I loved staying here. Kevin and Jamie the owners are great people, very friendly, and beyond helpful. I would absolutely stay there again. They got Internet there too, you don't really see that at a campground.

Very convenient campground along the way to the Arctic Circle, with excellent hot showers and restrooms. Mosquitoes were abundant and the only reason not to rate as 5 star.
