Kikomun Creek Provincial Park

Kikomun Creek Provincial Park is a popular well-maintained BC Park alongside Lake Koocanusa. It provides 168 camping sites for tents and RV's within 3 unique areas, either next to the shores of Lake Koocanusa or adjacent to Surveyors Lake.

Lake Koocanusa is popular for motorized boating and house boating and Surveyors Lake is non-motorized, both are great for swimming. Located in a dry sunny area of the province, this Park preserves an example of Interior Douglas fir and Ponderosa pine forest and grassland habitat. Paved roads within this family-oriented park are conducive to biking.

The map of the Park (see Related Documents to the right) details the location of the lake and three separate camping areas.
