Surrounding Communities
The area of Deloro is located 25 minutes east of the city of Kamloops or approximately 23 kilometers. Deloro and the South Thompson Valley consists of a few different areas with various housing options from a popular mobile home park to golf course properties to large acreages and ranches. This area does not have any shopping or schools but they are not very far by car. A portion of Deloro and South Thompson Valley is accessible by the Lafarge Bridge which is past the Wildlife Park in Campbell Creek. The other area of Deloro is on the south side of the Thompson River off of Highway #1.
Country View Estates is located at the top of Adcock Road which intersects with Shuswap Road. This park consists of a lot of double wide units as the lots that they sit on are larger than most mobile home park lots. The owners in this pare either pay a monthly pad rent or the owners purchased the land and are paying a bare land strata fee. Some units have a longer lease with the park that reduces their pad rent. The park has a small playground for children and houses quite a number of units. This park has beautiful mountain and river views from many of the homes. One side of the park backs on to green space while the other backs on to river views and farmland.
Rivershore Golf Links is located off of Shuswap Road immediately after the South Thompson Inn, Guest Ranch and Conference Centre. Streets in this development include Navatanee Drive, Neuva Wynd, Pevero Place and Kananaskis Road. Since this is a bare land strata development the residents of this area pay a small strata fee which covers water, sewer, garbage charges and road maintenance/snow clearing for the development. All the homes in this area are executive style, detached, larger homes. Many homes overlook the golf course and have mountain views. This is not only a mature area for adults, it also has a number of younger families with children, which can be surprising on first glance.
Deloro also consists of small to large acreages, farms and ranches. Some smaller acreages are located along the South Thompson River and across from the river. The main access road for these types of properties is Shuswap Road. Some of the smaller properties are located after Rivershore Golf Course communit on streets such as Jardine Road, Teel Road, Keel Place, Pintal Road, Malard Road, Sheer Road and River Vista Drive to name a few.

These homes are predominantly small acreages and are located on Wittner Road, Demers Place and Duncan Road.
