Greenwood Campground (Town Park)
Overview
Greenwood Campground, often referred to as Sundre Town Park, offers a peaceful retreat nestled right within the community of Sundre, Alberta. This municipal gem is situated along the banks of the Red Deer River, providing a scenic backdrop for travelers exploring the West Country. It strikes a balance between a natural woodland setting and the convenience of being walking distance to local shops and services, making it a favorite for both locals and travelers.
Location & Surroundings
The park is characterized by its mature spruce tree canopy, which offers ample shade and a sense of privacy for many of the sites. Its position along the river provides easy access to the water for those interested in fishing or simply enjoying the flow of the current. Since it is located in the heart of Sundre, visitors can easily access the town’s trail system, including the scenic Snake Hill Recreation Area, which provides an extensive network of paths for all skill levels.
Amenities & Park Features
Guests will find a variety of site types, including options with full hookups and power-only sites to accommodate different RV sizes and setups. The campground is well-maintained by the town, featuring clean washroom and shower facilities, a central playground for children, and a convenient sani-dump station. For those who enjoy a classic camping experience, firewood sales are available on-site, allowing for cozy evenings by the fire under the starlit Alberta sky.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Outdoor enthusiasts will find plenty to do, from rafting on the river to exploring the Sundre Pioneer Village Museum, which highlights the area's rich ranching and frontier history. Golfers can enjoy world-class rounds at the Sundre Golf Club, while hikers can spend hours on the extensive municipal trails. The park’s proximity to the East Slopes of the Rockies also makes this a perfect base camp for day trips into the rugged wilderness areas located just to the west.
Who This Park Is Best For
This park is ideal for families and retirees who value a quiet, safe environment with easy access to modern conveniences like grocery stores and local diners. It is an excellent choice for those who prefer not to be completely isolated but still want to feel immersed in a forested landscape.

Great campground beside the river. Beautiful place to relax and enjoy picturesque walks. Well maintained areas and interesting features within the camp. Camp manager hosts are very friendly and try to help out where they can. Has outhouses, as well as plumbing washroom with showers. Enjoyed a campers Sunday morning service right on site. Close walk to town if forgotten anything. I've stayed here in the past and will definitely return.

The campground is very quiet and relaxing with it being close to the Red deer river. John, the caretaker was very nice and accomodating. Bathroom was clean and this campground offers a full shower. It is also a walking distance to a grocery store, gas station,restaurants and bars. And the site spot we had was perfect, we will gladly come come back.

One of our favorite places to camp. Beautiful sites and very clean. The campground host Jack, is so friendly!! And his dog Odie is so playful. Close walking distance to amenities such as groceries, fast food, coffee, gas, snacks and drinks. There are power sites and non power sites and easy access to the river no matter what site you are at. There is also a playground for the kids. Full service washrooms and showers, firewood you can purchase from the host (they will deliver to your site) garbages, recycling and water spouts (potable and non). Easy booking just by calling. They accept all methods of payment. Great campground in Sundre!
