Twin Lakes is a complex of two large lakes in Lake Clark National Park in the U.S. state of Alaska near the town of Port Alsworth. It contains a 9.7-km-long (6 mi) upper lake and a smaller 6.5-km-long (4 mi) lower lake, joined by a short connecting stream. It is quite remote and unpopulated, except in the late summer as it is a popular hunting spot.

The lake complex was the retirement home of Richard Proenneke, who spent most of the last 30 years of his life living there in a log cabin he built by hand.
