Basic park. Level grassy and shaded sites. Some long term residents. Only a block away from the lake and we had a lake 'glimpse' from our site. Public mineral pool is across the street. Cable TV is an extra $4/day, $16/week. We liked it here as we were right in the village and could walk to stores/restaurants/lake unlike some other parks which are further away. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice Campsite. Unfortunatley the Park Staff were offensive, rude, and aggressive! I suggest some kind of host training,as these people had absolutley no manners! We were not ruining anyone else's experience, there were no complaints against us! (We asked the nieghbors). But they used 3 staff members,and intimidation and threat tactics to stop us when singing Fred Penner songs by the fire! (I'm sure many were offended by the content!) The only staff member who was in way civil was an older staff member on Sunday, who actually said good morning. Asked how we were doing,then politley informed us of certain rules...Definatley not worth the money wasted!.. We camped here in a Tent.

Sasquatch Provincial Park is located a little NE of Harrison Hot Springs BC. There are three campgrounds - Lakeside, Hicks Lake and Bench. The first two are on small lakes and have a limited number of lakeside sites. All are heavily wooded. with large and well-separated sites. Most of the sites are on a reservation system but there are some first-come sites in each campground. The campgrounds are about seven miles from town, the last three of which are on a fairly good unpaved road. There is a dump station a mile or so before the first campground turnoff but there is no water there. Potable water is available from central spigots in each campground but filling a large tank from them is awkward, so going in with a full tank is recommended. Firewood is available for purchase from the rangers. We enjoyed this park and will go there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice park. Walking distance to town. Nice staff. Sites are close, very few big rig sites and hard to maneuver. Spent several nights here and would go back. Our rig is 35' long. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great location for Hot Springs and Lake--only a block from public hot springs and beach. Older park but nicely maintained. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is an excellent family campground. It is less than 5 minutes to walk to the beach and Hot Springs. The sites are very nice, the owners and staff are friendly and helpful. They have a resident pair of peacocks and ducks. We stayed here for 12 days. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We reserved our sites in advance. On reservation we specified that we had travel trailers with slide outs. Upon arrival we were given two sites that were not compatible for travel trailers but tent trailers. The staff was rude and not willing to accommodate us. We will never recommend this place. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The campground is now called Springs RV. Wi-Fi didn't work, they staff was friend and the park overall was clean. The only garbage bins we could find was at the front gate not very convenient. We had camped here in the past and we enjoyed the wide grassy sites as we have small grandchildren. The nice grassy sites had been replaced with sharp gravel, our grandson fell and got pretty scrapped up. It just wasn't kid friendly. They did have a play area but even walking on the sharp jagged rocks was difficult for all of us. Also it was very disappointing that they had removed a huge tree stump that you could walk into, we were looking forward to taken our annual picture of the grand kids in the stump but it was gone. It was a very disappointing trip we won't be returning. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The park is still being modernized, except they did not go to 50 amp when re-wiring! Sites are mixed season/permanent and transient, making it really tight to get into a site for a short stay. Future plans call for a separation of transients, putting them closer to the main road into the village. Overall, park is clean, well-managed, with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Wi-Fi works well in some areas. Lots of rabbits, birds, mountain scenery. Of the RV parks in the area, it's the nicest, and easiest in which to park and leave. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park has gotten some bad reviews in the past, but seems to have improved a lot. There are a large number of permanent or seasonal residents, some who own their sites, but everything is neat and tidy. The sites graveled with some mature trees and the entire property is surrounded by trees. There is a miniature golf course and they are adding a hot tub. Free wifi is available but the signal was weak and performance was spotty. The managers were very helpful in solving a couple of small problem. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park has been completely remodeled. Majority of sites are gravel and uninteresting. Nice playground area. Bad Wi-Fi. Showers are coin operated. Bathrooms have not been remodeled. We would not stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Scary. Old trailers that look like they have been there for years - permanents? Muddy - sewer backed up - messy grounds - ghetto like. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The campground is need of a lot of work. The sites are not very level and when it rains as it did when we were there it is a mudhole. The washrooms looked clean and adequate but were not heated and therefor unusable when we visited. There are other campgrounds in the area that looked very nice and next time we are in the area we will stay in one of those. I paid $13 for the night because I'm cheap and had a half price coupon and I still felt I paid too much. We camped here in a Motorhome.
