Bon Accord camping overview
Bon Accord sits in Sturgeon County about 30 kilometres north of Edmonton, on the prairie edge between the North Saskatchewan River valley and the rolling farmland of central Alberta. The town works well as an RV base because it is close to the city's amenities without the traffic, and several full-service parks are within a short drive.
The closest options cluster around the neighbouring town of Gibbons. Goose Hummock RV Resort sits 15 minutes north of Edmonton and a short walk from Goose Hummock Golf Resort and the Jurassic Forest and Learning Centre, which makes it a natural fit for families. Longriders RV Park-Open Year Round is a year-round campground 15 minutes northeast of Edmonton near Redwater and Fort Saskatchewan, with big-rig-friendly sites and daily, weekly, monthly, and seasonal options. South of Bon Accord, St. Albert Kinsmen RV Park offers a full-service stop close to Edmonton. Heading north, Echo Lake Family Campground in Westlock County trades convenience for quiet acreage and lake access.
Things to do near Bon Accord
The headline family attraction sits next door in Gibbons. Jurassic Forest and Learning Centre is an outdoor park just north of Edmonton with trails through old-growth forest, life-sized animatronic dinosaurs, a mini-golf course, a paleontology dig site, and a playground. Golfers can pair a stay at Goose Hummock RV Resort with a round on the adjacent 18-hole championship course at Goose Hummock Golf Resort.
In Sturgeon County, Prairie Gardens offers garden-based activities on a working farm about 25 minutes northeast on Highway 28. Paddlers head to Echo Lake or to the Sturgeon River valley trail system in St. Albert for cycling and birdwatching at Lois Hole Centennial Provincial Park. Edmonton's zoo, science centre, river valley trails, and West Edmonton Mall are all within a 30 to 45-minute drive.

Central Alberta has a short, intense camping season. The reliable window runs from the May long weekend through Labour Day, with shoulder weeks in early May and late September weather-dependent. The average last spring frost in the Edmonton area is May 8, frost normally returns on September 22, giving a frost-free period of about 135 days.
Summer is the busiest and also the wettest stretch. For central Alberta's climate regime, the wettest months are May, June, July, and August. Afternoon thunderstorms are common in June and July, and smoke from wildfires elsewhere in the province can drift in during hot, dry spells. Fall brings cooler nights and quieter sites through September, and most seasonal parks close by early October.
Winter camping is possible but limited to a few year-round operators such as Longriders RV Park-Open Year Round. From October to April, Edmonton can remain below freezing all day long, with about 83 days a year when the temperature never rises above 0 degrees Celsius. Plan for full freshwater tanks, heated hoses, and skirted rigs if camping November through March.

How to book campgrounds near Bon Accord
Most parks in the area run on private reservation systems rather than the provincial Alberta Parks portal, so book directly with the campground. Goose Hummock RV Resort takes online reservations through Campspot and assigns sites in advance, with check-in handled ahead of arrival rather than at a main office.
Longriders RV Park-Open Year Round offers daily, weekly, monthly, and seasonal rates with full hookups including 30 and 50 amp power, city water, and town sewer; bookings go through the operator directly. For St. Albert Kinsmen RV Park, book through the Kinsmen Club's online system; the park is open annually from early May to the end of September, weather dependent. Echo Lake Family Campground uses Campspot and its own website. Long weekends fill earliest, so book peak summer dates several months out.
What to expect at area campgrounds
Sites near Bon Accord are mostly gravel pads on flat or gently rolling prairie, often with mature poplar or spruce between rows. Hookups vary by park. Goose Hummock features large sites with 30-50 amp hookups, gravel parking and tenting pads, fire pits, picnic tables, public washrooms and central septic dumping services. Longriders is big rig friendly with gated front entry, open year-round, free Wi-Fi, and coin-operated laundry and showers.
St. Albert Kinsmen RV Park is a 93-stall full-service park with level sites and easy access to St. Albert trails and shops. Echo Lake is the most rustic of the cluster, with large and extra-large sites in treed and open areas, walking trails, and an off-leash dog park. Expect cell service throughout the region, Wi-Fi at most parks, and mosquitoes in June. Fire bans are common in mid-summer, so check Alberta Wildfire status before arrival.

rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bon%20Accord%2C%20AlbertaDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Bon Accord, Alberta?
Good news: for almost every RV rental in Bon Accord, a regular Class 5 driver's license is all you need, with no commercial license or special endorsement required for RVs without air brakes. On RVezy, approved drivers are generally 25 or older, and your ID is verified inside the platform during booking. Visiting from abroad? Bring your home-country license plus an International Driving Permit (IDP) and you're ready to head out of Bon Accord toward Elk Island or the Rockies.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsAm I covered if something goes wrong during my Bon Accord RV trip?
Yes, every RV rental in Bon Accord booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so help is one phone call away whether you're parked at Astotin Lake Campground in Elk Island National Park or rolling down Highway 28. RVezy offers multiple protection plan tiers you can choose from at checkout, covering damage to the RV up to set limits based on the plan you select. It gives renters meaningful financial protection so you can focus on the trip, not the what-ifs.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Bon Accord RV rental?
Booking is low-risk: RVezy sets the cancellation policy (it's not host-defined), and it includes a money-back grace period right after you book so you can lock in your dates with confidence. Refund outcomes depend on factors like how far before your trip you cancel. If a host cancels on you, RVezy helps you get a refund or rebooking credit. You'll see the full cancellation details on the RVezy website during checkout. Pro tip: book early to grab the best Bon Accord RVs for July and August, knowing the grace period has your back if plans shift.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Bon Accord RV trip?
Absolutely, a pet-friendly RV rental in Bon Accord is easy to find. On RVezy, toggle the Pet-Friendly filter and you'll see local hosts who welcome dogs, often with a small cleaning fee. Once you're on the road, you've got fantastic options nearby: Elk Island National Park (about 50 km southeast) allows leashed dogs on most trails, and the paved paths around Bon Accord Lions Park are perfect for a quick stretch. Pro tip: bison roam freely at Elk Island, so keep your pup leashed at all times and give wildlife at least 100 metres of space.
parks.canada.ca/pn-np/ab/elkisland/visit/animaux-petsCan the RV be delivered to my campground or home in Bon Accord?
Yes, and it's one of the smartest ways to start a stress-free trip. Many Bon Accord hosts offer RV delivery directly to your driveway, Edmonton International Airport (YEG), or straight to a campsite at Elk Island National Park, Half Moon Lake Resort, or Lily Lake Resort. Your host will set up the RV, level it, hook up power and water where available, and walk you through every system before leaving. Delivery fees vary by distance and RV size and are shown on each listing. Pro tip: campground delivery is gold for first-timers, you skip the drive and arrive to a ready-to-camp setup.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bon%20Accord%2C%20AlbertaHow far can I travel from Bon Accord on a typical RV rental?
You can go further than you'd think. Bon Accord is a perfect launch pad: Edmonton sits about 30 km south, Elk Island National Park is roughly 50 km southeast, Jasper National Park is about 390 km west via Highway 16 (the Yellowhead), Banff is roughly 575 km southwest, and Drumheller's Badlands are about 320 km south. Most RVezy hosts in the Bon Accord area include a daily mileage allowance, often 100 to 200 km per night, with extra kilometres available for a small per-km fee. Want an RV rental with unlimited mileage? Filter for it in search, several local hosts offer it for longer trips.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bon%20Accord%2C%20AlbertaWhere are the best campgrounds near Bon Accord, AB?
You're surrounded by great options for RV camping near Bon Accord. Astotin Lake Campground inside Elk Island National Park (about 50 km southeast) offers powered sites, beach access, and dark-sky stargazing. Half Moon Lake Resort east of Edmonton has full hookups and a sandy beach. Glowing Embers RV Park & Travel Centre west of Edmonton is a popular full-service stop heading toward Jasper. Lily Lake Resort north of Bon Accord is a quieter family pick with fishing and trails. Pro tip: Elk Island campsites book up fast from the May long weekend through September, reserve at reservation.pc.gc.ca as early as possible.
parks.canada.ca/pn-np/ab/elkisland/activ/campingWhen is the best time of year for an RV trip from Bon Accord?
July and August are the sweet spot, with daytime highs typically around 22 to 24°C, long daylight hours that stretch past 10 p.m., and every campground open for business. June and September are excellent shoulder-season picks, with fewer crowds, lower rates, and crisp evenings perfect for a campfire. Spring (mid-May) brings green hills and baby bison at Elk Island, while fall delivers golden aspens along Highway 16. Winters can drop to -15°C or colder, but adventurous renters can still book winter-ready motorhomes for aurora chasing. Pro tip: book July weekends by March, this is peak season for any Bon Accord RV trip.
climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_normals/results_1981_2010_e.html?searchType=stnName&txtStationName=edmontonI've never rented an RV before. Will I be okay driving one around Bon Accord?
You've absolutely got this, first-time renting an RV in Bon Accord is easier than people expect. Roads here are flat, well-paved, and traffic is light once you're north of Edmonton. Your host gives a full walkthrough at pickup covering driving, hookups, slide-outs, and the propane system, and they're a text away during your trip. RVezy's 24/7 roadside assistance backs you up too. Pro tip: start with a smaller Class C motorhome or campervan rental in Bon Accord, take a practice loop on Highway 28, then point yourself toward Elk Island for an easy, confidence-building first night.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat if the RV breaks down during my trip?
You won't be stranded, every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan. One call connects you with help for flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, towing, and mechanical issues whether you're on Highway 2 heading to Edmonton or deep in the backroads near Lac La Biche. Your host is also reachable through the RVezy app to walk you through quick fixes (sometimes a tripped breaker is all it is). Pro tip: snap a photo of the RV's VIN and license plate at pickup, it makes any roadside call faster and gets you back to your trip sooner.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Bon Accord RV rental across the border into the US or BC?
Cross-province travel within Canada is welcome, cross-border to the US is sometimes allowed, and Mexico is off-limits. Driving your Bon Accord RV into British Columbia, Saskatchewan, or anywhere else in Canada is straightforward and covered. For trips into the United States (think Glacier National Park via the Coutts border, about 600 km south), message the host before booking to confirm, since insurance and protection need to extend across the border. Travel to Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals. Pro tip: a popular RV road trip from Bon Accord is the loop through Jasper, into BC's Mount Robson, and back via Highway 16, no border paperwork needed.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat kind of fuel mileage and budget should I plan for?
Budgeting fuel is simple once you know the numbers. Class C motorhomes in this area typically get about 13 to 17 L/100km (roughly 14 to 18 mpg), travel trailers depend on your tow vehicle but expect similar figures, and campervans can do better at 10 to 12 L/100km. Gas in the Edmonton region commonly runs $1.30 to $1.55 CAD per litre, so a round trip from Bon Accord to Jasper (around 800 km) costs roughly $130 to $180 in fuel for a mid-size motorhome. Pro tip: fill up in Bon Accord or Morinville before heading west, prices climb noticeably once you're past Hinton on the way to Jasper.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bon%20Accord%2C%20AlbertaHow far in advance should I book campgrounds near Bon Accord?
Earlier is better, especially for summer weekends. Parks Canada opens Elk Island National Park reservations through reservation.pc.gc.ca in the winter for the upcoming season and the most popular Astotin Lake sites can fill within hours of release. Alberta Parks campgrounds (like Pigeon Lake or Wabamun Lake) use reserve.albertaparks.ca and open 90 days before arrival. Private parks like Half Moon Lake and Lily Lake take direct bookings year-round. Pro tip: if you're flexible, midweek nights almost always have openings, and many provincial campgrounds hold back a portion of sites as first-come-first-served, perfect for a spontaneous Bon Accord RV trip.
reserve.albertaparks.ca/What are the driving conditions like around Bon Accord?
Driving here is some of the easiest in Canada: flat prairie terrain, wide highways, and minimal traffic once you leave the Edmonton metro. Highway 28 through Bon Accord is a smooth two-lane route, and Highway 2 (QEII) south to Calgary is a divided four-lane freeway. Watch for wildlife at dawn and dusk (deer and moose are common), and in winter check road conditions at 511.alberta.ca before heading out. Summer thunderstorms can roll in fast across the prairie, so pull over and wait if visibility drops. Pro tip: avoid driving through downtown Edmonton in a large motorhome during rush hour, take Anthony Henday Drive (the ring road) instead.
511.alberta.ca/What amenities can I expect at campgrounds near Bon Accord?
You'll find a great range of options. Full-service parks like Half Moon Lake Resort and Lily Lake Resort offer 30/50-amp power, water, sewer hookups, showers, laundry, and Wi-Fi. Provincial campgrounds (Wabamun Lake, Pigeon Lake) typically provide powered or unpowered sites, potable water fills, dump stations, and pit or flush toilets. Elk Island's Astotin Lake Campground has powered sites, a dump station, drinking water, and walking distance access to the beach. Pro tip: for dump stations on your way back, the Edmonton area has several public RV dump options, handy for finishing your Bon Accord RV trip on a clean note.
albertaparks.ca/albertaparksca/visit-our-parks/camping-in-alberta-parks/What's inside a typical RV rental in Bon Accord?
You're getting a fully equipped home on wheels. Most motorhome rentals in Bon Accord sleep four to seven people with a queen bed, convertible dinette, and bunk options; expect a full kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, and sink, plus a bathroom with toilet and shower. Travel trailers offer similar layouts towed behind your truck or SUV. Many rigs include air conditioning, furnace, awning, outdoor speakers, TV, and a generator for off-grid power. Wi-Fi varies by host. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm seatbelt count for everyone in your group, especially important for family RV trips from Bon Accord with kids in car seats.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bon%20Accord%2C%20AlbertaWhat add-ons and pickup options should I know about?
Hosts offer plenty of ways to customize your trip. Common add-ons (and typical fees) include bedding and linen packages ($30 to $75), kitchen kits, camp chairs, BBQs, generators, bike racks, and tow packages. Pickup is usually at the host's location in or near Bon Accord, but many offer delivery to Edmonton International Airport (YEG, about 60 km south) or directly to your campground. Mileage policies typically allow 100 to 200 km per night with extra kilometres at roughly $0.25 to $0.50 each. Pro tip: bundle the linen package and a propane top-up at booking, it costs less than scrambling at the last minute and saves an Edmonton shopping run.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bon%20Accord%2C%20AlbertaHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment is straightforward and fully online, with no cash handed over at pickup. You pay through RVezy with a credit card when you book, and a refundable security deposit is pre-authorized on your card before your trip starts (typical amounts vary depending on the RV and host). The security deposit is separate from your booking payment, and as long as the RV comes back in the same condition, the hold is released after your trip. Pro tip: take a quick walkaround video of the rig at pickup and drop-off, it's the easiest way to keep your security deposit issue-free and wrap up your Bon Accord RV trip with zero surprises.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I rent an RV in Bon Accord during winter for aurora viewing?
Yes, and winter is one of the most magical times to rent an RV near Bon Accord. The area sits under prime northern lights territory, with clear, dark prairie skies and aurora activity frequently visible from autumn through early spring. Look for hosts offering winterized motorhomes with heated holding tanks, an enclosed underbelly, and reliable furnace systems, and plan to stay at a campground with 30-amp shore power that operates year-round, or head north toward Lac La Biche. Daytime temperatures in January often sit between -10°C and -18°C, so pack like you're going skiing. Pro tip: aurora forecasts from AuroraWatch (University of Alberta) help you time your trip for peak displays.
