    Amazing place to rent a boat. The owner and all the girls were super nice. Great price, great service will definitely be back!

  • Rob Piche

    Absolutely beautiful place with amazing surroundings and views. The people are awesome and friendly.

  • Aditya

    Had an amazing experience. We were a groups of 5 students from Kamloops and we rented a boat for ½ day. Very friendly and professional. Found this place to be cheaper and better option.

  • Laurel Smith

    Beautiful spot to beach for the day. Has tons of water sports rentals- kayaks, speed boats, sea doos, paddle boards. Also a gas bar and snack shack. Great family place with a great playground and nice sandy beach.

  • Joan Westfall

    We recently enjoyed some time at lovely Bruker Marina, always friendly, helpful staff. We were especially happy to see Cara's sweet doggy Ember there, what a delightful beach mascot, we've missed not seeing her there very much this season!

  • Kevin Millin

    Had a great Hawaiian pizza at the marina yesterday. The sauce is similar to Red Tomato in Kamloops really good!! We will be going back for another before the season is over. Just an update I was down for a swim yesterday and there is a calm inviting atmosphere!! Great place to cool down or spend the day!! They are making some improvements and with this great weather great place for locals to enjoy!

    We rented a pontoon boat from Bruker Marina, and had so much fun with it. They delivered it to another lake for us which was great because it cut out a lot of work for us. It arrived on time and ran great for the week we had it. There was a concern with the quoted price to what we were charged, but Kerry honoured the lower price without any problem and we thank him for that. A great place to deal with and hope to be back next year to rent from them again.

    First time visitors to this spot as it made the most sense being only 20 minutes to town and having small kids. An honest mistake was made on my part (stopped in the wrong area to unload our stuff). After I unloaded everything, and attempted to start my car to move to our paid parking spot, the battery was dead and it wouldn't turn over, with my kids in tow it was a very stressful start of the day 😓. Then we were promptly yelled at by the owner for being "parked" in the wrong spot, my apologies nor situation were not accepted (or even acknowledged), and no help was offered despite outlining that my battery was dead and would need to be jumped in order to move my car... instead a fine was promised if the car wasn't moved asap. Awesome first impression. After this first visit I won't be back

  • Malina Griffiths

    I do not suggest going here, $20 for beach access is unbelievable especially when there is no beach at all and they are doing construction on the tiny little area of sand that is there. Employees are rude and clearly have dementia because …

  • Ava McGuire

    I found a very peaceful place a distance from the shore also you can break rocks and find crystals

  • Ty

    Terrible first time visit. Will never be back. After spending over $125 here I was told I could park for a couple hours to visit friends. This was at 7pm and instead of the owner letting me know that they would be closed if we took a …

  • Esteban Tissone

    If you are planning on hanging out at the beach here there is a fee of 20 dlls just for being at the beach here, We thought the money was worth it, when we got to the beach and realized there is only about 100ft of shoreline and there is …

    After a friend won a CFJC silent auction for a pontoon boat rental for a full day, he tried to book. He was told there were no boats available in the time frame before the certificate was invalid. He had another person who was a member call …

  • Tannis Williams

    A perfect little spot and short drive from Kamloops. 10$ parking(chairs provided, playground, water trampoline) which I didn’t mind paying considering that this is a privately owned and operated beach. We met Kerry on the dock and he told …

  • Christopher Ward

    My wife and I had a great experience here. I'm a new boater and there is a lot I don't know. I had interactions with 2 people there, one of whom was the owner. He was very friendly and gave me some very helpful tips. Moreover, I'm …

  • Stacy Gerritse

    These guys are crooks. We canceled a reservation to comply with covid safety precautions and they charged us nearly the full amount for a rental. Hope this review will save others $200 and that you’ll support a different local businesses that operates in good conscience

  • Ian

    They charged inappropriately on credit card even after rented amount paid full in advance. I have noticed additional transaction posted of $11 on my credit card after rented jet ski and paid amount dicussed on rental agreement. So please review your statement and be careful while giving credit card info.

  • Alex S.

    Be aware: I am not the first reporting that same issue with the owner being impolite to customers. We drove all the way from Vancouver to enjoy the long weekend on a lake and to spend some good time having fun on a Sea Doo. All the rental …

  • Moira Spooner

    Never in my many years of boating have I experienced such disorganization. Pay $10 for parking, only to find the lot full and overflowing. Even worse than that was the mayhem at the boat launch. Swimmers, kayaks, boats sitting for 20 …

  • Veen Aldosky

    Just discovered this gem in Kamloops - wonderful adventure on the water. Boat rental prices reasonable - but would be nice to have parking waived when renting. Nice talking to the owner - he’s clearly out in a lot of work

  • Jules LaRue

    It was my first time here. I really liked it. I was on a canoe trip with a large group, about 12 canoes for a traditional canoe journey. So our experience was extremely memorable. Politicak representatives were in attendance, & media as …

  • Dave Ego

    Best service I have ever received! A truly over-the-top and superior experience. I would recommend this marina to anyone. It has an excellent boat ramp, great docks, a store, a restaurant, play ground, parking and all for reasonable price.

  • Romans Manyiel

    Perfect place for an evening quiet boating

  • Karl H

    A nice facility for sure. Had my boat moored for 2 seasons and staff took great care and pride in making sure it was safe and secure. Would use and moor again!!! They keep adding to the facility to make a better experience every time!!!

  • Yves Skeels

    Went out for the first time , thought we’d grab a bite .. sadly the place was very unorganized. Found a surf board on the lake as we were pulling in. Asked one of the employees if they had a lost and found but the new guy didn’t know where …

  • 마크웨너스

    There was not a soul in sight. I walked all the docks freely and unhindered. Only the birds made squaking sounds. ...well, there was some old lady on one of those hilltop homes I could hear in the distance... but all in all, I was free …

  • Diane Peppard

    What a great place to spend a beautiful sunny day. Rent a Kayak if you dont own one. They even have double seater Kayaks, peddle boats more. We enjoyed kayaking! AND not overly priced at all for rentals.

  • Rod Trenholm

    Very nice place. Nice big double ramp to launch the boats. Lotsa great improvements including restaurant gas bar and many rentals since the new owner took over ..... great job!

  • Marti Masaro

    Excellent facilities with professional, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Reasonably priced for the services provided. The lake is a hidden gem and the marina compliments it nicely. We will be back!

  • Fly Man

    The boat launch is nice, good beach, but the food seemed to take forever to be done, and was mediocre at best. Will bring our own food if we come back.

  • Jonas Hildebrandt

    Chef Gus is a fraud. Ordered Talons and fries after a 35min wait the kids chicken strips only had 2 and some measly fries. Beach and playground are amazing just pack your own lunch.

  • Jamie Silva

    We had a very pleasurable experience. Good rates on rentals. Pizza at the Marina was also very excellent. Very friendly staff here. We will be back for sure.

  • Alex Passini

    Close to Kamloops to launch your boat or simply go down to the lake. We have some friends with a boat here and its an easy in/out. We'll rent the paddle boards next time.

  • Michael Ronneseth

    Great place, he's done a ton of work to create something special there. I only went in to check it out today as it's been years since I visited the marina. Prices seemed reasonable and the selection of stuff was really good.

  • Sara Nikolic

    Super friendly, quick with trouble shooting. They gave us what we asked for. Zero hassle for thia experience. Fun was their priority and they have outdone themselves. Will come here again.

  • Kelvin Ward

    Went to rent kayaks for a couple of hours on the lake. The marina was absolute chaos. Mediocre service at best, topped off by a $10 charge to park. Wont' be back.

  • jay

    Excellent place to relax, take kayak or paddle board. Nice beach, good for swim. $10 to park so keeps the riffraff out!

  • Ingrid Benavides

    Nice beach area with store, ice cream and many different of rentals available. Day beach use is only $10 per vehicle.

  • Brian Danyliw

    Really friendly staff! Excellent, well maintained equipment, and the location is top notch. The Lake is beautiful. Lots of fun, highly recommend!

  • Geoff Cohen

    10 Dollars to park. any day every day or else they tow your car... never heard of a marina charging this... launch fee makes sense but parking does not.

  • Monica Vermette

    Nice play area for the kids. Water shoes needed. Had a bit of a swim. More picnic tables would be nice. Would go again because of proximity.
