Wilderness Village Memberships
Wilderness Village offers two types of membership for access to its facilities: Full Shareholding (long-term) membership and Season’s Pass (short-term) membership.
A common misconception is that having a membership guarantees a permanent, static campsite. However, with nearly 800 members and only 424 campsites, this is not possible at our Resort. As a Member, you are always guaranteed a place to camp, but we do not reserve specific campsites for individuals.
When you visit the Resort, you are required to occupy your RV for the duration of your stay on a campsite. Additionally, the RV must be returned to the storage compound at the end of your stay. If you prefer to tow your own RV, you are welcome to do so. However, if you’d like us to move your RV for you, there is a fee for this service.
Full Shareholding Membership
A Full Shareholding Membership is sold as a lifetime membership plus 20 years. The 20-year portion can be willed, sold, or transferred when you are ready to retire from the Resort. This membership grants access to 180 nights per year across all seasons, if you choose.
Your primary RV may be stored in our compound year-round, and you will have access to firewood and various amenities. This lifetime membership lasts for your entire lifetime and does not impose a limit on the number of years, unlike some other memberships. It provides a lifetime term with a shareholding status, meaning you have a say in important decisions made for our not-for-profit Resort, such as voting on capital expenditures and Board of Directors elections. Shareholders may also run for the Board, which is a voluntary position.
Membership Cost:
- $30,612.50 (includes share and GST)
- Annual Maintenance Dues: Currently $1,575 plus GST (payable annually in January)
Privileges include:

Transferable 20-Year Term:
- The membership includes a fully transferable 20-year term, which can be sold or transferred when you are ready to retire from the Resort.
Financing Option:
- Financing may be available through the Rocky Credit Union.
Alternative Payment Option (Non-financed):
- $29,250.00 plus GST, payable in full at the time of purchase (no financing options for this payment method).
Season Pass Membership
A Season Pass is valid from May 1 to October 2 for the year it is purchased, allowing for up to 154 nights of camping during this period. Your primary RV may be stored at the Resort during this time, but it must be removed by October 2.
This membership provides a single-season, short-term type of membership from May 2 to October 1, offering many of the privileges of a Full Membership, including:
- Primary RV storage during the term
- No nightly camping fees
- Guaranteed spot, especially on long weekends
Maintenance dues and AGM voting rights do not apply to Season Passes.
Cost: $5,500.00 plus GST
Membership Restrictions
The Full Shareholding Membership is non-transferable to independent adult children, extended family members, business partners, or anyone outside of a civil union. It is intended for the primary Member and their immediate family, with dependent children only.
If you have any other questions or need further clarification, feel free to reach out. We are happy to assist you.
Member StaysMembers (Full Shareholding or Season Pass) of Wilderness Village do not currently have to make reservations as they all have electronic gate cards to access the resort at any time they choose. Arrangements do have to be made in advance for optional services to be performed such as towing, septic pumping and site plowing (during the winter months). Members must book these services by 4 PM the day prior they are required. To make these arrangements members may call our office (403) 845-2145 or Email us. |
