Sun Peaks Resort was just awesome. Stayed at Trail's Edge townhouses (#4) and the acocmmodation was excellent too. 3 moutnains all funnel into the one village which made getting around easy. Decent restaurants but not a lot of retail shopping. Best in BC outside of Whistler in my opinion.

The view is amazing with all kinds of hiking trails. There was nothing to dislike about this place at all. The village had many shops and restaurants.

I have been visiting Sun Peaks since 2008 and actually lived there from 2010 to 2011. It is very family orientated, with many events hosted during summer and winter. Given the proximity to Kamloops and highway 16, it is very easily accessed. The road is not that windy compared to other ski areas, with the exception being one hair pin... More

The whole family had a great time at this ski resort near Kamloops, BC. The terrain is excellent, the slopes are well maintained, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the weather is sunny and perfect.

With three mountains to choose from, we find this to be a wonderful place to ski. If the visibility is poor, there is always another area with trees where you can see and ski. The area also grooms more and better than any other area we have been to. We ski with a group of seniors: some head to the... More

This trip was made last year, but a recent trip to another resort this year has shown me how great of a place this is. The ski runs were a very good variety. I can't speak for the black runs, but there were nice gentle green runs and good blue runs. Lots of fresh powder the whole time we were... More

great value in the summer. make sure your room has AC, as many do not. Not too many restaurants open in the summer. You can have a more deluxe room here than in Kamloops in the summer for a better deal

Our family had a fabulous time on Family Day. It was amazing how quickly the lifts can put people up the hills. If you are in the Kamloops area and want somewhere to ski that is a great location with 3 mountains to ski on, choose Sun Peaks. There are some amazing places to stay, great restaurants to eat at...

What's not to like? The area is beautiful, the locals are friendly. Great downhill and cross-country skiing. Winter fun and fine dining.
