The sites are very tight, if you have a pull out or an awning you have to choose which one you would like to use (if your site has enough room). The washrooms were clean; staff was friendly, pay showers and laundry. No pull thrus, mostly grassy sites (a little sparse in spots). Some road noise during the day but quiet at night. Small playground for kids and a small heated pool. Very scenic location. Fresh baking if pre-ordered the night before $. We paid $30 per night. The campsite charged our credit card for two nights six weeks before we arrived. We had reserved for three nights. Seems a little steep and definitely an overly early charge. Probably will not stay there again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Pay shower was cold, probably the worst shower I ever had to pay money for.(actually has a note to warn of this) Very tight, even with lots of reversing experience. Couldn't put out awning, had to place our lawn chairs around neighbors sewer connection - no room. No Camp Fires. Grass not kept up - dried up and tracks everywhere. Wasps were a big problem and the picnic tables sucked. The pool was great for the kids. We meant to stop in merely to re-charge and get cleaned up - but were very disappointed considering the price we were charged. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very tight fit and entertaining to watch others try to get set up. Friendly people who helped us with directions, etc. Quite a ways from town (3 miles) and no good way to get there except by car. Would prefer to stay in town near stores, etc. this little town is very fun, with a tubing area on the canal. Good restaurants and wonderful city park on the lake. Beautiful setting. Kids would like this area/town. Lots to do. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice friendly and clean park. The park owners are very helpful in suggesting things to do in the area. Helped us back into site. Washrooms were spotless. Would recommend this park to anyone. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

We have been camping at the Oxbow resort for the month of July for the last 7 hrs. We have friends that recommended the site to us. Our first experience at the camp ground was with the owner guiding me into the camping stall; it was a pleasant experience as we have a big unit. The owners run a clean well organized resort, the wash room and laundry facilities are modern and well kept,. The Skaha Beach with boat and Seadoo rentals is just across the road. We have gotten to know and have developed relationships with many of the regulars as we seem to keep coming back each year. We would recommend this park to anyone looking to enjoy the beautiful weather and hospitality in Penticton. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campground appeared to be clean and well kept, but we had a very unfortunate experience with the owner. We had arrived late in the evening and only needed a place to spend the night. The owner appeared to be impatient from the beginning since we had interrupted something he was doing, but he escorted us to our site, where, due to a misunderstanding, we backed the trailer dead center in the tight spot rather than to one side where he wanted it. At this he began to lose his temper and become verbally abusive. This escalated to actual threats with a waved stick when we accidentally ran one of the tow vehicle tires a couple of inches over the edge of the grass as we pulled out to correct it. He started shouting that we were now "damaging property" (the grass), and ranting about how expensive it was to irrigate and maintain. We were so shocked by this irrational outburst that we decided we needed to ask for a refund and leave. He followed us all the way to the office verbally threatening to "rip us out of our friggin' car" if we did not honor the camp speed limit. We were very upset and shaken by this encounter, but since we had not done any permanent damage nor verbally provoked this behavior, we felt that there had to be other issues involved for someone in a service industry to behave like this toward a customer. My husband is very skilled at backing a trailer; we have stayed in many RV parks, but we have never had any experience like this. We hope we never do again! Unfortunately, we cannot recommend this campground. We did not stay at this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Small, tidy park. Well-maintained. Friendly and helpful owner took us to the site and helped us park. Off-season rate. Tight in and out for a big rig. Sites are a also bit tight for RVs with slides. Trees made satellite reception a bit of a challenge. Located next to a couple of run-down motels, one with it's own trailer park. Walkway along the river to an activities and beach area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very lovely park to stay in. Sites are tight but the owner helps you park your rig and helps you leave as well. Very well maintained beautiful spot within walking distance of the walking trail along the water inlet. Restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Would definitely stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very kid friendly. Don't expect peace and quiet during the day. Rules are enforced and there are a number. Follow the "common sense" rules and you will have a great stay. Wonderful "kid friendly" beach/lake a short walk across the road. Shade trees are abundant. The RV section is tightly packed. Expect to get to know your neighbor. Reservations are a must. Check the URL for rules and expectations. Plenty of activities for all ages near by. The bathrooms are a bit dated but clean. The roads and pads are NOT paved. Small bit of grass and gravel in the A section. The rest appeared to be all grass. We would stay here again (only when entertaining grand kids). We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park is still functioning (see comments in other reviews) and the only thing open in Penticton in the winter. Some permanents in back of the park. Has friendly staff. Just the basics: old campground. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Apparently this RV Park is being run by a property management firm for the bank. Its previous owners went bankrupt. The water slides were torn down and all that remains is a mountain of dirt and weeds. There are better campgrounds than this one; Please take the time to look for a better one. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

What was a nice RV park, has now gone to seed. Former manager quit and the water slide has been torn down. Due to lack of RV sites in the Penticton area, park is crowded with full timers. Phone calls checking for availability are ignored and sites very small. Rate increases in July and August are over the top. Stay elsewhere if possible. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Be careful about this campground. The management/owners/staff are known to be quite unfriendly and unwelcoming to prospective guests. If you are not a returning guest, you should be prepared to be turned away if the staff do not like your appearance. Be aware of the tight spots for RV's, and the lack of courtesy when you need help to maneuver your rig. We camped here in a Tent.

We were there off season and not sure if the managers were the usual managers or substitutes. The park is beautifully situated on the beach on a lake, but the sites are the narrowest sites we have ever seen. We were camping with another couple and could not fit our 29 foot motorhome in the site next to their 5th wheel as it was so narrow. I did one load of laundry there, but almost did not because the laundry room was filthy. I did not use the ladies locker/toilet/shower room, but my husband used the men's and complained that it was also extremely dirty. The managers had two pit bulls which were allowed to roam free. One pit bull attacked the dog of our friends grabbing it by the neck. Our friend kicked the pit bull until it released his dog. The manager apologized, but never chained up his dogs. The campground claims to be family and pet friendly, but we think it is dangerous. We saw very small children playing in the same area where the pit bulls had been roaming free, but not at the same time. We camped here in a Motorhome.

So much like a trailer park, the sites are glued together so much so that when you catch a breeze, the smell of sewer wafts up from your neighbour's site as you eat at your picnic table. You can hear your neighbour's cough it's that tight. Shaded sites available only in some areas. The sprinkler system is LOUD! Beach is nice, sand is clean. Nice large grassy area for families to play. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
