It’s the perfect place to camp near Bear Creek Provincial Park and Myra-Bellevue Provincial Park. We have 3 private campsites with stunning mountain views perfect for a small trailer, or self-contained camper van/tent. Guests can enjoy biking, fishing, hiking and wildlife watching all nearby. We also have a white sand volleyball court to relax and enjoy some friendly competition with your camping partner at the end of your day. Please note that there are no amenities available at the campsite. Campers will need to have a self-contained vehicle and leave no trace. We are dog friendly and request that dogs remain under their owner's control at all times and on leash. We do not allow campfires as our home burned down last year in the McDougal Creek fire as well as a lot of the neighbourhood so we don’t allow any fires or smoking cigarettes on the property. We will be building our new home during the summer but the build is a bit away from where the sites are so it shouldn’t be an issue. But this is forwarded as we know that this is a priority for us as so we won’t stop building even if we have campers, so we just want everyone to know this in advance! We can’t wait to host you and if you have any questions before booking, just ask!

We absolutely LOVED staying on Kathy’s property. It’s set back from the road enough that traffic noise is minimal. The bathroom was very clean and has nightlights, making it easy to find in the dark. All of the sites are right beside each other along the riverside of the property. When we arrived, Kathy recommended we move from site 2 to site 7, which was further away from the kids playground and right next to the communal “patio” and also in the shade for most of the day. She also provides a common area that is great with benches and tables and a barbecue! It was great to have a full cooking space and a shady place to eat in the summer heat. A lovely collie came to greet us and was super gentle with our senior Dachshund. We forgot ice on our 2nd night and it was great that Kathy had bags of ice to sell to us for $5/bag! Nighttime was glorious, very little light pollution and a sky full of stars and shooting stars. I highly recommend this site, and we will stay here again for sure!!

Our host greeted us upon arrival and allowed a late, last minute check in as we were traveling up to Alaska! They were super accommodating and considerate! We had the whole place to ourselves. Everything was super clean and well kept. They allowed us to run our dogs and let them play in the water which was so nice to try and tucker them out before another long day of driving. Highly recommend this HipCamp!!

Kathy was awesome. Very helpful getting us settled comfortably. She also let us know about a local street party and helped us figure out the river float. Our weekend at Kathy's campground was incredible. I would definitely come back.
