This park is very close to the main road and easy to find. The road to the park include 1.2 km of gravel road but it is well maintained. Available campsites are listed on the park bulletin board and there are signs on each site clearly indicating which sites are available on FCFS basis. The sites offer no services but are large, fairly level and fairly private. There is a large, new, clean, central shower house with flush toilets plus pit toilets around the park. The showers are free and have hot water. The campground is on a hillside and the roads have old, pitted pavement. The interpretive trail along a creek was well maintained with good signs that are informative and looked like new. This park has hiking and mountain bike trails with maps at the trail heads that include difficulty level.

We had a great experience at Mount Fernie Provincial Park. We spent two nights and really enjoyed ourselves. Everyone was respectful, and super quiet. The sites were well maintained and fairly large. Great cell phone reception as you are just a few minutes drive outside of town. Showers were great, clean, and we were supplied with nice warm water and good water pressure. My only criticism is the barking dogs that live near the provincial park. I think there's a property on the way up to the site that has a large dog that they clearly can't control. This is out of the Parks' control, but it was quite irritating early in the morning and late at night. We will return and book a site deeper into the park to avoid hearing this dog.

I recently visited a beautiful BC provincial park for a hiking trip. The lush greenery surrounding me was a sight to behold and it instantly made me feel more relaxed as I began my walk. The trail was peaceful, allowing me to take in the natural beauty of the surrounding area. The highlight of my hike was discovering a small river that was simply stunning. The refreshing water flowed gracefully through the rocks and trees, and I couldn't resist taking a moment to sit down and appreciate it all. Overall, it was a fantastic day filled with awe-inspiring views and a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Last year in 2017, we were coming back home & decided to camp at Mt Fernie Campground, our last camping day. We found a spot that appeared vacant & this is a non-reserved spot. We backed our RV into the site, then right away the Park Operator tells me to get out that is taken, I said that we got here first. She said that I saved it for someone else & wouldn't give me a campsite even if one was available, given your attitude. This Park Operator is a disgrace to BC Parks and we would never go to this Provincial Campground again, with her attitude. There is many other places that give first class treatment, tourism is BC's greatest income & they should have first class people...
