What visitors say
Rainey Creek Campground is a forested municipal campground on the edge of Stewart, beside the creek and within walking distance of the town centre. Travellers describe beautiful scenery and a lush, jungle-like setting typical of the coast.
The showers are the big talking point: several road-trippers call them the best they've had in weeks, and they're included in the price. Washrooms are clean, there's a water fill station, firewood, Wi-Fi and a separate tenting area with power outlets and a covered eating area. Sites have power but no water or sewer. Recent visitors praise the current host for a warm welcome and accurate local tips, and say staff are available around the clock.
It's a practical base for exploring Stewart and nearby attractions, and one visitor recommends the town museum. It suits both tenters and RVers who don't need full hookups.
The main complaints are overgrowth and bugs. A couple of recent visitors found sites overgrown with low branches and power posts hidden in bushes, and one was first put in a site too small for their rig. Mosquitoes can be intense. If you have a large RV, ask for a site that fits before you back in.
