Nestled on a beautiful 40-acre park, our Campground and RV Park provides a relaxed, natural atmosphere perfect for family fun. Conveniently located in the heart of Vancouver Island, just beside the Nanaimo airport (a 5-minute drive) and approximately 20 minutes by car from both ferry terminals connecting to Vancouver. Featuring 30 and 50 amp fully or partial-serviced sites, ample green spaces, and cozy on-site RV Glamping units and cabins tucked away in the woods, Mountainaire is your ideal starting point or departure spot for a Vancouver Island vacation. Enjoy our newly renovated bathrooms, warm showers, and on-site laundromat, along with the added convenience of an onsite store. Take a short hike through the rainforest to the breathtaking Crystal Bowl for activities like river swimming, cliff diving, kayaking, or even crayfish catching with your little ones. Young campers can bike down ramps, play in the playground, and witness the fascinating transformation of tadpoles into western toads (a species at risk). Don’t miss our renowned special events and unwind with a Friday night movie accompanied by free popcorn. PARK AMENITIES: Lots of mature trees, green space and ramps. Bring your bikes.

Isolated nights, beautiful camp!
Nice place, beautiful view of the night sky (if not, cloudy!), and we were isolated. There was a little bit of noise in the morning from dump trucks a few hundred meters away, but we didn't mind. Bring loonies for shower ($1/7 minutes) and washing was loonies plus quarters (I think it was 2.50 for a wash, but I didn't do any washing while there)

We had a tough time getting there with the ferry and all, but once we got to the campsite and settled in, it was amazing. The site was pretty secluded. The people that were there were all really nice. The area was covered in snow which made it beautiful. My wife and I had a great time snow camping.

We ended up staying in campsite 38, this was a nice, private site. The campsite host was very nice and checked up on us regularly. Highly recommend this campground. The water hole was amazing!

We really enjoyed our stay in the park. It’s well appointed, great WIFI signal, water, RV dump, and very quiet. The staff is super friendly, and children of all ages have things to do. We rode mountain bicycles up gravel roads and road bicycles in paved roads and there is much scenery and forests to enjoy!
