Camping near Strathmore, Alberta
Strathmore sits on the Trans-Canada Highway about 40 minutes east of Calgary, in Wheatland County on Alberta's prairie. The area pairs flat, big-sky farmland with the Bow River corridor to the south, giving RV travellers an easy mix of full-service resorts, riverside provincial camping, and small-town municipal parks. Most visitors use Strathmore as a Calgary-overflow stop, a Stampede-week base, or a quiet prairie alternative to the Rocky Mountain parks two hours west.
Strathmore Recreation Campground RV Park sits in town within walking distance of the aquatic centre, arena and ball diamonds, while Eagle Lake RV Resort offers lakeside sites a short drive southeast on the shore of Eagle Lake. South across the Bow River, Wyndham Carseland Park provides riverside camping with nearly 200 unserviced sites for tents and RVs, with shade and privacy from generous trees and shrubs. Further out, Aspen Crossing combines a big-rig friendly RV resort of over 350 sites with a heritage railway destination, and Irricana Campground gives a smaller-town option north of the highway.
Things to do around Strathmore
The Bow River from the Carseland Weir to the Highway 24 bridge holds game fish including brown and rainbow trout, northern pike, and Rocky Mountain whitefish. Every loop in Wyndham Carseland Park is close to the Bow River, where visitors can fish, canoe, kayak or explore the nature trail along the shore. Eagle Lake is the closest swimming, paddling and small-boat option, with a beach and boat launch at Eagle Lake RV Resort. Families staying at Aspen Crossing can ride themed heritage train excursions, browse the on-site garden centre and gift shop, and let kids cool off at Sunrise Lagoon. In town, Strathmore has a municipal aquatic centre, skate park, playgrounds and a ball complex within walking distance of the recreation campground. Calgary and its zoo, science centre and shopping sit roughly 45 minutes west on Highway 1.

The practical RV season around Strathmore runs from May through early October, mirroring the rest of southern Alberta's prairie camping calendar. At Wyndham Carseland Park, water services are available seasonally from mid-May to mid-September, weather dependent, and campers are expected to bring their own water during the shoulder seasons. Aspen Crossing operates from April 1 to October 31, with water shut off at regular sites outside that window. Eagle Lake RV Resort generally runs from May through October.
July and early August are the busiest weeks, especially around the Calgary Stampede and the Strathmore Heritage Days Stampede, when sites in town fill quickly. June is the wettest month and the historical peak for prairie thunderstorms and severe weather watches. Late September brings cool nights, fewer bugs and reliable fall colour along the Bow. Strathmore Recreation Campground RV Park is the area's most reliable option for shoulder-season stays.

Paul was so good at explaining everything about the RV to us upon pick up. He was very patient and thorough. Travelling by RV is amazing. We had heat when it was cold, and a roof when it poured rain! We drove directly to the trailheads first thing in the morning to get a parking spot and then cooked our breakfast in the RV before beginning our hikes. Travelling by RV is a great way to travel. We will definitely travel this way again.

We had an amazing time, Julia made everything very easy.
Jake W. - Sep 2026
Julia was extremely kind and helpful. She gave us a full tour of the RV and how to use every amenity, how to dump and how to refill with fresh water. She even went out of her way to grab more blankets for us when we got concerned about being too cold at night. The RV was up to date and very clean, and Julia was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. If you have any concerns about cleanliness, attentiveness, flexibility and communication - I would like to reassure anyone that our needs were met during this trip. Would definitely recommend.
