This is basically a big gravel pit with a limited number of back-in and pull-through electric-only sites. Water and dump are available for a steep fee . Don't be fooled by the 2-for-1 coupon in the TourSaver, as that's only available for 20 amp electric sites. 30 amp electric is available for a larger fee. Office staff is friendly and helpful; we needed a tow bar pin and they dug one up for us gratis. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park only has 15 amp electric and shuts it down by 9 p.m. and restarts at 7 a.m. but charges you $18 anyway. Will not honor Passport for the site. Sites are narrow and need trees pruned back. We scratched our paint on both the coach and the toad getting out. Clerk who checked us in was rude when we complained and wanted to dry camp. I would not recommend this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The pull-through sites did not have electricity so had to unhook to use a back-in electric site. The water and dump were extra charges (more than the camping). The campground was rough gravel and trashy. There is WiFi, but only on the porch of the office. Didn't find any gold, but that was free so can't complain. Intended to stay 2 nights, but left after one. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Free dry camping with fill up. Fuel is $2 cheaper than Dawson, so we saved $$$ on fuel and had a free site with free WiFi. Free gold panning and great people, too. If you don't dry camp, a fill up will save you $5 off the hookup sites. This is the campground at the bottom of the hill just before the one-lane bridge. Very good food at the Chicken Cafe just up the hill. This is a no brainer. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Associated with the Gold Panner Gift Shop and Fuel Station, they offer free dry camping with an RV fuel fill up. Wifi is free. There is an old gold dredge within walking distance and free gold panning in Chicken Creek which runs alongside the campground. Lot is gravel with plenty of room for big rigs to maneuver. A very friendly group of people running the business. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We really liked this campground. The few spots with electricity were taken so we dry camped. The area where we stayed were all back-ins. Basically the campground is a large gravel area with level back-in sites around the edges so there was plenty of room to maneuver our big rig. There is adequate space between campsites with picnic tables between. The office area also contains a very nice gift shop with a lot of very nice local and Alaskan made things. They also sell coffee and ice cream and there are many containers of flowers outside-looks really nice. The campground is very clean and well maintained. It's a short walk to Chicken. They also have a large dredge on the premises and offer an interesting tour for a nominal fee. The bathrooms are pit toilets but very clean. There is a charge for the showers but we didn't use them. They also offer gold panning for a nominal fee-either at the campground or will take you out to a creek. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Even though they only have 5 sites with electric hookups, there are plenty of room to dry camp, which we did. Chicken is an experience worth doing... We camped here in a Motorhome.
Some power sites but we dry camped. Did not use but the showers looked clean. You can dump grey for free and pay to dump black water. You are in the middle of nowhere so look at it as a wide open national park and you will enjoy your stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very clean and well groomed campground. Nice gift shop, restaurant and espresso bar. Gold panning is available on site. You can walk to "Beautiful Downtown Chicken". Note: Power is only on from 7:30 AM to 8:30 PM. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The park is very clean, and neat with very friendly hosts. The park offers gold panning
(the owners operate a gold mine adjoining the park) which was great fun and productive! Nice setting and very relaxing. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
