Camper reviews for E. C. Manning Provincial Park

Manning is the Best

Have been camping here for 30 years and the sites are awesome. The park if beautiful. Lots of places to hike. The lake is fun, a little cold, but still fun.

The best campsite in BC

We adore Manning Park and Lightning Lakes for so many reasons! It's a special spot for our family, but we love that it's family friendly, accessible from the Lower Mainland and the Okanagan areas of BC, has a lot of sites, and the area is great to explore. You almost always need to book ahead, and Campnab actually helped us last year "nab" a spot here for the BC-day long weekend.

Here are just a few more perks:

  • Lightning Lake is a delight, super-swimmable, and the chain lake areas are fun to explore by kayak, canoe or paddle board

  • If you camp, you'll always have a parking spot when it's the weekend, since the day-use area fills up quite quickly, plus you also have access to a little private beach

  • There are hikes and outdoor activities galore in Manning Park - our favs are Windy Joe, Skyline Trail and Frosty

The campsite itself is clean, the staff are really friendly, and has wood for fires. The photo is from the day-use area. If you can't get a site here, check out Mule Deer, Hampton or Coldspring, or the LL small loop!
