Cramped and noisy. We paid for two nights, but left after the first, sleepless one. Located conveniently to Bishop Beach, but that's not much consolation after a bad night. Permanent residents are messy and one was banging on the tailgate of his pickup at 6:30 AM. The pub across the street is a real negative if you want to sleep. This was our ONLY bad experience in Alaska. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Campground is tight for maneuvering but sites are not bad. Easy walk to the beach and the visitor's center. Great views. Staff were friendly and helpful. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Small park in Homer with pull-in sites for nice views of the bay. Not spacious and not easy for larger rigs to maneuver with several rather derelict units but fairly level with good cable and wi-fi. Within walking distance to the Alaska Maritime NWF and visitor center. We picked this park to avoid the crush and noise of the spit but the spit didn't seem as bad as we thought it would be whereas this park got quite a bit of noise from the pub across the street on Friday night. We wouldn't stay here again, far too expensive when all it really offers is cable and free wi-fi (free if you sign in every hour), we can get a small, cramped site anywhere. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We had booked the last three days of the season and they called us to tell us the were going to close two days early. We had plenty of time to book the other nights elsewhere, so we appreciated the advance notice. The park was spacious, and we had a beautiful beach front site. Weather was really bad the night we were there, so we paid the price of being out on the spit by being buffeted around by high winds. Probably would have been less of a problem if there were more motorhomes around us. Location is everything, but the price is pretty high for what you actually get. WiFi was marginal...they say it only works in the office and certain sites. We had it, but it was pretty weak. Sites are level, hookups are top notch. If you can walk a mile each way, shopping and dining are within walking distance. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Except for the cost per night, this place was great! Especially for the kids. We were parked right next to the beach and the kids had a ball. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The park has many great waterfront sites with spectacular views of Kachemak Bay and glaciers along the far shoreline. The sites have plenty of space and we were able to stretch out and enjoy our stay with our grandchildren. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Beautiful location, but not choice sites. A bit cramped and although clean, the grounds were pretty rough. Loved the access to all on the Spit. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a busy and often noisy place, reservations are a good idea. Campsites are small, picnic tables and some fire rings provided. Front row on the beach have no hookups. We had a site in the next row, slightly elevated, spectacular view over the tenters. Bathrooms were clean and kept filled with supplies including hand soap. Showers, $1, were excellent. This is an old campground and not spiffy, but the people are great and if you want electricity on the Spit, this is the place to go. We stayed here 2 weeks and were very happy. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great spot, cheap, view to die for, one the beach, walk every morning, sit in front seats of coach and watch eagles, shore birds, and otters play and feed. Two water and dump station in Homer. This is a city camp ground, there are 3 on the spit, there are other campgrounds but cost so much, and for what? A must stay if you are in Homer! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a big gravel/dirt parking lot that the city allows for camping. You can camp on the beach in a tent or you can park your RV so you can face the ocean. Not a lot of space between RV's but everyone respects each others space. There are no real assigned spaces. There is a ranger that comes around to check to make sure everyone is ok and doing whats supposed to be done. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Prior to taking our trip to Alaska to celebrate my son's 10th wedding anniversary with his family I did my due diligence on-line to secure the best sites for our trip. I made my reservation and confirmed a beach view site on March 9th, 2007. I called several times prior to our arrival to make sure that the reservation was set and we would have the site we wanted. When we arrived on July 17th, 2007 after travelling 4,500 miles from Michigan we were informed that the site we reserved in March, 2007 had been double booked. The young girl behind the counter was very apologetic, but that did not make up for the fact that we were given a take it or leave it offer to move to another site after multiple calls to confirm the reservation. The owner showed up later and when confronted with our disappointment, she did nothing to make things right. In fact, she accused me of being a liar and said that we had reserved the site after the current occupants. Too bad she had not been there earlier when the young woman behind the counter told us that we had just recently been bumped for the current occupants. The owner did not offer any discount for her mistake and we were extremely disappointed. The sites are very narrow and we did not have much room to use in the site we were given. We only stayed one night and moved to Heritage RV park on the spit the next day. Heritage is more expensive, but at least the folks that work there are honest. If you don't mind being bumped or fighting for a site that has been double booked then this is the place to go. Otherwise, there are many other options in Homer. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Probably the nicest campground in Homer. Sites are level, terraced into a hill leading down toward the bay with excellent views of the bay and “the Spit” and a trail down to the beach. Free Wi-Fi on their patio. Some folks might prefer camping on “the Spit”, but it was too crowded, too windy and too dusty for our liking. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Great views from some sites. The free WiFi didn't reach most of the park. Excellent cable TV. We looked at all the other parks in town, and this was the best. Walk to the beach (though not on the Spit). We camped here in a Motorhome.
