Kissinger Lake

A great little destination lake is Kissinger, within 2 hours drive from the Gabriola Island ferry on Vancouver Island this is a great spot to camp for a few days. This small lake is located just past Cowichan Lake on the way to the Carmanah Valley. It is run by Timber West and will be open until the Thanksgiving weekend. The water is clear and a comfortable temperature for swimming, the lake is stocked with trout, there are no gas powered craft allowed, and mid week you almost have the place to yourself. There is a bit of history here to stumble upon, as it was a thriving logging camp in the mid 1900s. This is one of our favorite fall destinations.
