Provincial Campground Reservation Procedures

The Provincial Government handed campground operations over to private operators a few years ago so there is no central reservation service. Campsite reservations can typically be made between the first business day in May and the Labour Day weekend.

Reservations may be made starting no later than the first business day in May of each year (May 3, 1999) by calling the appropriate reservation office from 8:15 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday.
