Simple, beautiful, woodsy

Tent ·

Simple beautiful site that was flat, had lots of birds (which we loved), and was easy to find. The washroom was great and had running water which was a big plus! The site was quite close to other sites so it was not as private as we were expecting, but not unreasonable whatsoever. Our biggest challenge was the unrelenting mosquitos so just be prepared if you are visiting in early summer!

Amazing place in the forest

Tent ·

Randy and his wife did an tremendous job with the Tealy Wheely! It's cozy, functional and well equipped! Outdoor kitchen and hot shower are amazing. The site had a gazebo with mosquito nets all around so we could spend time outside despite the bugs. Will be back and would recommend to anyone that wants to explore the area.

Quiet location, nice site with basic amenities (outhouse, firewood) great location just off the Highway, recommend for one or two nights. Plenty of trees for shade, few mosquitoes but nothing crazy!

Paid $62.48 CAD to stay here for one night. Compared to other campsites where we paid less and received much more, we felt it wasn't worth it. We were not greeted at all. There is no power, water or internet and only 1 bar of service. There wasn't even any water to wash your hands in the toilet and there was no lighting. If you stay here be sure to bring plenty of water with you and a few head torches.

Very nice campground, conveniently located close to the highway, but in a very secluded quiet area. Walked a tiny bit of the trail and wish we had time to do more of it!

Great stay!!!

Tent ·

Beautiful area! Very treed in! Sites are close together but still feel private. Randy was very accommodating when I wanted to change sites once we arrived. He also recommended things for us to check out and a local restaurant in town to try out(Papa Bear’s is a must try!). Yea, there are mosquitos…just like everywhere else. So bug spray/thermacell is a must! Would definitely stay here again!

Nice and clean, level site, nice fire pit, clean washroom, convenient access without being right by the highway. Checked all the boxes for our stay and we’ll be going back again!

Too many mosquitoes to eat outside Very far from everything , Except dry toilets no water no shower and small placement It is good for one night but nearly cheaper to sleep on a parking

From the minute we pulled up to our site we had the hosts come welcome us and give us tips and supplies. They were so generous and kind I would absolutely love to stay again!

It was a nice location being close to some amazing places but the photos on Hipcamp are a little misleading. There is no privacy between the tent sites. The outhouse was a little rickety. There was free wifi and firewood which was super nice but I would not stay again. (also not that the host can control this but the bugs were absolutely crazy definitely bring all the mosquito nets you have!)

Host was friendly and accommodating when we wanted to switch to a different site. The outhouse was close by and easily accessible. In general, it was clean and did not smell, however, there seemed to be an issue with both the faucets and the drain of the sink. We were there in mid-July and the mosquitoes were pretty bad. We were camping in our EV and mostly stayed inside the car. It was a short overnight stay on a cross country trip and overall it worked out fine for us.

This is a great place to camp, and super convenient! It's close to town and easy to get to, and also close to both Glacier and Banff National Park, making it the perfect home base for exploring. The property is quiet and peaceful, surrounded by the forest. Each site has a fire pit, there's firewood available, and there's a nice pit toilet, and sink with running water! I definitely recommend staying here.

Great place to stay, very quiet and private. Just make sure you have bug spray as it can get a little buggy.

I was the first camper of the spring 2025 season and Randy was ready! Fire pit, wood, water, outhouse and WiFi in the woods. Plus I stayed dry despite a huge storm that night on the well graded site.

Randy has such a nice little campground in the woods behind his property. The sites are right next to each other, but we happened to be the only campers there, so it was extra private and the silence was beautiful! Randy kindly left us some kindling to start a fire, and let us check out late. The outhouse was nice to have close by and a running water sink. Highly recommend for a secluded camp, compared to huge national campgrounds. Thanks!

Site 1 Pine Crescent

Great little secluded camp sites. A lot of shade so real good in the summer. I would not advise larger rigs stay here due to lack of turn around at sites. We were 20 feet plus my truck and the tree in the dead center makes it difficult to manuver. Sites are level for the most part. Outhouse is a work in progress. Nothing a good handyman could not fix in less than a day. Host was easy to get a hold of and very attentive to our needs. Thanks for hosting.

It’ll do in a pinch

We were looking for somewhere to stay for one night before heading into Yoho NP. If you’re only looking for a place to rest your head, this will work. Contrary to the listing, there are no fire pits for each campsite. The sites are very close together and small. We stayed on #3 with a small camper van (no slide outs) and had just enough room to pull in. The email from owner stated there was WiFi but my iPhone could not find a network present.

Site was silent and the letrine bathroom is nice! Sites very close to each other. The terrain is not very suitable for tents but perfect for RV’s, if you have a tent I recommend grabbing the site 5 because the other ones have rocks everywhere.

It honestly was more the situation than the site that made it hard to enjoy the experience.

The location was great, 1.5 hours from Banff and located along the trans canadian highway. The campsite was barebones, uneven land with tons of mosquitoes. I recommend bringing a screentent, you will not want to hang out outside most likely. 50 minutes drive from Yoho National Park and right by the Golden skybridge. Yoho is amazing!!!

The camp is very nice and secluded so the privacy is there. The outhouse is very clean and does not smell. Randy was very quick to respond and was very helpful. The only issue was the bugs. There were a ton of mosquitos and they were hard to deter. There are also a lot of wasps which were also hard to deter. Bug spray, mosquito coils and wasp traps are a must. There were also no picnic tables, which would have been nice, so bring a table. Aside from the bugs it was a great place to stay and would stay again, just better equipped.
