(53.35856407560284, -114.07344423723289)
This is 30-40 mins west of Edmonton depending where you're coming from.

The best way to get to the resort from Edmonton is the Anthony Henday (216) south and exiting at Maskekosihk Trail . From there you follow the road that turns into 23 ave and then highway 627. Drive on the 627 for most of the trip then take a left onto range road 12. You will take a right at township road 512 and then a left at range road 13. You will follow range road 13 until you see our sign on the left hand side and follow the road into our driveway.

There is a large groomed path that is a bit of a hike, and a steeper path that is direct to the lower level.

Our lower level domes offer a backcountry glamping experience. We advise all guests to come with what they are prepared to hike downhill with.

We strongly advise that if any guests have mobility issues, have trouble walking, have flare up during physical activity and are pregnant to camp on the upper level as the lower level is not as accessible as the upper level and offers a backcountry walk in experience.

No! Our hot tub can fit 6 guests at a time and the sauna can fit 4 guests. Often the sauna is a private slot as it does not hold many guests.

Hot tub times are open to anyone as long as there are no more than 6 guests.

Each time slot is 50 minutes long.

We have 10 glamping accomodations and 2 tree tents in total. Each can hold 2-3 guests and the family domes can hold 4-6 people.

Urban River Adventures provides tents fully equipped with quality camping gear.
We currently have:
10 Glamping tents - 8 dome style & 2 family dome
2 Tree Tents - These are the elevated, hammock-like, tents suspended in the trees.
1 Cabin

All of our Glamping accomodations are spacious enough to add a twin bed. If you have three people, please change guests number to 3 or reach out to add an additonal guest after initial reservation.

Yes, kids are welcome. They must be under very close supervision by their parents. We can add a bed to any of the glamping tents to include an additional child or the kids can have their own tent in close proximity to the parents. Kids older than 16 can come on a camping trip with a waiver signed by their parents. Kids under 16 must have parents accompany them.

We charge $75 for a twin bed to be added to any of our accommodations to accommodate 3 guests. However, two children under the age of 12 can share the twin bed for no additional fee. We do not charge for children 3 and under.

All of our tents are double occupancy. This means that 2 people can sleep in every type of tent. The Glamping domes are spacious enough to add a single bed and this can be done at an additional cost of $75/night or $142.50/night for VIP.

After careful consideration, we have decided to not allow any pets.

There are moose, deer, coyotes, porcupine, beaver, eagles, hawks, rabbits, squirrels and many varieties of birds. Humans are great at watching and observing and dogs are not. Small dogs can be snatched by eagles and coyotes or get porcupine quills in their face. Dogs who aren't familiar with river swimming can be taken away by the current and require rescue. We may allow dogs in the future on leash but we need to establish a level of comfort with the animals who are already on the property first.

The entrance to our tree tents are on the side or bottom. They hang 2-5 feet above the ground for easy access unless otherwise requested. They are similar to sleeping in a hammock and have a max weight with gear of 800lbs and sleep 3 comfortably.

We have sourced the best quality Tree Tents and they have a capacity of 800lbs. That includes 2-3 people and all their gear.

All ages are welcome in all of our tents. Age requirements for tree tenting are based on parents' discretion.

You may bring wine or beer. We just ask you to please limit consumption to your site and that glass bottles are avoided.

Some groups have one or two children but there definitely aren't any party groups. If there is a group booking we will ensure to keep them separate. The tents are distanced, and the river makes noise so even if people were playing music and talking loud, you should not be able to hear them.

Absolutely! Feel free to bring your own water toys. We just ask you have your own life jackets as well. Our river access is on the lower level so we recommend guests with paddle-boards/kayaks to drive to either Constable Chelsey Robinson Park or Genesse Bridge and get in the water there.
