Something not right?

Description

Day Use Only, Signs posted and enforced. Big paved parking lot with Picnic tables, pit toilets with non portable water sink...and FREE WIFI from Telus! we’re very surprised...that’s great for this part of Canada...
3 stations available for electric cars!!

A great place to stop for a break or a swim in the clear water.

The road westward to Tofino from here is insanely rough and twisty.

No overnight parking or camping sign.

Amazing swimming in the cold clear river. Signs are posted for no overnight camping but there are a bunch of free crown land spots in the area. Plus I did see people camping when I came in at 6am one time.

Big rest area. Highway far enough. Water in the washroom is not potable. No wifi. Stayed overnight.

Pulled in late at night because we needed a place to sleep. There were plenty of other vans and RVs with the same idea.
Great wifi through the whole car park, decent bathrooms as well

Exactly as other comments says. Wi-Fi is great but no overnight parking or camping. We stoped here for the night after 10pm, awesome stargazing possible :)

Great find. We opted to park just outside the pavement to be away from an RV running a gennie. Wifi still reached and was fast. Crystal clear water that was freezing!

This is indeed a nice rest area. There's a "rules" sign that has no camping listed as #2 or 3 but I suspect one could stay here no problem if pulling in late - it is a rest area after all.

There's also a forest service road (Upper Taylor) off the access road into the rest area, and another across the bridge if heading west. These roads are typically crown land, where camping is allowed.

I didn't try the WiFi, but there is Telus LTE and 3g here so if you're on that network or can roam on it you'll be good.

The water in the river is crystal clear - this is a very nice place to stop.

Confirmed. Great wifi here. Saw some campers here in the morning so you could probably sleep here without a problem.
