Camping & Hiking · Saskatchewan
A full-service campground in the Waskesiu townsite in Prince Albert National Park, Saskatchewan, with 50-amp hookups, clean facilities and an easy walk to the lake, beach and shops. Some sites need levelling.
Red Deer Campground sits in the trees right beside the Waskesiu townsite in Prince Albert National Park. Campers like having the best of both: it feels quiet and wooded, yet the beach on Waskesiu Lake, shops and restaurants are a short walk away. Elk and other wildlife wander through, and one visitor enjoyed dark skies with the Milky Way and northern lights.
It's well set up for RVs. Reviewers mention full hookups with 50-amp power, some larger sites for bigger rigs, clean washrooms and service buildings, and showers. Several call it exactly what they expect from a national park.
There's plenty to do from your site, with walks and hikes starting right in the campground, beaches, playgrounds and picnic areas nearby, and ice cream in town. It's a relatively short drive from Saskatoon or Prince Albert, which makes it popular with families. Stock up on groceries and fuel before you arrive, since options are limited, especially late in the season.
The practical gripes are small. Some sites aren't level, and the power, water and sewer connections can be spread apart, so bring extra hose and cord. One camper found the campground map confusing. A recent visitor noted the campground was closing early for electrical upgrades, so check current dates before planning a trip.
