Shuswap Hot Spots to Discover
Approximately 28 km (17 mi) from Chase, Scotch Creek is home to Shuswap Lake Provincial Park, a popular spot for boaters, watersports enthusiasts, and beachgoers alike. Located on the north shore of the main arm of Shuswap Lake, the park has a 1 km (.6 mi) sand/pebble beach plus a large boat launch. There’s ample parking for your tow vehicle and trailer, and although overnighting is not allowed, marinas in the area offer moorage options. If you feel like stretching your legs or the kids need to burn off some energy, the park has a large grassy play area, an adventure playground, and a self-guided nature trail. Further exploring can be found on Copper Island and if you need supplies before or after your day here, services and shopping can be found in Scotch Creek.
