Table of Contents
A Beautifully Kept Park!
My wife and I had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful campground in 🍁 Nanaimo, British Columbia – Canada, a couple of times now.
I ☎ telephoned in the morning of our first stay from out of town while traveling, to see if they had a site available for the night. The attendant on the phone was very friendly, and said that there was one dry site still available.
The campground is easy to find and centrally located to the {City of Nanaimo} on Vancouver Island, just 2.5 miles or 4 kilometers to downtown and the waterfront.
First, have a closer look at this short 📹 video offering a glimpse of this picturesque City located on 🌲 Vancouver Island.

After checking in, I could not help but notice how clean and well maintained this huge facility was.
As well and just after arriving to our assigned site, I had the feeling I was staying at one of BC’s Beautiful 🏞 Provincial Parks.
