Loved our site (10) as it had a well-screened picnic table area with outstanding views. Sites 12 and 13 also looked great. Mostly level "pull off" area worked well for camper van.

No Verizon or T-Mobile service-- not even a nibble.

Showers literally the best we've seen at any campground! Unbelievable for camping!

Dishwashing sink not clean.

Plenty of water spigots.

Dump station at entrance.

Walkable to several trails.

So much good to say about this campground. There aren't many sites and most in loop B only have one visible neighbor. Ours was well protected from the wind (site 26 loop B), close though not next to bathroom.

Outdoor dishwashing station. No showers. Clean bathroom.

Trail connects loops A and B over the top of a short ridge where you get amazing views of sunrise AND sunset AND the night sky.

Plenty of hiking options-- can't wait to return and try more trails.

Common question we heard folks asking rangers-- how do I get to others Canyonlands districts? Answer you drive out and around-- the Colorado and Green Rivers divide Canyonlands into three districts and there are no bridges in the park over the river. Plan ahead :)

Easy to find. Campsites in middle have no screening, though nicely separated. Campsites on edges have some nice screening. Very quiet night. Bathrooms are
fine and showers are adequate (free).

We camped here in April 2021 and again in April 2022. You can't beat location-- short walk to the rim combined with cell service sufficient for video conference (with an external antenna) both with T-Mobile and Verizon.

In 2021 loop B (our preferred loop for a 20' camper) was open April 5. In 2022 loop was supposedly "opening soon" and not open yet on April 8. FCFS both times. We arrived around 10:30am on a Sunday in early April and there were 10 sites or so to chose from. A loop sites aren't private yet there is certainly sufficient space between sites.

Bathrooms are fine. Dishwashing sink is fine. No showers. Dump station not open in early April 2022. Walk to rim and fairyland loop. Walk to visitor center.

Site 123 has nice screening even from the bathroom that it's across from. Also had excellent Wifi service being close to the bathroom. Good for Zoom meetings. We used the WiFi as it was much better than Verizon.

Site 76 has no screening, a tiny bit of shade, though not over the pad nor over the picnic table. Most sites in this area had little shade.

At the end of April campground was full and quiet. Bathrooms and showers clean and functional. Outstanding access to beach from both North and South campgrounds.

WiFi also available at tables with power outlets near visitor center. Very nice playground. A few short trails in the woods. Great wildlife viewing for alligators and water birds along causeway in and out of park.

Note: no sites have beach view, there is screening all the way along.

After reading reviews we selected site 25 in the north end of the campground. If you don't need power these northern sites are fabulous. If we needed power I would have camped elsewhere. Site 25 had both views of the park and backs up to a beautiful red sandstone backdrop.

The bathrooms are clean and the showers are excellent. The dishwashing sink was kept super clean (yay fellow campers!). Lots of kiddos biking the campground loop and drivers kept speed low.

We were working on the road and found both Verizon and T-Mobil cell service even with an excellent external antenna insufficient at the campground-- really only useable for texting and occasional email. However parking lots at both top and bottom of park (right outside park) have excellent service.

We arrived after dark and found helpful info pinned up on a bulletin board for us. Glad we had a campground map downloaded as the signage wasn't particularly reflective in the dark.

If you're a hiker you can hike multiple short and medium-length trails right from the campground. If you're a biker there's a paved bike path and lots of additional biking in the area. If you like long views down the canyon our site neighbor swore by sites 23 and 24 (which also are less private, hence the views :)

We would definitely return-- one of our favorite park/campground combos in a 6-week Utah trip.

Level cement pad. SO windy and no wind protection. Made it hard on some of the tents-- one night every tenter retreated to their car even the family with 3 kiddos and 2 adults-- 60mph gusts. Regardless awesome campground.

One long trail (devil's campground) easily accessed walking from campground and one short trail easily accessed at other end.

Camp hosts absolutely superb in April.

Campground is at the absolute end of the park. If you're thinking of driving out and back take that into account-- a good 30 minutes each way. No issues arriving after dark.

No T-Mobile service. Verizon service okay with external antenna. Not good enough for video.

Twin Peaks campground is a well planned and well executed campground. Sites are very level cement with extra space between the parking pad and the picnics table for a yoga mat or chairs or whatever. Every site is pull through.

Our site had a gorgeous organ pipe right at the site. The sites are all next to one another with only cacti for screening however we felt like there was plenty of space. If you have solar on your vehicle these sites are particularly excellent! Of note not every site has an organ pipe cactus 😂 we met a couple looking to change spaces because their site didn't have one.

The solar showers are very good. Just need to time your shower for mid-day-- morning they are cold and by evening scalding :)

There was no T-Mobile service. There was good Verizon service at our site-- 2 bars and sufficient for video conference.

There are several short hiking trails that start right at the campground. Great hike up the ridge for sunset and/or sunrise. Ranger programs right at the campground in season.

The dirt roads we found more washboardy than we like for our camper. Seemed fine for a vehicle that can take shaking or for mountain biking.

We felt very safe here and had no issues whatsoever with folks crossing the border.

The lakeside sites have nice views and are partially shaded in Loop M. The others seemed very confined and shaded.

Some bathrooms didn't have soap. Some sinks didn't work. Definitely need some TLC.

I was surprised to see about 6 campfires in my loop despite numerous signs saying no campfires due to high fire danger including a sign in our fire pit.

T-Mobile coverage came and went. When it was available there was enough service to text.
