Mount Revelstoke National Park Snowforest Campground

Is this campground suitable for a "big rig"? We have a 34 foot 5th wheel.

Or should we camp at Blanket Creek PP??

    I was looking at sites there that were 65 feet and up also on there site.

  • just go on the canada national parks reservation system and lookup that campground. took me 2 minuits and I found there are several sites that are plenty big enough to handle my 40' fith wheel so yes it has sites than can handle yours.

    Will do. And also a review on RV parks review


    Thank you. We traveled to that area in 2005, so we intend to go back. I'm looking forward to your review.

  • I believe this campground is fairly new and is in Mount Revelstoke National Park.

    Parks Canada supplies a phone number and a email address if you want to ask a specific question.

    I use Campendium all the time and as you say no info. I never thought to start a reservation to find the lengths. Thanks.

    Since Blanket Creek is a little (20 miles ???) out of our way, we had planed to park at Snowforest for a day or so and drive to enjoy Blanket Creek.
  • I just checked on Campendium - it's a free site, you just have to sign on to see pics. Blanket Creek has 105 sites and looks like there's plenty of room. We have a 35' FW and would go there. As for Snowforest CG, there was nothing on Campendium and their website says RV camping is available, but doesn't say what size, which is probably your problem. If you don't get an answer on Revelstoke, I'd suggest you plan at least one night at Blanket Creek, then drive over to Revelstoke and check it out. If you like it better, get your rig. That's usually what we do.
