Description
This site has been closed due to increasing Black Bear presence and activity in and around the campsites. No Day Use or Overnight Camping permitted. (Updated June 2020). Site appears to be open, updated July 2021.
This site has 9 tent areas, tables, fire rings and 2 outhouses. Beautiful site beside the Squamish River, close to the Ashlu Creek. Very popular for fishing.
The area has a history of Black/Grizzly Bear presence. Please store food items in vehicles and pack out all garbage and refuse as there is no garbage pick-up service, and therefore no camping fees at this time.
Wheelchair accessible toilet on site.
Driving Directions: From the town of Squamish, drive North on HWY 99. Turn LEFT at Squamish Valley Road, which is across the HWY from the Alice Lake Park turn off-a sign on the left side of the HWY says 'Paradise Valley campground' at the junction as well. Stay on this road for several km's, over the train tracks, and then over a bridge which spans the Cheakamus river. The road will fork, stay left. Stay on the left fork for several km's. The pavement will end at an open gate (the start of the Squamish Nation Tree Farm License), continue on the dirt road for about 1km, and turn left, over the first bridge you see spanning the Squamish River. The site is located immediately after the bridge on the right side.

Really nice campsites. Big separate sites with picnic tables and fire pits. Two pit toilets. Saw a bear in the morning walking about. Highly recommended!

Campsite is open. Road is a bit bumpy in the last stretch but it's a nice quite campground. Only stayed one night.
