Great place for an easy backcountry experience! Only a short 4km hike in (50m elevation change) and very well maintained. Beautiful views of Barrier Lake and the surrounding mountains. Has bear lockers, a pit toilet and a group fire ring.

We used a canoe to get to this campsite, but it is also accessible by foot. It is 4ish km easy hike to the site and a 15-20 minute canoe trip is the weather is nice. There are 8 tent pads, one fire pit, one outhouse and 4 picnic tables. There are no services at the site other than what was mentioned. Water from the creek is used if you haven't packed in your own water, which they advise should be boiled. The view of the lake from the campsites is amazing. There are some nice hiking trails nearby and of course you can do water sports on the lake. We went with our 4yo and had a great time. As it was out first time tenting with him we were only there one night, but it would have been okay to do more.

Not the most backcountry of backcountry campsites but a good introduction to someone who's interested in a taste of the backcountry. Access to the site is easy in case one needs to bail and the use of a canoe makes it even easier. Took my friend and his son to this site and they loved it.

If you have a large group of people and like sharing one community fire pit, then this is for you, however, if you are a single family or small group and you want to be more than 10 feet away from someone else's tent, and have your own fire, look elsewhere for a campsite.

Great spot to camp minus the electrical wires. We went in January and no one in site. Nice tent pad with a view of the lake and fire-pit in the common area. Easy hike in so you can afford some extra food if you like. Bear lockers included by the fire pit and plenty of benches/picnic tables. Would recommend for beginners but again the electrical wires were an eye sore just outside camp. There is a small hike you can do further away from the parking lot where we snowshoed for a couple kilometres but wires the whole way (i believe it eventually leads to Ribbon Creek).
