in Summerland, target the shoulder seasons (late April to mid June, or September to mid October) when nightly rates drop and Bottleneck Drive wineries are still in full swing. Pro tip: bundling a midweek booking with a longer stay almost always unlocks the best per-night price, and you will still catch the famous Trout Creek Trestle views without summer crowd pricing.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Summerland%2C%20British%20ColumbiaDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Summerland, BC?
Good news: a regular Class 5 BC driver's licence (or the equivalent from your home province, state, or country) is all you need to rent an RV in Summerland. No commercial licence, air brake endorsement, or RV-specific certification is required for the Class B campervans, Class C motorhomes, and travel trailers listed on RVezy. You'll need to be 25 or older, and ID verification happens directly through the platform when you book. Visiting from overseas? Pick up an International Driving Permit from your home auto club before flying into Kelowna International Airport (about 45 minutes north) and you're set to roll down Highway 97 toward Summerland.
icbc.com/driver-licensing/visit-move-bc/Pages/default.aspxWhat protection and roadside assistance is included with my Summerland RV rental?
Every RV rental in Summerland booked through RVezy comes with a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance built into the booking, so you are never stranded on Highway 97 or a backroad near Giant's Head Mountain. The protection plan covers eligible damage to the RV and gives renters real financial peace of mind. During checkout you choose the level of coverage that fits your trip, whether that is a weekend wine tour along Bottleneck Drive or a two-week Okanagan RV trip. If a tire goes flat on the way to Sun-Oka Beach, one phone call to RVezy roadside dispatches help. That is the kind of backup that turns first-time renters into repeat travellers.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat is the cancellation policy if my Summerland trip plans change?
Booking is low-risk: RVezy sets the cancellation policy (not individual hosts), so the same clear rules apply to every Summerland RV rental on the platform. Refund eligibility depends on how far in advance of your trip you cancel, with full details outlined in the RVezy Help Center. If a host cancels on you, RVezy refunds your booking or helps you find a replacement RV. Pro tip: book early to secure peak July and August Okanagan dates, and review the cancellation policy in the Help Center before you confirm so you know exactly where you stand if plans shift.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Summerland RV trip?
Absolutely, and Summerland is a fantastic dog-friendly destination. Many RVezy hosts list pet-friendly RV rental in Summerland, so just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter when searching, and message the host directly from the listing if you have a larger breed or multiple pets. Your pup will love off-leash time at Peach Orchard Park, walks along the Kettle Valley Rail Trail, and dipping paws at the dog-friendly section of Powell Beach. Sun-Oka Provincial Park beach restricts dogs in summer, but the adjacent trails are fair game. Pro tip: pack a collapsible water bowl, July afternoons in the valley regularly hit 30 to 32 C and the pavement gets hot.
summerland.ca/parks-recreation/parks-trailsCan the RV be delivered to my campground or vacation rental in Summerland?
Yes, RV delivery in Summerland is one of the easiest ways to skip the learning curve. Many hosts will drive the motorhome or trailer right to your campsite at Summerland Campground & RV Park, Peach Orchard Campground, or even a friend's driveway, then level it, hook up power and water, and walk you through every system before handing over the keys. Use the Delivery filter to see hosts who offer this, and confirm the fee (usually based on distance and RV type) through the listing. Pro tip: delivery is especially popular for fifth wheels and larger Class A motorhomes, since you skip towing on Highway 97 entirely and start your trip with a glass of Okanagan rosé instead.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Summerland%2C%20British%20ColumbiaHow far can I drive from Summerland on a typical RV trip?
Summerland's central Okanagan location makes it a launch pad for some incredible short drives. Popular RV road trips from Summerland include Penticton (about 20 minutes south on Highway 97), Kelowna (about 45 minutes north), Osoyoos and the South Okanagan wine country (about 1 hour south), Manning Provincial Park (around 2.5 hours west on Highway 3), and Vancouver (about 4.5 to 5 hours via the Coquihalla). Mileage policies vary by host, with daily allowances typically between 100 and 200 km and some listings offering RV rental with unlimited mileage for longer journeys. Pro tip: if you are planning a bigger loop like Summerland to Revelstoke and back (about 6 hours of driving round trip), filter for unlimited-mileage rentals up front to keep budgeting simple.
drivebc.ca/Where are the best campgrounds near Summerland, BC?
You have excellent options for RV camping in Summerland, all within a short drive of Okanagan Lake. Top picks include Summerland Campground & RV Park on North Lakeshore Drive (sandy beach, heated pool, full hookups, open mid-April to mid-October), Peach Orchard Campground (walkable to downtown), Sun-Oka Beach Provincial Park for day use plus nearby Banbury Green and Okanagan Lake Provincial Park (North and South) for serviced provincial sites, and Todd's RV and Camping just up the road in Peachland. For wine-country atmosphere, Back Forty Vineyards offers vineyard RV sites a short drive away. Pro tip: lakefront sites at Okanagan Lake Provincial Park book up the moment the BC Parks reservation window opens, three months ahead of arrival.
bcparks.ca/okanagan-lake-park/When is the best time of year for an RV trip to Summerland?
Summerland lives up to its name with around 2,000+ hours of sunshine and roughly 300 sunny days a year, so the season is longer than most of Canada. The sweet spot for RV camping in Summerland is late May through late September, when daytime highs sit between 22 and 32 C and Okanagan Lake is warm enough to swim. July and August are peak (and busiest at wineries and beaches), while June and September offer the same blue skies with smaller crowds and lower rental rates. Spring brings orchard blossoms in April, and fall harvest in October is gorgeous along Bottleneck Drive. Pro tip: book mid-September for the perfect mix of warm water, ripe grapes, and quieter campgrounds.
climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_normals/I'm a first-time RV renter. Will I be able to handle a Summerland trip?
You've got this, and Summerland is one of the friendliest places in BC to learn. Every RVezy host provides a hands-on orientation at pickup, walking you through driving, levelling, propane, water, waste, and electrical systems before you head out. First time renting an RV? Stick to a Class B campervan or a smaller Class C (under 25 feet) for easy maneuvering on Highway 97 and narrower wine-country roads like those along Bottleneck Drive. You can message the host through RVezy before booking with any question, big or small. Pro tip: choose a host who offers delivery and setup for your first trip, you will skip the driving stress and start your Okanagan adventure already parked at the beach.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat happens if something goes wrong with the RV during my trip?
You are covered around the clock. Every Summerland RV rental booked on RVezy includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, so a flat tire on Highway 97, a dead battery at Sun-Oka Beach, or a lockout in the Summerland Campground parking lot is just a phone call away. For mechanical questions, your host is your first contact and most respond within minutes (they know their RV best). RVezy customer support is also reachable before, during, and after your trip through the Help Center. Pro tip: save the host's number and the RVezy roadside line offline, cell coverage is solid in town but can dip on backroads toward Apex Mountain.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Summerland RV rental across the US border or to other provinces?
Cross-border road trips to Washington State are often possible, since Osoyoos and the Oroville, WA crossing are only about 1 hour 15 minutes south of Summerland. You'll need to confirm with your host before booking, because not every owner allows their RV into the US (it depends on their insurance). Travel to Mexico is not permitted on any RVezy rental. Interprovincial travel into Alberta (think Banff or Jasper) is generally allowed, again with host approval. Just message the host through the listing page with your route and they'll confirm. Pro tip: bring your passport, vehicle registration, and host-signed cross-border permission letter for a smooth crossing at the Osoyoos border.
cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/menu-eng.htmlWhat should I budget for fuel on a Summerland RV trip?
Fuel is one of the bigger trip costs in BC, so a quick budget plan keeps surprises away. Expect a Class B campervan to get roughly 18 to 22 mpg (around 11 to 13 L/100 km), a Class C motorhome 10 to 14 mpg (17 to 22 L/100 km), and a truck-plus-trailer setup somewhere in between depending on the rig. Gas in Summerland and nearby Penticton typically runs higher than the Canadian average, so fill up before heading into smaller communities like Naramata or Keremeos where prices climb further. Pro tip: the Costco in West Kelowna (35 minutes north) has the area's most reliable cheap fuel, and topping up there before a wine-country weekend can save 10 to 15 cents per litre.
www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/industry/natural-gas-oil/petroleum-pricesHow far in advance should I book a campground near Summerland?
For peak summer weekends (late June through Labour Day), book as soon as the BC Parks reservation window opens, which in 2026 is a three-month rolling window through camping.bcparks.ca. Sites at Okanagan Lake Provincial Park and Sun-Oka day-use fill within minutes of release. Private parks like Summerland Campground & RV Park and Peach Orchard Campground accept bookings directly through their own websites and tend to fill 2 to 4 months ahead for July/August. Shoulder season (May, September, October) is much more relaxed: a 2 to 3 week lead time is usually plenty. Pro tip: set a calendar reminder for the day three months before your target arrival date and book at 7 a.m. PT when new dates release.
bcparks.ca/reservations/frontcountry-camping/What are local driving conditions like around Summerland?
Driving around Summerland is genuinely pleasant. Highway 97 is a well-maintained four-lane corridor through town, and most wine-country side roads (including Bottleneck Drive) are paved and RV-friendly. The two things to know: the descent into Peachland and the climb up to Summerland from Trout Creek have steep grades, so use lower gears rather than riding the brakes, and Highway 97 traffic backs up Friday afternoons in summer between Kelowna and Penticton. Winter drivers should check DriveBC for conditions on the Coquihalla (Highway 5) and Highway 3 over Allison Pass before heading to or from Vancouver. Pro tip: avoid driving wine country roads at dusk in fall, deer crossings spike from late September through November.
drivebc.ca/What amenities can I expect at Summerland campgrounds?
Local campgrounds are well-equipped for a comfortable Summerland RV trip. Summerland Campground & RV Park offers 111 full-hookup sites (water, sewer, 15/30 amp), showers, laundry, a heated outdoor pool, and a small store. Peach Orchard Campground has serviced sites within walking distance of downtown. Provincial parks like Okanagan Lake (South and North) provide flush toilets, drinking water, and a sani-dump but no in-site hookups, so plan to use your onboard tanks. Public dump stations are available at Summerland Campground & RV Park and at the Penticton Public Dump Station off Power Street. Pro tip: fill your fresh water tank in town before heading to any provincial park site, taps inside the campground can be a long walk from your spot.
bcparks.ca/okanagan-lake-park/What features and equipment come standard in Summerland RV rentals?
Most RVs listed for rent in Summerland come fully road-ready: real beds (queen, bunks, or convertible dinette depending on the floorplan), a kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, and cookware, a bathroom with shower and toilet, air conditioning (essential in July), a furnace for cool fall nights, and seatbelts for all travelling passengers. Many also include a generator, awnings, and starter kits with linens and propane. Campervan rental in Summerland tends to be more minimalist but still includes a kitchenette and bed. Wi-Fi is rarely built in, but many hosts mention hotspot options in their listings. Pro tip: check the listing's amenity list and message the host to confirm specifics like bike racks or paddleboard mounts for Okanagan Lake adventures.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Summerland%2C%20British%20ColumbiaWhat add-ons and options can I get with my Summerland RV rental?
Hosts in Summerland commonly offer a range of useful add-ons: delivery and setup (priced by distance), generator use, bedding and kitchen kits, bike or kayak racks, propane top-ups, late returns, and sometimes pre-stocked groceries. Pickup and drop-off times are set by the host and listed clearly on the booking page, with many allowing flexibility if you message ahead. Daily mileage policies typically range from 100 to 200 km, and some Okanagan hosts offer unlimited mileage on weekly bookings. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm exact add-on pricing and ask whether they include extras like cooler bags or a Bottleneck Drive map for wine-country trips.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Summerland%2C%20British%20ColumbiaHow does the security deposit and payment work?
Payment is simple and secure: you pay the full rental amount through RVezy at booking using a credit card, never directly to the host in cash. A security deposit is held as a temporary authorization on your card before pickup (the amount is shown on each listing) and is released after the trip ends, assuming the RV is returned in the same condition. To avoid issues, do a walkthrough with your host at both pickup and return, take date-stamped photos of the interior, exterior, and odometer, and report anything unusual right away through the RVezy app. Pro tip: review the listing's cleaning and dumping requirements before drop-off, returning the RV with the holding tanks dumped and the fuel tank topped up is the easiest way to get your full deposit back quickly.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I rent an RV in Summerland during winter, and what should I know about cold-weather camping?
Yes, winter RV rental in Summerland is available, and the Okanagan's relatively mild winters (typical January daytime highs near 0 C and overnight lows around -5 to -8 C) make it one of the more comfortable cold-season RV regions in Canada. Look for listings labelled as four-season or winter-ready, with heated holding tanks, enclosed underbellies, and a working furnace. Many private RV parks like Summerland Campground close mid-October, so winter campers often book full-hookup sites in Penticton or nearby that stay open year-round. Pro tip: pair a winter Summerland RV trip with skiing at Apex Mountain Resort (about an hour from Summerland via Penticton), heated water hoses and shore power make even January camping comfortable.
