McCreedy Park

2nd and 3rd Generation page

McCreedy Park: Now is the time to share positive and encouraging posts on this campground. This is a very convenient campground found on the other side of the bridge. In 1981 and 1982, the campground was there, newly built, but I don’t remember it as being very regulated and supervised. There were times when the word would get out that a party was happening at the campground and we would just drive right in at night and find a site, start a campfire, play some music on our car stereos and crack open a case of beer and wait to see other friends who set up shop in nearby campsites. one time I brought a small grill and started grilling pork chops at night. There was no one stopping us. I suppose it became more regulated as the years went on. Today it looks like a fine campground. There are some good reviews online. The managers actually pet sit while campers take the train to Churchill. I wish our town had a such a campground. Dauphin Manitoba has a wonderful campground right in the middle of town too. Who remembers McCreedy campground in the 80’s? Was it like the Wild West? Did you attend any parties there? Did anyone camp there? What about today?

We stayed here with a caravan. Owners grouped us in a large lot with 30 amp power. We were able to dump and fill water both before and after parking here. Beware that mosquitoes and black flies can be bad at this time of year, so bring your spray. Owners were very attentive, treated us very well in addition to watching over our rigs while we were in Churchill. No wifi at campground, but able to use wifi at Tim Hortons or McDonalds in town. ATT (Rogers) phone service did work here. We camped at McCreedy Campground in a Motorhome.

Our site (#24) was a gravel back-in which we chose to pull into instead due to the electric connection and the site not being level. The shared power pedestal had one 30 amp connection upside down. A table and fire grill included in the site. There was even a large load of wood left behind by an earlier camper. The owner told me he doesn’t usually supply firewood. There is a dump station and fresh water available. TV was 1 channel off the antenna. Wi-Fi may be available now as that is what I am using to type this review. I would come here again if in the area. We camped at McCreedy Campground in a Motorhome.

We stayed here in a caravan as a jumping off point for the train to Churchill to see the polar bears so I don’t know how much it costs. The owners are incredibly helpful and will take care of your pets and take you to the train or airport, There may be water and sewer in the summer but in Oct we were only able to dump and fill our tanks before or after leaving sites. It’s near the Burntwood River so in the summer, it’s probably a good spot. Just wanted to alert RVers that there was a CG in Thompson besides the provincial park. Admin note: No sewer at site and only 2 water hookups. Open May-Oct. We camped at McCreedy Campground in a Motorhome.

We stopped here in Thompson, Manitoba with Fantasy RV Tours Polar Bear Tour to Churchill Manitoba. The campground provides 30 AMP power and a dump site with fresh water available. The best bonus is the pet sitting availability for our dog and cat! If you are fortunate to be in a site with a view of the River, you can watch seaplanes take off and land.
