“Excellent Location With Easy Access To Old Town. ”

We stayed 3 nights. Excellent location with easy access to walking and bike paths. This is a gravel lot but is well lit and plenty of room. Beautiful view of the marina and old town.

Parking lot was easy to find and clean. We have stayed in a similar site in New Orleans which was wonderful. New Orleans was clean, quiet and patrolled by the police station across the street.

This site was disappointing. Only 1 small trash can for the 25 rvs parked there. Cost 70 with no services which we were fine with. Old Quebec City is in walking distance but it's a very steep uphill walk which takes about 15 minutes. Parking lot was brightly illuminated and extremely noisy all night due to trains, heavy traffic on road adjacent to the parking lot, and worst of all loud dance/party music till midnight at least. We only managed 6 hours sleep. We did not see any security. So if you go take eye masks, good ear plugs and lock your doors!

Close walk to the Old Quebec and walking around the Marina at night with the lighted views was really spetacular. It is a very safe place with the police patrolling quite a bit and very quiet. If visiting Quebec, this is a very easy place to get in to with any size rig.

Yes it’s just a gravel lot but check out the view!!!! I literally had a waterfront spot right beside to Old Quebec City! There is a beautiful waterfront trail, well-manicured with grass and trees that you follow to walk to the city. It’s not cheap but for the prime location, it’s worth it!

Yes it’s just a gravel lot but check out the view!!!! I literally had a waterfront spot right beside to Old Quebec City! There is a beautiful waterfront trail, well-manicured with grass and trees that you follow to walk to the city.
It’s not cheap but for the prime location, it’s worth it! Also the internet was smoking fast! No hookups so if you come in summer, check the weather first as there can be heat waves with high humidity.
I will definitely come back to this spot! It was quiet at night, the parking lot was completely litter free and there was a garbage bin and a recycling bin too!
Be aware that the 24 hour parking is literally 24 hours exactly and additional time can only be purchased in 24 hour increments.
There is an easy route in but larger rigs beware of possible construction in the city that may narrow certain roads.

We stayed here in September 2018. There are no facilities- no hookups, no restrooms, no dump station. It is simply a parking lot, adjacent to a working harbor, that allows RV parking.
The harbor is easy to get to. From the freeway, you take a large boulevard, then a few turns until you reach the parking lots. If you look at Google satellite map, you'll see where the RVs congregate. There are adjacent car parking lots there, as well, where people were parking to board the cruise ship.
You enter the lot, park wherever you want, then go to a pay machine to pay, and then put the receipt on your dash. The rates are $50. (Canadian) to park 6 hours, or $70. for up to 24 hours. They do take Visa. Hint- *You can't just push a button to select the 24 hour rate. The pay machine will start off with the 6 hour rate and you have to manually scroll the up arrow to get to the 24 hour rate*. There ARE some instructions in English on the pay machines.
There is a nice walking path that takes you around the marina and onto the waterfront side of Old Quebec. From there, you can explore the many quaint streets and buildings, shops and restaurants.
The 3 stars rating is because it's a parking lot in a really great location. It's not meant to be nice or quiet. It's a noisy harbor where you hear things like train cars connecting in the wee hours of the night. But, what makes up for that is the proximity to a most beautiful city. We appreciated parking once, then walking in a city where you would not want to take any sized rig onto most streets. Cities are usually difficult for us and we often avoid them as we don't have a tow vehicle. We very much appreciated that the City of Quebec allows RV parking.
Our Verizon signal was switched over to the local carrier but had full signal. Our Winegard Rayzar pulled in multiple TV stations, en Francais.
Our arrival time was around 1pm so we had until that time the next day. It was the perfect amount of time to walk into Old Quebec, take the Funiculaire, walk the Terasse Dufferin past the Chateau Frontenac to the Citadel, then on to dinner. The next morning, we walked back into town and explored some more. Since the parking lot itself was somewhat noisy, we wouldn't have wanted to stay longer. 24 hours for us was perfect. It left us with more to explore we go back.
