Named for an early settler in the nearby Kettle River Valley, W.H. Conkle, this secluded park is a perfect place for a quiet vacation. It features 34 vehicle/tent sites set in a forest of western larch, lodgepole pine, alder, and willow, and is a favourite with sunbathers, swimmers, and anglers.

There are 2 group campsites at this park as well as walk-in camping above the day-use area. There are five picnic tables, one pit toilet and a central fire pit. The area is open and natural with no tent pads and is surrounded by dense young forest with a few mature trees. There is room for 5-10 tents. Fees are collected from May to September, the campground is open in off season, but no fees and no services.

Conkle Lake is a bit of a trek to reach, but once there you'll find good car-top-boat fishing for rainbow trout in an idyllic setting. It's so quiet here that you'd think it was a library. Swimming is a favourite activity at Conkle Lake, where there is a beach.
