SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Fishing and river access draw campers to this municipal campground in Anderson, Alaska, where sites sit either along the riverbed or in hookup-equipped spots on higher ground. The property covers a large parcel, and reviewers note that back roads get bumpy, so RV drivers should stay on the main routes. Amenities include showers, toilets, a dump station, electric hookups, and a small playground. The campground also hosts a gun range and has held bluegrass festival events. Campers looking for places to camp near Nenana will find this a workable base along the Parks Highway corridor. The site runs year-round at $20 to $25 per night, though visiting after the season opens in late spring gives the best chance of finding hosts on-site.

Unique

This very Alaskan campground has lots of options. You can camp at the river bed or in some sites with hookups. When we went there in mid September it was deserted. There is a gun range. This campground is on a large parcel of land so what the backroads they get bumpy. RVs should stick to the main roads.
