As a National Park campground, this is a great place. Where else would you have elk bugling in the morning and wandering through your site. We will definitely stay here again, despite the fact that it is an extremely popular place. Reservations are essential in June, July, August, and September. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is the most beautiful campground we have stayed in. Waking up our first morning to see the Elk bedded down near our motorhome was a treat. There is plenty of room between sites and a great place to walk & clean up after your dogs. The only problem we had was the blow over smoke from the camp sites that allowed a campfire the first 2 nights of our stay. Great location to tour from. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a very nice campground located in a wooded area. The sites were large and spacious. The only bad note : they don't have enough sites with hookups so we had no services on our site. Make early reservations ! They also limit the use of generators. If we had a full hookup site, we would rate the site 8 or 9 instead of 7. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I highly recommend camping in the area where fires are not permitted, as the park attracts a party crowd on the long weekends. But over in the fire-free zones (Section 30), it is lovely and peaceful. The elk in the park can be a bit unnerving, especially during their rutting season. The only drawback is the site is so large, you've got to drive to get to the showers. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
In spite of the size of this park, we give it an enthusiastic 10. We return at least once each year and look forward to that return all year long. Elk roaming the campground, Abundant walking/hiking/recreational opportunities and great dining in the area make this a prime spot. Yes if you want one of the limited hook-up sites, reserve early---its easy to do an we've never had a problem. This is your camp of choice while exploring the incredibly scenic region and the most beautiful drive in the world...the Ice fields Parkway. Words fail to adequately describe this stretch of road. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
I love this park. In amoungst the beautiful trees. Nice flat spaces. Elk grazing around the RV's. Would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Whistlers is a beautiful park with a wilderness feel to it even though there are 781 sites. This is our favorite campground so far this year. There are many pull-thrus, lots of shade, clean restrooms and it is quiet. The town of Jasper is only a couple of miles away and there are several scenic drives with an abundance of wildlife close by. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This a very huge park with loops that intersect each other, so if you are walking it is very easy to get lost! Elk wander throughout the grounds, so you do have to careful especially when walking a pet. The grounds are beautiful and the sites spacious. It was very quiet even with most of the sites filled. It was cool and rainy when we were there and only spent one night as we were on our way to Alaska, but we definitely would stay again. We camped in a Motorhome in 2004. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very similar to Whistlers. Entry is just across the road into Jasper. Most sites were occupied, so we settled for boondocking rather than the electric only sites in the "parking lot". Fire permit of $7 required if you want a campfire, but that includes all the wood you want to burn. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
