The Onanole RV Park and Campground is set within large and majestic trees, [Spruce, Poplar, Birch, Tamarack]
bordering (5 km to Clear Lake Beach) Riding Mountain National Park, numerous other lakes, hiking trails within
the National Park, numerous golf courses and the towns of Wasagaming and Onanole (CLEAR LAKE) featuring
tons of local attractions, activities, movie nights, restaurants and other destination experiences, mostly
because of the National Park.
Truly a desired destination for visitors from Winnipeg, Regina, Brandon, Dauphin and many other smaller towns in western Manitoba and eastern Saskatchewan.
The Resort features ALL fully serviced sites (Power/Water/Sewer), drinking water, Wi-Fi throughout, a
saltwater swimming pool and salt water hot tub (Spa), playgrounds, modern washrooms, a volleyball court
area, and plenty of hiking trails nearby, fire pits and picnic tables, firewood, vending machines, ice, laundry
facilities and more.
The campground footprint on the 40.75 acre property also has not been fully utilized by the existing RV Sites
and there is excellent potential for future growth and expandability. There is plenty of area available should
the purchaser choose to expand the campground with additional sites, cabins, or other facilities.
EXISTING AMENITIES
• Campground Permit - a regulatory challenge in today’s environmental world, with respect to municipal,
provincial, water stewardship, septic, local landowners etc. Obtaining a new campground permit is a
multi-year process with significant cost and very little guarantees.
• Signage (highway and secondary) - permits and applications were required, along with local bylaws.
• Campground maintains memberships such as MACAP (Manitoba Association of Campgrounds and
Parks), CCRVA (Canadian Camping and RV Association),
• Campground maintains advertising and marketing in papers and travel magazines.
Many years of "word of mouth” advertising and return customers adds to the turnkey operation.
• Currently zoned as Rural Agricultural (RA) with a special authorization, the landowner can ask for re-
zoning to "Recreational" (a NEW Zone allocation/classification developed by the Rural Municipality RM) from Rural Agricultural (RA) with a special authorization that is currently grandfathered. Recreational zoning
allows for multiple activities with multiple land uses (pitch and putt, horseback, go carts, pickle ball,
etc.).
• Long Term Potential - Ability to eventually subdivide Campground Property into 1-2 acre lots. Would
require application approval for subdivision. Currently local land (lots) immediately adjacent to the
campground are selling for 50-70K each. Note that this zoned Agricultural land is truly not agricultural and is trapped between a residential area and a Wildlife Management Area (WMA), so there is potential to begin the
process.
• Ability to expand campground.
• Campground borders Wildlife Management Area (WMA) which is also attached to Riding Mountain
National Park and connects to trail systems.
• Changing the way the campground operates from fully seasonal only camping to overnight camping [or
a blend] as well as the way the cabins are rented makes a significant contribution to the value estimate
as well.
• Annual Seasonal Site fees follow typical expense increases and other local area rates - typically 5% -6%
per year.
• Steel roofs protect all buildings.
• RM Plans include paving roads up to a few hundred meters from the campground entrance.
• Trees onsite provide the bulk of firewood supplies.
• Campground is located at the "end of the road" so no traffic passes therefore it is a very quiet area.
• There are two “seasonal” rental cabins and one cabin at the office known as the "office cabin."
• All cabins are fully furnished with beds, fridges, microwaves, living room furniture, televisions, etc.
• One of the two rental cabins is usable year-round but only gets used in summer camping season currently
(approximately 60% occupancy).
• The office cabin is also usable year-round but only gets used in summer camping season
(approximately 60% occupancy). Or can be used by a campground manager/couple.
• The Park Model cabin is a 3-season cabin although it could be modified.
• Cabins can be rented year-round, monthly, or short term.
• Campground has successfully operated for 30 years.
• Trade Name “Onanole RV Park & Campground” registered. Web page is CampingManitoba.com
Note that the Campground season is approximately May 10 to September 10 of any year (approx. 120
“camping days”) or four (4) months. All of these assessment numbers only reflect these four months of
revenue. The other eight months of the year the campground operator/owner can easily engage in other local
activities such as snow removal, construction trades opportunities and other revenue generating activities.
Existing facilities may be used to create even more revenue opportunities, and this would also enhance the
value considerations. This includes equipment such as Bobcats, attachments, trailers, shops, hoists etc. that
have enormous value outside of the campground operations.
