    Great Family Camping

    Camp hosts were so nice! Good sized spots and all with a River view. Water and electric hook ups at most sites and no noise from generators. Picnic table a fire ring on sites.

    You can rent float tubes for the River and the have life jackets for kids. We are already looking forward to our trip next year.

    Showers!

    I’m not sure if it was the free hot shower, the free coffee in the morning, or the sound of sleeping by running water that sold me. Nice stop on the way to Wrangel and great hosts!

    Klutina Salmon Charters & Campground

    Right on the river

    Well maintained campground. Kind of like a folk festival. Very friendly staff. If you are looking for a great place to camp here it is.

    Call and make reservations! 907-822-3991 or kscharters@gmail.com

    Prices are a little high for tent camping but pretty standard for RVs. Pets are welcome but drive slowly. Not a ton of room between spots.

    Creekside Camping with Amenities

    Tucked back in the woods next to Tolsona Creek this campground is about 15 miles from Glennallen. This campground has a small shop, laundry, showers, flush toilets, dump stations, and offers electrical hook ups for RVs. All campsites appear to be located along the creek. This is a family owned campground that offers daily family friendly activities.

    Don't believe the pictures

    Dirty, upkept , clutter.  Water is super cold,  no one was tubing.  The pictures must be old, because this campground is in bad shape.  No one is watching their children or pets.  My site  had hanging branches and the squirrels where everywhere.  The trash was open which I'm sure did not help

    Not Your Typical Alaskan RV Park!

    This is not your typical Alaskan RV park! Sites are large, spread out and private. Each has a fire ring and a picnic table. All are creekside.

    The owners maintain a camp store with basic necessities and also plan weekend activities and games for kids. Near the camp store are handicap accessible sites, bathrooms, private showers and laundry.

    Near the entrance to the campground is the trailhead to the Tolsona Mud Volcanoes. The trail is usually pretty swampy, so be sure to wear tall boots and dress appropriately for the weather. Trail is 2-2.5mi round trip.

    Not what it once was

    This campground once was a true camping experience. Now it's more of children's activity park.  The office rents tubes and no one monitors where these tubes go,, no peaceful campsites, no fishing. The campground needs full maintenance, the sites are overgrow, the bathhouse is unkept and could use updates,  Just not wilderness, more theme park.
