Manitoba Visitor Centre | Informal Campsite

Great spot for a night! As of Nov. 2023, the visitor center is closed until next year but the washrooms (flush toilet, hot water to wash hands) are still open. We stayed in the parking lot with a few other big rigs on our journey cross country.

Have spent a few nights here over the years traveling across Canada, latest one being tonight. Great place to stop and rest if tired when driving. Lots of big trucks and don't hear too much from the #1.

We slept here one night, it's perfect !
Not too noisy as the train didn't pass during the night.
Plenty of space.

What has been said is still true. Just wanted to reconfirm

Rest stop for many trucks, saw a few other vehicles stopping bf or the night. Loud, with lots of white noise with the truckers. A decent spot for a quick sleep right off the highway.

Good for one night when traveling through. Clean Washrooms. Can get a but noisy with semi trucks but we just moved to the front of the building and had a great sleep!

Good spot to stay for the night. We parked behind the center. Woke up to a lot full of semis but we didn't heard them pull in.

Nice place. A little loud if trucks present.

Really a great spot. Bathrooms clean and right at hand. Really busy when I stopped, but quiet. Feels like a safe spot for a sleep.

Perfect for one night ! No noise if you park behind the centre. Beside the fields. Nice and clean toilets.

Halte routière avec toilettes. Très très propre! Le stationnement arrière est tranquille et nous entendons moins la route que celui d’en avant.

Big parking lot behind the visitor centre. Lots of transport trucks park here so it was a bit noisy. Not exactly a "nice" campsite, but fine for one night when trekking across the country. Bathrooms were clean enough.

As advertised, a visitor center with lots of parking. Semi trucks in the back. Fine for an overnight stay but it's nothing special.

Rest stop just off the highway beside the visitor centre which is closed for the season. Toilets were open throughout the night - really nice, bright and clean. Picnic tables and garbage. Abit of noise from the highway traffic closeby.

Parking lot behind the Visitor Centre.
Lot of trucks during the night.
No problem at all for a overnight stay with our van.
Calm place, you can hear the train but it's not super loud!

Lots of space for trucks and vans. Right next to the Trans-Canada so great for an overnight stop. Toilets were also very clean and there was average WiFi. Trains were also very loud, so that's why the slightly lower rating

Parfait pour une nuit.
Perfect for one night.
