Camping near West Vancouver
West Vancouver sits on the North Shore of Burrard Inlet, wedged between the Coast Mountains and the Pacific. It is a practical launch point for RV travellers: Highway 1 crosses the Lions Gate Bridge into the district, and the Sea to Sky Highway (Hwy 99) runs north from here toward Squamish and Whistler. Most nearby campgrounds fall into two groups: private urban RV parks with full hookups close to Vancouver attractions, and provincial park campgrounds along Howe Sound and in the surrounding hills.
Capilano RV Park in West Vancouver is the closest option to downtown, positioned near the mouth of the Capilano River and within minutes of Stanley Park, the Capilano Suspension Bridge, and Grouse Mountain. To the north, Porteau Cove Provincial Park sits on the eastern shore of Howe Sound, 38 km north of Vancouver, reached by following Hwy 99 north from West Vancouver, offering waterfront sites.
Further east, Burnaby Cariboo RV Park and Campground Vancouver and Anmore Camp and RV Park serve travellers who want a base closer to Burnaby and Port Moody. Klahanie Campground and RV Park, in Squamish, works well for trips continuing up the Sea to Sky corridor.
Things to do near West Vancouver
The North Shore stacks attractions close together. From Capilano RV Park, guests can reach the Capilano Suspension Bridge, Grouse Mountain gondola, and the seawall at Stanley Park within a short drive or transit ride. Ambleside Beach, Lighthouse Park, and Cypress Provincial Park sit in West Vancouver itself, with trails ranging from stroller-friendly loops to alpine hikes.
Porteau Cove is one of the area's main draws for on-water activity: one of the park's main attractions is the tidal and inter-tidal marine life of the foreshore, and a scuba diving area has been developed with sunken ships and artificial reefs. The park is also a popular area for stargazing.
Continuing north on Hwy 99, day trips from Klahanie Campground and RV Park reach Shannon Falls, the Stawamus Chief, and the Sea to Sky Gondola on foot.

How to book campgrounds near West Vancouver
Reservation systems differ by campground type. Porteau Cove Provincial Park is 100% reservable through camping.bcparks.ca. Due to popularity and size of the campground, BC Parks has implemented a maximum stay policy of 7 nights in the peak season at this park, from June 15 to Labour Day inclusive. Campsite reservations can be made up to three months prior to the arrival date, and sites do fill quickly.
Private parks accept direct bookings. Capilano RV Park, Burnaby Cariboo RV Park and Campground Vancouver, Anmore Camp and RV Park, and Klahanie Campground and RV Park each take reservations through their own websites or by phone.
Summer weekends fill early across the corridor. Book Sea to Sky sites several months ahead, and check for cancellations closer to the date if the desired weekend is full.
What to expect at West Vancouver campgrounds
Site character varies widely. Capilano RV Park is an urban, full-service park with tightly spaced pads offering electrical, water, and sewer hookups plus laundry, showers, and Wi-Fi. Access involves narrow streets and Lions Gate Bridge traffic, which is heaviest at rush hour.
Porteau Cove features 44 campsites with electric hook-ups, 16 walk-in sites, a shower and washroom building, a sani-station, day-use picnic areas, and 2 boat launches. Adjacent train tracks are active and occasional noise disturbance may occur.
Expect maritime weather: cool nights even in summer, and rain gear useful in any shoulder month. Sites at Klahanie Campground and RV Park in Squamish are treed and hilly, while Anmore Camp and RV Park and Burnaby Cariboo RV Park and Campground Vancouver offer more conventional serviced pads closer to the eastern suburbs.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near West Vancouver, BC
How much does it cost to rent an RV in West Vancouver, BC?
RV rental in West Vancouver is more affordable than most people expect, especially when you compare it to North Shore hotel rates. On RVezy you'll typically see campervan rentals around $150 to $225 per night, travel trailers from $120 to $200, and larger Class A or Class C motorhomes between $225 and $400 per night. Prices peak from late June through August when Whistler and Sea to Sky traffic is busiest. To score a cheap RV rental in West Vancouver, aim for May, September, or early October when weather is still great and rates often drop 20 to 30 percent. Pro tip: book mid-week pickups, since many hosts offer better mileage allowances and discounts on Tuesday or Wednesday starts.
westvancouver.ca/visiting-discoveringWhat license do I need to rent an RV in West Vancouver?
Good news: your regular Class 5 driver's licence (or equivalent from your home country) is all you need to rent an RV in West Vancouver. No special RV licence, air brake endorsement, or commercial licence is required for the motorhomes, campervans, and trailers listed on RVezy, since they all fall under standard passenger vehicle rules in British Columbia. You'll need to be 25 or older, and RVezy verifies your ID securely through the platform during booking. Visiting from outside Canada? Bring your home licence plus an International Driving Permit (under $25 from your local auto club) and you're set. Most first-time renters in West Van are surprised how quick the verification process is, usually wrapped up the same day.
icbc.com/driver-licensing/visit-move-bc/Visit-BCWhat protection comes with my West Vancouver RV rental?
Every RV rental in West Vancouver booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can head up the Sea to Sky Highway with real peace of mind. The protection plan covers most physical damage to the vehicle during your trip, which is reassuring if a branch falls on the roof at Porteau Cove or a rock chips the windshield near Squamish. You choose your coverage tier during checkout (RVezy offers multiple levels), not the host, so you can match protection to your trip and budget. While this is not traditional auto insurance, it provides significant financial protection so you can focus on the views, not the what-ifs.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my West Vancouver RV trip?
Plans change, and RVezy keeps it low-risk to book your West Vancouver RV trip. RVezy (not the host) sets the cancellation policy, and every booking includes a money-back grace period right after you book, giving you time to confirm details with your travel party. Refund eligibility after that grace period depends on how far out you are from your trip start date. You can review the full cancellation policy in the RVezy Help Center before you pay. Pro tip: if you are booking a popular August weekend, lock it in early and use the grace period as your safety net.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a West Vancouver RV rental?
Absolutely, and West Vancouver is one of the most dog-friendly corners of Metro Vancouver for an RV trip. Filter for pet-friendly RV rental in West Vancouver on RVezy to instantly see listings that welcome dogs (and sometimes cats), with hosts often providing extras like blankets or floor mats. Once you've picked up your rig, head straight to Ambleside Park's off-leash dog beach right on Burrard Inlet, or hit the leashed trails through Lighthouse Park and Cypress Provincial Park. Most local campgrounds, including Capilano River RV Park in West Van, also allow leashed pets. Pro tip: message the host before booking if you have a large breed, just to confirm any size preferences, but you'll find plenty of welcoming options.
westvancouver.ca/parks-recreation/parks-trails-beaches/dogs-parksCan the RV be delivered to me in West Vancouver?
Yes, RV delivery in West Vancouver is one of the most popular options on RVezy, and it is a game-changer if you have never driven a big rig through North Shore traffic. Many local hosts will deliver the motorhome or trailer right to your campsite at Porteau Cove, Alice Lake, or Capilano River RV Park, set up the awning and hookups, and walk you through every system before they leave. Some will even drop the RV in your driveway in Ambleside, Dundarave, or Horseshoe Bay. Delivery fees vary by host and distance and are shown on the listing. Filter for Delivery on RVezy to see your options, and message the host to confirm the drop-off address.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=West%20VancouverHow far can I drive from West Vancouver, and is there unlimited mileage?
You have incredible range from West Vancouver, with epic drives in every direction. Whistler is about 120 km up the Sea to Sky Highway (around 1.5 hours), Pemberton sits about 155 km north, Squamish is 60 km away, and the Horseshoe Bay ferry inside West Vancouver opens up Gibsons and the Sunshine Coast. Many RVezy hosts include a daily mileage allowance with a per-kilometre overage fee, and a growing number offer RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is ideal for longer Sea to Sky or Vancouver Island loops. Pro tip: filter by Unlimited Mileage on RVezy if you are planning a big road trip from West Vancouver.
www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/transportation/driving-and-cycling/traveller-information/routes-and-driving-conditions/sea-to-skyWhere can I camp near West Vancouver in my RV?
You are spoiled for choice when it comes to RV camping near West Vancouver. Capilano River RV Park, right in West Vancouver at 295 Tomahawk Avenue, is a fully serviced urban RV park minutes from Stanley Park and Grouse Mountain. Porteau Cove Provincial Park (about 40 minutes north on Highway 99) offers oceanfront sites with Howe Sound views. Alice Lake Provincial Park near Squamish has over 100 vehicle-accessible sites and four swimmable lakes. Klahanie Campground in Squamish sits near the base of the Stawamus Chief. For a change of pace, hop the Horseshoe Bay ferry and camp on the Sunshine Coast near Gibsons.
bcparks.ca/porteau-cove-park/When is the best time to visit West Vancouver in an RV?
The sweet spot for a West Vancouver RV trip is July through early September, when daytime highs sit around 22 to 24°C, rainfall drops to its annual low, and Howe Sound sparkles under long sunny days. July is historically the driest month on the coast, sometimes recording almost no rain at all. June can still be cool and showery (locals call it Juneuary), while May and late September are excellent shoulder-season picks with mild 15 to 20°C temperatures, fewer crowds, and lower rates. Winter RV trips (December to February) are absolutely doable too with a four-season rig, and you'll have Cypress Mountain skiing 20 minutes from your campsite. Pro tip: aim for late July through mid-August for the most reliable beach and hiking weather.
climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_normals/index_e.htmlI've never rented an RV before. Will I be okay driving in West Vancouver?
You've got this, and West Vancouver is actually a friendly place for first-time renting an RV. Your host will give you a full walkthrough at pickup covering the propane, water, electrical, slide-outs, and dumping, so you won't be guessing. Stick to Highway 1 and Highway 99 (the Sea to Sky), both well-maintained and clearly signed, and avoid the narrow, steep residential streets above the Upper Levels Highway. The Lions Gate Bridge has a 4.3 m height clearance that easily fits standard RVs. If big-city driving makes you nervous, book a host who offers delivery so the RV meets you at your campground. Pro tip: start with a 24-foot Class C or campervan rental in West Vancouver for your first trip, they handle just like a large van.
www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/transportation/driving-and-cycling/traveller-information/routes-and-driving-conditionsWhat happens if something goes wrong with the RV during my trip?
You are never on your own. Every RV rental in West Vancouver booked through RVezy includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, covering issues like flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, and towing, from the Lions Gate Bridge to Whistler and beyond. Your host is also your first call for any quirks specific to the rig (how the furnace cycles, where the fuses live), and most hosts respond quickly via the RVezy messaging app. RVezy customer support is available before, during, and after your trip for anything else. Pro tip: snap a photo of the breaker and fuse panel during your walkthrough so you have a reference if a fuse trips on the road.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my West Vancouver RV rental across the border into the US?
Cross-border RV trips from West Vancouver are possible with the right prep. The Peace Arch crossing at Surrey is about 50 km south, opening up Bellingham, the North Cascades, and Olympic National Park. Each host decides whether their RV can leave Canada, so you will need their written approval and confirmation that coverage extends across the border. Travel to Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals because coverage does not extend there. Pro tip: have your passport, vehicle registration, and host authorization ready at the border, and declare any food (especially fresh produce, citrus, and meat) to avoid delays at US Customs.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat's the fuel cost for an RV road trip from West Vancouver?
Fuel is the biggest variable in your budget, but it's very manageable for an RV road trip from West Vancouver. Gas prices in Metro Vancouver are among the highest in North America (typically $1.75 to $2.05 per litre), so fill up in Squamish or Pemberton where prices often run 10 to 20 cents per litre lower. Campervans and Class B rentals average 12 to 14 L/100 km, Class C motorhomes around 18 to 22 L/100 km, and big Class A rigs 25 to 30 L/100 km. A round trip to Whistler (240 km) in a Class C will run roughly $90 to $110 in fuel. Pro tip: use the GasBuddy app to spot the cheapest stations along Highway 99 before you fill.
www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/industry/natural-gas-oil/petroleum-products-pricingHow far in advance should I book a campground near West Vancouver?
Book early, because the best campgrounds near West Vancouver fill up fast. BC Parks uses a three-month rolling reservation window, meaning sites become available exactly three months before your arrival date at 7 am Pacific Time on camping.bcparks.ca. For peak summer weekends at Porteau Cove, Alice Lake, or Golden Ears, set a calendar alert and log in right at 7 am, since prime oceanfront and lakeside spots can disappear within minutes. Private parks like Capilano River RV Park accept bookings further out, especially with the 2026 FIFA World Cup matches happening in Vancouver. Pro tip: if you miss the window, use the Notify Me feature on the BC Parks site to get an email alert when a cancellation opens up.
bcparks.ca/reservations/frontcountry-camping/What are the driving conditions like on the Sea to Sky Highway from West Vancouver?
The Sea to Sky Highway (Highway 99) from West Vancouver to Whistler is one of the most scenic and well-engineered drives in North America, fully upgraded for the 2010 Olympics with wide lanes, modern guardrails, and frequent pullouts. That said, it does include sustained 7 to 8 percent grades around Britannia Beach and the Cheakamus Canyon, so drop into a lower gear in your motorhome on long descents to save your brakes. Watch for sudden weather changes, fog in the Howe Sound passes, and the occasional rockfall warning. In winter, chains or winter tires are legally required on Highway 99 from October 1 to April 30. Pro tip: stop at the Tantalus Lookout pullout (km 65) for the best Coast Mountains photo of the drive.
www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/transportation/driving-and-cycling/traveller-information/routes-and-driving-conditions/sea-to-skyWhat amenities will I find at campgrounds near West Vancouver?
Campgrounds near West Vancouver run the full spectrum, so you can pick what matches your style. Capilano River RV Park offers full hookups (30/50 amp power, water, sewer), a heated pool, hot tub, laundry, and Wi-Fi right in the city. BC Parks sites like Porteau Cove and Alice Lake have flush toilets, drinking water taps, fire pits, and sani-dump stations, but typically no individual hookups, so you'll rely on your RV's tanks and battery. Most provincial parks have a centralized dump and potable water fill near the exit. Pro tip: top off your fresh water tank before leaving West Vancouver (Capilano River RV Park sells day-use dump and fill for non-guests), since fill stations are spaced 40 to 60 km apart on Highway 99.
bcparks.ca/porteau-cove-park/What is actually inside a typical RV rental in West Vancouver?
You will be surprised how well-equipped a typical motorhome rental in West Vancouver is. Most Class C motorhomes on RVezy sleep 4 to 6 with a queen bed over the cab, a convertible dinette, a full kitchen (3-burner propane stove, fridge/freezer, microwave, sink), a wet bath with toilet and shower, a furnace, air conditioning, and often a generator for boondocking. Campervans (Class B) are more compact but still include a bed, kitchenette, and often a cassette toilet. Many rigs come with a stereo and seatbelts for every traveller. Wi-Fi varies, so confirm with the host if you need to work remotely. Pro tip: ask your host about a starter kit (bedding, kitchenware, toilet chemicals), many include it free or for a small fee.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=West%20VancouverWhat add-ons can I get with my West Vancouver RV rental?
RVezy hosts in West Vancouver offer a great range of add-ons to make your trip easier. Popular extras include bedding and linen packages, kitchen kits, camping chairs and tables, portable BBQs, bike racks, kayaks, and paddleboards (perfect for Cates Park or Deep Cove). Generators, solar panels, and extra propane tanks are common for those heading off-grid on the Sunshine Coast. Pickup is usually at the host home or a nearby meeting point; drop-off is at the same location unless you arrange a one-way with the host. Pro tip: book add-ons during checkout so the host packs everything ahead, no scrambling on pickup day.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=West%20VancouverHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment for your West Vancouver RV rental is handled securely through RVezy, never directly with the host, so your money is protected from the moment you book. You pay your full trip cost (nightly rate, fees, taxes, and chosen protection plan) at the time of booking using a credit card. A separate security deposit hold is placed on your card before pickup and released after your trip if there is no damage or extra cleaning needed. Pro tip: do a detailed walkaround video with your host at both pickup and drop-off, it is the single best way to avoid any deposit disputes and keep your trip stress-free.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I rent an RV in West Vancouver during the winter?
Yes, winter RV rental in West Vancouver is absolutely an option, and it's a hidden gem for ski trips. Many RVezy hosts list year-round, with four-season rigs featuring heated holding tanks, enclosed underbellies, propane furnaces, and shore power compatibility for plugging in at parks. Cypress Mountain is just 20 minutes from West Van, Grouse and Mount Seymour are nearby, and Whistler Blackcomb is a 1.5-hour drive up the Sea to Sky. Porteau Cove and Capilano River RV Park stay open all winter with electric and water hookups. Just plan for chains/winter tires on Highway 99 (legally required October 1 to April 30) and ask your host how to prevent freeze-ups in the fresh water lines. Pro tip: park nose-into-the-wind and you'll burn far less propane on cold nights.
