Campground Overview

About Twin Lakes Campground

A visit to Twin Lakes Campground in Pennsylvania's Allegheny National Forest offers a serene retreat defined by its spring-fed trout-stocked lake, forested surrounds, and rich history. This campground stands out for its well-designed campsites, diverse recreational opportunities, and a tranquil lakeside atmosphere.

The campground features multiple camping options, including tent, RV, and group sites, some equipped with electric hookups. Each campsite includes a crushed stone pad, picnic table, and fire ring, catering to both comfort and functionality. While showers and potable water are currently unavailable, the area compensates with a functional RV dump station and bathhouses. The nearby scenic 10-acre impoundment facilitates swimming (with a sandy beach), fishing piers, and walking trails. Additionally, the Black Cherry National Recreation Trail and Twin Lakes Trail connect hikers to beautiful forest views and interpretive displays.

Situated eight miles south of Kane, PA, the campground benefits from its proximity to other Allegheny National Forest attractions, including Mill Creek for trout fishing and numerous wooded trails. Its natural charm and historical connection to the Civilian Conservation Corps enhance its allure, making it ideal for weekend getaways or extended family trips. Accessible facilities, picnic pavilions, and a peaceful ambiance underscore Twin Lakes as a noteworthy destination for outdoor enthusiasts.
