There are few mosquitos here. The ants all eat them. They do come out in the evening, as with most places, but I never encountered one during the day. I can see some other reviewers did not enjoy the ants. There's a lot of them, so take your pick I suppose. I did not mind them, personally.
This campground is exquisitely maintained by the husband and wife who manage it. They take pride in their care of the place and it shows. The grass is cut, the trees are trimmed, the grounds are raked, and the flush toilet bathrooms are spotless.
The place is also completely overlooked by tourists and mostly empty but for the locals. On a mid-august Saturday afternoon I counted 16 rigs in the park out of 50 sites. All the sites are well spaced apart, and the ones in back are the emptiest. It's fairly tree shaded, and it's also completely affordable. This place is a keeper.
I almost feel bad giving it only 4 stars, but I do like to leave room for that 5th star. There's a nice lake here and a boat launch, but the actual campsites generally all feature a view of the trees. The hiking opportunities are limited due to the park being small, unless you are keen on bushwhacking ancient extended routes. The park design also makes it tough for big rigs to maneuver, so be aware of that. There's no sinks or hot water or showers that might be found at a more premium park either, though that tends to come with added cost and crowds.
In all, this place is a gem. It's quiet, it's cheap, and well taken care of. It lacks the punch of a more central stop on a big road trip, but it is well worth spending...
Read moreWe stayed at Beaumont last August. At the time of arrival, all the main campsites were full except for the campsites right on the open pathway but on the lake. I believe the spots are called T1 - T5 on the map for tents only. They are slightly unconventional due to the openess of it, but we ended up loving it. We had access right to the lake, fairly close to the washrooms, and the AMAZING view of the sunsets on the lake! The ranger and his wife were exceptionally friendly and were accommodating. They seemed like two very cool people. We had service and internet connection. My friend had to go to town for a piece for her lantern and Fraser Lake is less than 10 minutes away. We stopped in at the Fields and loaded up on sweet deals. We will definitely be camping at Beaumont...
Read moreThe good. Great staff, nice big sites that are fairly level, New playground equipment, nice lake, clean tables. The bad. Low water pressure. Some water stations not working. Beach is very small. Outhouses not very clean...black widow spiders found in mens neat side 47. The ugly. Thrasher ants are everywhere. Warnings about disturbing their best and activities posted. Not aggressive but believe me the bite. Bite not lasting like fire ants but annoying. Don't leave anything on ground. We wouldn't let kids play on beach because it was infested with these ants. Can't take a step without walking on ants anywhere in park, except...
