The great thing about this park is its proximity to downtown Anchorage. We were able to walk into town for everything we wanted to do. Spaces were somewhat close, but who cared? Location, location, location. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We read this was the best campground in Anchorage--would hate to see the worst. This is a gravel lot with tiny spaces. Many campers could not use slideouts or awnings. The sewer did not have a threaded connector. You just drop your hose into the hole and put a rock on your hose to keep it in place. Train tracks are right outside the wooden fence separating them from the campground and trains did run at night. Did I mention being under the Anchorage airport flight path? On a positive note, the Wi-Fi worked well and the office staff were friendly and helpful. Palmer is only 35 miles away--next time we will stay there and come to Anchorage for the day. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I gave this park rating of 8 only because the sites are very tight. We could not put out an awning and basically stepped out our door into the next sites vehicle. The park overall is very clean and has a nice staff. All the sites are flat with a gravel base. There is some train noise because the track are next to the park, but its daytime for the most part. Would stay here again because its the best in Anchorage. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here because the park has hot showers. However, from the beginning, this park scared us. Many of the people camping here appeared to be homeless and our site was filled with broken auto glass. We were afraid to leave the trailer here for fear it would be broken into. Staff was friendly. We left after one night to find a safer place. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nothing special. Only 2-3 pull through sites. Not level. Old city park, that is basically run-down and in an old part of town. OK for a night or so. Not worth the price, but not much else worthwhile in Anchorage. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Lovely location, but not maintained. Massive and deep potholes in the road through the park. I don't know if a big rig could make it. There were stumps in the middle of sites so it was very difficult to park, and they were very uneven. It could be a great place; it's close to the water, in a forest with large private sites. But it needs a lot of work. We stayed there because it was close to Anchorage for returning our RV in the morning. That would be the only reason to stay. I wouldn't stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is located about 16 miles south of Anchorage at mile marker 101 on the Seward highway. It is a good location but in need of a lot of work. The gravel road into and through the campground had potholes 8 and 9 inches deep and 2 to 4 feet round. It is a narrow winding one way road. Big rigs can get in if very careful. There where a lot of trees down laying all around. It look like they may have been cut and just left to rot. I did talk to a state park worker and he said the campground is going to get a complete makeover. I would not stay here without checking it out to see if it had a makeover. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We chose this park because it was advertised as being close to major attractions. It was not close to anything we wanted to see. We had to take a cab to the downtown area. On initial impact, the park is very old and run down. Many of the park users are permanent residents, living in old beat up rusty RVs, cluttered with junk and debris. The sites are small, with no eye appeal, basically a gravel parking lot. No picnic table. The hookups work, but the water hookup is hot, apparently heated for winter but heater left on. The washrooms need a lot of TLC, but at least appeared clean. The smell, on the other hand, was awful, like a sewer backup. The office staff were polite and helpful. The office was neat and clean. It's way overpriced. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

The only good thing I can say about this park is it's in a convenient location. The spaces are tight, it's basically a big parking lot, and the restroom/shower facilities are abysmal. The first night one toilet was clogged, and when this fact and the general dirty condition of the restrooms were reported to the front desk, the person's response was that it was the maid's day off and she'd be in the next day. Well, the next morning another toilet was clogged and the place was still in sad shape, so we asked for a refund for that night and promptly received it. We then moved to the Golden Nugget, which was very nice with very clean restrooms. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Spaces were too small for the rigs. No place to park tow or towed vehicles. Tight, difficult to maneuver. Many permanents. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed here with a caravan, so I am not sure about the non-caravan price per night. The park managers were super friendly and helpful. It backs up to an older mobile home park and for that reason, it looks a little sketchy, but we left our rig and car for 3 days while we were away from Anchorage and nothing was bothered. It is not pretty, and sites are a bit tight for big rigs, but it is convenient to Costco and easy to locate and pretty typical for Alaska campgrounds. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here because we needed to restock supplies before heading to Homer. And this was one of the best rated parks in the area, although I'm not sure why. The sites are extremely tight, and short. Our 35' coach barely fit into the spot we had up against the fence. The spot next to us was given to a 45' rig that had to park diagonally and stuck out in the street 5'. The neighborhood is a bit run down, and our site looked out on a old mobile home park that had activity going all night long. Not a lot of places to walk pets. Sadly, the other parks in the area are not rated as well as this one. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Site are narrow but hookups are good. WiFi was ok. Restrooms were clean. A very busy place, lots of caravan traffic. They offer entertainment some nights, though not when we were here. Staff was very helpful. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The park is in a beautiful setting with easy access to the Trail of Blue Ice for bicycling and hiking. A large pavilion with gas grills and nightly bonfire are a nice touch. The park itself is a large gravel area with generously spaced sites; both pull-through and back-in. Only electric is available to the sites but potable water is available next to the office and there is a sewage pump-out station. Port-a-potties provide restroom facilities. The two, clean, free showers are in a building and have space heaters for added comfort. There is no Wi-Fi or television. AT&T phone and data service were weak but functional. No discounts are available. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This park is really at the turn off for Seward and is perfect for your first day run out of Anchorage. It gives you a chance to remember how to dive a 25 ft or larger RV if you haven't in a while. We were here May 13th: turns out it was a early spring and wonderful. We did not use the showers or port-a-cans, so I cannot commit on those. It is a great setting with mountains all around, small creek and a really great, covered fire pit pavilion. They also have gas grills in the pavilion for your use. Just across the road is a nice walking path and wet lands. Down the road is Portage Glacier Lake and exhibit center. It is also close to Aleyska Ski Resort which is way cool. Don't miss this RV camp! We camped here in a Motorhome.

What a hidden gem! Beautiful place with nice, clean, hot, showers! I was pleasantly surprised that it had electric! NO WHERE ELSE IN THE AREA DOES!!! It has a great community cook house with a nightly campfire and gas grills for all to use. It is family owned and they stay right on the property. The owner is very helpful and seems to run much of the park. The kids have an adorable baby that helps with check in. They all were so nice, and the facilities were so clean, we decided to stay again on our return from Kenai to Anchorage. It is only one hour from Anchorage, so it was a perfect stop on our way to and from the airport. We camped here in a Motorhome.
