Mountain View Farm Camping Ltd

The park was easy to find. It is located at the East Exit to Canmore on the Trans Canada Highway. There is pavement all the way including in the park. Signage is adequate. Check in was "On Line" and by reservation only. The rules are fairly basic. The interior roads are paved and in good condition. Our site, 57, was a gravel based back in that was just long enough for our Coach and Towed. Services (30 amp and water only) were to the left side. Distancing is poor for a Provincial Park. Some sites had a vegetation privacy barrier. Each site has a table and a fire pit. Our site was flat and even. Overall the park was reasonably well groomed. Be aware. There is traffic noise as the park is located right beside the highway. You may hear trains and helicopters as well. There is NO park included wifi or cable TV. We did not find any OTA channels. Satellite might be difficult. We did not use the washrooms or showers but we checked and found them clean. There are no restaurants or stores within easy walking distance but just a short drive away you can find food, shopping and convenience stores. We found this park to be an okay overnighter. We paid $39.00 per night plus a $11.43 reservation fee and one must have paid for a Kananaskis Conservation Pass at $15.00/day 0r $90.00 for the year ($65.43 for one night) and we feel we received poor value. We will look for other alternatives if in the area again.

Is geen 1 ster waardig een hele aardige mevrouw maar verder raad ik deze camping niet aan. Het is er zeer rommelig vies en onverzorgd. De foto’s kloppen niet met de werkelijkheid. Hebben er 2 nachten geslapen omdat we in de buurt camper moesten inleveren. 1e dag kwamen we laat aan en 2e dag zijn we de stad ingeweest dus alleen daar geslapen. De slang waar de uitwerpselen van de buurman uit komt ligt naast onze tafel hebben daarom ook binnen gegeten

Unfortunately this is the closest campground to Calgary Stampede and the owners know they will have guests because of the proximity to such a big event. The campground is dirty, the sites are so close together and the septic and the fresh water source are in the ground right next to each other. It is very unsanitary. I saw a person in a rented RV lay their open water line on the ground next to the septic hole, disgusting. The bathrooms are so old and dirty. I feel for those people who have to use them for showers, etc. I would never recommend this place to anyone. We talked to people who have stayed here before and they all agree the owners do not seem to care about the state of the grounds or the facilities. They must be making tons of $$ as it was always full with people coming in and going out. The only positive thing I have to say is the women who work in the office are very helpful. Oh and the putt putt course is overrun with weeds and poorly maintained. They shouldn’t even advertise it.

pretty used up…. Showers are $1 for 5 minutes tho you need exact change in quarters. So far so good and nothing new. But if I have to pay for the shower, I at least expect them to be working and actually clean. Only two showers were working partly (water wasn’t flowing strong and the last minute is entirely cold) and they were not clean at all. Same for the rest of the washrooms. Disappointing.

My family and I stayed here for 3 nights and we will definitely be coming back next year. The wonderful lady at the front desk (I’m so sorry I never got her name) was extremely kind and super accommodating. We had initially booked a 50 amp hookup when our trailer could only fit a 30 amp. She changed our reservation on the spot and luckily there was a 30 amp available. We had also only planned to stay 2 nights but decided on an extra night. The laundry amenities were super clean and the machines worked great!

My son and I lived at this campground for 2 years and the ONLY reason we stayed so long is because the location was perfect. The rules that this campground has woukd make you think that it's 5 star accomadation when in reality it's a 1 star. They claim the rules are county bylaws, which after speaking to the county they are not, the campground can have the land use bylaws changed anytime they want to. But what does it matter when the campground itself picks and chooses which of their own bylaws they follow and pick and choose which guests to enforce the bylaws on. You can talk to the office staff and ask them questions but if you go and talk to them again in a few days or more they completely backtrack on what they said the last time. For example my son asked one of the ladies about skirting for the winter told her exactly what we were getting and doing she said yes, he soent 700$ on material then 2 weeks later when we started installing it they said that it wouldn't be good enough and we'd have to get something different. Not to mention they only give 72 hours to install it which is hard when you work 6 days a week 12 hours a day. The bathrooms and showers and laundry are in deplorable condition, the showers get cleaned once a day but never properly. They is always a thick layer of scum on the walls on hand rails. Most of the shorter head leak too. Hit and miss if there's hot water or not and the water always has a stench to it. The toilets don't flush properly, but the campground puts signs on the doors remind us to flush thinking that it's the guests fault that the toilets are always backed up, sometimes sitting full of excrement for 12+ hours. If the bathrooms were inspected by AHS they'd be shutdown. In the laundry room you're lucky if they have more than one dryer going and lucky to get your clothes dryer by the end of the day even if you started in the morning. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Even

Stopped here for one night on our way to Alaska. We got in pretty late and check in staff were great. Bathrooms are clean and showers are not free (they take Loonies and Toonies Canadian $1 and $2). Our site backed up to an open grassy area where we could throw the ball for the dogs a bit. There is a communal fire pit and they provided wood, which was a nice touch.
