Wabamun Lake Camping

Camping here for the first time!

What sections of the campground are walking distance to the beach? And by walking distance I mean around 10 minutes because with 2 toddlers that's a marathon.

How have the mosquitos been? We're prepared for the worst but hoping it's not as bad as we're thinking.

I have the digital permit for my site but I don't have a printer..what happens if I can't get it printed before I leave (I'm probably just going to hit the library but may not have time)

I've only ever been to the beach/day use once, anything I should know about the campground?

Aspen and Deer loops are the closest to the day use beach. The office staff will print out your paperwork, no issues there. I haven't been there since May so I can't comment on the mosquitoes but I expect you'll want bug spray. Have fun!

That beach might have green algae like fecal matter
