Canada is a vast and dazzlingly beautiful country to explore. The combination of different landscapes and weather patterns, the charming little towns and bustling cities, and, of course, the warm, welcoming Canadian people all make it a wonderful place to travel around. But Canada is also a big place. Really exploring and getting to know the country means moving around, which means unpacking and repacking each time you change locations…hardly conducive to a restful and comfortable experience! If you want to see as much of Canada as you can and still make the trip a luxurious and comfortable one, there's a simple solution: rent yourself a spacious RV and make it your home away from home! These luxury RV parks will be the perfect places to pull up between road trips.
Luxury RV Parks Close To Private Jet Airports
Your vacation should be about experiencing the best that Canada has to offer, and that includes the travel portion of the trip. Hiring a charter plane to get into the country (and to many of Canada’s most stunning destinations that are only reachable by air) and to your first destination will start the trip off on a good note. From there, it's off to collect your RV and straight to one of these well-appointed, luxurious RV parks to start your trip for real.
1. Bow RiversEdge Campground: Cochrane, Alberta
Close to: YYC Calgary International Airport (YYC)
Doesn't a riverside escape sound like a wonderful way to pass a few tranquil days or weeks? On the banks of the Bow River, you’ll find the perfect place: Bow River’s Edge Campground, which includes a luxury RV section. Here you’ll find 144 sites, each set a reasonable distance apart for privacy and peace, and each with full hook-ups (both 20 and 50 amp service) and free wifi for all guests. Not only is the view from the campground itself gorgeous, but there's a lot to see and do in the surrounding areas. On the property itself, you can play horseshoe or bocce ball on the courts, there are paved cycling and walking trails, and wonderful fishing spots along the river. Nearby in the charming little city of Cochrane, the more active travellers can make use of the pickleball courts or find a place to grab a down-home delicious bite to eat. The camp’s proximity to the Canadian Rockies means that it's less than an hour from the world-famous Banff National Park, which is stunning year-round but may be closed or difficult to access during the coldest parts of winter.
2. Fairmont Hot Springs Resort: Fairmont Hot Springs, British Columbia
Close to: Canadian Rockies International Airport (YXC) in Cranbrook
Speaking of the Canadian Rockies, this little gem of an RV and campsite is a little bit further west into the range. The Fairmont Hot Springs Resort is one of the most relaxing places around because guests get discounted access to the namesake hot springs, one of the biggest and most lovely in Canada. There are 190 RV sites, each of which is full-service. Choose your view too, with mountain and river views available as well as treed sites for maximum privacy. There are several stores on site, and guests have access to free and unlimited wifi during their stay. There are yoga classes, tennis courts, an exercise room, and a selection of family-friendly activities, too, which change day by day. The resort also has two golf courses and a driving range, or, if you prefer being pampered to physical activity, there's the Natural Spring Spa for massages, facials, and other self-care experiences. Fairmont is heaven for those who love outdoor activities: there's a sandy beach nearby for the summer months, and of course, the river for kayaking and tubing. During the winter, there's a selection of slopes nearby, so don't forget to bring your gear.
3. Living Forest Oceanside Campground and RV Resort: Nanaimo, British Columbia
Close to: Vancouver International Airport (YVR)
Vancouver Island is a classic Canadian destination and no trip to the Western part of the country is complete without it. Living Forest is, in a word, idyllic. And spacious, with more than 300 campsites. You won't be the park’s only residents though; eagles and other wildlife flourish here too, so be aware that you’re sharing a space with wildlife when you visit. Every site has all the practical and cozy amenities that you could want: fire pits and picnic tables, full hook-ups, high-speed wifi, an on-site game room, a library, a kids' playground, and both basketball and volleyball courts. You certainly won't want for activities! The on-site cafe serves the best gourmet coffees and teas as well as delicious sandwiches and snacks. For full meals, however, you’ll need to go off-site. There are sunbathing and swimming beaches for the summer months, and there's easy access to the Pacific and the Nanaimo River for the swimming and kayaking crowd. The hiking and biking in this stunning area are both sensational as well. Prefer retail therapy? No problem! Head into Nanaimo to stroll along the harbourfront, shop at the cute local stores, or attend one of the many different festivals that happen there throughout the year.
