Apparently the whole moutain (mt Kobau) is private property. Suggesting the rest area nearby or truck stop (co-op in town) if you are to stop near Osoyoos. Also, there's no drinking water around unless you have 5 bucks to spend for a fill up at buy low foods.

was a nice quiet place to camp. no traffic at all on the road while I was there. definitely more suited for smaller set ups.

A great spot to be sure but, as noted by others, some creative levelling is required. We deployed all 20 of our levelling blocks without being able to bring our 22 ft RV to within the 3 deg limit for our absorption fridge. And we’re damned good at levelling. Reluctantly we had to drive away. Future visitors need to be aware of this.

Very nice and quiet place! The view is beautiful! As said very hot and exposed in summer but if you come after 6 pm you should be good to have shadow from the mountains. Better for small camper.

Plan Free (on YouTube) here! We pulled in here with our Jeep to check it out (because our motorhome is a 31 ft Class C). As others have already stated it is a small spot that would require a lot of leveling. probably best suited for vans or smaller.
Super super hot and exposed here, no shade or cover as far as the eye can see, in all directions. Would be extremely hot in June, July, August. Superb and expansive view though!

Nice place relax. perfect for having peace.

Attempted to stay here but it's a small spot not really suited to big rigs and hard to get level (we have a 24ft class C). Beautiful spot for camping though or a smaller set up. Some rubbish around which is a shame. Spectacular sunset. Note that the pullout is right at the beginning of the old road, couple of old campfires so you know you're in the spot.

Excellent, quiet and scenic spot! Didn’t see a single vehicle.

you'll have to drive aboud 2km on a gravel road, then there's a beautiful spot in the middle of the mountains. no vehicles driving around in the evening or at night, a few vehicles in the morning tho. also there's a fire pit but it's really windy so be carefull when you go to bed, make sure it won't start again with the wind. the sunset was incredible! I went for a little hike to go take some pictures and it was really beautiful. be careful with cactus, and enjoy!

Nice little spot for a few nights. As below said, pulled off the gravel road to the right onto a little dirt path. Good views of the hills. A few cars passed down the gravel road through the days headed up the mountain, but didn't notice anyone else sticking around long. A few cows walking around the area (and some patties left). Was quite breezy and chilly at times once the sun is gone which was a good break from the heat.
