Accessible via paved road about eight miles from downtown, Valdez KOA accommodates RVs up to 80 feet with full hookups alongside tent sites and cabins. The campground operates from mid-May through mid-September with rates ranging from $50 to $246 per night. Reservations are available and pets are welcome throughout the property.
Sites 38-44 sit across from a small pond and offer more privacy among the trees, according to campers. The facility runs along a paved bike trail that connects to town, though reviewers note the distance requires a vehicle for most errands and waterfall access. A playground serves families while a separate fenced area allows dogs to run off-leash. The on-site store stocks firewood and basic supplies.
"Buildings are kept very clean and supplies always filled," reports Korin G.. The bathhouse includes free hot showers and laundry facilities that accept quarters. WiFi reaches throughout the campground, and a dump station serves RV travelers. Staff members respond quickly to maintenance issues, with several reviews highlighting prompt water connection assistance.
The location provides access to Bridal Falls, Robe Lake, and Solomon Gulch hatchery for day trips. Bear sightings occur regularly in the area, particularly black bears, with occasional grizzly encounters on nearby trails. This campground works well for RV travelers wanting full services and tent campers who prioritize clean facilities over remote wilderness camping.

Since we bought the campground from it's founders our parents in 2020, we've upgraded wifi to GB Wifi, well known for fast-enough-to-stream wifi, capable of handling thousands of devices at once. We've improved the campground store, and updated the cabins with new couches, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and all new linens.

Soon we'll be adding full hookups to RV sites, and a large clubhouse with fireplaces, upper deck pavilion and event space, new guest laundry and food service area are planned. Also, we are planning a HUGE dog area, paw pen sites, giant playground, and a whole adventure camping area in the back woods with treehouse cabins and more accommodations.
