Seasonal rates range from C$2,000 to C$2,200 depending on the site, while daily rates vary from C$39.28 in the low season to C$61.89 at peak.

An Alberta Employment Standards Appeal Body has rejected a worker's overtime claim against an Edson, Alta., RV park, finding his account of working 12-hour days, seven days a week not credible. The appeal by 1701104 Alberta Ltd., owner of Edson RV Park & Campground, overturned a July 2025 order for $22,230 in overtime, $3,225 in wages, $681 in vacation pay, and $1,107.86 in general holiday pay. The worker, employed from October 2023 to August 2024 as a 'park supervisor' or 'park manager,' performed mostly janitorial and maintenance duties, which the body said did not qualify as managerial.

By August, over 30 bookings had been made, drawing visitors from across the province. Rates are $40-$45 per night. Amenities include outhouses, but no water on site, so visitors must bring their own. The campground also serves as a pilot for future projects, including cabin and yurt rentals.

The Tourist Campground Licensing Bylaw will be discussed again on Sept. 8, when an Ontario council decides whether to refer the issue to the incoming council elected in October. The bylaw would likely strengthen the township's ability to issue, revoke and amend operational licenses for campgrounds, creating a new licensing framework in addition to the regulatory system in place since 2021. Camping In Ontario (CIO), an advocacy group for private and public campgrounds, has criticized the bylaw and has been involved in its development for three years.
