Hidden gem

Excellent boon-docking Rv camp. Very convenient location close to ALCAN border. Come early to choose the best spot.

Great Place to Camp Before / After the ALCAN Border Crossing

We were lucky enough to visit this FREE (volunteer serviced) campground twice, once on our way into Alaska and once more on our way out. Just about 30 minutes from the US border services and 52 miles from the Canadian border services, this place is ideally suited to travelers.. And the endless sunset in the fall...well, our pictures tell that story!

Most of the campsites are small and will only accommodate rigs less than 30 feet total length, but a few might fit if you’re creative and skillful. The sites all have a picnic table and fire ring, and like many Alaskan campsites there are bear lockers for food storage for cyclists and motorcycle campers. The bathrooms were clean vault toilets, but drinking water wasn’t available - except from the lake.  While the campsites were wooded, there was a lot of open sky and the long days meant that we had plenty of solar power.  Roof top panels should be fine in many sites and portable solar suitcases could be put out in the others to collect what you need. 

Bring your paddle boats, with access to the lake right at the bottom of the loop, the paddling and fishing opportunities are great, and the waterfowl viewing is simply stunning. A short trail leads to a bird blind where birding enthusiasts can bring out their big lenses. Walking and hiking opportunities are limited to along the ALCAN, and watch out for the neighbor’s dogs when you go back up to the intersection – they take their "guard dog" job seriously. 

The nearest services are in Northway Junction which has occasional gas, another 45 miles toward Fairbanks and you reach the village of Tok, which offers all the things campers along the ALCAN need.  Be aware that the prices in Tok are less expensive than in Glen Allen at the local Three Bears grocery store, so stock up if you’re heading south along the Tok Cut-Off Hwy.
