Across reviews, Sundance By Basecamp stands out for its scenic riverside mountain setting, cozy glamping tents with comfy beds, and friendly, supportive staff, creating a fun, family‑friendly outdoor experience that feels close to nature without full DIY camping.
Many reviews praise clean, well-kept grounds, hot showers, private sites, and a handy trading post with basics. However, several guests struggled with kerosene heaters (odor, setup, or insufficient warmth), and shared washrooms can feel limited, far from some sites, or not clean enough during busy times. Some also note highway noise, bumpy internal roads, and occasional lapses in noise enforcement or check‑in/after‑hours support, plus mismatches between third‑party listings and the actual tent type or inclusions. Expect a rustic, scenic glamping stay with basic facilities rather than full hotel conveniences.

We rented 2 trapper tents for our family trip, and they were so comfortable. Nice and warm, great set up. The campsite has gorgeous views of the mountains right along the river. Having hot showers was such a bonus. Will definitely be back.

We stayed in a clamping tent September 16-20 for our 26th wedding anniversary. We had a great time! Very comfy bed, soft linens/ comforter. The little kerosene heater was just right. The staff were wonderful and even helped us out with propane when we unexpectedly ran out. Showers were hot and excellent pressure. My only complaint would be the many potholes on the roads through the campground. Other than that, 10/10 would stay here again!

We had a great time at Sundance - I wish we could have stayed longer. The glamping tent was beautiful and cozy, and the heater ensured we didn't get cold at night. Check-in and check-out was made simple through their app, and the staff made sure to follow-up with us by phone since we were arriving late. Despite our late arrival we found the place easily and the detailed instructions sent out by email made it easy for us to find our campsite and settle in. The only thing that's a bit difficult is the bathroom situation - if you're far from an outhouse or the main washrooms it can be a bit of a nuisance - but that's part of camp life/forest living! The trading post has everything you need for fire-starting and all other conveniences that you may have forgotten, such as snacks, toothpaste, shampoo, etc. The large field games area is cute. There aren't any places nearby to buy groceries or food though, so you should prepare to bring that if you're going to stay on-site (we mainly slept there as we were traveling around the area during the day and mostly ate out). Lovely place! Was peaceful and quiet. Very family-friendly.

This was a lovely experience. The "glamping" cabin was lovely. The staff were very helpful with explaining how to start a fire. There was a path to a beautiful river with multiple adirondack chairs on which to sit & relax. And... my Verizon had service!

Great staff, the glamping tent was exactly as described, bed was super comfy. The kerosene heater did well until it snowed and got quite cold to be in a glamping tent. But the weather aside, the staff were amazing, washroom/showers were clean and well stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash, outhouses were kept tidy and well stocked with toilet paper. 10/10 would and will come back in warmer months or with more foresight into the forecast if coming back in late fall/early winter

The glamping tent was fun and the bed was comfortable. Enjoyed having a fire with the cute red chairs. The tent was definitely not seam sealed and saw many bugs inside. There didn’t seem to be a proper amount of bathrooms stalls for the size of the campground and the bathroom was constantly wet and very humid. There was a line for the bathroom most of the time. Pretty setting though, enjoyed it overall.

An easy location for family camping. Traffic can be a bit loud. Prices are quite high for what it is full glamping sites are compare to the same price spent for 2 nights here. That being said The sites are quite private. Lots of great places to explore nearby. They could definitely benefit from more showers with that amount of families staying there.(The lines are very long.)The staff were friendly and my kids enjoyed the store shopping for treasures.

The Glamping tent we rented was awesome! The bed was so cozy and we loved the covered cooking area and counters! I did notice spiderwebs in the antler chandelier when we arrived, so it would be good for the cleaning crew to dust those. The kerosene heater worked against itself a bit. Because its smelly and bad to breath in we had to ventilate the tent by opening the zipper windows slightly. So the tent didnt get as warm as it could have. The second night there were people playing music and laughing till midnight which kept us awake so both my husband and I had a poor nights sleep that night. You can hear the highway traffic so if you prefer no sounds like this a further from the highway location would be preferable. Besides these couple of things, overall our stay was very enjoyable and we will likely be back again!

We loved it here!! Stayed in a glamping tent that came with the bed made and it was super cozy. Linens, beds, and pillows were top notch and the tent had a heater if needed. Lamps and phone chargers were a nice touch. Clean bathrooms, super hot showers, has shampoo conditioner and body wash in them. Trading post is cute, staff is excellent. Gorgeous sites - trees separate them and not too close to others. Would 100% stay here again.

Family tent was an amazing experience! The ambience itself was great and it also had a few amenities like USB outlets and wireless chargers within the tent. The fire place couldn't heat up the tent properly so we were shivering after midnight once the firewood burned out.

I really enjoyed my stay overall. The glamping tent is set up beautifully and the property was easy to navigate. The staff and selection at the office/shop was great. The bathroom situation is like summer camp, fairly clean but very run down and it seemed rather small for the amount of visitors. My biggest complaint and the reason I wouldn’t recommend this property to my girlfriends or families at this time is that there is no lock on the door of the tent, which is totally insane in 2025. It would be so inexpensive to add an interior clasp lock to the door and frame so that if you’re a solo female traveller you could rest easy. This is a safety thing plain and simple and in my mind unacceptable

Tepee entrance is too small. Couldn’t bring my bag inside so had to unpack on the picnic table. Luckily it wasn’t raining. Strong smell of kerosene from the heater. Property was clean, staff was very helpful. Would go back to try the prospector tents but wouldn’t recommend the tepees.

Would not recommend with children. The tipi was not ideal for rainy days there were some leaks and the floor was soaked. There was black mould in there and the washrooms/outhouses were too far away. Not worth the small fortune it cost to camp. Save $ and pitch a tent in Banff or Canmore

We had a horrible experience at Sundance. We pre registered with the link provided but when we arrived we found the on site reception closed two hours earlier than was posted online. The phone number they had provided for 24 hour reception went to voicemail and we had no way to complete our check in. The level of organization and customer service is sorely lacking.

I regret to share that our stay here on fists night was extremely uncomfortable due to the heater in the tent not functioning properly. We were with our young child, and unfortunately, she was unable to fall asleep until around 3 a.m. because of the cold. Eventually, we had no choice but to take her to the car, where we spent the rest of the night sleeping in the vehicle. As you can imagine, this was not what we expected or hoped for, and it was quite distressing for us as a family. Due to this experience, we have decided not to continue with the remaining two nights of our reservation. We kindly requested a refund for the unused nights, as we were unable to enjoy the full experience due to the heating issue, which made the tent unsuitable for our stay, especially with a child involved. Contacted them twice and they said they’ll call back. But didn’t receive a call yet. Sent them 2 emails. No reply yet for any email. Very disappointed.

We stayed in a trapper tent and it was nice. We enjoyed how quiet and clean the area was. The only issue we had was the kerosene heater did not light properly and gassed out the tent, it was close to the office closing and I sent my teens to run to the office to get help and they refused to open the door and talk to them even though they were waving their arms and clearly in distress. We had to evacuate our tent and wait hours for the smell to dissipate holding a sleeping toddler because the staff did not respond to us or provide any kind of help with the heater. It was a very long name cold night following.

I stayed here for two nights with my dog and, unfortunately, I’m not sure I would return. We were placed in a type of tent I hadn’t expected—one that required a walk-in—despite having packed to live out of my trunk. Our site was also directly beside an incredibly loud family (playing booktapes and full volume, fighting, letting their kid wander into my site, etc.), which made it difficult to even stay at the site (I would've left, but nothing was available in the area) The manager was unavailable until day 2, and although the staff were polite, they weren’t able to offer any real help (why not move me to another available site, let me use the wagon to carry stuff in, etc.). The next morning I asked to speak to the manager, and though she apologized and let me know the noisy family was leaving, she did not offer any discount or refund despite the disruption. The first half of my stay felt completely overshadowed by the noise and the lack of support. I want to support this business, but it didn’t feel like they cared about my experience, and their minimal efforts did not compensate for the terrible first night

I want to support this business, but it didn’t feel like they cared about my experience, and their minimal efforts did not compensate for the terrible first night

Great service at the lodge. Accoms were well-appointed, clean and not too close together. The surroundings were beautiful. We were very happy to have chosen Sundance by Basecamp for our time in Kananaskis!

Location
Scenic riverside mountain setting close to Kananaskis trails, village, and attractions. Some cite highway noise and rough access roads, and the area lacks nearby groceries or dining.

Magical New Year's stay! Spent two fantastic nights here. Everything was perfect: the amazing location, the beautiful and cozy tents, and the incredibly friendly staff. Could not have asked for a better glamping experience. 100% recommend!

I loved how easy check in and check out were and that I could do them easily by phone. The campsite was quiet even though it was fairly visit. The areas around our site were beautiful. Would definitely recommend to others.

We had a great time at Sundance - I wish we could have stayed longer. The glamping tent was beautiful and cozy, and the heater ensured we didn't get cold at night. Check-in and check-out was made simple through their app, and the staff made sure to follow-up with us by phone since we were arriving late. Despite our late arrival we found the place easily and the detailed instructions sent out by email made it easy for us to find our campsite and settle in. The only thing that's a bit difficult is the bathroom situation - if you're far from an outhouse or the main washrooms it can be a bit of a nuisance - but that's part of camp life/forest living! The trading post has everything you need for fire-starting and all other conveniences that you may have forgotten, such as snacks, toothpaste, shampoo, etc. The large field games area is cute. There aren't any places nearby to buy groceries or food though, so you should prepare to bring that if you're going to stay on-site (we mainly slept there as we were traveling around the area during the day and mostly ate out). Lovely place! Was peaceful and quiet. Very family-friendly.

A beautiful setting. The trapper's cabin tent was great. The staff were friendly and helpful. The sites are lovely. Just two problems: The roads are atrocious. Giant potholes you can fall into in the dark. Second problem: on two occasions in two days no toilet paper in the ladies toilets. Other than that , wonderful.

We stayed in a family Tipi. It was awesome. Campsites are quite big. Super clean area. Close to the river which has lots of nice seats to just chill there. WE were hiking Mist mountain so this was a perfect location to stay at. Lots of great hikes close by. Troll falls which is a great family hike is close by. Kananaskis village is very close by too within 7 minutes drive. I highly recommend staying here. We went and checked out the Trappers tents too. All are very cool

An easy location for family camping. Traffic can be a bit loud. Prices are quite high for what it is full glamping sites are compare to the same price spent for 2 nights here. That being said The sites are quite private. Lots of great places to explore nearby. They could definitely benefit from more showers with that amount of families staying there.(The lines are very long.)The staff were friendly and my kids enjoyed the store shopping for treasures.

This is a place for camping, you'll need to bring or rent stuff to cook, sleep, etc. If you have they clear, then you'll have a great time. The tents are well maintained and mear yhe office they have a small store to get some last minute items. Each tent has its own parking, fire pit and in common areas they have games.

There is nothing around the area. Bring your own food, blankets (they rent them) anything you can think of using for being comfortable. I loved it. This place is designed to live like in the woods with a bit of comfort, but you make the comfort. Amazing place by the river, with excellent Northern Lights view, full moon view and amazing mountains around. Totally recommend for anyone looking to experience camping with comfort. They have shared showers and the cleanliness was above expectations for a place like this. Amazing for kids, family, pets. I totally recommend this experience and this place. They were very informative the whole time. There is a bbq for each tent and heater is also provided. But as I said, if you like comfort, do a bit more of research and bring your own. Even a sleeping bag if needed. We went in september and it was already getting cold so plan in advance.

The tent was a fair size and liked that it had a solid door. The site was well treed and aside from a lot of road noise, the area was relatively quiet. The bathrooms were far which was a bit of an inconvenience especially late at night. The main washrooms and showers were clean and well maintained. We usually stay at Pomeroy in Kananskis and were able to quickly hop over for supper and enjoy their property and amenities. It is a quick drive to Canmore and we were able to get out to the Nordic Center and SUP the lake.
