This wooded campground is pretty basic, and cheerless, but did the job for a night or two.  It has a great location, just off the Parks Highway in Wasilla, and can be very quiet. In sunnier weather this village supported campground could be lovely. It was raining and chilly in August when we came through, which made it pretty dreary and muddy.  What it lacks in charm, it makes up for in convenience and the quiet, location is the big win here. 

The bathrooms were extremely spacious, clean vault toilets, with no showers or running water.  Water is available in the campground near the entrance to the campground loop. There are some walking trails leading to the soccer fields, and throughout the woodland park, down to the lake for boating, fishing or paddling.  Cycling the nearby area would also be a great way to get around, see the area, and get some exercise. 

The nearby town of Wasilla offers more than the usual suspects for services in an Alaskan small city. Groceries, laundry, gas, mechanics, coffee shops and an array of restaurants are all within a short drive from the campground. The Iditarod Trail Museum and center is about½ mile away so be sure to check that out while there.
