About
Close to Rocky Mountain House, Twin Lakes Campground is a popular campground for fishing enthusiasts. The boat launch provides easy access to the lake for trout and perch fishing, and the wheelchair-accessible pier is great for those looking to cast from shore.
The campground hosts 39 unserviced, reservable campsites in two different styled loops. Loop A is well treed, and sites are more private, while Loop B is suited to those who enjoy more open sites. Both loops have access to vault toilets, a non-potable water pump, and a playground for the kids.
For those looking for additional amenities, the main Crimson Lake Campground is only a short drive away. There are showers, coin laundry, and a sani-dump station where you can fill with water or dispose of waste. Crimson Lake Store offers firewood sales, snacks and stocks basic camping supplies.
Reservations can be made 90 days in advance of arrival date.
Firewood: Firewood is available for purchase nearby at the Crimson Lake Campground store.
Water: Please bring your own water. Water from the hand pump is not safe for consumption or use and should only be used to put out fires.
