Anderson Creek Campground
Overview
Anderson Creek Campground offers a classic Fraser Canyon experience, tucked away in the rugged landscape of British Columbia. This park provides a quiet escape for travelers navigating the historic Gold Rush Trail. It is characterized by its rustic charm and proximity to natural water features, making it a refreshing stop for those who appreciate a more traditional camping environment over a high-density modern resort.
Location & Surroundings
Located just outside the small community of Boston Bar, the park sits along the banks where Anderson Creek meets the mighty Fraser River. The surrounding geography is defined by towering mountain cliffs and dense evergreen forests that frame the valley. It serves as a central point for exploring the Fraser Canyon corridor, a region famous for its dramatic elevation changes and significant historical landmarks from the early days of Canadian westward expansion.
Amenities & Park Features
The park accommodates a variety of travel setups, offering spacious RV sites alongside dedicated areas for traditional tenting. Guests have access to essential facilities during their stay, including:
- Clean washroom facilities and potable water access.
- Private fire pits and picnic tables at individual campsites.
- Lush, forested surroundings that provide natural privacy and shade.
A major highlight for guests is the direct creek access, which offers a peaceful soundtrack and opportunities for cooling off by the water during the summer months.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Outdoor enthusiasts will find several world-class attractions within a short drive of the campground. The iconic Hell's Gate Airtram is a primary draw, offering a breathtaking view of the canyon's most turbulent waters. History enthusiasts can walk the trails at Alexandra Bridge Provincial Park, while those looking for rugged recreation can explore various forest service roads. The area is also known for its unique geological formations and local fruit stands found further along the highway corridor.
Who This Park Is Best For
This campground is ideal for RVers who prioritize natural beauty and tranquility over resort-style luxuries. It is a perfect fit for road trippers exploring the interior of British Columbia who want a scenic, low-key home base. If you enjoy authentic outdoor experiences with the added benefit of basic onsite services, this location offers the quiet wilderness atmosphere that makes the Fraser Canyon such a memorable destination for independent travelers.

Love this place. Stayed campsite 37, the view is beatiful!!!!

While its a beautiful plateau along the river, the trees in the tenting site are extremely dangerous. We were down by the river and came back to a 20’ branch that had fallen and barely missed our car. Upon looking further there are tons of standing dead trees and widow makers. Pick your spot carefully! A couple of campsites have seemingly turned into hoarding situations. All together a lot of potential there if managment tightens things up

Great little spot for reasonable price. 3 nights 135$ with power and water. Needed longer hose to get water to back of trailer. Have sani dump but not sewer hook up at sites. Also no wifi. Bathrooms were clean and had showers. Have to prepay to reserve. Trains were too loud for one of us but I liked the rumble like a sound machine helped me sleep.

The Railroad is king ! Seriously trains filled with wood ? All night long it’s hilarious they even idle right across the way from here at 0200 hours … 46 bucks sounds cheap until you stay here !
