Camping in British Columbia

Northern Stay gives you access to privately owned campgrounds across British Columbia through the member portal. Browse by location, date, and amenity. Sites are reserved for members only — not available on public platforms like Hipcamp or Airbnb Experiences.

If you camp 10 or more nights per season, yes. Private campgrounds in British Columbia charge $60–100+ per night. 15 nights at $75 average is $1,125 — a Getaway Pass gives you 30 nights for $999. The more you camp, the more you save.

Every Northern Stay membership includes access to all campgrounds in your coverage area including British Columbia, no nightly rates, advance booking priority, and member-only site access. The Getaway Pass covers 30 nights. The Lifestyle Membership gives unlimited seasonal access every year.

Yes — the Getaway Pass and Lifestyle Membership include all of Canada, so you can camp in British Columbia and every other province in the Northern Stay network within the same pass. Regional Seasonal passes cover specific areas — confirm coverage when selecting your membership.

BC Parks opens campsite reservations in March — exact dates vary by park, so check camping.bcparks.ca for your specific destination. High-demand parks like Garibaldi, Cultus Lake, and Golden Ears fill within an hour of opening. Some parks use a lottery system for peak dates. Set a calendar reminder for your target park and be ready to book the moment reservations go live — walking in without a reservation to a busy BC park in July is not a plan.
