Sunshine Creek Public Access.

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Managed as a public access site outside Talkeetna, Sunshine Creek sits on a ridge with around 20 drive-in sites, several of which overlook the creek below. A hand pump provides fresh water, and pit toilets are on-site. Sites are well-spaced. Early in the season, some sites may not yet be cleared from winter, so conditions vary. An access trail leads down to the creek for fishing or kayaking, and the campground is close to town for fuel and supplies.

Untamed Wilderness Camping

This campground isn’t marked on maps. I just took a chance and went. There are about 20 sites on a ridge some overlooking the creek. There is an access trail to the creek. Pit toilets are available as well as fresh water from a hand pump. I didn’t try it. Some sites are not yet cleaned or set up from the winter I guess. The night we stayed there were just 2 others in the park. Close to Talkeetna and gas , propane etc. The sites are well spaced for privacy, especially on the ridge. Sorry I didn’t take pictures but think state park level quality for the completed sites.
