This is one of the nicest campgrounds that the two RV Gypsies have ever stopped
at. It was located right off Highway 16 in the city of Telkwa, in-between
Houston and Smithers. |
The two RV Gypsies loved this campground, BUT later on, they learned from
the campground's website on the internet that it was sold to Harmony
Ridge RV Park and Guesthouse. Changes may be ok, or maybe not. |
Below are several reasons why the two RV Gypsies think
this was a great RV Park during their visit in 2015. Plus some great
photos. |
There was a free high-pressure RV Wash to clean off the front of their
RV and toad. |
The price was the same or less than other campgrounds and had more amenities. |
Fast Wi-Fi with 10 GB (and FTP access), with password: this has been
unheard of anyplace else. |
66 channels on the TV that came in clearly, including a channel with
a TV guide. |
50 amp full hook-up was available. This is not common in Canada and
even in a lot of the US. |
Hot showers, restrooms, SAUNA, plus a coin laundry in a locked building.
(get a key) |
Smoking not permitted in or around any building. |
Boat launch area into Bulkley River |
a 10-minute walking trail to Telkwa |
friendly, polite person (the owner on this date) in the small office. |
gravel/dirt roads and sites with grass at sites, picnic table in good
shape, and fire pit. |
one negative - not the fault of the campground - a few trains came by
with loud horns. |
Check-out time was 11 a.m. There was no pool, but the
two RV Gypsies do not use pools anyway, and the other Canadian campgrounds
that the two RV Gypsies have visited did not have pools either. Pets
allowed on leash, but not in the shower building. Firewood and laundry
soap for sale in the office which is open 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Quiet hours
after 10 p.m. |

The two RV Gypsies took a short walk down the hill to Bulkley River, past two very large fishing tents (they had electricity plus a big refrigerator inside each tent). Then they walked over a short bridge to see the river. |
