Campground Description
Spring Lake Campground provides an excellent nature camping experience with 66 back-in camping stalls. The forest setting provides good privacy within the sites. Located in a approximately 30 minutes Northwest of Hythe, Alberta. The park contains hiking trails of various lengths and is a short walk to Spring Lake. The lake is stocked with Rainbow and Brook Trout and the deep pools and clean clear water result in some large fish being caught. The day use area has an older semi-enclosed Gazebo with a wood cookstove that is suitable for family gatherings and events. Saddle Hills County was assigned the Crown Lease for Spring Lake Park in 2019, and have resumed the operation of the campground in September of that year. We have invested in the replacement of most of the old outhouses with mens/womens vault toilets, new picnic tables and some new firepits. We've added a new wood storage shed, a new playground structure in the A-loop, concrete pads in the boat launch, and a well water retention tank. Saddle Hills County remains committed to make improvements to the campground. For 2023, we are excited to announce that we've begun the process of electrification of the campground. Other improvements for this year are additional vault toilets in B-loop, and further development of the walking paths.
