    Miller's Landing

    Enchanting, Alaskan, Awesome

    We absolutely love Miller’s Landing campground! It offers the best of feeling like you’re in a tall wooded forest as well as being right on the ocean! I always feel like I’m in an enchanted forest. The office building that you check into offers a seating area you can sit in and enjoy a cup of coffee if it’s raining, or if you need to escape the sun! They also have an awesome covered back deck that overlooks resurrection bay. Rocking chairs and views are a great combination! Campsites for tents are spacious and the running water bathrooms are cleaned daily. Charters and kayak tours go in and out daily. Always fun to beach comb and explore tide pools when the tide is out! Also, sunsets ( when the sun goes down here in Alaska) are breathtaking! Dogs are allowed. Highly recommend this camp ground!

    Seward Military Resort

    Great end to a wonderful trip

    Seward Military Resort was out last campground of our 8 night trip. We used the resort to set up our tent and venture out into Seward to go ice climbing on the nearby Exit Glacier (pictures and video below). The site is on the small side and really close to one other tent site and the yurts. No mosquitoes, people adhere to quiet hours, and it's close to a wealth of activities in Seward.

    Williams Park

    A great spot to set up a tent back from the water where trees provide some shelter from the wind. It is well maintained and basic. The sites have fire pits and picnic tables. Some sites have lots of trees and some have pretty sparse tree coverage. You have a pretty good selection on sites. Sites with trees come in handy when you need traps for rain protection. A pretty good campground in Seward's camping offerings.

    Miller's Landing

    Wedding Reception at Uncle Steve’s Cabin

    Perfect spot for a small wedding reception! The bon fire pit and grill gave an fun and cozy vibe while the cabin had comfortable beds and a warm stove while it was rainy. The stove would fog up the one of the big windows, but the window next it to was fine.

    Seward City Campgrounds

    Perfect location

    You can't beat a location like this if being in the heart of Seward is what you're after. This campground is right on the waterfront in the downtown area, along a paved path. Sites are situated right next to each other, mostly on gravel with some grass. Some hookups available for an extra fee. These sites fill up on holiday weekends, especially 4th of July which is Seward's biggest holiday. No reservations taken so make sure to come early on Friday or midweek for a spot. It's a short walk to restaurants, shops and the SeaLife Center. Flush toilets, running water and showers (extra fee) available. If you have kiddos, a large and beautiful playground is nearby, along with a skate park.

    Seward Military Resort

    Clean and organized

    Resort area is well organized. RV sites are well-priced, though you won’t get the views that the state sites in town have along the shore. Like many hook-up campgrounds, the RV sites are sterile-feeling (standard parking lot style). Okay if you plan to be out & about all day but not ideal for hanging out around the RV. Campfires only allowed off to the side in a picnic area.

    Bathrooms very clean and warm.

    Yurts would be my go-to if I were to come again or recommend to family. Fun experience. Fire pits nearby.

    Tent sites are really just a patch of grass between the row of Yurts and the playground/bathroom. You could find much more scenic spots not too far unless you’re just looking for a place to lay your head.

    Seward City Campgrounds

    Good in a pinch

    If you want to tent camp in Seward there are better choices than the city campground, but for a last-minute throw your gear in the car or on the train trip, this will do. The sites are first-come, first-serve, and on a busy weekend will fill up quickly. The sites are not separate from each other at all, which normally is a huge turn-off for me, but we happened to be camped next to some super-cool new friends.

    The best part about this location is the proximity to the bars in Seward. Stumbling home to your tent after a night at the Yukon is infinitely preferable to driving to a further removed location.

    The washroom has running water and clean toilets, and a slightly longer walk away are hot showers (for a fee). The tent camping is located right next to a great playground, so if you have younger kids this might be a good choice for you.

    Trail River

    Camping is good but the day use area is the best part

    We enjoyed the camping here but the day use are was the real show stopper here! The lake is one of the most beautiful views in alaska in my opinion. facilities are clean and spacious. Picnic tables and fire pits at each spot.

Guide to Moose Pass

Moose Pass sits at an elevation of 450 feet in Alaska's Kenai Peninsula, with summer temperatures averaging 45-65°F and winter temperatures dropping to 10-30°F. The area's camping options range from waterfront sites with fishing access to forested retreats with mountain views. Rainfall averages 19 inches annually, creating lush forests that surround most camping areas.

What to do

Fishing excursions on Trail River: At Trail River Campground, you can enjoy excellent fishing access. "This is a huge campground. 91 spots, a group site and a loop just for RVs and can be booked online," explains one camper who notes the campground's extensive facilities for anglers.

Kayaking on nearby lakes: Trail River offers calm waters perfect for paddling. "Bring your kayak - an early morning paddle is what everyone needs," advises one visitor who found the lake access convenient for spontaneous water activities.

Explore World War II history: North Beach at Caines Head State Recreation Area offers hiking trails to historic sites. "Fort McGilvray is an old abandoned WW2 fort that is worth the hike uphill to explore. Bring a flashlight. Really gorgeous views of the bay from the top," recommends a visitor who appreciated the educational opportunity.

Beach activities at lower tides: The coastal areas provide excellent beachcombing opportunities. "Making a camp fire on the pebble beach to cook our dinner and watch the sun go down couldn't have been a better way to end the day," reports a camper at North Beach at Caines Head State Rec Area.

What campers like

Lakeside camping with privacy: Trail River Campground offers secluded sites. "There are beautiful little paths between the camp sites that makes this place feel like a fairytale. The lake is one of the most beautiful in the world, and virtually all yours," notes a repeat visitor highlighting the natural setting.

Convenient beach access: Miller's Landing provides waterfront sites. "You do get to pass a pretty cool waterfall on the way. Some perks to the place are free coffee, showers $2/10 minutes, pot luck once a weekend, boat launch, cabin rentals, kayaking/tours and much more," shares a satisfied camper about the Miller's Landing facilities.

Quality tent platforms: Some glamping options near Moose Pass include elevated camping spots. "We found South Beach to be a wonderful place to camp. There are a few brand new wooden platforms that we set one of our tents up on, but there are lots of sites both in the woods a little way for wind protection but also along the beach," notes a visitor who appreciated the camping infrastructure.

Group facilities: Several campgrounds offer shared spaces. "The camp itself has a playground and basketball courts and tennis courts for fun and you're also just a few blocks from the elementary school playground as well," mentions a reviewer about the family-friendly amenities at a local resort.

What you should know

Seasonal considerations: Most sites have limited availability. "Cell Service: no, Internet: no, 2020 Cost: $18, Distance from Anchorage: 97 miles," notes a camper who documented the practical details at Trail River Campground.

Access challenges: Some glamping sites near Moose Pass require planning. "The campground is either accessible via boat or hiking in at LOW TIDE ONLY. It is a lovely hike along the coast with views of eagles, bears, glaciers etc. 5.1 miles one way from Lowell point," warns a visitor about the logistics of reaching North Beach.
