For Lake Louise Trailer - Banff National Park: Open all year. Checked in at 10:30 am ($33 CAD which is ~$26 USD for 120/30/50 electric) today and stayed in spot 97 (end of open area back by the river). There was no host/employee at booth so as instructed self registered. Hoped to pay on-line but unable to reserve these spots as that ended in October. Many spots available and it was an easy process (actually paid in USD unsure if that was an issue, but didn’t hear anything to the contrary). This is Lake Louise Campground 2 (hard sided they call it) as not tents are allowed. It is central to many things/activities and for some peace and beauty on the back side of the property is a stream which is accessible. Yes there are train tracks and trains do roll through - I don’t make an issue of it. Sites are interesting in that there are two per “pull in†(side by side) so if the campground was full each person would have a neighbor. Fire pits (you can purchase wood $8 CAD), picnic tables, lots of beautiful trees and level spots with brand new electric boxes that contain household plug, 30 and 50 amp. No water hookups. Dump station is large/numerous lanes (although just one open this time of year) and grouped near the front of the campground. Potable water is available and there was sign saying to fill up at the bathroom building (there is a room with sinks for washing dishes - this is where I figure one would fill their water jugs). Bathroom were very clean and the shower was hot - very nice actually. I would definitely stay here again for the price, but for those who want everything (total peace, total privacy, all hookups) this might not be the place for you. This is my first Canadian Park campground and if all are similar, I would say they are doing things right. Forgot to add: LTE Verizon Service, no issues.

For Lake Louise Trailer - Banff National Park: Nice campground with lots of wildlife and close to lake Louise. However, the campsites are in 2’s so you are sharing a site with strangers (so weird) and there’s a train track right beside you that is extremely active. About every 1-2 hours a train goes by blasting their horn. We didn’t get much sleep.

For Lake Louise Trailer - Banff National Park: This is a beautiful campground for winter camping and skiing at Lake Louise ski resort and the Chateau- only a 10 min drive to both. Excellent heated shower/toilet facility. Power at site, we used 30 amp. Recycling just outside shower facility. We stayed 3 nights in late February with temps -5F in the AM. Only 4 stars because the dump site was frozen (understandable with those cold temps).

For Lake Louise Trailer - Banff National Park: Trains, trains & autos, less than a base hit away. Not at all quiet. Level gravel site, but utilities are on the wrong side of trailer, so you need long cord & hose. Good one night stop to see the lake. This is not camping, your inside of a town. I will not go back. They also have bears inside the camp area, so make sure you put food stuff away.
