I’m one of the two people working on Campnab. I like to run, ski, bike, and camp with my family and friends. (I love saunas.)

Find me:

Are you dreaming of pitching your tent in the wilderness, gathering around a roaring campfire, and gazing at the starry Manitoba sky? You aren’t alone! Manitoba’s Provincial Parks offer a way to escape your busy life and connect with friends in the great outdoors.

But what if you’ve discovered that your ideal campsite is already booked? Don’t lose hope—Campnab is here to help you find a spot, even if your favourite park is sold out!

Unlock the secret to scoring the best campsites in Manitoba!

We understand the challenge: Coveted campsites are in high demand and often sell out within minutes of becoming available. But there’s a silver lining! As summer approaches, some campers’ plans change, leading to cancelled reservations and newly available campsites.

You could just refresh the park’s reservation website, hoping to spot a new opening. But why go through the hassle when Campnab can do the heavy lifting for you?

Campnab is your personal campsite scout and alert system

Here’s how Campnab works: Simply specify your desired camping dates and the provincial park you wish to visit, and Campnab’s system will take it from there. It diligently monitors the booking system at regular intervals. Once a campsite becomes available, it’ll send you an alert via text message or email!

Then, the ball is in your court: Click on the provided link to check if the site is still available and review the details to ensure it meets your needs. If it’s right for you, go ahead and book it! (Please note that while Campnab alerts you to availabilities, the actual booking process is entirely up to you.)

Be a champion of the camping community: cancel your unused reservations

A special reminder to all our camping friends: If your plans change and you’re unable to use your camping reservation, please take a moment to cancel it.

By doing so, you’ll open up the opportunity for another camper to enjoy the great outdoors, and that’s a wonderful way to support the camping community! You’ll also help the parks generate added revenue—which helps support the places we love.

So, fellow camping fanatics, the wilderness is calling! Will you answer? Let Campnab guide you to your perfect campsite, and let’s make this summer one to remember!
