All campsites offer a mix of both shade and openness. Parking for extra vehicles is available in the day-use parking lot. Please self register upon arrival at the campground.

Help BC Parks protect the environment by reducing firewood consumption. Please respect voluntary burning hours of 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.; use mid-day fires only for cooking; for safety's sake, keep campfires small and extinguish them when no one is around. The Park Facility Operator sells firewood. You may also bring your own. It is an offence to use vegetation dead or alive to start or maintain a fire. Small trees and shrubs are easily damaged. Do not use them for wiener sticks or tarp/clothesline supports.
