We had a family reunion at the park. The pool was amazing. Everyone had a wonderful time. We would recommend this location for family gatherings. They have everything tent sites, trailer sites, beautiful cabins and park model rentals. Clean shower and washroom facilities. We definitely plan on returning. Thank you Fairview staff and owners for making our family reunion special.

We had a wonderful stay at Fairview’s cottage rental! The park was very hospitable, and the cottage itself was clean, spacious, welcoming, and felt like home. The entire park was well-kept and felt very safe, which made it perfect for our young family. The staff were professional and friendly, and it was clear how much care and responsibility they put into looking after both the guests and the park. The pool was such a bonus, and the easy access to the river for kayaking and fishing made it an unforgettable summer experience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! We’re already looking forward to coming back next year!

We had an amazing time this past weekend taking our son camping for the first time. Fairview is an amazing campground with beautiful views and clean friendly environment. Everyone was so nice and kind, everything was clean, and the owner is a phone call or quick walk to the office away if you need anything. I would highly suggest this campground for anyone wanting a relaxing getaway. We will 100% be returning. Thank you for the amazing experience.

My sister booked this place for us. It is really cute, we loved it. We arrived really late and the lady at the front desk stayed open a little longer and waited for us. It was very sweet. Everything was clean, and we had a spot next to a really cute little creek.

We were in a pull thru campsite next to the washrooms and along side of the creek. We had five grandchildren (my son also rented a site) and during a campfire heard a loud noise. The little ones were thrilled to discover it was a beaver swimming in the creek! The whole park is spotless and well kept. The pool was clean and the water pristine. We have travelled across Canada and I would highly recommend this park. Easy check in. Very pleasant staff (especially the young lady who always had a smile). Will definitely be back.
