Explore the Melville Area

Melville's campground is a comfortable stop for RVers heading through eastern Saskatchewan. The town is quieter than the bigger centres on the Yellowhead Highway, which means less noise and more relaxed camping. Arriving mid-week guarantees availability, though summer weekends usually have open sites too.

The Railway Museum is worth a stop if you're interested in Canadian railway history -- it's a unique piece of Saskatchewan's past. The town's outdoor pool is open through summer and is a welcome option for families traveling with kids.

Water quality from the town supply is fine for drinking, though a filter improves the taste. If you need to dump your tanks, the campground facilities handle that on-site. Stock up on fuel here if you're heading south on Highway 47 toward the Qu'Appelle Valley, as services thin out between towns in that direction.
