Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
As you come around the corner there is a flat area right next to a roaring river, this area is close to the road but the sound of the river overrides any road noise. We did check out Fletcher falls for a boon dock but decided the road was to close for traffic, we did however have a delicious burger at Fletcher Fries opposite the pin for Fletcher falls, and then came back here and enjoyed the view and beautiful sound of a river. There is cell service but it is hit and miss.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.

Report Check-InNic spot as described, right off the highway but river noise drowns out cars . Multiple cars stopped to look in the early evening but we were alone for the night. Not perfectly level but good enough for our sprinter
Report Check-Inaccurate description in prior posts; a small graded area adjacent to short roadway bridge over a creek. good for overnight.
Report Check-InNice spot for 1N. Few people come to enjoy the creek/falls. You can be spotted from the road but I parked behind the shrubs for a little privacy.
Report Check-InNice spot next to a roaring river with no amenities. Bumpy gravel road leading to uneven parking lot. Shared the spot with two other set of travellers.
Report Check-InRight off the hwy, but the water drowned out any hwy noise. Shared the spot with two other sets of travelers. A bit of human waste around so be careful
Report Check-InIt’s a fine spot, but very visible from the highway. The river is beautiful and fast.
Report Check-InOvernight parking at Coffee Creek near Kootenay Lake. The place is not level and visible from Highway 31. Traffic noise is ok because the river washes out most of the noise. Ok for one night.
Report Check-InPerfect spot for a one night stay. Although close to the highway it is pretty quiet, the river drowns out most vehicle noises. There are some trails around as well if your looking for a bit more adventure. The river is pretty nice, couple spots look nice enough to chill in, as long as weather is permitting.
