About the resort

We are a 14-acre lakefront property located 20 minutes from Kamloops and approx. 4 hours from Vancouver. Our family-run resort is perfect for relaxing, nature viewing, fishing, family holidays, or small group gatherings. Owned & operated by the Hamill Family (John, Kelly, Ty, & Kirsten) who purchased the resort in May 2022. Your hosts all grew up in Kamloops- so if you need any advice on local activities please ask!

Under our new ownership, we encourage a clean, sae, and relaxing atmosphere. We have made many upgrades since the purchase with more on the way, and are excited to continue to maintain the natural beauty of the resort for all of our guests to enjoy.

Pinantan Lake is a wonderful for swimming, kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding and fishing! The lake is electric motor only and is stocked each year with rainbow trout that provides a great opportunity for both experienced and beginner fishers. There are many other lakes in the area for those wanting a variety. Nearby hiking, biking and walking trails, as well as Harper Ski Mountain & Paul Lake Provincial park, are bound to keep everyone in the family happy.

Pinantan Lake General Store is locally owned and is a short walk from the resort, where you can buy almost everything you need for your stay, including gifts to take back home! Our office store only sells the very basics, PLR merchandise, such as sweaters, stickers, and hats. We also have DVDS & games to borrow!

Cabins are booked up well in advance with weekly reservations encouraged. Shorter stays may be booked depending on availability.

WHO ARE WE?

Kirsten will be your host year-round. She is usually found around the office, cleaning, or tending to the animals etc... Kirsten found a love for traveling after high school, where she worked in the hospitality industry in many parts of the world for 7+ years.

Ty & Sol will be your co-hosts during summer months.

Ty works hard at keeping the grounds of the resort beautiful. He is quite the handyman and can be found on the property tool belt in tow, using his talents of construction. You might also talk to Ty when booking or checking in. Ty’s background is in hospitality, most recently running a hostel on Ometepe Island in Nicaragua - this is where Ty met Sol. Sol is Ty’s partner from England, they will be here all summer and off traveling during the winter.

Kelly & John live in the main house at the resort and are around to help with whatever needs doing. They are semi-retired after owning a successful retail flooring business in Kamloops, BC for 30+ years. They have always enjoyed traveling and often take off in their motorhome to enjoy our wonderful country. They have stayed in countless RV parks along the way and have always dreamed of owning their own resort, just a bonus that their children have partnered with them!

Bowie is Kirsten’s dog. You will most likely him following her everywhere she goes or napping in the office (he works very hard!).

Wilson (Willy) is our resident mouse-catcher extraordinaire, the black cat. He excels at his job, which is why you won’t notice much, if any, rodent activity at the resort, unless he scurries by you with one in his mouth! Willy loves attention and people, please avoid feeding him and letting him into your cabin or trailer, as we get worried if he is missing! He’s not afraid of dogs, so please don’t let your dogs get after him!

Kirsten’s horses are also on the property. Birdie (Black) and Calvin (Brown) enjoy their semi-retired life. Please do not feed them. If you are interested in the horses, just ask Kirsten and she can answer all your questions and maybe take you to meet them.
