Rosebud Valley Campground - Didsbury, AB

Marilyn

The campground is managed by Melissa and her wonderful family! They are such a treasure & we believe that is what makes the Rosebud Campground such a special place to stay! Our original booking had to be extended a few times due to unforeseen circumstances. Melissa & her husband were very accommodating!

This quaint campground is a definite jewel! The camping spots are large enough to provide privacy and the sites have full service hookups. The prices are approximately $37/night. Showers, a charming gazebo, playground & bathrooms are on site! Both men’s & women’s washrooms were clean, had change tables for those with children in diapers. On the vanity in both washrooms, was a basket with items such a hairspray, makeup sponges, deodorant, toothpaste and various other items for both genders.

The grounds were very well maintained! Other campers were friendly , waved, said hello or popped by for a chat! The campground had the ambiance of a small community!

Location was great, just a 5 minute ride into friendly Didsbury for your local shopping needs.

Thank you again Melissa and family, we can’t wait to return next year!

Sincerely, Ricky & Marilyn

We had a great experience! The site was large and the park was well maintained. We are looking forward to staying there again! The washrooms were very clean and the location was perfect - within walking distance of everything in town (including Dairy Queen, Tim Hortons and the grocery store). We heard very little highway noise.

The host Phil was amazing as a fellow businessman i appreciate that he went above & beyond to accommodate me & my dog. Although the season is over he accommodated us for the night which was awesome. I would highly recommend anyone to check this site out if there were more than 5 stars I would give them more.

Stayed there from Oct/22 to Sept/23 and I enjoyed the location as it was central for our needs. With the seasonal residents there we met some nice people who are friends today but I have to say when it comes to Melissa who is supposed to be the manager of the place if you want gossip, slander and outright lies being told about certain people this woman takes it all. If at all possible please avoid this campground until new management is put in place. We've been gone for almost 1 year and I'm still hearing slanderous things that she keeps telling the residents.
The resident cat is allowed to use the kids sandbox as its personal litterbox. Being as there is no sewer at the sites make sure to take a flashlight at night if one needs to go to the bathroom because there can be toys left laying around. One night I stepped on some sidewalk chalk and almost rolled my ankle. The train does pass through town at all times of the day and night and does blow its whistle. Only other thing to be aware of is if there is a torrential rain the campground is surrounded on all sides by roads which act like a berm. We got flooded one day and needed a sump pump to get rid of the water.

IF I COULD GIVE 0 STARS I WOULD
Absolutely horrible lady yelled at my sister and I as soon as we came in. After saying hello to our friend who checked in the day before for our stay, we drove onto the grass as many other cars were on the grass too. Within just a few seconds of getting out the car to unpack, an older lady yelled at us, saying we had no common sense, called us entitled girls for not reading a sign we didn’t even reach to read.
We moved the car and unpacked ignoring the fact that we got screamed in order to enjoy our stay. While unpacking, the lady came back and continued to accuse us of being sassy and entitled. She even threatened to kick us out. This is when we found out she was probably the camp owner. No introduction was given prior. The lady insulted us, yelled over us, and threatened us with NO REFUND. She even said we weren’t supposed to be there until 4 because that was when check in was but the time we arrived was maybe 3:45 and our friend had already checked in for us the day before which made her statement make no sense. We wanted to leave there and then! And we should’ve because the stay wasn’t worth it.

Location was near highways, train, and buildings that looked like churches. The night was difficult to sleep because the train kept honking and during the day the air was filled with cars zooming by and of course the sound of the train. The lack of trees and open space made it feel I was camping in my BACKYARD. My backyard would actually have been quieter.
The area seemed to be more of a playground because of the amount of toys laying on the ground for children. My friend actually said a group of children walked through her area the day she arrived. Might’ve been a daycare or school trip.

Horrible service, horrible location. If you wanna camp don’t come here.
Over all, I WOULD NEVER GO BACK.

Had to drop my camper to get work done on my truck. Reserved site #1. Huge lot, very spacious. Men’s Washroom was pretty clean, with 2 showers. The site I was on only had 15amp, no water, but it’s all I needed. Sometimes you hear the train, or the highway but it’s not too bad otherwise. They also have a huge pile of firewood for sale. The site prices are very affordable as well.

Excuse the car, it’s a rental while truck gets some upgrades.

Had a bad experience in this campsite. The location is just along the highway that makes it too loud all the time. No trees on the campsite, it's only good for RVs.
Caretaker/ owner made falls accusations against me and my friends.
My friend lost 1 of her pan (for cooking). Not a safe site if someone is stealing. We're not going back to this site.
Not recommendable.

I've always had a wonderful experience here! My kids are always begging to go back! Melissa and her family are wonderful people that take pride in their family business! They have GREAT prices on wood aswell, and keep it STOCKED!!!
