Matanuska River Park

Nice grassy spots but very very small and if you get here after everyone else it’s almost impossible to navigate getting into your spot. The camp host was super friendly and even gave us some wood. There are no fire pits, we brought our own as did some other people at other sites. If you are wanting any kind of privacy this is not the spot for you but if that doesn’t bother you, then it’s a nice spot.

Edge of town, Palmer: Good for a night

Small campground attached to park with playground, pavilion and volleyball court. RIGHT next to a cemetery. Had a dump station and water. No Mountain View’s and bustling on the weekend. Spots are close together, parking lot style but do have grass and picnic table. I don’t see any fire pits. I’d say if you need to stop for the night this would suffice.
