Dutch’s Back In Business

A popular campsite in Coldstream is starting to see business pick-up after several setbacks earlier in the season.

Dutch’s Campground on Kalamalka Road had to shut down just before the Canada Day weekend due to some unsafe trees caused by high water levels undermining the root system.

Owner Darren Dalgarno was finally able to reopen last week, but still had issues.

“After the flooding and then the trees, we’ve had quite a few people concerned about the (wildfire) smoke, so we had some cancellations. Seems like now, we’re getting the overnight tourists and the word is getting out,” says Dalgarno
