Perfect little camp spot. Was nice to see a active host cleaning up after people left and helped us by bringing our ice from store across the way to our site. No shower but you're camping so can't expect one lol

Been camping here for years. It is one of our favorite places to go. Water is cool and clean

NO LAKE AT THIS LOCATION! Apparently at West South Twin Campground the lake is only there in March and because it is a Reservoir it empties fast and is just a river during the summer months. Right across the street (2min walk) is Twin Lake Resort and that is where the Lake is and all the fun activies and boat rentals. It was a great place to camp, no cell service, relaxing but also no lake front spots (which is what I thought I booked) it didn't ruin the trip but I don't want anyone else to get bamboozled. Again, there is no lake at this campground! No matter what maps shows, there is NO lake. Only a river that has no real good swimming spots.

We love the area. If you drive past the campground on to the lake bed you can camp on the water

We didn't camp here, just stopped by after going to Twin Lake for the day, so can't attest to how good or bad the camping is. I will say that it's quite beautiful, at least when the reservoir is low which it was when we were there (September 5th). Since the reservoir was low there were all sorts of gravel roads exposed around the perimeter and some that went down to the river. I saw some folks camped pretty close to the river on a nice meander so they had water on 3 sides. Can't say I'd want to camp there with the abundance of other great places nearby but there must be some reason because there was a ton of people there. I definitely recommend popping over there if you visit Twin Lakes for the day.

Sites are deap for long trailers. Some a little difficult to back into. Restrooms are clean but could use a good scrubbing on the porcelain. Two lakes and a reservoir to fish in. Small market with a nice little restaurant with inside or outside dining. Have stayed there twice in the last two months. Already reserved a couple of spots for next year.

You get beautiful views of the mountains beautiful scenery of the trees and Lake very quiet campsites are pretty far apart plenty of access to the lake campfires are allowed fishing lots of good fish there is a large close by for food water drinks there's rentals for Kayaks at a boats and rafts there's sandy beaches in some areas and all the people are very friendly there. Plus there's wildlife lots of birds quite a few deer bombs squirrels that's why I give South Twin Lake a five-star thank you
