CanaDream

We rented a camper van for our tour of the Canadian Rockies.


I searched on Motorhome Republic and rented from CanaDream. They will pick you up at the airport. You can pick up your motor home from 1pm-4pm. If you want to pick it up at other times, there will be an additional charge.

We arranged to pick up the van at 1 pm. It took a little over 1 1/2 hours to go over how to operate the van.


We got the Deluxe Van Camper. It is perfect for 2 people and is small enough that it fits in a parking spot.

There is a Costco at 11588 Sarcee Trail NW. We picked up groceries for the week, including salad packages with dressing, a rotisserie chicken, prepared smoked pulled pork, packaged chicken taco and steaks. It was also a good place to gas up since the van only had a half tank of gas.

There is a Walmart less than 10 minutes from Costco. We picked up lawn chairs (CAD9.97), a portable grill (CAD8.98) and bottled water. Alternatively, you can rent lawn chairs from CanaDream for CAD10.


The camper had a large refrigerator, 2-burner stove and microwave.


The seating area converts to a king-size bed.


We ordered the convenience package (CAD95/person), which included sheets, pillows & pillow cases, blankets and towels as well as kitchen supplies. You can find a full list here: https://www.canadream.com/faqs/additional-rental-items/canadream-convenience-kits/


There is a bathroom with a handheld shower. You get 1 roll of toilet paper and 1 toilet tablet (to be inserted into the toilet after you empty the tank).

There was a TV and DVD player. The van also had air conditioning and heat. We did turn on the heat one night when it started to snow.
