This was a great park. Right in Anchorage so a great place for collecting or dropping off your RV. Good clean facilities with loads of washers and dryers.

We stopped here with 24 Newmar coaches and it was perfect. Our side had 30 amp power, plus s/w hookups. Good price, a bit tight on spacing, but all the big rigs fit. We will be back with another caravan.

We ended up staying for 3 weeks instead of 3 days, waiting on our truck repairs. The staff were great, and we felt very safe. The sites are big enough for our 27’ travel trailer and a truck next to it. The laundry was the cheapest I have seen for months. Yes, the campground could use some TLC, but I have no complaints. I would definitely stay again. Plus it’s in town and everything is close by.

Very tight spots as others have noted. Barely any room after slide outs. My water was being used by someone behind the fence for lawn, had to disconnect it before use. Tree lines not properly trimmed or maintained, expect foliage to touch roof. Bathroom and showers were clean. Location is convenient.

It is a TIGHT RV park with improperly measured sites. Several of us were hanging out into the road. They tried to put a 46' Luxe into a 30' travel trailer site. Admittedly, many RVers up here have rentals and don't know their size or how to back-in. The park is clean and the back part is isolated from road noise. There is a security company that cruises through very regularly. Power is strong at 124vac and it is pretty level.
