Traveling to Candle Lake by RV

Candle Lake is reached via Highway 120, which branches north from Highway 55 east of the city of Prince Albert. The road is paved and handles RVs of all sizes well, though it's a two-lane highway with limited passing opportunities, so be patient behind slower vehicles. Prince Albert, about 80 km to the southwest, is the nearest city with full services -- fuel stations, grocery stores, Canadian Tire, and RV supply shops are all available there. Fill up your fuel tank and buy everything you need before heading to the lake, as services at the Candle Lake resort community are limited in selection and priced at a seasonal premium. The resort community has a small general store and a fuel station for basics, but the selection is understandably limited for a seasonal lakeside community. Cell service works in the main resort area and along the highway, but it drops off at some of the more remote campgrounds scattered around the lake. Watch for wildlife on Highway 120, particularly deer and moose during dawn and dusk hours -- collisions are a real risk on this stretch.
