Whichever one we do I will post a trip report
Whenever I've booked a site I've always done it over the phone, but you should be able to pick up the permits at the barrier lake visitor centre, just off highway 40:

There is a limited number of campsites though, so if you try to pick it up the day of you might be out of luck.
