With WOODS on Pender fully booked up, I lucked out finding a spot at this National Park. What a treat to discover such a convenient camp site while spending the night on Pender Island. Nothing fancy, just a good, clean and nature-backed campsite - which is exactly what we needed to unplug. I recommend the sites on the back of the looping park road to be further from the busy main road. The sites were very well maintained and each had generously sturdy picnic tables to use. The best part of our stay here? Pop around the corner for one of the best dinners you can find, in the city or the forest, over at WOODS on Pender and say hi to Curtis for me.

Beautiful, small, clean campground in the forest close to major amenities on Pender. Pit toilets are not in great shape. Must have a reservation.

Lovely small campsite on North Pender. Most sites have great privacy and are set back into the woods. Access to the Heart Trail right from the campsite which goes to the disc golf park. Very close to amenities and ferry terminal but you wouldn't know it from the campsite - very quiet and peaceful. I will likely go back

Only 17 sites. They are spacious and mostly private, there are shared sites. The facilities are primitive yet clean. The area is quiet amid a temperate rainforest and a short drive from the ferry. It is a central location.

Beautiful island, lots of amazing places to go swimming, fishing, kayaking, etc. Great for families. Campground is great EXCEPT for the outhouses - honestly, worst outhouses we've ever experienced. That would be only reason we'd hesitate to go back.

Very Small campground, and also pretty quiet. We enjoyed staying here, however it would have been a bit more enjoyable if they had better washroom facilities. The grounds themselves are well maintained.

Clean, quiet, beautiful. A perfect central location for whatever nature excursions you might be planning. And the beautiful buck that was often munching his way through the greenery was a special plus.

Ok so this campground is really beautiful and sites are private. However, I was here first weekend of June 2023 and the campground as well as all of pender island is completely INFESTED by caterpillars. So if you don’t mind caterpillars crawling ALL over your tent, legs, and falling from the sky on to your head… camp here! I won’t be back… at least not till the pillars are gone

Small, well kept campground. Clean washrooms. No fires May to end of September due to island regs.

Great little campsite on Pender. Pit toilets were newer and clean. Great location, relatively quiet, generally private treed sites.
