Campgrounds near Saint-Alphonse
Saint-Alphonse is a small inland municipality in the Baie-des-Chaleurs sector of Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula, in the MRC de Bonaventure. The village sits about 10 km inland from Route 132, the highway that loops around the Gaspésie region, in forested terrain north of Caplan. It serves as a quiet base for RV travellers touring the Gaspésie coast.
Most camping options sit along the Route 132 corridor between Caplan, New Richmond, Bonaventure, and New Carlisle, all within a short drive of the village. Camping Ruisselet, in Caplan, is perched on cliffs on the eastern side of Baie-des-Chaleurs and works well as a base for day trips to Carleton-sur-Mer, the Chics-Chocs, New Richmond, and Bonaventure. Camping De La Pointe-Taylor, in New Richmond, is part of the Parc régional de la Petite-Cascapédia and offers serviced and unserviced sites plus a seaside RV parking area. Camping Le Moulin Rouge sits on the coast near New Carlisle, while Le Camping and Camping Murraywood round out the nearby choices across the Baie-des-Chaleurs area. Together they cover full-service RV sites, partial hookups, and unserviced tent areas.
Things to do near Saint-Alphonse
The headline attraction in the village itself is the Domaine des Chutes du Ruisseau Creux, a network of trails leading to a waterfall on the Ruisseau Creux. From there, RV travellers typically day-trip along the Baie-des-Chaleurs coast. New Richmond, about fifteen minutes south, has the Pointe Taylor park with hiking and biking trails, beach access, a bistro, and nautical rentals. Bonaventure offers the Bioparc de la Gaspésie and the Musée acadien du Québec, plus tubing and salmon fishing on the Bonaventure River. Carleton-sur-Mer, the Chics-Chocs mountains, and the rest of the Gaspésie loop are reachable as longer outings. The region is also known for trails, salmon rivers, and local producers and artisans, including cider makers and microbreweries along Route 132.

-5° / -15°C 90 mmFreezing and snowy; campgrounds closed
The camping season in the Baie-des-Chaleurs is short and tightly seasonal. Most private campgrounds in the area open in late May and close in late September, with Camping Ruisselet and Camping De La Pointe-Taylor running on roughly that schedule. Outside that window, sites are closed and on-site services unavailable.
June through August is peak season, with the warmest days, longest evenings, and the most reliable weather for the beach and rivers. Bookings fill quickly for July and the Quebec construction holiday in late July, and serviced RV sites in waterfront campgrounds often sell out weeks ahead. Early September is quieter and cooler, with fall colour arriving through late September and October. Winters are freezing and snowy, with frozen ground and closed campgrounds, so RV travel through Saint-Alphonse is not practical from November through April.
How to book campgrounds near Saint-Alphonse
Private campgrounds around Saint-Alphonse handle their own reservations directly, by phone, email, or through their own websites. Camping De La Pointe-Taylor can be contacted directly at (418) 392-2400 or via its official website, and many regional grounds are also listed on the Camping Québec and Tourisme Gaspésie directories. For peak July and August dates with serviced RV hookups, contact the campground several weeks in advance. For day trips into Sépaq territory, including Parc national de la Gaspésie and Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé, Sépaq strongly recommends purchasing daily access online or buying an annual pass to guarantee entry and a smoother arrival; daily access can be purchased up to 30 days before a visit.
What to expect near Saint-Alphonse
Expect a rural, French-speaking region where English is generally understood at tourist-facing campgrounds and visitor centres. Roads in the area are paved and RV-friendly along Route 132, but interior roads to Saint-Alphonse and to backcountry trailheads can be narrow with limited shoulders. Cell coverage is reliable in the coastal villages and patchy in the forested interior. Coastal campgrounds such as Camping de la Pointe Taylor offer water, electric service including 50 amp, sewer hookups, dump stations, restrooms, showers, and are pet friendly. Black flies and mosquitoes are heaviest from late May through June. Groceries, fuel, and propane are available in Caplan, New Richmond, and Bonaventure.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Saint-Alphonse, QC
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Saint-Alphonse, QC?
RV rental in Saint-Alphonse is affordable compared to busier coastal Gaspesie towns. On RVezy, travel trailers typically run $90 to $175 CAD per night, campervans $130 to $220, and Class C motorhomes $175 to $275, with the highest rates during peak July and August. For a cheap RV rental in Saint-Alphonse, book in June or early September when prices often drop and the Baie-des-Chaleurs is still warm. Tip: filter by Instant Book and look for hosts offering generous included kilometres. Many Bonaventure-area owners include a starter kit with linens, propane, and kitchenware that saves prep time before hitting Route 132.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Saint-Alphonse,%20QuebecWhat kind of driver's license do I need to rent an RV in Saint-Alphonse?
Good news: a regular Class 5 (passenger vehicle) licence from the Société de l'assurance automobile du Québec (SAAQ) is all you need to drive nearly every RV listed in Saint-Alphonse. No special RV endorsement or commercial licence is required for standard motorhomes, campervans, travel trailers, or fifth wheels. Visiting from another province, the U.S., or overseas? Your home driver's licence works in Quebec; international visitors should also carry an International Driving Permit (IDP) from their local auto club. All RVezy renters must be 25 or older and complete a quick ID verification through the platform before pickup. It's faster than booking a hotel.
saaq.gouv.qc.ca/en/drivers-licences/drivers-licence-classesIs insurance and roadside assistance included when I rent an RV in Saint-Alphonse?
Yes, every RVezy booking in Saint-Alphonse includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you are covered from pickup to drop-off. The protection plan covers eligible damage to the RV and provides financial peace of mind on remote stretches of Route 132 or up in the Chic-Chocs. During checkout you choose your coverage tier so you can match it to your comfort and budget. If a tire goes flat near New Richmond or you need a tow near Bonaventure, one phone call gets help dispatched. This is purpose-built coverage for peer-to-peer RV travel, not traditional auto insurance.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my Saint-Alphonse RV trip?
Booking is low-risk: RVezy sets the cancellation policy centrally, not the host, and it includes a money-back grace period after booking so you have time to confirm plans. After that window, refunds depend on how far in advance you cancel. If a host cancels, RVezy refunds you or provides travel credit so your Saint-Alphonse RV trip stays on track. Because the policy is standardized, you do not need to negotiate with individual hosts. Tip: book early to lock in the best Bonaventure-area rigs for July, then use the grace window to finalize campground reservations at Parc national de la Gaspesie or along Baie-des-Chaleurs with confidence.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Saint-Alphonse RV rental?
Yes, pet-friendly RV rentals in Saint-Alphonse are easy to find on RVezy. Toggle the Pet-Friendly filter to see rigs whose owners welcome dogs, and message the host to confirm any pet fee. Once you are rolling, the Baie-des-Chaleurs region is one of the more dog-friendly stretches of Quebec, and several sectors of Parc national de la Gaspesie permit leashed dogs on specific trails (check Sepaq's current pet rules before arrival). Tip: ask about a fenced yard or grassy area for delivery setups. Most Saint-Alphonse hosts are rural property owners and tend to be very accommodating with well-behaved pets.
sepaq.com/pq/gas/index.dot?language_id=1Can the RV be delivered to my campground in the Saint-Alphonse area?
Yes, RV delivery in Saint-Alphonse is one of the easiest ways to start your trip, especially if you are flying into Bonaventure (YBG) or driving from Quebec City without a tow vehicle. Many local hosts will deliver to nearby campgrounds such as Camping Plage Beaubassin in Carleton-sur-Mer, Camping Bonaventure, or Camping Carleton-sur-Mer, set up and level the RV, connect hookups, and walk you through every system before they leave. Use the Delivery filter when searching, then message the host with your destination to confirm the fee, typically based on kilometres from Saint-Alphonse. It is a great option for first time renting an RV without ever driving a big rig yourself.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Saint-Alphonse,%20QuebecHow does mileage work, and how far can I realistically drive on a Saint-Alphonse RV trip?
Most hosts in Saint-Alphonse offer a generous daily kilometre allotment (commonly around 200 km/day), and some list RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is ideal for the full Gaspesie loop. From Saint-Alphonse you can reach Perce in roughly 2.5 hours (about 210 km), Forillon National Park in about 3 hours (around 250 km), and Parc national de la Gaspesie's Mont-Albert sector in about 2 hours (around 170 km). Kouchibouguac National Park in New Brunswick is about 3.5 hours away. The full Route 132 peninsula loop is roughly 885 km. Tip: filter for unlimited kilometres if you are planning the whole loop and skip the math entirely.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106154-Understanding-mileage-and-generator-usageWhere are the best campgrounds near Saint-Alphonse, QC?
You have great options within 45 minutes of Saint-Alphonse: Camping Plage Beaubassin in Carleton-sur-Mer (beachfront sites with full hookups), Camping Bonaventure (riverside, family-run, near the Acadian village), Camping Carleton-sur-Mer (at the base of Mont Saint-Joseph), and Camping de Paspebiac on the Baie-des-Chaleurs. For mountain scenery, drive about 2 hours north to Parc national de la Gaspesie and book through Sepaq, where the Mont-Albert sector offers RV-friendly sites. Tip: the best campgrounds near Saint-Alphonse on the water sell out fast for late July, so reserve as soon as Sepaq opens summer bookings in mid-January.
sepaq.com/pq/gas/index.dot?language_id=1When is the best time to visit Saint-Alphonse in an RV?
Mid-June through mid-September is the sweet spot for an RV trip from Saint-Alphonse. July and August bring the warmest weather with daytime highs typically in the low 20s C and nights in the low teens, the warmest swimming on the Baie-des-Chaleurs, and full campground services. Late September delivers fall colours in the Chic-Choc Mountains, fewer crowds, and lower nightly rates. May and October are doable but cooler, often 5 to 15 C, with some campgrounds closed. Local tip: late August is excellent, when sea water peaks and the Festival Acadien de Bonaventure brings the region to life.
climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_normals/index_e.htmlI have never driven an RV before. Will I be okay?
You will do great, and Saint-Alphonse is an easy place to learn. Roads through the Baie-des-Chaleurs are wide, traffic is light outside town centres, and Route 132 is well-paved with generous shoulders. Every RVezy host gives you a hands-on walkthrough at pickup that covers driving, hookups, propane, slide-outs, and the dump station, so you never leave guessing. Start with a smaller Class C motorhome rental in Saint-Alphonse or a campervan if you are nervous about size. Tip: do a short practice loop on Route 132 between Saint-Alphonse and New Carlisle before tackling the climbs into the Chic-Chocs. Within an hour you will feel comfortable behind the wheel.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat happens if something breaks down during my RV trip from Saint-Alphonse?
You are never alone on the road. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance, so a flat tire on Route 132, a dead battery at a Bonaventure campground, or a tow from the Chic-Chocs is one phone call away. The RVezy support team is reachable before, during, and after your trip, and your host is usually just a text away for quick questions about the rig's quirks. Cell coverage along the Baie-des-Chaleurs corridor is generally solid, but it can be patchy inland near Parc national de la Gaspesie, so download offline maps. Tip: save your roadside assistance number and a photo of the RV's VIN before leaving the driveway in case signal drops.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take a Saint-Alphonse RV rental into New Brunswick or the U.S.?
Yes, an RV road trip from Saint-Alphonse into New Brunswick is popular and allowed: Campbellton is just over the J.C. Van Horne Bridge (about 1 hour 15 minutes away), and the Acadian Coast and Kouchibouguac National Park are within easy reach. Cross-border travel into the United States is permitted on most listings, but always confirm with your host before booking since coverage and host approval vary. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals. Tip: bring your passport, the RV's registration, and your booking confirmation, and share your route with the host during checkout so the trip is documented in advance.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityHow much should I budget for fuel on a Saint-Alphonse RV trip?
Fuel is the biggest variable, but it is manageable. Expect Class C motorhomes to get roughly 14 to 18 L/100km, campervans 11 to 14 L/100km, and tow setups 16 to 22 L/100km. Quebec gas prices in the Gaspesie typically run a few cents higher than Montreal. For a 7-day, 900 km loop around the peninsula in a Class C, budget roughly $250 to $350 CAD in fuel at current pump prices. Tip: fill up in larger towns like New Richmond, Bonaventure, or Sainte-Anne-des-Monts rather than tiny villages, and check Quebec's posted retail price ceilings before departure for an accurate estimate.
regie-energie.qc.ca/en/consumers/petroleum-products/retail-pricesHow far in advance should I book campgrounds around Saint-Alphonse?
For Quebec's provincial parks (Sepaq), reserve as early as possible: Sepaq typically opens summer reservations in mid-January, and the best riverside sites at Parc national de la Gaspesie and waterfront sites at Parc national de Miguasha sell out within hours. Private campgrounds like Camping Plage Beaubassin and Camping Bonaventure usually open bookings in late winter and fill for July and August by spring. For shoulder-season RV camping in Saint-Alphonse during June or September, you can often book just a few weeks out. Tip: build your itinerary backward from the one or two campgrounds you really want, then fill in flexible nights. Many RV-friendly municipal campgrounds along Baie-des-Chaleurs also accept walk-ins.
sepaq.com/reservation/index.dot?language_id=1What are the local driving conditions like around Saint-Alphonse?
Driving around Saint-Alphonse is refreshingly stress-free. Route 132, the main highway that hugs the Baie-des-Chaleurs, is two lanes, well-maintained, and lightly trafficked outside July long weekends. Watch for moose and deer at dawn and dusk, especially on Route 299 if you head north through the Réserve faunique des Chic-Chocs toward Sainte-Anne-des-Monts (that road climbs to about 600 m and is signed for wildlife). Winter driving is for experienced RVers only; snow and freezing rain are common from late November through March. Pro tip: check Québec 511 before every leg, watch for the 3,000 kg brake-inspection signs at major descents, and downshift early going into Carleton-sur-Mer from the west.
quebec511.info/en/default.aspxWhat hookups, dump stations, and water fills will I find near Saint-Alphonse?
You are well covered. Most Baie-des-Chaleurs campgrounds, including Camping Plage Beaubassin (Carleton-sur-Mer), Camping Bonaventure, Camping Carleton-sur-Mer, and Camping de Paspebiac, offer 2- and 3-service sites with 15/30-amp electricity, potable water, and sewer hookups. Dump stations are available at several municipal sites along Route 132, and Sepaq's Parc national de la Gaspesie has a service area near its Discovery Centre. Most campgrounds also have laundry and Wi-Fi at variable speeds. Tip: top up fresh water before heading into the Chic-Choc Mountains, where serviced sites become rare, and carry a 30-to-15-amp adapter since older sites occasionally only offer 15-amp pedestals.
sepaq.com/pq/gas/index.dot?language_id=1What is actually inside the RVs I can rent in Saint-Alphonse?
More than you might expect. A typical motorhome rental in Saint-Alphonse includes a queen or king bed, a convertible dinette or bunk beds (sleeping 4 to 7 total), a full kitchen with stove, microwave, fridge/freezer, and sink, a bathroom with toilet and shower, climate control (furnace and roof AC), and seatbelted seating for travel. Many rigs add a TV, Bluetooth stereo, outdoor speakers, an awning, and a generator or solar setup for off-grid nights. Wi-Fi is usually BYO via a phone hotspot, since rural Gaspesie cell service is variable. Tip: each listing on RVezy shows exactly what is onboard, including how many seatbelts (your maximum legal passenger count), so match your family size to the right rig before booking.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Saint-Alphonse,%20QuebecWhat add-ons can I get with my Saint-Alphonse RV rental?
Plenty of useful extras. Common host add-ons include linen and towel kits, kitchen packages, bikes or kayaks, outdoor chairs and tables, BBQ grills, portable generators, fishing gear, and pet kits. Some Bonaventure-area hosts also rent paddleboards that are perfect for the calm waters of the Baie-des-Chaleurs. For pickup and dropoff, you typically meet at the host's property in or near Saint-Alphonse, or pay a delivery fee to have the rig brought to your campground. Add-on pricing and mileage policies are set per listing, so check before booking. Tip: bundling delivery, setup, and a linen kit often costs less than a hotel night and saves hours of prep.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Saint-Alphonse,%20QuebecHow does payment and the security deposit work when I rent an RV in Saint-Alphonse?
It is simple and secure. You pay through RVezy with a credit card at booking, your money is held safely, and the host is paid after pickup, which protects both sides. The refundable security deposit is separate from your booking payment and is pre-authorized on your card before the trip, then released after dropoff assuming no damage beyond what the protection plan covers. To avoid issues: do a thorough walkthrough with the host at pickup, take date-stamped photos and videos of the interior and exterior, and report anything unusual right away through the RVezy app. Tip: keep receipts for fuel and propane refills, since many hosts ask that tanks be returned at the same level.
