This campground is located about ten minutes outside of Winnipeg in a Provincial Park. The park itself has lots of hiking trails, a paved bicycle trail, beach, riding stables. You need to drive to most of the activities, except the hiking trails. We live in Winnipeg, so this a just a 15 minute drive from home for us; but once you are set up you feel as if you are hundreds of miles away. Sites are very large and private. We stayed in a pull through, which was different than most of the drive throughs we have stayed in. With these, you park alongside your spot and sort of have a private yard on the side of your unit. There is a small store on site to pick up necessities, but for anything more you would have to travel back to Winnipeg. But RV dealers/stores as well as restaurants and shopping are all only 15 minutes away. However, there is no wifi or cable TV, so it is a real "camping" experience. We camp here regularly when we feel the need to "get away" for a weekend. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
While the Mobile Home part of the Park was acceptably maintained, the RV section was grubby, had excess noise and partying by apparent seasonal users, with approval of management. Showers were not secure (no locking doors, both mens and womans showers accessible to anyone walking in through the laundry room). Management relied on users to do all the cleaning, therefore they were filthy. However, close access to Winnipeg, shopping and fast food. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is absolutely my worst camping experience in over 15 years of camping. We registered before we actually saw our site. We were given a lecture about not driving on the grass. We had to drive through 6"+ of mud to get to our camp site. This campground is a complete swamp. It is built in a low spot and no consideration has been given to drainage. They use very cheap "gravel" that is really only suitable for fill, it should not be used on roads. Our door opened into a 10' square area that was flooded with 8" of water the entire weekend. The sites are laid out poorly, and it was impossible to get my 36' fifth wheel and truck in the site without driving on the grass (mud). We then asked to move and were told it was impossible for them to move us, there were no open sites. Well there were dozens of open sites. Our 2 year old son could not leave the camper for the entire sunny weekend. We were treated very poorly, we were talked down to by the staff, were insulted by the staff. They would not refund our money and would not give us a discount. I would never even dream of camping there again based on this experience. I have never felt the need to complain to any campground about anything before this experience. If you do decide to camp there I sure hope for your sake it is a dry year, and you don't need deal with the staff. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
I was not impressed with this campground. The hook-up points are very poorly placed at the very back of the sites, with the power pedestal being shared by sites on both sides. I am glad I had a 30' cable, as I needed all of it. This also means the power will be on the wrong side for half the sites. The staff is not friendly, and the washrooms and showers were not working (except the one next to entrance). They have a lot of rules, but seem to pick and choose who they apply to. We camped here in a Truck Camper.
Big mainly open aspect campground. Signage to campground good. Large area to park and register. Office staff efficient but not over friendly. Roads to site a little narrow and ill maintained. Big gravel full service sites with grass. The full hook-up included 50amp which was solid. Good water pressure. The gravel pads of the sites were a little soft, so make sure put blocks under your jacks particularly if it has been raining. No waste bins but rubbish collection. Site had good ambience but could do with a lot more maintenance. Good location to visit Winnipeg and surrounding area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
