Bayside Campground & RV Park
A quiet, walkable campground in Sechelt on BC's Sunshine Coast with private-feeling sites and friendly hosts, but recurring complaints about dated washrooms and upkeep.
What visitors say
Bayside Campground & RV Park is in Sechelt, close enough that some guests walk or bike into town, and not far from beaches, groceries and Sunshine Coast attractions. Several campers call it one of the quietest campgrounds they've stayed at, with private sites and grounds that one recent visitor found well kept.
Hosts and staff are generally described as nice and helpful, though the office isn't always staffed and a phone number is left for contact. Sites are on the larger side, with water and power, but one guest found them uneven. Showers are coin-operated, so bring loonies.
The washrooms are the most common complaint. Recent reviews describe them as dark, old and in need of repair, with some faucets and lights not working, and an earlier visitor found both bathrooms and laundry dirty over a four-day stay and picnic tables rotting. One guest noticed odours from a landfill behind the property, and another found the water station and garbage bins a long walk from their site.
A 2024 reviewer reported a dead alder falling into a neighbouring site after heavy rain; staff moved them and cut the hazard trees down. A solo tent camper was also unhappy to be placed beside the playground without a choice of site. Ask for a site away from the play area if you want quiet, and check the trees around your site.
