Have camped here over my 49 years many times, launched boats here since I was a kid. I was shocked this year, when we were not allowed to park in a site and register until we were grilled by the campground host as to the reason for our stay. Husband stated he was working on a road crew in the area and I was camping out with him. We were informed the BLM parks are for road travelers, not workers or local Alaskans, and directed us to a sub-standard swampy camp site, in a bog even though the campground was empty. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I have been very impressed with the abundance of state recreation areas along the Richardson Hwy as well as other highways. We found Sourdough Creek after a long day driving from Fairbanks. The campground was very deserted with only the camp host filling a site. We chose a pull through site that was private with a table and fire pit. There was a path to the river from our site and a lot of berry bushes. The campground had well maintained gravel roads and sites. Be sure to carry cash to put in the pay pole. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a nice, clean state campground. The only facilites are the restrooms and water pump. But it is well taken care of and there is a boat launch here. Only downside: lots of mosquitoes. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park is along the highway, so there's truck noise all night. Sites are in one long row, alternating direction, with very little room between slideouts. FHU; Wi-Fi only worked intermittently. Worked for a one-night stop, to dump and take on water. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

There were perhaps 10 LONG pull through sites and 20 Back in sites available. Looks like they have blocked off part to reduce upkeep as it does not fill up. Yes, the potholes are still there but it sure keeps the speeders down! Nice shade and tables and fire pits for all sites. BUT the skeeters kept us away from using them. Good Value for the areal We camped here in a Motorhome.

Although this has the potential to be an excellent site a lot of work needs putting in to maintain it to a good standard. The sites are adequately spaced and wooded between but the gravel pads need improvement as do the roads which are badly rutted. The trees and growth between sites need trimming. The dumpster was overfull with trash on the ground around it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a nice public campground but was deserted today, June 20. It is just 3 miles outside the tiny town of Glennallen at Mile 118 of the Richardson Highway. The sites are well-separated. There is a section toward the rear with 8 very wide and long pull-throughs which would be great for 40' rigs. The rest are back-ins and some are deep but most are for 30-32' rigs. There are also some walk-in tent sites. There are picnic tables, fire pits and vault toilets. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground has the potential to be fantastic. The sites are spaced and treed nicely. Even though we stayed in mid Sept and there were few people there, we still had to wait to shower ($3 each), since there were only 2 shower stalls. Also, the porta-potties were some of the fullest I've ever seen. Finally, the customer service was terrible. The owner (?) was talking to construction workers outside of the office when we showed up but wouldn't acknowledge us. After 15 minutes, we were ready to leave, but a worker finally showed up. Gave no info about the CG (maybe we're used to KOA's where you're inundated) and checked us in. We camped here in a Tent.

Owner/operator was rude, unwelcoming, and accusatory. Apparently she does not want Alaskans who live or work in the state to stay here. This she says AFTER taking our money. In 49 years of camping I have never been treated more poorly; she'd rather have empty RV sites than rent a site to Alaskans. She called us names, made threats, and in general was so disdainful that we will never stay here again, even if its the only RV park available. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground was nicer than we expected. Clean and level sites long enough for larger rigs. There were only two showers and toilets but that was adequate due to the small size of the campground and they were clean and worked well. Friday's are dessert night at the campground where the owners provide free home-made baked goods and everyone gathers around a campfire. Which felt good since even in August since this was Alaska! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Access to the campground from the Hwy is down a 1 mile dirt road. Don’t let that stop you from using this great campground during your travels in Alaska. Owner lives on site and keeps the place in great shape. Most sites are back-in with some pull-through sites located along the road into the main park. All sites are in the trees, many with views of Tolsona Creek. Elect/water at the sites with a dump station if needed. WiFi worked well at our site. Wish would could have stayed longer. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a great campground with large, treed sites all along Tolsona Creek. Electricity is good. We had good Wi-Fi at our site. We have a 36 foot long RV and there are several sites we would have fit in. The roads were fine for us. This is like a good state park with water and electric. Restrooms are old and basic but spotlessly clean. We will return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

If you like camping in the woods along a stream this park is for you. It reminds us of a BLM campground but with hookups. We even had 50 amp service at our site. You could fly fish in the stream which was so clear. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
