Camperville is an unincorporated community in the Canadian province of Manitoba. Many Métis people live in this community. It is situated on Lake Winnipegosis.
The community was named for the Reverend Jones, a missionary. Local economy includes salt mining, tourism, hunting, fishing and trapping. Provincial Trunk Highway 20 passes through Camperville. The community had a church built 1906-1910, which was subsequently destroyed in 1930 but was rebuilt, the walls of the old church were reusable. However one can easily distinguish between the two because the first church had a two storey steeple while the steeple on the second was only one storey.
