Try “Comfort Camping”
with Yurts
and Cabins

Comfort camping is the easiest way to camp in Manitoba’s provincial parks. No tent? No problem! There’s no need to haul a trailer or drive an RV either. Instead, stay in the comfort of a cabin or the coziness of a yurt. Comfort Camping accommodations come fully furnished and ready to enjoy. Try this unique, affordable alternative to traditional camping in Manitoba’s provincial parks.

Yurts

The newest addition to our fixed-roof accommodations is the oddly-named yurt. Yurts are part cabin, part tent and 100 per cent comfortable. These large, fabric-sided, domed shelters offer an authentic camping experience for visitors who don’t own, or want to bring their RV or tent with them.
