    Valdez KOA

    Very nice woodsy spot!

    Valdez KOA has super friendly staff and they’ve gone above and beyond to make accommodations for our party which includes an rv family and a cabin family. Very pretty spot with some space to walk the dogs and a fantastic bike/walking trail (also very helpful with walking dogs). We’ve seen plenty of bears (black mostly and one grizzly on a hike). You do need a car to get to Valdez or to some of the waterfalls/hiking as the campground is about 8 miles outside of town.

    Valdez KOA

    Previously Bear Creek

    Remember there are two seasons in Alaska. Winter and construction. Plan for extra travel time.

    Amazing views. Better than the parking lot RV parks in town. Well maintained and centrally located. If you are looking for hook ups this is the place to go. Camp in the wilderness but still get your emails.

    So close to so many side trips. Bridal falls, Robe lake, Solomon Gulch hatchery, and so many others.

    Bear Paw RV Park II (Adults Only)

    Wished I was tent camping

    This is an amazing place especially if you are tent camping. The other spots close by are parking lots or overgrown buggy areas. Close to hiking trails I would try this spot before any others.

    Allison Point Campground

    Fishing for Salmon

    The campground is along the road. It is just gravel sights. It was nice to have a bathroom in walking distance. However, the price was a little much for a night sleeping in a tent and not having access to potable water or electricity. The appealing part is that the campground sits right above the water so it was nothing to walk down and fish for salmon.

    Valdez RV Park

    Right on the water

    Location, location, location. This campground is situated right on the water. If you are going to stay in a campground in town then you could give this one a try. It was a little more buggy than the other two parking lot ones.

    Make sure to stop at the visitor center on the way in right before the campground. There is a quick hike to a waterfall just behind it.

    Blueberry Lake State Recreation Site

    Blueberry Heaven

    Situated beautifully up in Thompson Pass is Blueberry Lake and on that lake is Blueberry Lake State Rec Site. With 14 campsites it's small but surrounded in beauty. Site 15 is reserved for the host. This is raw camping just restrooms, firepits, and picnic tables. The whole campground is paved which is wonderful and there are two pavilions along the lake for use. Blueberries abound for picking when in season and Valdez is just a pretty drive down the road. Loved everything about this campground. Wonderfully clean bathrooms and only $25 a night.

    Valdez KOA

    Great Campground

    Great campground and will be going back the next time I am in Valdez. Buildings are kept very clean and supplies always filled. Stayed at a tent site and enjoyed being able to set up under the trees. Not a lot of noise at the site even when the kids were playing on the playground. Also an area for dogs to run around is nice.

    Eagle's Rest RV Park

    Everything You Need!

    This campground was exactly what we were looking for. It is conveniently located in town within walking distance of the grocery stores, restaurants, and harbor. Surrounded by gorgeous mountains you will wake up with beautiful views of the sunrise over the mountains. There were not many campers here when we stayed, but I think this place fills up during the tourist season and fishing season. There is also a station to clean the fish you caught. Showers are available as part of the expenses. We opted for tent camping in the green in the middle of the rv park, but they also have cabins for rent and hookups for rvs.

    Bear Paw RV Park

    Amazingly wonderful!

    It's not your typical "cozy" campground. It's more of a place to just park your rig, but with all the amenities within walking distance in every direction, it's a great jump-off place. You look up and there are majestic mountains, still with patches of snow and beautiful waterfalls from way high up, 360° surrounding you. You breathe in the fresh salty air and hear the seagulls calling out Who cares where you're parked?
