Aurora Outdoors · How it works

From first question to Monday return

A camping weekend in eight plain steps. You choose the campsite and set up camp. Aurora prepares the gear, hands it over on Friday and takes it back on Monday.

Never camped before? This is written for you.

Before you request

Two decisions come first

Choose your weekend

Two Camper $249 · Family & Friends $329

Pick the package that fits your group, not the one with the most gear.

​

  • Two Camper: for 2 campers, currently with a Coleman Skydome 4-person tent

  • Family & Friends: for up to 5 campers, currently with a NEMO Aurora Highrise 6P tent

  • Each booked camper gets a sleeping bag, a self-inflating mat and a camp chair

  • An Additional Tent (+$50) adds room or privacy, not campers

  • Pet dogs are $40 per booking, for one or two dogs 

Book your campsite

You reserve it directly with the park or campground

Book the campsite before you send your request, so you know your dates and destination.

​

  • Aurora does not book campsites or deliver to campgrounds

  • You pay the campground directly, and its fees and cancellations stay between you and the campground

  • Follow the campground's rules, including its pet rules

  • Not sure where to go? Explore the North has ideas close to Greater Sudbury 

Tip: compare your campground's check-in and check-out times with the Friday handoff and Monday return before you book.

Requesting a weekend

A request starts a conversation, not a booking

Send a request

Tell Aurora your package, your weekend, your campsite and whether you want delivery or pickup. Sending a request does not reserve your date.

Aurora reviews it

Aurora checks availability and your details, then contacts you with next steps. Nothing is booked until Aurora confirms it with you.

Hold your date and sign

For 2027 weekends booked through December 31, 2026, a $50 payment holds your date. By April 1, 2027, total paid reaches 50% of the rental price, and the balance is due by handoff or delivery, as shown on your final invoice. You also sign Aurora's rental agreement and waiver.

The weekend

Friday to Monday, at the campsite you booked

Friday handoff

  • Free home delivery within Sudbury, or free pickup by appointment

  • Delivery fees apply to surrounding communities, confirmed before your booking is finalized

  • Handoff is around 4 PM, and the time can shift when reasonable

  • The person receiving the gear must be 18 or older

  • Aurora may ask to see photo ID 

At camp, it is yours

  • You pitch the tent and set up camp yourselves

  • Follow your campground's rules

  • Keep every supplied propane cylinder with the kit

  • Children stay under adult supervision

  • Aurora offers reasonable, non-emergency support with the equipment 

Monday return

  • Return is around noon on Monday, or as arranged

  • Return the full kit, including every propane cylinder, used or not

  • Gear that is wet from normal weather is fine to return 

Aurora does not provide guided camping, campsite setup, campsite management or emergency response.
