About
Stawamus Chief Park offers 52 vehicle-accessible campsites on a first come, first served basis. Campsite reservations are not accepted. Vehicle-accessible sites are not suitable for large RVs.
Sites are shaded by mature second-growth coniferous trees. There is parking for extra vehicles in the day-use parking lot, available for a fee. The gate is locked between 11 pm and 7 am during the winter season. Walk-in camping is available when the gate is locked. If there are no staff available to direct you to a site, find a site that is not occupied by equipment or a valid camping permit. Campground fees are to be paid in cash at the entrance of the campground through a self-registration envelope system.
The closest store is in Squamish, approximately a five-minute drive north on Highway 99. There are storage lockers located next to the cooking shelter. No campfires are permitted. Campsites are small and overcrowding is not permitted.
Drive-in and walk-in camping fees are $10 per person per night. Children under six years of age camp for free.
