Province of Manitoba winter RVing in Manitoba
Posted: Sat March 1, 2008 02:38 PM UTC
I will be moving to Winnipeg in the fall and am looking for a place within 45 minutes of downtown where I could live in my RV through the winter. Yes, I know about Winnipeg winters, bla, bla, bla. My RV is my permanent home and I have wintered in it before. I just need info on RV parks that are open year round or other options for setting up my RV 'permanently' for the winter.

Thank you,

Rae

Because of those "Winnipeg winters" I would be very doubtful about any campgrounds being open there in the winter. However, here is the link to the Manitoba tourism site; click on the "provincial parks" link to get to the campground info.

I live here (in Winnipeg), and I have not heard of any RV parks that are open during the winter. How would you deal with plumbing? Most campsites have above-grade water in hoses available to campers, so they more or less have to close for the winter. You would need something more permanent. I would try mobile home parks. They are open all year (I'm not sure what they would think of renting to an RV instead of a MH?!?)

We have a friend that returns to Winnipeg each spring for a few months - they reside in an RV park for five months. I could ask them for their park's name when he gets here and email you back if you want.
