"The
beautiful resort, just outside Lytton, is perched on
the Thompson River across from the grandiose White Canyon.
Kumsheen is like an oasis in one of the most beautiful
areas in Canada - and in summer, one of the driest and
hottest areas. I also love this place because of the
air. It's clean and dry, with a wonderful aroma of ponderosa
pines, western grasses and a hint of sage-brush."

The
Legendary Thompson River and Mighty Fraser River
The
Fraser River is the longest in BC and each of its 1400 kilometres
abounds in the province's history. Its huge rapids, including
world-famous Hell's Gate, have been celebrated and feared
since Simon Fraser's first descent in 1808.
The
Thompson River, the largest tributary of the Fraser, snakes
through hot desert-like terrain mixing calm, flat stretches
with huge, rolling waves. In the Devil's Gorge, the river
unleashes its fury in eighteen unforgettable rapids like the
Jaws of Death, Devil's Kitchen, and Witch's Cauldron.
Because
of its size, we can offer power rafts all season starting
May 1st and paddle rafts from July to the end of September.
"River
rafting with the folks at Kumsheen Rafting Resort is one
of the most exciting and affordable adventures available
in beautiful British Columbia today."

Canvas
Cabins
The
resort has quaint white canvas cabins, fully furnished with
antiques, historical memorabilia and two double beds (covered
in cosy duvets). A propane light illuminates the interior
with a warm romantic glow after dark. Linen & Towels provided.
Teepees
Simply
and tastefully furnished, our beautiful teepees create a distinctive
atmosphere enjoyed by First Nations Peoples for many millenniums.
Linen & Towels provided.
Campground
Friendly
and family-oriented, the campground reflects our resort's
amiable theme. A common campfire circle encourages the meeting
of new friends. Expect to be fascinated rather than frustrated
by the trains, as they are an integral part of our history.
The
Restaurant
À
la carte dining and pre-purchased meals are available in our
Cutting Board Restaurant from mid-June to mid-September. The
French doors open to an outdoor licensed patio where guests
enjoy the resort's stunning view of White Canyon's rugged
spires.
