This is a really nice campground. All sites are grassed, free firewood, free showers, and walking distance to the Co-Op or the pub. One of the best campsites I have come across in my travels. It is too bad that Google does not provide the camping symbol by the park
Richard Naud
Nice campground and clean washrooms. But some late newcomers arrived after 11h00 pm, start cutting wood and make noise while setting camp. Quiet time is in effect between 11h00 and 7h00 but no surveillance.

Great people running the place and everything was very clean. Would definitely recommend to friends. Challenging 9 hole golf course there too!
Ashley Davidson
Bathrooms are the cleanest bathrooms I’ve ever seen at a campground! People in charge are super kind. Lots of shade so it makes for great camping. Will definitely come again

Myself and family members have used the park & campground many times over the years. Wayne & Ruth maintain the campground and park beautifully. Please pass on my thanks! Really a great place for all the family to stop or stay along the yellowhead in Manitoba.
