What reviewers say
Reviewers describe the camp as a fun, energetic experience for the whole family, with kids enjoying the lively Quebec counsellors, games, skits and special events like tie-dye and dance night. The Living Forest Campground location, with its beach, river, canoes and ice cream shack, is praised. One reviewer found it very crowded in late July and felt there was little French-language service and a less welcoming attitude toward Quebecers.

Shannon B.April 2026
Our family has attended the Nanaimo camp for 2 years now. This camp is outstanding. BC Parents for French organize a group of moniteurs ("Momos") from Quebec and eastern Canada, who come to camp with whimsical names (e.g. Kaboum, Carousel, Pomme, Nomade) and an incredible creative capacity for throwing together skits, songs, chants and infectious call-and-response camp games for kids from K-17. We grownup kids have a great time too.
Whole families set up camp at Living Forest Campground which has a beach to brackish river entry, canoes/kayaks, and an on site ice cream shack. Set up/register Saturday, programming with Momos runs 9am-noon and 1-4pm each day except…April G.August 2026
A fantastic canp for the whole family. The kids love the awesome and energetic camp counsellors from Quebec and there is something for all ages. Highly reccomend.

Great location. Very crowded. Late July.
For French speakers: no service in French and a change in attitude towards Quebecers. No smiles?? My observations.
