Hi. My name is Christian and welcome to my beautiful Forest Sanctuary on the slopes of Mt. Elphinstone in Roberts Creek on the Sunshine Coast. My property is a magical, private nature retreat created in the spirit of love and reverence for the land on which it is built. It is a sanctuary to nurture the body, mind and spirit. A place to come back to One's Self. I have taken a piece of forest and transformed it into a Premium camping experience with pastures, terraces, pathways, a pond and island, level campsites with grass and sand and a communal outdoor pavilion lounge with fully stocked kitchen at your disposal. A large communal campfire is available. I have solar showers too. This is a magnificent place to bring the kids, a wonderful place to hang with friends and family, a peaceful place for lovers and a great place to come on your own to remember how awesome and talented you really are. I can accommodate larger groups, workshops and parties. Ask me about renting the entire site for private gatherings. My fully stocked pavilion, kitchen and lounge has all the cookware, dishware and utensils needed to prepare your meal. There is also a BBQ and Coleman stove with propane provided. Drinking water is provided. Firewood is free when campfires are permitted. For bathing I have a solar shower and a little aquifer-fed pond for clean, cold water dips. If you want something a little fancier I have a great little off-grid camping cabin which rents for $135/night. You can ask me about it. My campsite is located in Roberts Creek, British Columbia. Roberts Creek is a peaceful, eclectic, rural community seated between Gibsons and Sechelt, and possesses a stunning blend of beaches, forest, and some of the friendliest people you will come across. A relaxing atmosphere awaits you here, where both your artistic and outdoor adventure self is sure to feel at home.

We've unfortunately had children cutting down small trees, ripping moss & bark off of trees & damaging playground equipment. For some reason Hipcamp doesn't show my individual sites, so I will list them here. Some say Adults only (a minimum of 19 yrs)due to sharp drop offs to the river and undercut banks that would be unsafe for children. SITES: Site 21.

(measurements of that to follow) Private, with gorgeous wide open view of the river, Pairs well with site 45 and 21.

The best camping near Mount Seymour Provincial Park guide

Overview

About

Just a 30-minute drive from downtown Vancouver, Mount Seymour Provincial Park is a favourite among residents of the Lower Mainland, partly due to its viewpoints overlooking Vancouver, Mount Baker, and Say Nuth Khaw Yum (Indian Arm) Provincial Park. Visitors will find many trails of various lengths and difficulty—the hiking trails to Dog Mountain, Mystery Lake, and Mount Seymour peak are particularly popular. Lower mountain trails are used extensively by mountain bikers and hikers, while upper mountain trails near the ski resort area are restricted to hiking until winter trails are put in place in December. The park features extensive winter facilities for skiing, snowshoeing, and snow play. Camping options include just two group camping sites available for up to 16 people each.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  1. Mount Seymour’s two group camping sites available for year-round reservation.
  2. All group campsite reservations must be made by phone or online at BC Parks’ Discover Camping website.

 

When to go

Mount Seymour Provincial Park is open year-round. During the winter months, the resort area is busy with skiers and riders, while the park sees winter snowshoe and hiking enthusiasts. In summer, Mount Seymour’s lower sections are teeming with mountain bikers, while hikers occupy the upper sections accessible from the resort’s parking lot. Due to the park’s popularity and proximity to populated areas, day-use permits may be required in summer. Winter trails are put in place from mid-December through March 31 each year.

Know before you go

  • Due to the park’s popularity in summer, BC Parks has instituted a day-use pass reservation system. This is to limit overcrowding and impacts on the park’s alpine sensitive environment. 
  • Mount Seymour Provincial Park doesn’t have wifi, and cell phone service can be spotty along the upper mountain trails.
  • Open fires aren’t permitted in the park’s backcountry.
  • The mountainous backcountry can be rugged and unforgiving, so visitors should be experienced and properly equipped. Anyone planning to travel in the backcountry (whether overnight or for just a few hours) should inform a friend or family member of their intended route and anticipated return time.
  • Winter snowshoe trails and ski trails marked by BC Parks do not require a permit or day-use pass.
