About Deadman Lake
ALL DOGS MUST BE ON A LEASH AT ALL TIMES (for all Kamloops Recreation Sites).
No reserving or holding of campsites, all sites are first come, first serve.
Deadman Lake is an oasis in the middle of the surrounding arid landscape. This easily accessible area is such an escape from every day life that even radio transmitters do not work. A refreshing and often cool breeze seems to funnel down this narrow valley. The lake is idea for swimming, kayaking, and fishing accessible via cartop boat launch areas. This recreation site is bordered by two private residences on either side so please be considerate when on the site.
