History and Hydroelectric Operation The Seton Lake Reservoir Recreation Area is located on Cayoosh Creek, near the confluence of the Seton and Fraser Rivers, in an area first inhabited by the interior Salish-speaking St'at'imc (STAH-tleum) people. Their underground winter homes, or "kekulis", can still be seen at the Seton Lake Viewpoint. In the later 1800s, hundreds of Chinese prospectors scoured the banks of Cayoosh Creek in search of gold. The remains of a Chinese bake oven can be seen in the campground, a reminder of the gold rush days. Seton Beach is a day-use area that offers access for picnicking, boating, canoeing, hiking and fishing.
