Bing Brown's RV Park features 15 sites with both 30 and 50-amp electrical options. "Sites are large and offer fire pits and picnic tables. Extra vehicles are charged the same fee as the RV."

Most RV parks in the region require advance reservations during peak salmon fishing season when availability becomes extremely limited.

Edgewater RV Resort offers prime riverside locations popular with anglers, though reviews note these sites fill quickly during fishing runs.

Cell service varies throughout the peninsula, with stronger connections in Soldotna and more limited coverage in outlying areas. Winter camping options are severely restricted, with most parks closing after Labor Day. A review noted that "the road through the campground should be checked before you drive through. Some parts would not be passable for an RV during our visit."

    Ocean Shores RV Park

    nice area great views

    We had a good stay here in our 40' toy hauler. The power, water, and cable worked good. The rate shown is the total bill for a weekly rate of$321 with taxes and fees added. Some things to note about the park. The whole park slopes downward toward the beach bluff, however they did a reasonable job terracing each site so it is mostly level. As a result each site uphill is 12 to 18 inches higher. The center sites are back to back and they will park your RV even with the electric box at rear, so you may have challenges parking your towed vehicle or tow vehicle at your site depending on your total length, but we managed ok. The lane between rows is narrow. If you"pull through" to your site through an empty one, it is easy. If you have to back in it may be a challenge and you may need to get people to move tow vehicles. Smaller motorhomes and short trailers may not have any issues. We had to have one person move a vehicle to pull out when we left. In fact we left a day early in the afternoon because I wanted to be sure I could get out. If all the guests had been in the park with the tow vehicles or towed park, I could not have pulled out early in the morning without waking people up to move vehicles. We camped at Ocean Shores RV Park in a Fifth Wheel.

    Discovery Campground

    Terrific campground

    Wonderful stay at 50 site primitive campground. Big rig friendly, clean, private sites. Clean vault toilets, pump for water, trash, no dump station. Lots of wildlife - moose with calves in cg. Great fishing in Cooks Inlet, Stormy Lake, and Swanson River all steps from the campground. Beachcombing and rockhounding on beach. Stunning views.

    Cooper Creek North Campground

    Lovely convenient campground

    It's salmon fishing season and you can tell people are staying here to fish the Kenai River, which is great. It was a very convenient campsite off the highway on the way to Homer, in the national forest. only $23 a night to camp or $11.50 if your a senior or have an access pass. Great prize for Alaska, but of course no amenities at site such as water, electric etc. It's a dry spot.

    Good size sites and level spots with picnic table and fire pit. Enjoyed our night here ...

    Kenai Princess Wilderness Lodge & RV Park

    Met Our Needs

    We followed our RV GPS and turned off AK-1 at Bean Creek Rd, which brought us to the Kenai Princess RV Park. A steep left turn led to the office, where we had a super friendly check-in. There was an RV in our site when we arrived, but the office quickly moved them to the overflow. The sites were split on two sides of a wide road with a large turnaround area, so backing into Site 35 with FHUs (30 AMP) was easy. The site was long enough for our 40’ toy hauler, including dropping the patio, and we could still park our F450 crosswise. Sewer connections were at the back center of the pad, with water and electric at the center—no issues. Water pressure was about 40 PSI. Because of perimeter trees and fishermen’s vehicles, we set Starlink on the roof for a clear sky shot. Verizon gave us 2 bars, while T-Mobile had no service. There were paths around the campground to the lodge and down to the lake, which we enjoyed walking with our pups. There weren’t many grocery options in Cooper Landing. The nearest major amenities were about an hour away in Soldotna. Overall, this was a decent campground that met our needs.

    Russian River - TEMPORARILY CLOSED

    Russian river camp ground alaska

    Amazing weekend. Tucked back in the chugach national forest is a quiet campground that is hard to get into without prior planning. No Rv hookups but does have a dump station and potable wAter. Campsites are nicely spaced so your not camping on top of each other. Amazing fishing for trout and salmon. Lots of hiking trails and tons of tourist activities near by.

    Whiskey Point Cabins & RV Park

    Outstanding Experience

    Traveling south on AK-1 was busy but straightforward, and the campground was easy to access on the right just before Anchor Point. Since we were going to arrive early, we called ahead to see if we could come in at 12:30 PM instead of their 3:00 PM check-in. They said yes, and check-in was a breeze at the small office, which also sold T-shirts, hats, fishing supplies, and a few sundries. We stayed in Site A, a back-in with FHUs (30 AMP). The gravel/sand area in front of Sites A, B, and C was wide enough for easy maneuvering, though because it had been raining we used 4-wheel drive so our 40’ 5th wheel toy hauler wouldn’t leave ruts. The sites were fairly close together, but not uncomfortably so. What made Sites A–C special was the ocean view from the patios. Site C only fit a short rig. Site A, on the end, also bordered a shared common area where guests could gather to enjoy the water views and sunsets from a high hill perch. Utilities were well placed, with water pressure at 35–40 PSI. Verizon service gave us 2 bars of LTE, while T-Mobile was limited to 1 bar roaming. The campground did not have WiFi, but Starlink had a clear shot thanks to the open sky and trees only along the perimeter. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay—especially the ocean view from Site A.

    4.5 stars for this RV park. They have everything you need. Laundry/showers/bathrooms. 50/30 amp electric, sewer, water. Small dog run. They have a fish charter service, as well as fish cleaning stations. They also fillet, vacuum pack freeze and ship your catch. We really enjoyed ourselves here.

    Russian River - TEMPORARILY CLOSED

    Fisherman's paradise

    We spend many days at the Russian during the peak of salmon season. When the reds (sockeye) are in, whether it be the first run or the second, the Russian River Campground is the place to be. Sites are nestled in the woods and feature a paved driveway, metal fire pits with top grate, picnic table, and large bear/animal proof lockers for food and gear. Trees and shrubs abound - no scorched earth campsites here. Some sites are singles, others doubles and a few pull-throughs for larger campers and those towing boats & toys. No water or electric hookups. Toilets and non-potable water located in each loop. FYI, this is bear country - we've had bears walk through camp and past us on the river. Read up on bear safety prior to staying at the Russian!

    Sign up through Recreation.gov as soon as the registration window opens (6 months prior) since spaces fill up incredibly fast. If you're planning on fishing, try to book one of the loops closest to the Russian River or its confluence with the Kenai River. Otherwise it's quite a hike down to the water.

    Baycrest RV Park

    Inlet View

    Great for a quick stay, full hook ups, beautiful view when the weather cooperates, but it’s 9 miles from town, so if you’re in a motor home you’ll need a tow vehicle


Guide to Kasilof

Kasilof campers typically base themselves in Soldotna or Sterling, communities along the Kenai Peninsula providing convenient access to world-class salmon fishing. Most RV parks operate seasonally from May through mid-September when Alaska weather permits comfortable camping. Winter temperatures drop well below freezing with limited services available during off-season months.

What to do

Fishing access points: River Terrace Campground provides private boardwalk access for salmon fishing on the Kenai River. "If you want to salmon fish for a few weeks every summer this is the place. You can call and check to see when there running or you can just check with Alaska Fish and Game," notes reviewer Darrel F.

Charter services on-site: Alaskan Angler RV Resort offers fish charter services with cleaning stations where staff will "fillet, vacuum pack freeze and ship your catch" according to Lynn G.

Local hiking trails: The area surrounding Moose Crossing RV & Food Truck Park includes short walking paths suitable for dog exercise. Reviewer MickandKarla W. mentioned "ample space for walking dogs, including a short trail" making it suitable for short day hikes.

What campers like

Community events: Klondike RV Park creates social opportunities for guests. Andrea W. reported being "invited to a delicious salmon chowder gathering on the spot" where campers can connect with fellow travelers.

Riverside locations: Edgewater Lodge and RV Resort features "very large RV and tent sites right along the rivers edge" according to Tanya B., providing direct water access for anglers.

Connectivity options: Campers appreciate reliable internet access during their stays. At Moose Crossing RV Park, "The CG WiFi ran at about 20 Mbps, which was fine for email, browsing, and checking Facebook" reports MickandKarla W., while also noting "2 bars on Verizon, 1 bar on T-Mobile, and a decent sky view for Starlink."

What you should know

Water quality varies: Some parks have issues with water quality despite offering hookups. At Moose Crossing, reviewers noted "Water pressure was solid at around 45 psi, but the water had a noticeable sulfur taste and smell."

Space limitations: Mackey Lake RV and Cabins offers only three camping spots total, creating a "very quiet" experience in a "residential area" according to Melissa B., but requires advance planning due to limited availability.

Seasonal crowding: Fishing runs create predictable busy periods. For River Terrace Campground, Tanya B. observed "No spots to be had on a sunny weekend in the middle of August," while another reviewer noted "When they're running in the thousands it's pretty much full so you would need to reserve ahead."

Tips for camping with families

Consider tent camping alternatives: Not all sites cater to traditional tent setups. Tanya B. notes about Klondike RV Park: "Normally my family travels in a large 10 person tent and a suburban. We enjoyed going places large RVs can't."

Food options on-site: Certain parks provide convenient dining for families. Moose Crossing features two food trucks run by campground hosts—"one gyro-themed, the other espresso and ice cream," eliminating the need to cook every meal.

Proximity to supplies: Bing Brown's location offers "somewhere easy to pull off on the Sterling highway on the way to Homer" according to Tanya B., making it convenient for restocking supplies during longer trips.

Tips from RVers

Satellite reception considerations: Site selection impacts connectivity options. At Moose Crossing, reviewers noted pull-through sites offer "a decent sky view for Starlink—though perimeter sites may have more tree cover and less visibility."

Campground approach conditions: Access roads require attention before committing to sites. MickandKarla W. advises following "emailed check-in instructions" at Moose Crossing where they "pulled to the right, and registered at the kiosk."

Utility placement: RV campers should note hookup locations. At Moose Crossing RV Park, "Utilities were well placed and centered on the pad, which was a plus" according to reviewers, making setup easier for travelers.
