    Location is everything in real estate and campgrounds.

    We were in the first loop as you enter the campground and the train was obvious, but not annoying. We were also in a hard-sided tear drop trailer and didn’t ever hear it at night.

    This was our third campground along this stretch of railroad and I can say it is the only one, so far, where the train uses its whistle/horn. Not sure why, but every train that goes by uses it. There must be a crossing or something nearby, but I can’t see it on the satellite imagery.

    I would image if you are staying further SW in the campground, closer to the track, the train would be much louder and possibly more annoying.

    The facilities here are decent. No where as nice as Yoho or Mt Revelstoke. But they had hot showers and a decent bathroom. There is a dedicated handicap restroom and shower. Unlike the other campgrounds, this one only has 1 dishwashing sink per bathroom.

    We arrived full of water, so we didn’t use the water sources here but they seem pretty basic. Maybe there’s a better source then what we saw?

    Like all the other campgrounds, the staff was very nice and they do interpretive shows regularly.

    Really appreciated the free showers! They were busy but we were able to just shower earlier in the day to beat the crowd. Group bear boxes might be far from some locations. Free firewood and close proximity to the Ink Pots hike!

    The campground itself is great, clean and well maintained facilities and lots of trees around. One thing that is really really a negative for us is the train. It is close proximity to train track and the train passes by maybe every hour with a super loud honk that you thought a train is about to hit you as you were sleeping. For this alone, I couldnt go back and choose this campground again.

    We love this campground for its proximity (very short walk across the road) to Johnston Canyon, nice indoor amphitheater, and wonderful staff. Unfortunately, there aren’t many showers so they’re quite used up. However they are free, so that’s a plus. We also found the sites vary wildly in terms of privacy and quality. Finally, you can often hear trains throughout the campground as the track is quite close by.
