I was hoping to get back to this RV resort to try it a second time but quite frankly the kids had…read moreno desire to go here again. The beach was too small and the vibe wasn't great. I understand restrictions but the resort is designed for people who live there full-time. The ones with full hook ups and built in decks. And if that's what you want this is beautiful. But if you just want a weekend getaway this may not be what you are looking for. There is only one bathroom facility and currently with the cleaning schedule we found there were times it was not accessible. And despite having facilities in my trailer I still prefer to use the provided ones. The resort also advertised trails and they were a joke at least for someone who wanted to go for a real walk. I was also very unimpressed with the check in process. I tried to take advantage of a deal on firewood but they processed my credit card too quickly - it just felt not friendly. Not like the oh so many RV resorts I've been to in the past. I tried something different when I went again- maybe you should too?

Staff is ok, no time to chat at times due to constant maintenance and work. Grass is well kept, lots of washrooms almost everywhere which is great!

Glad I was able to check out this potentially temporary beach! We missed the main entrance but we…read morefound a secondary one that isn't as easy to use but it did the trick. We ended up on the eastern end of the beach. The sand is quite nice around there. I saw some people had a volleyball net set up and once you comb the same for rocks and branches it was perfect for volleyball. The day we went was really windy so playing would be somewhat difficult. In the middle of the beach there's a rocky section which had more litter then other areas. I saw a family picking up some litter to keep the 'park' as clean as possible. I also saw some rock gardens previous beachcombers had created including a cluster in inukshuks that mimicked the city scape behind it. Close to the main entrance to the beach (the carved out stairs) there is a really nice sandy beach. The sand is quite fine grain that it packs hard but is still really nice on the feet. It's also raised from the river but it's closest to the construction dam that allowed this beach to exist. Now regarding the water... the rivers edge appeared to be clean and the water was quite nice but I've heard without a lot of rain recently there could be some unappealing bacteria in the water. There was a section of still water that had come off the river and it definitely had an odor that told you not to go there.

There were pool noodles, and boards, and rings: Oh My! It was also equipped with a slide. The water was clean and there were several staff members, ensuring safety. There were plenty of picnic tables to have a picnic, or for groups to keep their stuff together, as well as many sun lounging chairs. I went at about 6pm, on a hot day, and it was not too crowded. At about 7:15pm we were asked to get out of the pool, as the lifeguards noted the chlorine levels were changing. They were on top of things and kept everyone safe and in the loop! They spent the next 20min attempting to fix the situation, and then called it for the evening, as they will need to spend more time to fix it so that it could be open the next day. I appreciated that they didn't have everyone waiting for an hour before closing up, and gave plenty of notice. I will definitely return regularly, as it is my new favorite outdoor pool in Edmonton.
