For Snaring River Campground - Jasper National Park: We stayed in the overflow campground. Very rustic but still fine. Our complaint was more with the staff.

For Snaring River Campground - Jasper National Park: This is our second stay at Snaring CG and only includes changes from our August 2018 review. We were looking for a place to stay in Jasper NP without reservations for the May long weekend. Although Snaring was full, the overflow area was available. It has changed significantly since our prior stay. Since Whistler CG is closed for renovation, approximately 300 sites were developed in the overflow area. They are arrayed in 5 loops - A-C sites are mostly in the sun and are all long, narrow back ins, D sites are slightly smaller and mostly in the shade, E sites are for tents only. All sites are primitive (no hookups) with a gravel surface. Some need leveling. Water is available for filling containers, not RVs. There are more new pit toilets. The overnight fee is the same as Snaring. There’s a 2 night limit on stays, although it appears if you check out, you can return for an additional 2 night stay. There is now a registration booth at the entrance. The view remains beautiful. The overflow area was approximately 1/3rd full at its busiest during the May long weekend.

For Snaring River Campground - Jasper National Park: We were looking for a place to stay that would be convenient to explore the northern part of Jasper National Park. We're self-contained and don't use the facilities except for an occasional shower. We stayed for a week in early August in our 8 metre (25 foot) MH.
This is a very nice, primitive (no hookups) campground quite conveniently located to Jasper, Miette Hot Springs and Maligne Canyon. There are 63 sites in the CG, all first come, first served. The sites are relatively small (they suggest MH and trailers <27 feet which seems appropriate), adequately spaced, mostly level gravel and mostly shaded. A few are on the river with nice views. There are pit toilets throughout. A fire permit and wood are available for $7/day. There is no electric and no dump. There's a spigot for water (not RV filling). There are 2 free dump stations with potable water (no rinse water) in Jasper 18 km (11 miles) from CG. We had usable ATT cell service with an antenna while roaming on Rogers and no Verizon service at the campground. There a train that runs at night in the distance.
There is also an overflow camping area ~300 m (~0.25 mi) beyond Snaring CG which is also very nice and convenient. The overflow area is also primitive (same description as Snaring CG, including pit toilets, but no water spigots), is big rig compatible and has beautiful views. There's a large field for random parking and a section with dirt roads and pull-ins for more private sites. Campfires are not allowed. Water spigots are available at Snaring CG. The overflow area is closer to the train.
Note that Whistlers CG (780 sites) will be closed for renovations during 2019 so fewer total sites will be available in the park that summer.
