Robson Meadows Campground

Stayed here for 2 nights during our 16 night trip in 33' RV. Very nice site and campground. Wide site spaces, with trees but not too dense or enclosed but still quite private. Quiet, can hear the train far away in the distance but not a problem. Fire wood delivered to site for $10. we were close to shower /toilet block - almost opposite our site. close walking distance to the Mount Robson Visitor Centre - out campsite and across the main road. Was lovely to see humming birds at the entrance to the campsite. free showers - warm water, clean enough for me and I'm really fussy, although I did keep my flip flops on for showering.

Visitor Centre has free good WiFi - we sat out on the back deck with a view of mount robson and had our wifi fix. Toilets at visitor centre. Visitor centre café does nice food - we had lunch there but it can be very busy especially if coaches visiting so we did have a bit of a wait to be served. Kinney Lake walk near the visitor centre. We walked from the visitor centre, along the road, which seemed never ending , we underestimated how long it would take to walk to the staring point of the walk, and ended up only walking half way to Kinney Lake.

Great campground with trees sites and privacy. Our site was large and flat. Trees meant no sun for our solar panels. No cell service. Washroom building had two showers (free). But the building is old and cramped. Desperately needs to be renovated or replaced. Plenty of outhouses. The sites in the 20’s are close to the highway so there is road noise. Best to stick with the other side of the campground if you can.

We stayed here August 14th and 15th, 2022.

We arrived without a reservation and there were plenty of sites to choose from in this large spiral arranged campground on a Monday afternoon. Through the center of the spiral is a road cutting through. Interesting design!

There were FCFS sites and then sites that were available for 1 or 2 nights only, if you come without a reservation. An attendant comes around and collects your $28 CD, cash only. You can purchase wood for $10 from the same attendant and then a truck will deliver it to your site later. The campground filled to about 75% each evening and 75% of it cleared out the next morning. Most all sites could be reserved in advance.

All sites are back in and were long, level and big rig friendly. All sites were nearly identical as far as length, space and ease of backing in. There are lots of pine trees and some blueberry, thimble berry and huckleberry bushes. There is some train noise and road noise, but not too bad the further away you are.

There are out houses, flush toilets, free showers and sinks off the back of the bathrooms for doing dishes, trash and recycling. Each site has a fire pit and a table mounted on a cement platform. Volleyball and horseshoes are located in the center of the spiral. There is a nice amphitheater and large group camp area.

There is some free, slow WIFI at the Visitor's Center across the hiway, none in the campground. There is also fuel, a diner and a gift shop across the adjacent to the Visitor Center. There are hikes out of the campground as well as hikes from the Visitor Center.

Robson Meadows is a pretty standard BC Parks campground; the sites are large and well spaced; the facilities are clean and well maintained.

There is absolutely no cell service anywhere in the vicinity (even with a WeBoost). This campground is dry camping but there is a Sani-dump and water fill across the highway behind the Visitors Center. The Visitors Center also has public wifi that extends outside the building.

The campground is near a number of trails so it's a good base to explore the park. Jasper is only an hour's drive east so a day trip is easy.

We had a lot of haze and smoke from the numerous wildfires in BC during our stay so did not get to see Mount Robson.
