Sibbald Lake Campground

New Age Travel and Services

Sibbald Lake Campground is a great choice if you want an easy escape into nature without driving deep into the Rockies. The sites are tucked into the forest, offering plenty of shade and privacy, and the lake itself is just a short walk away—perfect for fishing, paddling, or a calm evening by the water. The campground has basic amenities like fire pits, picnic tables, and outhouses, making it simple but comfortable. The real highlight is the setting: peaceful, family-friendly, and surrounded by gentle trails where you can spot wildlife or enjoy a morning stroll. It’s also one of the first campgrounds you reach when heading west from Calgary, so it’s super convenient for a quick weekend trip. If you’re looking for a quiet, easy-to-reach spot with a true backcountry feel, Sibbald Lake is the way to go.

Wow! What an amazing campground just an hour’s drive from Calgary! No network, no screens just pure, vintage life. It felt so refreshing, especially for the kids to disconnect and truly enjoy nature. We absolutely loved every moment of it! 🌲🔥⛺️

If you don't want crowds, want to book last minute, don't want a long drive from Calgary and like a quiet camping experience, this is the campground for you! There is NO lake, NO potable water (there is water for washing dishes though), NO power, NO cell service (15m drive to cell service). All this tends to keep people away. But it's huge! The camp sites are very large and well treed. There are pull through camp sites. There used to be a lake but it's gone now. There was plans for an amphitheatre (see attached map) but that never happened. It's the campground time forgot... which can be a blessing. Kids had a great time just chilling in the camp site with a wood fire (a rare opportunity these days), playing in the playground or playing in the woods. Note: Many of the "interpretive exhibits" on the map no longer exist.

Nice campground with no cell service. We stayed at A50 and were able to fit a 9 person tent, 6 person tent and 2 vehicles, we had plenty of room. I’d definitely recommend this site if you like having lots of room. Close walk to the washrooms. Only downside is that the main office opens at 4pm to buy firewood.

We camped here a couple weeks ago for the first time. What an amazing little campground. All the same amenities as some of the larger camp grounds. But off the beaten trail somewhat and certainly off the grid! The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The campsites are all different sizes and shapes. Lots of tree cover for shade. We will definitely be back.
