"Saw a few with overlapping awnings
72 is a great site, our 30 ft 5er and f250 fitted in fine, but some caution needs to be exercised when driving. Trees made Starlink coverage a bit spotty."

"Vrey nice facility, clean, shallow lake great for kayaking swimming and fishing. Downside is that you cannot use this lake without paying, even if you walk in."
"We rented a canoe and fished on the lake. The kids also went swimming on a super hot day with life vests available to borrow."
Everything was super clean and the hosts were very nice!
The river basin was cut off by a large flow of river limiting all vehicles to a small dirt driveway; fortunately there were few people camping so we made camp for the night. The mosquitoes were so bad however we stayed in the rv all night which is not our style.
Has porta potty, bear safe trash, streetlight, off road enough to not be too loud, there are often people around but they’re not loud, good low-key place to be, just stay respectful of the area and don’t bother anyone, you’ll be left alone
Great location for families. Quite
The campground is very well kept. All the facilities(wc, showers, laundry) were spotless and looked nice.
This is just a pull off off the highway. Meant for rest stops for rvs and such. Definitely got for tent use. Avoid.
Not the most remote or glamorous camping as it is close to the road. However, it is close to the river, good views, and riding trails.
About 40 years of tent and RV camping
After breaking camp in Denali this was a great spot just far enough down the road to take a shower and do laundry. After 3 days of camp food the Thai restaurant right up the road was a dream come true. The showers and laundry worked flawlessly!,!,
