Moose Jaw KOA Journey on Thatcher Drive in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan does not allow EV charging at campsites. Same story as every other KOA: pedestals designed for intermittent RV loads, not the constant draw of an EV. Moose Jaw also has public DC fast charging from FLO, ChargePoint, and Tesla Supercharger. Regina is also nearby, about 40 miles away, with ChargePoint, Shell Recharge, Tesla Supercharger, and others. Moose Jaw is famous for its underground tunnels, the murals downtown, and the giant moose statue on the Trans-Canada. The DC fast chargers in town make this KOA's policy a minor footnote.
Our current electrical pedestals were originally designed for non-continuous loads typical of today's RV usage and therefore simply cannot support EV charging. Plugging your EV into a traditional 50-30 amp campground pedestal could permanently damage your vehicle as well as the campground's electrical system.
