OPEN ALL YEAR!
Our campsite is the perfect city escape. We’re 40 minutes away from downtown Calgary but completely surrounded by nature.
With over 50 acres, we offer very large, open, and spacious campsites to accommodate all. If you want a group gathering or a quiet secluded weekend, we are here to accommodate everyone and are very flexible with our customers' needs - feel free to message me with any questions.
Picnic tables and firepits are provided in all of our unserviced natural sites. There is a toilet available.
Onespot Campground is all-natural and has no power or water campground. Generators are permitted. Trailers need to fill water and dump trailer before arriving (we have no water and no dump site yet).
Close to West Bragg Creek Provincial for hiking and mountain biking in the summer and cross-country skiing in the winter.
We are a family-friendly and pet-friendly campground. To ensure that we respect all guests, we have an 11 pm curfew.
We look forward to hosting you!
Overall we would never go back, we were pleased with the tenting spot and the view of the river and several trails to walk. On the other hand, the outhouses were FULL, I checked 4 of them and they were all full some cleaner than others but disgusting none the less. The garbages were over flowing. One guy when we arrived told us fire wood was $50 for a bag, the next guy told us $20.
This could be an amazing campground but needs some care and a good cleanup.
While an interesting idea this place is not maintained (no qualifier needed). The pictures online are very misleading. When you enter the property you are met by garbage scattered across the property. The office is an old run down trailer with instructions haphazardly placed on particle board.
When you drive through to a campsite, most of them don’t look appealing. They have old broken down children’s play sets and again more random junk.
The only redeeming quality are the few sites along the river. However again here it is obvious that they don’t care for the land. There is garbage strewn everywhere from past campers who obviously should have cleaned up. The garbage bins are all over flowing and there is no where to put trash except for being it out yourself.
I would suggest avoiding this spot.
We enjoyed how quiet the place was and the easy access to the water, it had a very laid back atmosphere, reminded us of growing up in the UK in the 70's, we were left to explore and wonder around without any mention of rules and dog restrictions.
The portapotty though were pretty bad, splattered, full and stinky, could definitely do with being emptied and some sort of cleaning schedule.
The location is great, friendly atmosphere
When I got to the area there weren’t clearly designated sites (like with a fire pit, picnic table, etc), just a sort of open area with RV’s miscellaneously scattered & trash was everywhere. In fairness it was a really windy day, but still…
People were nice, location was great (half between Banff & Calgary), little shops down the road, but the area itself was just kind of a mess. Probably great for RV’s or car camping, but wouldn’t recommend for tent camping.
