The 4 Wing RV Park and Campsite – File Photo

Did you know there’s a quiet, family-friendly RV park and campground right here at Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Cold Lake? Tucked just across from the old Martineau subdivision and surrounded by beautiful woodlands, the 4 Wing RV Park and Campground has been offering a peaceful retreat to members of the Defence Team since it was established in 2011.

With 15 RV sites and 11 tent sites, the campground is open annually from May through September and is an ideal spot for summer evenings under the stars. Each site is equipped with its own picnic table and fire pit—perfect for roasting marshmallows or sharing stories around the fire (be sure to obey all local fire bans that may be in effect).

The park features a central washroom, garbage disposal, and a spacious covered gazebo with tables and seating—great for group meals, relaxing with a book, or just enjoying the peace and quiet.

All of this comes at a cost of just $15 per night, making it one of the most affordable getaways you’ll find in the area.

The 4 Wing RV Park and Campground is open to:

  • Currently serving Canadian Forces members, both Regular and Reserve, and their families

  • Veterans and former CAF members who completed basic training and were honourably discharged, along with their families
  • DND Public Servants, NPF Staff, MFRC Staff, DRDC and DCC Staff, and their families
