Something not right?

Description

Access road to pipeline; big open area down a grassy road. Close enough to English River (3 min walk), you can see it from the best spot to park. There's a little fire pit, shade and a few trails nearby. Big rig friendly if you don't mind a few pinstripes on the way in. Full reception.

Great spot just off TC hwy, very easy to find and nice and open. Lots of room for bigger rigs, not too much highway noise, didn’t bother us at all at night, would definitely recommend

I'm not spending the night, but it's a good spot just to let the dog out for a bit. Would camp here if I wasn't passing by mid-afternoon.

Best spot so far for my trip, quiet, we only hear the cars passing on the highway a little, flat sandy path no mud considering that there’s still a little snow. Recommend.

As described. Easy to access and calm. Would stop here again in a heartbeat.

Perfect spot for a safe boondocking overnight. Fits a few cars and pretty flat. Road a bit bumpy on the way in but short length. My 40ft RV could get in. Great option!

Vraiment bon endroit pour passer la nuit. Juste à côté de l'autoroute donc on entend les voitures passer mais on reste en plein nature et c'est très agréable. Je recommande.

Not too sure this is exactly the same place described, but perfect for the night. Looks like Crown owned land. Fire pit with wood set up next to it. Clean (I did pick up some trash that I stumbled upon). Ok cell signal (2 bars).

Le passage entre le spot et l’autoroute a été agrandi considérablement et donne accès très facilement accès à toutes les grandeurs de véhicules motorisés.

Endroit parfait!

Awesome spot! Bit of a narrow grass/dirt road to get in, but opens up big afterwards with plenty of flat spaces. Great views of the river in the morning.

Nice spot to spend the night or even more. You can have a campfire even (judging from the fire pit made by someone before we arrived. There is even firewood next to it). Dirt track but no 4x4 needed.

Beautiful spot. Small fire pit established. Perfect for our 21ft Promaster van. Dirt road on the North side of the highway to the West of the river. Large area for big rigs just off the highway, or you can follow the tracks to the right with pretty much any other vehicle to a grassy clearing on the hilltop. Looks like it's a road for access to underground cable.

As stated, easy to get in with my 32 ft TT. The road is wide enough not to touch my trailer that is 8 ft wide.

Wecamped in the back section described with our 15' RV; arrived a bit late so had to do a quick setup, but were very happy with our flat area. Beautiful views in the morning; a few fresh looking paw prints near us, which dissuaded our walk to the river (not sure if they were from a very large dog or wolf, but from checking online, they're not from a bear. Quiet enough to get a good sleep and no one else arrived during our time there.

Great and easy spot. I drove just straight past the gravel area to a big opened field.

as described. once you turn from the highway, before reach the spot, you will see a road to the left, it seems there are extra space there, in case the main one is full.

Great little spot right off the highway. The noise was fine and I felt safe with our dog and slept in a tent.

A nice grassy area just off the highway.
You have to drive in a way and then turn right at the junction and follow the grassy road down to the clearing. The original post is correct, that larger units will get a few scratches, but I wouldn’t agree that there is room for multiple units - two at the most.

We are a truck and camper pulling a 20 ft trailer and if there were other units here, it would have been difficult to turn around.

Traffic noice is quite loud but it would definitely be worse closer to the highway.
We did not hike to the river but you can sort of see it in the distance, not that far away.

Great little spot off the highway, just as described but the other posts. Very quiet, clean, small fire pit. There are some tall bushes in the trail you have to drive over, didn’t affect my minivan

Really close to the river, nice large open area for up to 4 vehicles comfortably and a little fire pit that someone has left some wood at. Was super easy to find and only a minute drive off the highway. Noise from the highway isn’t too bad but being this close you do hear it.
