Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Kenny Lake, AK

We really enjoyed camping here. This was our first place we camped in Alaska and it was very clean. It has a beautiful view with the lake right there and the beavers are very active. Clean bathrooms

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.

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.

This camp ground really makes you appreciate the freedom to explore Alaska and see all the beauty. This is one of the most beautiful waterfalls I’ve seen in Alaska. Although this campground is just off the road system, the roads in Alaska can always use some work. Take your time and enjoy the drive but make sure you’re prepared - stores and gas are few in far between once you get back into this terrain.

One of my favorite stops in Alaska 🤘🏻

Best place we stayed on our 900 mile round trip starting from Fairbanks. Fishing was good. Took us about an hour to land 4 sockeyes. Owners came down, gave us tips and offered to loan some gear we hadn't realized we needed. Bald eagles were playing, and flying around all day. The campsite we picked was by the river, plenty of room, picnic table, fire pit and a spot for our car.

This place is truly local and supports local. We were treated like locals even though we were 2000 miles from home and never been to Alaska before. I'm looking forward to coming back next year.

I definitely recommend this place for anyone who isn't impressed by people being herded from national parks into resorts, funnelled into gift shops reselling Walmart apparel and overpriced "dinner theatres".

If you are looking for a place for a hot shower this is the stop to make. Very nice people running the mercantile. If you are just stopping on the way you can get gas or grab items you forgot. Great place to grab some ice cream on a hot day or a bag of ice.

There are no picnic tables or benches so bring your own. I would not recommend a long camping trip here but this is a wonderful place to stop off. They also have rooms for rent.

Loved the location. Close to Glenallen and not far from Valdez. Lots of spots with great shade. We found a spot in the back right on the creek. Left to go to Valdez and came back and found the same spot still open. Absolutely loved the campground minus the mosquitos.

25 sites all with trees galore, tables and firepits. $20 a night along the bank of squirrel creek. Bear proof trash cans, restrooms and potable water. This is a wonderful weekend stop to fish and berry pick.

Actually saw a squirrel within 5 minutes of being there. This is a well maintained campground with clean bathrooms. Spots along the river. Great place to stop for the night.

Campground was not full so if you run out of options this is a great choice. Worth the drive to Worthington Glacier and Valdez.

Great on the road stop but not a destination place. Nice and clean but very wired traffic pattern. Well Maintained trails.

This is a really great stop over camp site for road trips. The sites are all different and pretty secluded, hardly saw anyone while there (September).

Great swimming hole and wonderful berry picking. Clear water creek and lake. Nice beach and secluded campsites.

Perfect place to camp

Tiny camp site with beautiful waterfall. Really nice spot to listen to green noises.

Cannot reserve. Get there early in the week and stay the weekend. This campground only has 10 spots but is worth it. Spots are small but the waterfall is amazing. There is a great place to splash in the water at the base of this waterfall. This is one of those once in a life time spots so if you drive by and there is an open space take it.

There is great ground for tent camping as well.

Gorgeous waterfall but very limited camping spots, about 5 in all with a couple walk in tent sites. First come first serve basis but all sites have a beautiful view of the creek and waterfall. Mostly tent sites only one or two sites big enough for an RV. The campground along is worth stopping in to see the waterfall if nothing else.

10 sites and one bathroom. Three of the sites are private. At least three of them can be an RV site. Great for community camping ⛺️. Gorgeous waterfall with most camping on the creek. Can’t wait to go back to take the trail a 100 yards up the road.

Beautiful campground! Not many sites, but a few right by the waterfall. It’s a shard turn off the road so when coming near Chitna keep your eyes peeled.

Also great for a short hike!

Pros: tent platforms to practice those LNT skills!

Best drinking water anywhere. Has hand pump well. Clean out houses. Great camping by the creek. Thundering waterfalls.

This is one of the most beautiful camping areas I have ever seen. We were only looking for a place to pull off and use the restroom but we were so caught up by the cleanliness and beauty of the area that we decided to eat lunch at one of the picnic tables near the falls. There are only a handful of camping sites and the bathrooms are brand new pit toilets. There is a hand pump for water across the bridge. The campground is split with a wooden bridge crossing a river flowing from the waterfall. I hope to come back here someday and actually camp here!

I've reviewed this campground before but found some more information about it. It costs $20 to camp here per the listing in the Milepost. I was here in May and they weren't ready for the summer camping season. No pricing was posted but the honor box is still available right when you drive in. Only one pit toilet was open in the off season and the water was locked. Bear proof trash recepticals are still available. There are 6 campsites with fire rings and picnic tables. 4 of the campsites have tent pads. There are also lots of trees where you could hang a hammock! Cell reception was spotty here.

We came across this campground riding into wrangell st elias and decided to check it out. Lots of porcupines in the area which was neat. Not very private but not bad. Beautiful drive to get there

Quiet and awsome

Later in the summer here the better the experience 🤘🏻

Amazing camping right on the Copper River. This is the people’s land and managed by AHTNA Native Corp and well worth the $10 for day parking or $20 for overnight. As with all river bed camping watch where you drive. Stopped here to watch the boats float the Copper River. There are pay stations everywhere but I did not see any bathrooms. So with that being said and little trees around I just held it.

My suggestion is find a spot near the tree line.

Fish, eagles and big rivers! Windy, dusty, bears and dipneters. Fishwheels and historic Copper River North Western Rail Road bed. Major bridge over Copper River.
