Valdez KOA Journey
Overview
Alaska is truly the land that calls you. Once you visit, the spell it casts will call you again and again. The vastness, the majestic beauty, the lure of land not yet traveled.
The wild beauty of America's Last Frontier awaits at the Valdez KOA. Eighteen acres of wilderness surround the campground, where you can easily access hiking and ATV trails. Beyond, glacier-caked peaks dominate the view in all directions. A pristine stream flows right through the campground, Bald eagles soar by, and the occasional bear wanders through. Come camp from your RV, Tent or one of our Lodging options. With a camp store, Wi-Fi, and other on-site services, you can settle right in and get ready to explore this magnificent region. Charter a local guide to fish world-class waters for salmon and halibut. Board a wildlife excursion boat to scan the Sound for humpback whales, fuzzy sea otters, comical-looking puffins, and other birds not often seen in the Lower 48. Come face-to-face with one of the largest tidewater glaciers in North America, an ice sheet as high as a football field, and another big Alaska memory. Open Memorial Day (weather permitting). ALL MILITARY ARE WELCOME! WE ARE A VETERAN-OWNED CAMPGROUND. Max pull thru: 100 feet. Your hosts: Jason & Kristin Britt.

My friend and I stayed at the KOA just outside of Valdez for a few days, and we had a wonderful experience. The campground was easy to find, very clean, and well maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The showers were probably the best I’ve ever used at a KOA. Each shower was in its own private room rather than an open shower area, and one of the thoughtful finishing touches was that they provided clean bath mats for every guest. It really made the experience feel comfortable and well cared for. The campground itself was spotless, and I especially liked that some campsites even had their own fenced areas for people traveling with dogs. I would absolutely recommend this KOA to anyone visiting the Valdez area. It was, in my opinion, the best campground we saw while we were there. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip to Valdez.

Right off the highway. The sites are really close together. Close enough if there had been anyone in the space right next to us, we would have had slide out issues. The sites are level, mostly rock/gravel combo. They have a nice playground, clean restrooms and showers. One washer out of three worked; three dryers out of four. The staff was friendly.

Our family stayed during opening weekend 2026 and had a wonderful time. As it was opening weekend and the campground had recently made some improvements, we had a few minor issues the first day of our stay. That being said, the staff here is amazing and will treat you like family. Our cabin heat wasn’t working properly and within 5 minutes of us reaching out they were knocking on the door with a space heater (even though it was after hours). The couple other minor concerns we had were addressed just as quickly and professionally. I highly recommend staying here. It’s nice to be off the beaten path but close to everything as well. This place truly cares about your experience so if you have any issues- TELL THEM! Issues can always pop up anywhere you stay but this place will address your concerns quickly and with the same level of care they would a family member. 10/10 recommend. We will be staying again for sure!

Selena made our stay! We came in late and were super tired. We drove down from the Dalton and were in dire need of rest. Selena instantly made us feel at home, safe, and comfortable. The next morning she helped us to rent e bikes to take into town and we had an amazing time! Thank you for the recommendation and an awesome experience. I would highly recommend this stop! Thank you Selena for one of our best memories of Alaska!

Great campsites with picnic tables and fire pits. Their on-site laundry and showers are great. The showers in particular are in-door and heated as well as very clean (compared to other locations we've visited). Their staff is quite helpful and accommodating - they even saved a cinnamon roll for us, since they knew we'd be late getting back from our morning excursion.
