We were booked to stay at another campground near Cardston, which wasn't as described, more of a tent campground than RV campground. I found Lee Creek Campground after a quick search on Google Maps. A quick phone call got us a pull-through full-hookup site. The campground is spacious with plenty of room to walk your dog(s). We would definitely stay again.

This was a perfect spot for staying while visiting Waterton. Campsites are big and grassy with permanent picnic tables. Bathrooms were a bit older but they were clean! Definitely would stay here again 😊

Nestled in the heart of the Town of Cardston, Alberta, adjacent to Lee Creek, this campground offers a great experience. Initially, we were hesitant due to some negative experiences we’ve had with other private campgrounds, but this one surpassed our expectations. It’s a must-visit for families with young kids, as the town offers incredible experiences for both young and old. Come and spend some quality time with your family.

Clean, friendly, spacious. Small playground. Clean washrooms. Fairly priced laundry room with brand new machines. We came back for a second stay - so it must be good
