Getting there
From Merritt travel southeast on highway 5A for 23km, then take Highway 97C towards Kelowna for another 26km. Exit the highway at the Elkhart Lake Interchange, proceed under the highway and turn left immediately onto the paved Paradise Lake Road. Travel along this road for approximately 5 kms passing by the recreation site for Elkhart Lake. Watch for the Bobs Lake directional sign. Turn right onto the Bobs Lake access road and travel a few hundred yards to the lake and campsites.
If you miss the turn-off to Bobs lake, a few kilometers later the paved road will change to a gravel FSR and you will pass by the entrances to Paradise and Island Lakes recreation sites. These entrances are on opposites sides of the FSR and are very visible.
