Mount Kidd RV Park, nestled in the picturesque landscapes of Kananaskis, offers an excellent getaway for campers and RV enthusiasts. Known for its beautiful views, well-maintained trails, and a range of amenities, this park provides a blend of natural beauty and modern conveniences that can elevate any camping experience.

Highlights

  • Scenic Beauty: The park is renowned for its stunning views in all directions, making it a perfect spot for nature lovers and photographers.
  • Privacy and Spacious Sites: Many reviews highlight the large, private sites surrounded by trees, which offer a good level of seclusion and a true wilderness experience.
  • Recreational Facilities: The park features a variety of amenities including walking trails, playgrounds, a splash park, and even a common room with large windows that frame the mountain views beautifully. Additionally, there is a volleyball court, pool table, and snack bar which are particularly enjoyed by families and kids.
  • Proximity to Kananaskis Nordic Spa: Conveniently located near the spa at Kananaskis Village, visitors can enjoy the ultimate relaxation day after exploring the trails and park facilities.

Important Considerations

  • Check-In Timing: Check-in starts after 4 PM, and the main office closes at 5 PM. This can be inconvenient for late arrivals needing tokens for showers, wood, or other essentials.
  • Facilities Availability: Showers require tokens and there might be limited availability of bathrooms and showers in certain areas of the park. Bringing a supply of necessary items and planning shower times can be beneficial.
  • Maintenance: While the park is generally well-maintained, there have been occasional issues with site cleanliness and garbage left by previous occupants. Checking the assigned site upon arrival and notifying staff if any cleaning is required might enhance the experience.
  • Store Hours: The on-site store may have limited hours, so it is advisable to purchase necessary items early in the day to avoid inconvenience.

Overall Thoughts

Mount Kidd RV Park is highly recommended for its stunning natural scenery, excellent recreational facilities, and spacious, private campsites. Despite minor inconveniences related to check-in times and facilities maintenance, the overwhelming beauty and well-planned layout of the park make it a desirable destination. Whether you are looking for a peaceful retreat or an active outdoor adventure, Mount Kidd RV Park promises a rewarding and memorable camping experience.

Well, I have to say the older lady at the front desk on Saturday afternoon saved my a.. somehow, I booked a tent site, and she was able to get me a site with power last min. She sent two young girls to check out the site to make sure it was good to go as someone was in it that didn't have reservations. Girls came back and said it was good. When we went to the site, garbage was left in the firepit, and dog food was left all over the site. The site was huge with a lot of privacy, which was nice. There are not enough bathrooms. The bathroom wasn't close to our site. Also, showers take tokens they are not free. They also need more showers. One thing that I don't understand at all is check-in is after 4 pm. main office closes at 5. If you need tokens for showers, wood or anything else from the office, unfortunately, you have to wait until the next day. This doesn't make sense at all. We came in this morning at 10 am, hoping to get a coffee their menu was off, and there was no staff at the little shop. I had to ask the girl at the front desk what's on the menu? So, in a nut shell campground, it is amazing, beautiful views, walking trails, treed lots, river close by, nice firepit. Campground gets 5 starts. I was disappointed at other things, that's why I gave it a 3 star

Beautiful scenery in every direction. Very well maintained park, with many of the necessary amenities for sale in the store at a reasonable price.

First time camper at Mnt Kidd RV park We’re really amazed by the size of the sites the level of privacy, how organized the campsite was laid out, how easy it was to get to a washroom with hot water and flush toilets. A lot of thought has been put into to this campsite - and it shows Minimum staff interaction, all of them were professional Expect in the summer the many playgrounds are well used The new splash park looked interesting. At the time of our visit it wasn’t completed. Enjoyed the common room. It was sunny with large windows on both sides with views the of mountains. Nothing like some ping pong when we have some light rain outside !! We like easy hikes, and easy biking trails Both were accessible from our campsite An added bonus was that the campsite is close to the Nordic spa at Kananaskis Village. We cycled over to spa using the paved bike trail and enjoyed a full spa day.

We've been lucky to get a spot at Mount Kidd Campground for the long weekend. So many great campsites for more privacy and treed sites. Lots of activities around the Campground. The short trail to Kananaskis river that definitely gives a great view. The washrooms and shower room were all maintained and cleaned. Staffs are all friendly. We're definitely coming back. 🥰
