I would classify this campground as basic as basic can be but for that really nice. The staff I interacted with was very friendly and welcoming. The bathroom (women) were clean, usable but absolutely nothing pretty or outstanding. Unsure how they keep the showers clean for the next person during high season, mine barely drained the water and I turned the shower head on twice more in the hopes of cleaning up after myself. Laundry is 2$ so is the drier. It gives the illusion of being in nature, while being close to the road and giving you easy access to all of Fairbanks. Over all can recommend for September, stayed there for two nights, wouldn't want to stay there when its super busy.

When camping locations are limited this place was better than nothing indeed. There was a nice camp host a the recently remodeled bathrooms still need some work. The don’t look pretty but they are indeed functional. They have washers and dryers that function. They also have a change machine if you don’t have quarters. There were a few people who showed up and camped and did not have vehicles. This seemed strange but the camp host addressed it and gave us a different spot. Yes there are some long-term campers but they were no problem at all. If your tent camping and can stay away from the t40s it more quiet. Best to reserve online and if walking up try to be there by 5.

Rooms=RV site. Wide sites in the woods. Water inside the laundry room delicious. From the outside hose- chlorine!!!! Yuck. Perfect location even during the Tanana Fair- trees helped mute the sounds some. Gentleman at the front is helpful and nice. Internet slow

this is a nicely wooded and well laid out campground next to the fair. the host was friendly, helpful and hard working - keeping the facilities clean and the campground well organized and quiet. electric hookups in the camp sites and a free dump station and free drinking water. my wife and I really enjoyed our time here.

We stayed at Tanana Valley Campground for 2 nights in our rig. We were warmly welcomed upon arrival and guided to our spot. Matt and Laurie were helpful and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. They were available and diligently working to maintain the grounds and care for their guests. *we were told there would be updates to the laundry room which is much needed (dryer).

First impression were huge potholes that we bottomed out in.The sites were ok. It was quite a walk to the restroom, and unfortunately it appeared someone literally ripped a stall door off and people left the shower muddy. Staff was freindly.

Stay Away! That’s our experience, we’ve been full time RVing for five years. Transients using shower facilities and plugging phones into outlets. The road through looks like a bombing zone. Location to downtown Fairbanks was about the only good thing we have to say. The pictures speak for themselves. I hate to give bad reviews, but when I brought up the transient issue the lady staff members said they know and their location was hard to control the grounds.

We just stayed there for two nights and it was very positive experience. The only issue is that only one sink functioned in the ladies room, but the gents was fine. It’s a small wooded campground with level sites and electric. Also make use of the dump/fresh water station. Staff was very friendly. Not for larger rigs such as Class A or fifth-wheels but that’s really the only caveat.

Don't camp here. The staff were friendly but the bathrooms, didn't have operating sinks in the men's. The women only had one operating. The shower handle falls off one shower in the womens. The bathroom is always dirty. The road in and out of the campground is in bad shape. Not a great location.

Not well maintained. Campsite layout is disorganized and confusing. Camp host is unavailable for assistance due to smoking a bong in her trailer. Men's toilet has no plumbing. Other campers blocked us in with their car. Would rather have slept in a ditch.

Horrible! Staying here currently and no one answers the phone. We are unable to gain access to showers or laundry as none of that information was shared when we checked in. Looked insight the laundry room and machines look broken and old. After venturing to try and do laundry there was a guy lurking around a tent site that was not his and when confronted he said he was “looking for work” Does not feel safe!!!!!

I made reservations and was given site AA which is outside the entrance of the campground, at the edge of the entry road, and across a noisy fair. When I made the reservation I was not told any of this information. In addition our camp site did not have a table, which the brochure states all sites have tables & fire pits. When I called to see if we could get a table I was informed that nothing could be done and no table provided. I was not at all pleased with the service or camp site. I cancelled our 4-night reservation on the phone with Buddy and have yet to receive my promised refund for 3 nights of camping - Buddy explained that I would only be charged for 1 night and my cancellation accepted. I have written 3 messages to check on my reimbursement and have received no reply or reimbursement. This all happened 2 weeks ago and I am very dissatisfied with my whole experience with Tanana Valley Campground.

We had a really good time. Getting around in the lose gravel is tough with a wheelchair.

Amazing experience both times we have been here. Buddy and his staff go out of their way to help guests! We are truly impressed. Wooded campsites for privacy. Dog friendly on leashes. Overall quiet except for the fair noise. All guests have been very respectful. We love camping here! Thank you for a great experience!

A great place to camp for a long weekend or just for the night. A beautiful campground that has what a minimalist needs
