Camping and RV in Langley: Edgewater Bar and Fort Camping

Short answer. If you want a simple riverside tent site and you’re camping between March and October, it’s Edgewater Bar. If you need hookups, a camp store, a tent cabin or a winter spot for the RV, it’s Fort Camping.

Which one is for me?

You want a tent site by the Fraser River with no hookups. Edgewater Bar. Each of the 38 sites has a gravel pad, picnic table and fire pit. There’s a washroom building with showers, potable water and a picnic shelter. Metro Vancouver lists the fee as $35 per party per night, or $32 for seniors (65 and over) and people with a valid disability parking permit. Limit is two licensed vehicles per pad, and the longest stay is ten nights.

You need power, water and sewer. Fort Camping. It has 156 large campsites and advertises 30 and 50 amp full-service sites, including pull-through sites. It also has a camp store, laundry, sani dump, firewood and ice, and rents novelty bikes.

You want a roof but not a hotel. Fort Camping rents five family tent cabins that each sleep five, with a table and chairs and a mini fridge. It also rents one RV that sleeps four.

You’re an RV owner who wants to stay through winter. Fort Camping runs a winter RV program (the maximum stay is 180 days between October and April) and says registration for the 2026/27 winter is open. Metro Vancouver lists Fort Camping’s campground as open 6 am to 11 pm year round.

You’re bringing a dog. Fort Camping accepts pets on a leash of no more than five feet, two per site, for $2 a day each, and says pets can’t be left unattended. Ask Metro Vancouver about dogs at Edgewater Bar before you go (604-882-4903).

Edgewater Bar: the practical details

• Season. Overnight camping runs March 1 through October 31, with the gates open 6 am to 10 pm. The season closes on October 31 every year, so after that this is a page to save for spring.
• Booking. The 2026 guide says online reservations for the whole season open February 1, with phone bookings at 604-432-6352 (a $5 fee per booking applies). Metro Vancouver asks you to check ahead for temporary closures.
• Check-in. Between 1 pm and 10 pm, with check-out by 11 am. There’s no driving in or out between 10 pm and 6 am.
• Who can book. You must be 19 or older. A camping group is up to eight people, with one to four adults.
• Fires. Only in the fire rings. Metro Vancouver sells firewood at the registration booth for $9 a bundle, by debit, Visa or MasterCard; cash isn’t accepted there.
• Noise. Quiet time is 10 pm to 6 am. Generators must be muffled and can only run 9 to 11 am and 6 to 8 pm. No amplified music.
• Off-season. From November to February you can use vacant campsites during the day, during posted park hours.

Metro Vancouver has been planning to add about 30 more sites east of the existing campground, in a 2025 consultation reported by Modern Campground. We haven’t found an opening date, so don’t count on them yet.

Fort Camping: the practical details

• Booking. Online, in real time, any hour, or by phone during gatehouse hours. Minimum age to rent a site is 21. Reservations aren’t transferable, and the name on the booking must match the ID shown at check-in.

• Cancelling. By email only. More than 14 days ahead there’s a $50 administration fee; inside 14 days you forfeit the full payment. Tent cabins and the group site need 14 days’ notice.
• Choosing a site. The booking system assigns sites automatically. To guarantee a particular site, you can pay a one-time $50 site-lock fee.

Both are inside parks you can explore

Edgewater Bar sits in Derby Reach Regional Park, where the Fort-to-Fort Trail starts. Fort Camping is inside Brae Island Regional Park, a few minutes’ drive from Fort Langley village. The Fort-to-Fort Trail links the two parks, so you can camp at one and walk to the other.
