Best Tent Camping near Sutton, AK

This is an option if everywhere else is full. There is a sewage dump for $10 so that is a plus. RV sites and tent sites available.

RV spots are not very level so choose wisely.

Perfect place to camp if you're looking for belugas! We rented a kayak nearby and explored the bay. Surreal. The camp sites all had amazing views and the tent sites were forested and pretty private. Lots of locals camp here and offered insider tips about where to see wildlife, eat, etc.

Trails to hike or play on the lake! This campground is situated with access to Eklunta Lake and boy is that perfect. Tons of campsites to choose from both double, single and handicapped. First come, first served. Fire rings, tables, restrooms, firewood for purchase ($15) and camp host. Two sets of walk in tent sites with food lockers also available. Well water available too. Come spend a weekend exploring Eklunta Lake!

I live on base and recently purchased a pop up. Took a maiden voyage here to feel out the beast and work out the kinks. Kids had a great time. All sites were back in other than the tent sites. Walking distance from commissary, bx, and shoppette but still felt like wilderness. Really had a good weekend and would recommend to anyone with base access. Will go again

All you can hear is Highway. This Campground may be considered the better of the three main choices for Anchorage however after asking around with my Anchorage friends I've heard that the homeless over takes this campground at night. After driving through the campground I did notice several questionable tent sites and also several questionable run-down RVs that looked as though they had been there for quite a while.

We drove through King Mountain State Recreation Park in order to get the lay of the land for future camping. We have a 28-foot camper. There were only about three spots worth a darn that would have fit us. This is more of a tent camping only Campground. The camp host was a young guy who could of used a shower and the sites were overgrown and tight some not even having room to park a car although map states they could. We wouldn't choose to stay here as there are prettier campgrounds with more to do.

Open year round with 50/30/20amp sites (seasonal water hook up as well) and tent sites, this small campground is a great place while waiting for a house or on your way out. The bathhouse is super clean, there's dumpsters close by, spaces are decently sized with a picnic table and charcoal grill set up, and trees offer some privacy. There's a playground for the kids, a bike path that can be taken to the shopette or one of the neighborhood playgrounds. Close to the hospital, PX/commissary, and the Muldoon gate.

Centennial camp ground in Anchorage Alaska was a FAB SURPRISE!! Hidden, secret, clean, and big tent spots!

This very small campground is only open in the summer months and has eight spots. There is no cell service out here but the drive and scenery is some of the best Alaska has to offer. Who am I kidding that can be said for just about any of the DNR sites. Sites are along side the Little Su River and are primitive.

These are not large RV sites but if you have a tent or smaller vehicle this is a definite place to check out. Restroom are well maintained.

Cell Service: no Internet: no 2020 Cost: $15 per site Distance from Anchorage: 57 miles Best sites: any if you can find one Bug Factor (1 minimal to 10 too many to enjoy): 5

This is SO clean! Everyone raves about site 13 & 14 but we loved site 24. It was a perfect short walk, less than a minute to the creek. The bathroom near the site is so so so clean. Our family LOVES the host - he manages the campground so beautifully. We’re still new tent campers with 3 young kids and Bob (the host) helped make us feel comfortable and safe. We have a 10 person black out tent and a ram 2500 and I think our site was great for that set up.

Best place to pitch a tent imo, Russ had a great time here too the location was clean well kept

If you are looking for long term life in your RV. Then maybe. Otherwise just keep on driving. You’re in Alaska. There is so much more.

It would have been nice to have a tent only area away from other rv's and a little more space between camp sites.

Our visit was awesome, it's very intimate and allows for 3+ four person tents to fit. There is no cell service so it's a great place to go and disconnect from social media. There are bathrooms and bear boxes available there as well!

I am looking for a campsite put tent down hangout by myself cook on the fire wood buy at the store can you ask much cost stay out here for one night.

Stayed overnight in one of the widely separated tent / RV sites. This campground has plenty of green space between sites although facilities are limited. excellent access to Twin Peaks hiking trail, lake water activities and a 13 mile bike trail around the lake and back to the glacier. Rentals available onsite.
