Best RV Parks & Resorts near Haines, AK

19 Reviews

Several RV parks accommodate motorhomes near Haines, Alaska, with most offering full hookup options during the May to September season. Oceanside RV Park provides 30 sites with 50-amp electrical, water, and sewer connections on level sites. Haines Hitch-Up RV Park features big-rig-friendly pull-through rv pads with full hookups and is located at 851 Main Street within walking distance to town. "This RV park is on the water with lovely views of water and mountains. Check-in was easy, everything worked, everything was super clean," notes one visitor about Oceanside RV Park. Salmon Run RV Campground operates from April 15 to October 15 with electric and water hookups but lacks sewer connections or sanitary dump facilities.

Road access to Chilkoot Lake State Recreation Site may present challenges for larger motorhomes, though the campground does accommodate RVs with electric, water, and sewer hookups. Many RV parks in the area maintain strict seasonal operations, typically closing by mid-September. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, cellular service varies significantly between downtown locations and more remote campgrounds. Oceanside and Haines Hitch-Up RV Parks permit pets, while some parks restrict alcohol consumption. For waste disposal, sanitary dump stations are available at select locations including Oceanside RV Park and Chilkoot Lake State Recreation Site. Campers planning visits during peak summer months should secure reservations well in advance, as limited RV camping options fill quickly during the tourist season.

    Garden City RV Park

    Great location and facilities

    Location is convenient next to the rec center and a few blocks from town. The restrooms are clean. There’s a coin operated shower and coin operated laundry on site. There are picnic tables and vending machines as well. Skagway is a great place to stop and this is definitely my favorite rv park. The rate is pretty reasonable in comparison to other parks in town. Plus, you can't beat the view. More spots available during "shoulder seasons" (April or October)

    Chilkoot Lake State Recreation Site

    Haines = Heaven

    Everything about Haines is amazing. The mountains in this part of Alaska are towering and incredible. There are lots of camping opportunities in Haines including a small rustic campground right in town a short walking distance of the fast ferry. That campsite is about $5 and based on the honor system. This Chilkoot Lake area is much farther from the ferries, but a beautiful area. You will need to find a car to drive you out to the area. The area features a wide river and scenic mountain hikes and views.

    Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve

    Tucked Away & Gorgeous!

    Just a few miles south of downtown Haines, this campground offers an amazing launching site for adventures in the Chilkat Inlet and around the peninsula. We arrived here without any reservation in late June on our way to Juneau and Glacier Bay and were delighted by this quiet and lovely campground. If you’re on foot or bike, there is a much closer walk-in campground just south of downtown. The approach to the Chilkat campground is on a steep dirt road which is pretty good by Alaskan standards, but the campsites cannot accommodate larger rigs. There are plenty of downtown RV parks for those. 

    There are a few pull-through sites, but the rest have a double-parking set up, where two campsites share a paved parking area and the campsite is to the left or right of the pavement, perfect for small groups. Bathrooms are vault-style and we found them clean and well stocked. Water spigots are scattered throughout the loop. For walk-in fans, there are a few lovely sites down near the water. We were without our trailer on this trip so found a lovely spot to pitch our tent. These sites don’t offer electrical hookups, so bring your solar panels and/or solar generator and you’ll be all set. 

    There is a day use area down by the water with a full boat launch, picnic tables, and vault toilet. The views of the surrounding coastal mountains here are stunning. The park would make the perfect place to launch your sea kayaking adventures in the area. There appear to be some longer-term parking areas just up the hill next to the Ranger/ Camp Host cabin. 

    With downtown Haines just a few miles away, you have access to everything you might need: full grocery store, liquor store, restaurants and coffee shops as well as an excellent Visitor’s information center right in the middle of town.

    Chilkoot Lake State Recreation Site

    Gorgeous!!

    If anything in Haines can convince you it's one of Alaska's finest spots, it's Chilkoot Lake state recreation area. Beautiful wooded campsites with fire rings, picnic tables, and flat areas for tents.. and a short walk (often can see from your site) to the lake where a beautiful show occurs each time the sun sets. I never wanted to leave!

    Chilkoot Lake State Recreation Site

    Went for the day

    I biked here from Haines in June, it is such a lovely area! I did a tour of the campground and it looks very nice. The boat launch area is perfect for a picnic, and the lake is perfect for a paddle! They even have childrens PFDs to borrow, should you forget to bring some. Keep an eye out for wildlife, there are lots of grizzlies around.

    Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve

    Gift on a sunny day

    Beautiful park and campground. During busy months this place will be packed but on the shoulder season I had almost the whole campground to myself. Clean facilities, AT&T cell service as good as in town when in the day use area

    Garden City RV Park

    Great Campground

    Hot showers, laundry, and a great price. It’s easy to walk to downtown Skagway and close to the library for free WiFi. No fire pits is the only downside.

    Pullen Creek and RV Park

    Not ideal

    Maybe in the winter this would be a better spot. Though beautiful, it's very busy. It's right next to the small boat harbor, and the rail road dock, so there's traffic from fishing boats, the small ferry, and the cruise ships. It's convenient to town, close to the liquor store. The plus side-it's close to Pullen Creek where the salmon run, there are plenty of facilities, and it's close to the trailhead for lower and upper lake.

    Dyea Campground — Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park

    Dyea Flats

    Take Dyea road all the way down over the the Taiya River bridge. It says the max height is 11’2” - That’s not correct - Mack Trucks fit over this bridge and drive it regularly. Take a left after the bridge and go past the town historic site and campground. You’ll likely already see other RVs on the flats. They’re not monitored by the campground other than someone coming by occasionally to check the site for clean up.

    Do not park too close to the beach - it has a infamously high tide. You’ll see the algae lines from past tides. It is beautiful and quiet but is frequented by tourists during the day and ATVs.

    There are two brown tipped black bears that frequent the area. You can see them looking for fish at low tide or playing together in the meadow. They are small but not cubs. Most black bears in the area are very small.

    There is a long to do around this area of Dyea and you’re about a 20-25 min drive from Skagway.
