Great sites at well-kept park with an excellent view. Bathrooms were clean and spacious. Plenty of clean washers and dryers. Only minor inconvenience was being on a gravel site instead of a concrete...

Was in Row A in a back in site this year. There was still plenty of room to park our vehicle in front of our motorhome. We camped at Camp Carlson Army Recreational Area in a Motorhome.

Tips from campers about Camp Carlson Army Recreational Area

  • Kim Ruggieri Fernie seems like a really fun town. We definitely want to come back, and explore more of the area.
  • AJarman Visit downtown Fernie for a bunch of restaurants, shops (mostly outdoorsy/ski shops), services and just a great walk around a historic downtown. Pick up bagels and cream cheese (or enjoy a bagel sandwich!) at Big Bang Bagels - best I've had, period. On the north side of Fernie, visit Fernie Brewing for some fantastic beer. The Fernie Visitor Centre is also super helpful with activities in the Fernie area (biking, hiking, etc). Also, if your not from BC and like wine, stopping at BC Liquour or a wine store (anywhere in the province, but there's a one or two close to downtown Fernie) to get some excellent BC wine - it's well known as world-class wine by Canadians, but doesn't get outside Canada much!
  • Johnny xxxxx Independent Grocery is the better place to shop for variety, and deli

Tip for Other Campers:

Not a lot of restaurants in town close by. Except for fast food. Youll have to drive to Elizabethtown for that.
