About
Twinwood Lake Campground is a small, primitive campground in the Huron-Manistee National Forests in Newaygo County, Michigan. Bigelow Creek flows into Twinwood Lake adjacent to the campground, creating a steady current that makes the lake appealing for fishing. The surrounding white pine forest provides excellent wildlife viewing opportunities. Swans frequent the lake, and eagles have historically nested in the area. Waterfowl are plentiful, making this a popular destination for hunting and fishing during season. Ice fishing is especially popular on Twinwood Lake during winter months. The campground offers basic facilities including vault toilets, but no potable water is available. Campers should bring their own drinking water or be prepared to filter water from nearby sources. The site accommodates trailers with parking for up to 8 vehicles.
