There are 2 parts to this campground, one for RV's and a separate one for tents and soft sided campers. The tenting campground has an electric fence surrounding it to keep out the bear. The sites are well spaced, treed and pleasant. We travelled with an RV so were kept outside the fence! We were assigned our site and as... More

Stayed here for one night on my 7 week road trip across Canada & the U.S. It was such a beautiful warm day when I first entered the park and drove across the electrified rollers into the campgrounds. Pitched my tent and drove into Lake Louise for some sight seeing. Upon returning later that evening couldn't believe how fast the... More

We stayed one night at Lake Louise campground after spending the previous night at Tunnel Mountain Campground closer to Banff, we wished we had stayed another night at Tunnel Mountain and just packed up early for a day of activity at Lake Morraine and Lake Louise. The campground was decent and the bathrooms were cleaned, however, the electric fence surrounding... More

We stayed here for two nights in August 2011 (overlooked this review as we have been travelling ever since) and really liked it. The pitches are spacious and well-spaced. It was good to have our own picnic table. We were a bit of a walk from the showers, but that was not really a problem (a smaller block of loos... More

We stayed in the RV section of the campground. The sites are shared, meaning there are two rvs on each site. There was about one metre between our unit and our neighbor's unit. We were so close we could hear the neighbor's tv and water pump etc. The picnic table was old and covered with cooking grease. There is one... More

Very clean well laid out park. Nice roomy sites although ours was on a bit of an angle. Like many campgrounds in the Rockies it is near the trainline so be prepared for some noise (by the end of the trip we found the trains soothing!). Nothing special but fine for somewhere to stay on the way through.

I had very low expectations heading out to the Lake Louise Campground for the weekend, but it is certainly nothing near as bad as what others have said. -- This campground is NOT 15 minutes to Lake Lousie - we biked from our site to the town in 10 minutes, with an 8 and 10 year old. -- It is...

First - should be renamed Bow River campground as that is where it is located. It's a 15 minute drive to Lake Louise. The train noise is RIDICULOUS. Trains come through the campground all night long with horns blasting hourly. I am not exaggerating. It got so bad - and I was so tired that I could do nothing but... More

Let me start by saying that my review will focus on the RV portion of the campground only. The campground itself is well maintained, almost a little sterile, and will seem very familiar to you if you've stayed in other Parks Canada campgrounds. The sites consist of large easy-to-access gravel pull-thru pads that can accomodate two big rigs facing opposite... More

An embarrassment to Canada that this is a Parks Canada campground. Where to begin? Our site was L3 and the tenting sites there are sparsely treed and are very close together which makes for little privacy. No charge for wood but you do need to buy a fire permit at $8.50/day. Would be nice if they put the wood stockpile... More
