Montana Creek State Recreation Area

1 ReviewAdd Review

Accessible via paved road, Montana Creek State Recreation Area provides 88 sites with drinking water, restrooms, and picnic tables. RV sites accommodate units up to 30 feet, though maneuvering space runs narrow for larger rigs. The state-managed facility maintains clean bathrooms and allows campfires with available firewood for purchase.

A tunnel connects the state recreation area to an adjacent private campground, which operates separate online reservations. Cell service reaches the area, and both drive-in and walk-in sites are available. Campers can explore campgrounds near Talkeetna for additional options in the region. Sites cost $7-$25 per night with advance reservations recommended during peak season.

State park not the private one across the street

RV parking was narrow. Large RV maneuvering is difficult. Well maintained state park and had very clean bathrooms.

Tunnel under the road connects the state park to the private park.

Do not be fooled. The online registration is for the private park.
