This campground is located about 80 miles from what people traditionally think of when they think of Denali National Park (i.e. Cruise ship hotels, restaurants, buses into the park, etc). So if you are wanting/needing to be close to that, then don't stay here. Also if you like solitude don't stay here as it is quite busy. That being said it is a beautiful campground with some epic views of Denali, Foraker and Hunter when the mountain is out. If your socked in, it is still nice views but just not the same epicness. Everything seemed to be well maintained and got relatively quiet at night when I stayed there.
