Westwood Lake Campground Resort

Sara and the team made our stay fantastic. We have family across the island and was the perfect meeting spot for a mini get together. Facilities were spotless, and super good swimming a 2 min walk down the road. One party rented the Le Cabin (the larger one). Adorable and spotlessly clean. We will definitely be coming back.

Beautifully maintained, and managed by the owners. Most campgrounds we have stayed at feel like minimum input, maximum profit. Westwood lake RV resort was the opposite, as in, the effort to create an exceptional environment was apparent from the first moments. They treat it as if it is a passion project, and obviously take pride in their work. They don't tolerate obnoxious campers, but are also very fair in their approach to dealing with disturbers of the peace: you will get a friendly notice first, but if you ignore it, that's on you!We felt like family during our seasonal stay, and have no honest criticism (which is extremely rare, I tend to nit-pick about the smallest details!).Ok, here's 1 criticism: they are booked far in advance! Book early or miss out...

Our family had a wonderful time here just recently in Le Cottage. It was a spacious and cozy cabin experience that included a fire pit and BBQ! We experienced top shelf hospitality from everyone that works there. This business has been in their family for many many years and during our visit went above and beyond to make it memorable. Very kid friendly area, where our children could ride around on bikes. When we asked about board games they supplied a few and everyone had a blast. They also assisted in chiropractic recommendations in the area because of an issue I was experiencing, bravo!Thank you for everything!

Definitely one of the best hidden gemson Vancouver Island!!!Very clean, friendly and safe campground within a 2 minute walk to an amazing lake with great beaches, swimming, kayaking, boating, stand-up paddle boards (oh ya, the campground rents them all too) and even some of the best fishing on the Island too!There’s so much to do here including the best biking, hiking and running trails of all levels. My fave is the 6k trail around the Lake before a swim and back to the campsite for a BBQ!

I've had the pleasure to stay at a cabin here for the past few month. The cabins are very cozy and the location is amazing- only a couple minute walk to the lake. I felt very comfortable, safe and at home here. It's nice to see a family run business where they care about your comfort and your wellbeing. I'll miss it here! Thanks guys for such a memorable time in my life :)

My partner nailed it when she booked the Tiny Home located here. Had everything we needed for a great couple of days of Mountain Biking great trailed and a perfect swim in the lake to end each day. We ran out of propane but Sarah was there in minutes had us fixed up. Great Host. Great place. Ever had a private porch to enjoy some alone time of have some folks over for an evening glass of wine. Highly recomend this place.

READ THE REVIEWS BEFORE YOU DO BUSINESS. Called looking for a place to park a trailer to help a Ukrainian family that we were going to pay for while the husband earned some money working for us to rent. Lady was extremely rude and was telling me that they had to speak English. I explained that they communicate well and she was adamate about them speaking English. Then the guy called and am I ever thankful that I started reading some of the reviews here as he was no better. Clearly they don't want to earn your business. Disgusted.

This place is awful, extremely awful, we booked two adults room for tenting in the morning around 10 AM on May 22, but my friend got injured at noon so we cancelled it immediately at 1:50 pm on the same day. The rude woman said you won't get any refund cause we are really busy, they take no responsibility for her customers, saying nothing in advance about refund policy but urging us paying the money. Greedy team which don't have any empathy on you guys, I sincerely suggest people who wanna go camping stay away from this rude and ruthless team.

We had a great time at Westwood Lake for the 2nd year we stayed at the Cottage. Sarah remembered it was our anniversary and left us lovely hydrangeas to enjoy :) The staff have been most helpful and the sites provide a nice atmosphere with personal touches like flowers, hedges and driftwood for privacy. Our friends left their campground in Parksville and got a great RV site at Westwood Resort on short notice. The location is perfect, a short walk to the lake, a place where summer memories are made!

I called to inquire about availability and the receptionist was very rude. I told her we were a group in our 20s and just wanting to catch up with our friends from out of town. She then began to quiz me on why we would want to camp and where we live. I told her Nanaimo and she began to interrogate me about things. Very unnecessary and judgemental, as soon as she heard we were in our 20s her tone of voice changed. I don’t see this as information that is needed, and to be rude after hearing that is uncalled for. You won’t be getting our business.
