Seasonal / Long-term Camping

The provincial park seasonal camping program offers an opportunity to secure a campsite from park opening in mid-May to the end of September at select locations.

In addition, 20 provincial parks offer seasonal camping with varying numbers of sites from park to park. Seasonal campsites will be available online or through the call centre and reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.

Availability

Seasonal campsites are available for stays from May 18, 2023, to September 30, 2023, unless stated otherwise.

  • Full-service campsites are defined campsites with electricity, water, and sewer hookup. Campers also have access to a service centre, firewood, fire pit and picnic table. Service centres contain showers, flush toilets, hot and cold running water, sinks, and electrical outlets.
  • Electric campsites are defined campsites with electricity and water point access. Campers also have access to a service centre, firewood, fire pit and picnic table.
  • Non-electric campsites are campsites with access to non-dedicated water points, firewood, fire pit, picnic table and within driving distance of a service centre. No electricity available within campsites.

End of Season Information

When vacating the campsite at the end of the season, the permit holder must remove all personal property and restore the campsite to its original condition. If the campsite is not restored to its original condition, the ministry reserves the right to restore the campsite and charge the associated costs for restoration of the campsite. Failure to comply with the above conditions and Parks Act and Regulations may result in eviction and/or loss of the seasonal campsite for the season, or in future seasons.
