Spectacular mountain views and lots of wildlife here. A clean, well kept park, with very accommodating staff. You can wash your rig if you want, at no charge. There are large sites, very wooded, each with fire pit and picnic table. They sell wood at the park for $6 to $8.00. Watch the trees when pulling into your site. It is not very close to Banff Springs (60 km) but we really liked the park. Downside is the booking fee of $8.00 if you make a reservation. We came without reservations and the fee was waived since they had plenty of room. Wi-fi is $8.00 per day and you might have to go to the office to get reception. We did not use the internet for that reason. Cable TV is a joke: you get three or four channels depending on the weather and there is nothing worth watching. Stayed here two nights and enjoyed the beauty of Banff Springs, Lake Louise and took the gondola up the mountain at Banff. Wow!! What a view!! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park is spectacular. The sites are all well kept, the staff is friendly and the campground is very pleasant. I'm definately going back again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a nice park but the rates are getting out of control. The sites are very large and the surroundings are majestic, but it seems a bit expensive. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed in Loop D, site 11. The site was a pull-through, with a slight incline on the nw side. It had a table and firepit, and was clean. We weren't too close to other sites, but could hear some of them. The park and field was great for the kids to run around, and is located near the main building. The short walk is fun, but not anything too exciting. The hot-tub was nice, it has three pools to it, and had a great view of the mountain out the west windows. The washroom were tiled and were always clean. And people at the campground who used them kept them clean also. Dumping was good, as there was space for four units to flush systems. Overall, it was a pleasant experience. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We have stayed here the past 3 May Long Weekends, and every year it seems to go down a bit in quality. This year, once again they did not have the water on in the sites and the washrooms in the different loops were closed so you had to walk to the main building to use the washroom. This is not an issue if you have a trailer with a washroom (which we now have). The campground was still very beautiful as always and has lots of trails for hiking/biking, golf nearby, and breathtaking views of the mountains! The sites are big with ample room to maneuver into the back-in sites. They have a hot tub in the main building and a wading pool outside. This is a very nice campground, but for the price: there are nicer ones. We may be back. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
This RV campground is located in beautiful Kananaskis. Lovely views of Mt. Kidd and surrounding mountains. There are trails for walking along the river and paved trails for biking and walking. Their website offers pictures of each site so you can see what you are booking online. There are full hook ups all the way down to an unserviced section for tenters. We stayed in this section, and there were RVs here as well. Many of my friends with trailers absolutely love this park. There is a store and firewood is sold in the parking lot. The hot tub closes at 7:30, which is too early in my opinion. We went hiking all day and by the time we returned to our site and made dinner, it was too late to enjoy the hot tub. Most sites were shaded and in treed areas. We will come back, especially now that we just bought a travel trailer! We camped here in a Tent.
