Rayleigh
Rayleigh is the perfect combination of country living and city convenience.
Rayleigh is a peaceful, family-friendly neighbourhood located about 15 minutes north of downtown Kamloops along the North Thompson River.

The homes here are mostly single-family and sit on larger lots, giving you a bit more space to spread out. It’s also a popular spot for people with RVs, boats, and other outdoor toys, thanks to the spacious yards.One of Rayleigh’s biggest draws is its riverside location. There’s easy access to the river for kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing, so if you’re into water activities, it’s an ideal spot.
