An RV trip through western Canada is truly a bucket-list worthy, life-changing vacation. From the towering, glacial peaks, to the vast, wind-swept praries, BC and Alberta are breathtaking destinations, and trust us – pictures CANNOT do it justice. However, RV trips can quickly become expensive – once you book your RV, you still have to think about the cost of campgrounds, food, activities, fuel, and extras (like souvenirs and convenience items). This guide will help you save some cash as you spend your holiday enjoying the scenery – so you can spend less time pinching pennies, and more time ma ..read more

Looking for some inspiration for your upcoming holiday? You’re in the right place! This summer, we had the pleasure of hosting a young couple for a trip around Western Canada.

Whether you are new to motorhome camping, or an RV veteran heading out for the first time of the season, the process of prepping the RV for departure can seem like a lot to remember the first couple of times.

  Canada is a beautiful, diverse, and wonderful place. There’s lots to experience here, and (we think) you could easily spend a whole lifetime exploring! Our location makes us a great jumping off place for an epic Canadian road trip. However, we are also located very close to the US border…. and there’s lots to see THERE too! (I know. Too many options!)

We always recommend that visitors to this area enjoy some of the spectacular scenery only visible by waterways ..read more
