This scenic spot offers both motel rooms and RV sites, making it a convenient stop for travelers and nature lovers.

Skookumchuck is a small community situated at the junction of the Skookumchuck and Lussier Rivers along the Kootenay River. This region is nestled in the Rocky Mountain Trench and is known for its scenic beauty, with nearby parks such as Premier Lake and Columbia Lake offering plenty of outdoor activities, including fishing, hiking, and wildlife viewing.
The broader Skookumchuck area has a rich history dating back to the 1800s, with early Indigenous populations who hunted and fished in the area, followed by European explorers like David Thompson. Later, the discovery of gold on Skoo Kum Chuck Creek in 1864 brought more settlers, and by the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the area became a hub for homesteading, ranching, and mining.
Today, Skookumchuck serves as a gateway to outdoor adventure and offers a mix of campgrounds, motels, and recreational opportunities for visitors exploring the Kootenay Rockies.
Our campground and motel offer a variety of amenities, including laundry facilities, ice, and a concession stand. We aim to provide everything you need for a convenient and enjoyable stay.
