"When I think of Alaska and Hollywood this is the awesomeness that comes to mind about beautiful locations"
LegendFrom a previous scouting trip my parents stayed here one night and LOVED it. We recommend that they stay in a parking lot area after our Bugpocalypse a few weeks prior. They reported no bugs here. The spot was reserved it in advance and the reservation requests the side the RVs slides are on. You are greeted by a golf cart on arrival they show you to your spot and directed you in so that they would have no issues using their slides. The views of Valdez are amazing no matter where you go. There is a tent area in the center and this park is close to everything. These are full hook ups and if you remember a cable you can get cable TV too. There is a huge area to walk your furry travel buddies as well. If you are staying Valdez this is an excellent choice.

LegendGorgeous views of mountains and glacier abound. This campground is by far the best in Valdez if you want woods and not waterfront. Previously military only, now everyone is welcome. Pavilion and day use area, showers and restrooms of course. Also RV site with hookups and lots without. Tent sites too. Tons of sites to choose from your bound to find the perfect one for you. Lots of pull through sites for larger rigs, firewood for purchase $8 so grab it before you come. Nice deep sites with plenty of wood coverage for privacy. Only downside is that it is a bit far from downtown but close to the Valdez Glacier and Lake access. Sorry for the watery pictures I waited till we were headed out to take them and it had started raining my then.
TravelerWe only planned on staying here a few days but ended up staying a week. They have full hook up sites. Walking distance to town and grocery store . They were very friendly and clean & safe camping. They keep the bears out and provide free coffee .
LegendAfter checking out all the campgrounds for RV's in Valdez this would be ranked as #3 for us. Tight spots, awning to awning, make it lack privacy and being a large gravel area has it lacking in charm. There are full hookups and ut backs up against the gas station and grocery store so convenient in that way. All the RV campgrounds in town are within walking distance to the docks so choose wisely.
TravelerThe location is unbeatable. You are right by the harbor and walking distance to shops/ restaurants. Down side is you’re right in the middle of everything so it’s more of a parking lot than a scenic spot. Spots were a little tight and you can hear your neighbors conversations. There are no fire rings and we don’t think campfire is allowed. But bathrooms are clean. The harbor is beautiful. Stay here if you want to be centrally located.
LegendThis campground was exactly what we were looking for. It is conveniently located in town within walking distance of the grocery stores, restaurants, and harbor. Surrounded by gorgeous mountains you will wake up with beautiful views of the sunrise over the mountains. There were not many campers here when we stayed, but I think this place fills up during the tourist season and fishing season. There is also a station to clean the fish you caught. Showers are available as part of the expenses. We opted for tent camping in the green in the middle of the rv park, but they also have cabins for rent and hookups for rvs.
LegendTent camping review. Being in the middle of a small city, this place was great. It's proximity to everything was extremely convenient. The tent sites aren't huge but there's plenty of privacy between them (I can't remember what site we picked but we were in shoulder season and the only ones there). The showers were hot and bathrooms were clean. Available coin laundry is also a bonus (even though we didn't need to use them). I believe the sites usually have a fire ring and picnic table but we were there when they were getting ready to close. The campground owner did warn us of a black bear that had been wandering around the campground. There was scat and we did hear him one night but didn't have any problems sharing the space with him.
GuideThis spot is AWESOME! The tent sites are centrally located, but the location feels super private. The tent sites have access to laundry, good drinking water, dish washing, bathrooms, HOT showers(!), fire rings, picnic tables, and some spots even have platforms for tents. Each spot is enclosed with foliage. There are stairs up to the spots, so do know that before bringing heavy items, but it’s totally worth it. We stayed three nights and I will definitely be back.
LegendSituated beautifully up in Thompson Pass is Blueberry Lake and on that lake is Blueberry Lake State Rec Site. With 14 campsites it's small but surrounded in beauty. Site 15 is reserved for the host. This is raw camping just restrooms, firepits, and picnic tables. The whole campground is paved which is wonderful and there are two pavilions along the lake for use. Blueberries abound for picking when in season and Valdez is just a pretty drive down the road. Loved everything about this campground. Wonderfully clean bathrooms and only $25 a night.
