Sooke River Campsite

Great friendly staff. Very clean!

The couple running it are amazing.

This place as I understand is basically a campground for tent campers / RVs but in addition there are 3 cabins and I stayed in one of them on the last night of my 5 day Easter Mega Long Weekend Cycling Tour of Salt Spring & Vancouver Island, April 2019. Very solid facilities given just a rustic cabin. Been in other cabins before and prefer this much easily over others. Surprisingly clean interior with good facilities (window side radiators, movable oil heater, potable water from a tap right outside door, ample room inside, etc). Fully sheltered and maintained toilets not too far away including coin shower facilities. Firewood ready for purchase. All in all, makes for very easy family cabin camping.

Only reason for 4/5 is lack of a microwave which could easily have been managed given there was so much room and an electric kettle & stove-top were already there.

I had the opportunity to come here with my kid in the early fall when the salmon were in the river. for a small fee ($2) the staff allowed us entry to the park, with easy an accessible parking by the river. short walk down the stairs and we were able to see the amazing fish and landscapes. A lovely location, privately owned, but not cost prohibitive to enjoy!
