Operator Supports
We’re Here to Support You
Running a campground, RV park, or small-lodging business in British Columbia can be both rewarding and challenging. Regulations shift, emergencies happen, and guest expectations continue to evolve. That’s why the BC Lodging & Campgrounds Association (BCLCA) is here—to provide the supports you need to operate with confidence, plan for growth, and know that you’re not facing these challenges alone.
Practical Help for Operators
As a BCLCA member, you don’t have to guess your way through tough situations. Whether it’s dealing with extended-stay tenancy risk, figuring out Short-term accommodation compliance, or reviewing your cancellation policy, our team is ready to provide practical, one-on-one advice. We understand the day-to-day realities of running a small tourism business and will connect you to the right resources, templates, or supplier partners so you can focus on looking after your guests.
Time-Saving Tools and Templates
Running a campground or lodge means juggling a lot of paperwork. To help, we’ve built a toolkit of ready-to-use documents, including guest license agreements, storage agreement, and a waiver. These resources save hours of time and give you the peace of mind that your forms and policies are up-to-date and professional.
Advocacy That Gives You a Voice
Many of the challenges you face as an operator—like taxes, insurance business interruption gaps, and emergency response—require solutions at the government level. BCLCA advocates directly with provincial and federal decision-makers to ensure campground, RV park, and lodging businesses are recognized and supported. From pushing for fair public park camping fees, to calling for wildfire relief and insurance reform, we make sure your voice is heard where it matters most.
