King Mountain

Clean, close to the highway, and a great night stay! Pretty level site was a bonus. Boondocking for the night.

Fantastic Hidden Gem!

We stayed here for the night on our way from Anchorage to Valdez w a whitewater rafting trip just up the road in Glacier View. Perfect choice! It was 20 mins away from NovaAlaska adventures in Glacier View and had a really nice river and little walking area (for kids and dogs). It’s bear heavy as most places are in AK but the host was nice and there to greet us. It was a Saturday evening and there were still quite a few sites open. Would definitely stop here again!

Quiet place with amazing views

This is a very nice and quiet campground with amazing views. This is a pretty primitive campground, so don’t expect much for amenities. Our 24’ trailer could have fit most sites without a problem, but bigger rigs would definitely have a harder time finding a spot. No hookups available and no cell service.
