We had looked at this place, but ruled it out as it was 4 hours from SE Calgary. If you are on the west end of town, you'd be looking at just under 3.5 hours.

Power, water and sewer for $2000 per year. Lots of good lakes nearby.
The downsides, the sites are a little close together, and highway 93 is right beside the park.

We also looked at this place which is closer; just over 2 hours.

Once again has power, water and sewer. However we found the sites too close together, and the price is starting to creep up there at $3000 per year.

Myself, we ended up going with a place without services. We get enough power from our solar panels, and both the place we were at for 2016 as well as our new place for 2017 have water delivery for $10 and sewer pumpout for $25. We found that worked out better as we ended up in a much more private spot with more mature trees (nothing had to be ripped out for water and power lines.)
