Good: Big, private campgrounds with lots of shades. Trails to walk around. Very quiet. Bad: There were no water tabs around. However, the map indicated there were? If we didn't pack enough water, we would've been in trouble. Bring enough drinkable water for yourself!! Lake: The lake was beautiful. However, I think it's more for fishing and quiet boating not for swimming or hanging around the lake for sure. Day areas were far from the lake and surrounded by plants bushes foxtails. We went to go paddleboarding but decided not to because of lack of area hanging around the lake, and the sun was sooo hot(just our own pref :))

Was a great place to camp. Lots of hiking trails and very cool scenery On the lake we saw many different varieties of birds. Lucky no wind at all Not a challenging paddle but lots to see Went to Waterton which is aprox 30km away for 1 day amazing Only negative was the toilets which were all disgusting Be aware there is no cell signal from Canada there! The US comes in but could be $$$ Reservations are a must but I belive same day reservation doesn't get charged any extra fees. Overall excellent 3 days!

Loved this little gem! The camping spots are fairly private, with lots of trees and berry bushes too. They're clean and well maintained and I though pretty spacious too. The park manager is a sweetheart, when she came around, she had firewood bundles for $12, and they're nice pieces. A short walk will bring you to the lake, and a little further of a walk is the boardwalk. Lots of people fishing, there's a little beach on the island. At night we heard loons and coyotes, it was pretty cool! Lots of different birds and the sunset was amazing. The bathrooms were clean too and all the garbage bins were empty with fresh bags - you could just tell the place is well cared for. I would highly recommend this place if you need time away to be with nature and find some quiet. It was beautiful and I'll be going back.

Really enjoyed our time at Police Outpost, had the campground almost exclusively to ourselves. Lots of hiking and wildlife during our visit. The lake is excellent for bird watching and the kids got a kick out of crossing the US/CAN border.

Day trip to Kayak😎we drove south from Lethbridge for about 90 minutes to reach this park. It is a very picturesque area with prairie, rolling hills, Police Lake and the iconic Chief mountain all providing picture after picture opportunities. It is a very quiet, anti out of the way place. There are pit toilets which were tidy, a substantial boat launch and dock and lots of individuals enjoying the fishing. We paddled around the lake which has trails that lead to the water but a very reedy shore line, paddles under the foot bridge and around the central island where we pulled up and explored some of the hiking trails then paddled back to enjoy a picnic at a table near the boat launch. It’s a very serene setting.

We were disappointed with this park. It is well off the main roads, ending with 12 km of gravel road with no services nearby, no pay phone, no cell coverage and no park hosts. There is also nothing remaining of the original outpost expect the name of the lake and park – Police Outpost. There was a map of the interpretive trails, but no distances were provided. The woods were dense and there was a lot of undergrowth with the bear warnings and the isolation of this park we did not feel safe walking the trails here. The playground is modern with a gravel base, but it was in the group camping area not the main campground. There is a good boat launch with docks and fish cleaning station. There is no beach available. Park website says the tap water is for putting out fires only, but the tabs have signs that the water is treated. It was odd that the park operator had their own signage about senior discounts and seasonal discounts that are not consistent with the park website. This might be a good fishing lake but we did not feel safe at this park.

Very pretty. Nice trails for kids. Most campers seem to be over 50 and ready for fishing. Bathrooms ok. No firewood and no one selling it, luckily someone had left our site 3 logs. No cell or wifi. Better set up for the trailer crowd, as the sites had coarse rock you can't step on and I had to put the tent on it. The walk to the border is quick and easy. There was always a few spots open if you're worried about that part, and someone was on the overflow lot with their super gigantic camper, so you will probably find a spot too.
