FORT STEELE CAMPGROUND RATES
(Contact
info is at bottom of this page)
We are a favourite place for
bicycle tours, motorcycle tours, and family get-togethers.
Call for more information.
The Rates for the Fort Steele
Campground are based on 2 people per site, with one
car or truck
per site:
Non-serviced
site is
$22.21 plus
taxes.
Power
site is
$26.75 plus
taxes. (Water included/available)
Full
service (power,
water & sewer) site is
$27.76 plus
taxes.
NOTE: The BC government is instituting a new tax effective
July 1st, 2010. The new tax, HST, adds a sales tax to
camping sites not previously there. This effectively
increases the cost of camping by 7%. This is beyond our
control! (We’re not happy about it either, but please
complain to the Government - don’t blame us!). We have
maintained our prices for three years now, and will
continue to do so, however the tax will be added beginning
July 1st.
Extra people are $1.75 plus tax IF THEY LIVE IN THE SAME
HOUSEHOLD ($5.00 per person otherwise).
(children under 2 years of age are free)
(All prices are Canadian Funds -
CASH ONLY - NO
CREDIT CARDS or BANK CARDS!)
Visa
wants to charge us 5%
PLUS a service
charge PER TRANSACTION
PLUS $9.00/month for 12 months!
Then they won't guarantee payment! I guess the banks aren't
making as much money as they want - well... we're not
supporting this!
So, it's cash only.
Weekly discount applies when you pay for 6 nights, you can
stay for 7!
NOTE: To obtain this rate, you must pay in advance. We
don’t want to chase after you!
The overnight prices include
unlimited use of the swimming pool, sani-dump, picnic
table, fire pit, (we have a fire pit on
EVERY site, not
just two for the whole place like at the Esso Campground!),
nature trails, washrooms, and showers for our REGISTERED
GUESTS!
We
no longer take reservations
Weird,
eh? In order to enjoy our summer, we have decided to
simplify our lives. One of the changes, is to stop taking
reservations. First come, first served! We enjoy our
campground, and we especially enjoy the people who stay
with us! (And there are more and more of you each
year!).
If you really, really, really, can't travel without making
a reservation - then you probably wouldn't like it
here anyway - so please find a campground that's on a
highway near a railway track somewhere! (And, if you don't
find that humorous - you probably wouldn't enjoy our place
anyway!
)
With another camping place nearby that copied our name
years ago (and even puts OUR name on THEIR website - no
wonder campers are confused!), we spend far too much time
trying to assist people in finding us as well as helping
those who, meaning to head for the other place and have
lost their way, have arrived at our campground by mistake.
If you end up at the "Esso Gas Station Campground" then you
are at the wrong place! (... or if you really, really,
really need a reservation to travel, then you'd be at the
right place!)
We do believe that only the good people will stay with us,
and we are confident that only the good people will find
us!
As we hear every day - "THIS
is a nice campground!"
Visitors
Policy: No Visitors!
And since
it’s a nice campground, it would seem that some registered
guests want to bring their friends here to visit. However,
this is a camping campground,
NOT a visitor’s
campground! If you are coming to the area and want to visit
with someone –
GO TO THEIR PLACE – don’t invite them here!
(If you want to know why we have implemented this policy,
