Campground Description
The Old Bezanson Townsite is a Day Use park with an area that can be booked for group overnight camping. Individual or spontaneous camping is not permitted. Day Use is open on Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. In the early 1900s, A.M. Bezanson started building a settlement here in anticipation of a rail link. The line passed through Grande Prairie instead and this location was eventually abandoned. Building footprints are all that remain of his dream. Bring your own firewood

While visiting our parks this season, please remember:
Be considerate of others.
Avoid excessive and offensive noise at any time of day: Talking or singing loudly, stereos at high volume and any other noisy behaviour is not permitted.
Quiet hours for group camping are from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. This means all stereos and generators must be turned off, and noise must be kept to a minimum.
Keep campfires small and under control. Make sure your fire is extinguished before you leave. Soak it with water once, and then again, making sure to stir through the ashes. Do not burn any garbage in the fire pits. It is an offence to leave a fire unattended or burning (even smouldering) after vacating your site.
