Cell service is available. Firewood is sold on-site by the wheelbarrow, and staff deliver it to your site. Electric hookups are available, though RV campers should note there is no dump station. Reservations are accepted, and pets are welcome. Campers interested in camping areas around Willow or nearby water access will also find Sheep Creek Access Area a few miles north.

Clean, Great Service and Beautiful Park

From the moment you step into a clean office, the staff are very friendly and answer all my questions. They even bring the fire wood to your site. We didn’t use the park bathrooms but I did se them cleaning them frequently. Great picnic area and even has basketball courts. We got a spot right in front of the river and it was Ana amazing awakening. This is by far one of the best parks I’ve seen in Alaska and prices are super affordable. Only reason is missing a 5* is because there is no R.V. dumping station and limited electrical spots.

Worth the stop

This is a great option if you are traveling between Anchorage and Fairbanks and want to stop in between. This campground is situated right on the river and when it is clear there are good views of Denali. Behind a gate you are sure not to get only campground or boat traffic.

With an $8 WHEELBARROW of wood you are sure to keep that campfire going. There are a number of sites along the rivers edge or if you have little ones there are 26 spots far enough form the water you can ease your worries. The prices are good so if you make your way here its is worth a stay. If you are visiting go to their Facebook page and they give regular temperature/weather updates in the summer which is nice.

Cell Service: yes Internet: no 2020 Cost: $12 - $24 Distance from Anchorage: 92 miles Bug Factor (1 minimal to 10 too many to enjoy): 2-5
