Hoodoo Creek Campground Introduce

Welcome to Hoodoo Creek Campground, a part of the Campgrounds & RV Parks category, nestled within the breathtaking Yoho National Park in Columbia-Shuswap, British Columbia, Canada. Located at V0A 1L0, this campground offers a serene environment for nature enthusiasts and travelers seeking a peaceful retreat.

Hoodoo Creek Campground is described by visitors as both stunning and spacious, characterized by a wide grassy field with gravel roads. Camping lots are conveniently spread out along the sides and within the field, providing ample space for tents and potentially smaller RVs, although specific RV amenities are not mentioned.

As a primitive campground, Hoodoo Creek does not offer running water. However, it provides relatively clean restrooms with pit toilets for your convenience. One of the notable features is the availability of free firewood, although a fire permit costing $11 is required for campfires.

While the picnic tables are noted to be worn and weathered with chipped paint and splinters, the campground is generally considered a good option, especially for short overnight stays. Many appreciate its quiet atmosphere, particularly until the late afternoon or early evening.

A significant advantage of Hoodoo Creek Campground is its beautiful surroundings, offering picturesque views of the mountains. For added safety, especially against wildlife, the campground provides bear-safe food lockers. Visitors planning to use these are advised to bring their own locks.

With an approximate cost of $17 per night (based on customer reviews, possibly subject to change and an honor pay system may be in place), Hoodoo Creek Campground offers an affordable option for experiencing the natural beauty of Yoho National Park. While there may be limited shade, arriving early can help secure a spot near the tree line for some relief from the sun. Whether you are passing through or planning a brief nature escape, Hoodoo Creek Campground provides a basic yet rewarding camping experience.

For what it’s worth, it is both a stunning and spacious campground. For $17.50 a night, it’s basically a wide grassy field with some gravel roads. There are some camping lots spread out along the sides as well as some situated in the middle of the field. It is a primitive campground so there is no running water, however, there are relatively clean restrooms and free firewood (with a $11 fire permit). The picnic tables do need some work since they look worn out and weathered. The paint is chipped in several places, and there are splinters along the edges. Otherwise, this campground is good for a short one night stay.

Great spot to stay the night on the road! I think it was around 17$ per night with an honor pay system. It got busy at night with people stopping for some sleep but until 6-7pm it was pretty quiet. (Labor day weekend) Theres not a lot of shade but it you get there early you can find a couple spots near the tree line where there's a bit of shade from the trees. They also have bear safe food lockers where you can keep your food at night so bring a lock if you plan to use those. They have clean washrooms with put toilets. (but they weren't gross like some) All in all this was a great place to camp for the night with beautiful views of the mountains around you. Enjoy!

Stayed one Saturday night in August arriving at 8pm. Several spots open though a few more campers came in after me. Beautiful views, picnic table, great for one night. Good value $17.50 per night.

Bare bones campground, no power or water. But it's far enough off the highway that it's quiet, and the view is nice. No real shade as all the trees are located around the perimeter. It's a good alternative when the campground in Yoho is full, but it's about 20 km or so away.
