super endroit très tranquille nous sommes du nouveau Brunswick et a chaque visite au QC nous arrêtons ici. je recommande wow
Report Check-InTrès grand parking, super tranquille. Nous y sommes restés une nuit et laissé le véhicule le temps d'un événement sportif. Nous étions près du parc à chien. Cependant, si vous êtes sensibles au bruit, on peut entendre les voitures sur l'autoroute et le bruit de quelques avions qui décolle. Pour notre besoin, c'était parfait.
Report Check-InSite super pratique. Accès aux toilettes et aux douches gratuitement de 9:00 à 17:00 (env). Calme la nuit (on entend toutefois le bruit de l'autoroute à côté mais on s'y habitue). Pleins de sentiers et d'activités disponibles pour ceux qui veulent profiter du lieu.
Report Check-InStayed a Thursday night and was super peaceful and quiet. Stayed again on Friday night and we were harassed by a group of local beligigerent numbskulls who blasted their speakers and threw beer cans at our van. They left after 10 minutes and did not return. Something to be aware of if you plan to stay on a weekend night. Bathrooms and the lot is great but beware of these losers.
Report Check-InSmall correction/addition to the previous comments:
When we arrived (shortly after 5pm), the water fountains & toilets were closed (even the outside ones located a bit further in the park). They opened again in the morning. We don't know why, since on their website they advertise toilets open until 9pm.
The parking lot is big and levelled but it seems it's a very busy place until late in the evening and early in the morning, and the building lights are kept on at night. We could take a shower in the very clean bathrooms, but the water was cold. Keep that in mind when choosing this spot, had we known, we would have driven a bit further to a more secluded place.
Beautiful place for outdoor winter activities and staying overnight. Amazing new building. Bathrooms were open 24hrs from the outside doors. Building opens 9am to 5pm in winter 7 days a week. Had 2 other Vans in the parking with us. Very quiet and comfortable. Can’t say enough about how grateful we are for places like this. So thanks for all the sponsors including la Ville du Quebec.
Report Check-InSpend 4 nights here and there will be more when we pass Quebec again. This spot is great in every way. The 24/7 toilets and water fountains are perfect. The free, hot showers at daytime are amazing, better than some formal campsites. The whole area with the small lakes is beautiful.
Only some noise from the highway, but nothing annoying.
I recommend using the parking spots behind the building (saw also some RVs using the others). They are quieter and closer to the washrooms. Marked them in the screenshot.
We stayed here one night in our van. 24/7 access to toilets and water fountain. In the morning the shower block opened and we were able to have individual showers. Very clean facilities. Highly recommend this location.
Report Check-InFantastic stay!! Showers are inside and free, open from 9am until 9pm. There is a toilet next to showers that is open 24/7. We stayed the night and had about 5 other campers in the parking lot with us.
The correct lot to stay in is next to the lake, right by the big building. Lots of walking trails around too, there are some power points attached to the building that I used to charge my computer in the morning.
Very peaceful stay, quiet and you don't hear the highway at all. Close walk or drive to supermarkets.
Report Check-InReally sweet spot. Big parking lot, toilets and free shower!!
Also a great place to spend the day with park, trails, lake and beach.
Gem of a spot in Quebec city,
Free newly built hot showers inside building (open until 9pm and at 9am)
Had zero disturbances at night even with 50+ cars parked at the front for a huge banquet the night I stayed (go to the parking lot at the back)
Highway noise doesn’t bother you
Report Check-InWe planned to stay the night here but we stopped at a rest stop along the st Lawrence river instead. We did go here the next morning to check it out and take a shower. The inside showers are great and free, amazing! For overnight it looked ok but we liked the reststop we had better.
Report Check-Ingrand parking, calme, douches, toilettes, fontaines à eau potable, seul inconvénient, barrière pouvant éventuellement se fermer , je voulais éviter de prendre le risque de me faire chasser
Report Check-InDouche accessible gratuitement. Air climatisé, distributeur à savons, séchoirs à cheveux muraux.
Report Check-InLarge parking lot for a recreation. Water station 24hrs. Outdoor showers 24hrs. Washrooms for day use only.
Report Check-InOpening hours from 9am to 7pm.

Large parking lot with space for every size of vehicle. In the Base Plein Air Sainte-Foy you have washrooms with showers for free(!). The parking lot is next to a lake, you can go to the beach for free but you have to do a reservation first (bpasf.com).
