And We’ve Been Making Memories for Generations of

Families Just Like Yours.

It’s Because We’re The Best Christina Lake Campground.

So, what makes Skands the best campground in Christina Lake? Sure, the lake right outside your front door is a big part of it. But what truly sets us apart is the people. For over five decades, families have found their sanctuary here, drawn back by the enchanting allure of this beloved lake and the magic that happens when you first camp at Skands Campground. Childhood adventures spent here become traditions carried into adulthood, fostering lifelong friendships within the campground community.

We’re not for everyone – our sites are close together, and our facilities are basic and, as some may say, old-school. But they’re incredibly clean, offering a blank slate for making memories. It’s part of our charm. We’ve stripped things down to the essentials: quality time with your loved ones. It’s all about connection - being together as a family, making new friends, and creating memories that last a lifetime.

Whether it's your first visit or your 33rd, this is more than a campground; it's a part of your family's story, a home away from home where the laughter of generations blends seamlessly with the lapping waves and rustling leaves.

Join us for a summer of magic, a return to what matters most, and the promise of many more cherished years camping by the lake.

Camp at Skands in Christina Lake

Skands Campground is the perfect mix of relaxation, family fun, and adventure. Imagine waking up just steps from the pristine lakefront, coffee in hand as you sit at the beach and watch the campground come to life, your boat tied up at the dock and ready to take the kids for a rip around the lake. Or maybe it is pedalling your bike up to the trails while the rest of the family is still asleep. Or maybe it truly is, the early bird gets the worm, getting out on the boat when the fish are biting. Ending the day sitting around the campfire as a family, young and old, eating s’mores and sharing stories about the day at the lake.

With 84 RV and tent campsites, we offer a blend of lakefront living and convenience. Enjoy free hot showers, onsite laundry facilities, boat moorage and essential amenities, like free wifi, ensuring your stay is nothing short of exceptional.
