Very clean. Easy to park. Close to fishing. Only down side is no dump station

Great campground and have stayed many times. The improvements over the years keep us coming back. The only complaint is how hard it is to get a spot there now. Im having to log in in January to hopefully get a spot in June.

Good for a couple of nights

Beautiful area and setting. However, bathrooms were a bit smelly for my female relative.

Stayed at site nr. 15 with direct access to beautiful Cooper Creek. Site was clean, nice big table! Would reserve again. Only inconvenience: neighbours from across left all their dogs in the rv while they were out fishing. They barked nonstop. But that was not the fault of the campground ;-).
@KatrinaP311712 · Camped on Jul 19, 2023 at Campsite #8
Beautiful campsites. Great location. Cant wait to camp here again.
@RobertaB237004 · Camped on Jul 9, 2023 at Campsite #17
We appreciated the clean campsite and clean restrooms. For the most part the campground was quiet and pleasant - thank you!
@JillianV322E76 · Camped on Jul 1, 2023 at Campsite #16
Good location but sites are not very private and noise carries easily throughout the entire campground. It was very loud and hard to sleep with no one enforcing quiet hours
@rhondaaB9C7454 · Camped on Jun 30, 2023 at Campsite #7
Sites are very snug but the location is great!!
@LeeL2710813 · Camped on Jun 25, 2023 at Campsite #15
Great camp
Very different feel since all the trees were cleared but not a negative
Our favorite

Nice camp, large flat tent places, metal grill, nearby river, clean toilet, trash container, restaurant near by. Recommended.

Campground was OK nothing great. Was there 6 nights never met campground host.
@BarbaraT607139 · Camped on Jun 14, 2023 at Campsite #21
We love the campground have stayed here many times. Always nice and quiet. Camp host were very helpful this trip
@RichardH338463 · Camped on Jun 12, 2023 at Campsite #18
Nice campground. Short drive to the Russian River Ferry for fishing.
@FredM6101334 · Camped on Jun 10, 2023 at Campsite #5
Please remove the rocks from campsite #6; they make it much more difficult to park one's RV properly. The water pump was not functioning at all; we had to obtain water from elsewhere.
@GordonC6729752 · Camped on Jun 10, 2023 at Campsite #7
Restrooms were well stocked and clean. A lot of the trees have been cut down due to the beetles.
@MartaM9588475 · Camped on May 26, 2023 at Campsite #4
The camp hosts were very nice and walked through the camp regularly. The outhouse was clean and toilet paper was restocked daily. USDS FS remediation of beetle-killed trees was stark, but the campground feels safe now.
@BarbaraT607139 · Camped on Aug 17, 2022 at Campsite #14
Our reserved site was overgrown and not even. We ended up finding another site that was good. The host was very supportive. I find that except for Denali and Chittina it doesn’t make sense in Alaska to reserve sites.
@FredM6101334 · Camped on Jul 24, 2022 at Campsite #6
Campsite #6 has some large boulders planted in the driveway to the site. They really interfere with parking, and they should be removed!
@RonenL7008213 · Camped on Jul 22, 2022 at Campsite #7
Great place
@JudithW4250782 · Camped on Jul 10, 2022 at Campsite #21
#21 was a very large great site! You could hear the river. Campground host was very friendly and helpful. Cooper Creek Brewery was a fun place with a good menu.
@VanessaK241335 · Camped on Jul 6, 2022 at Campsite #15
Great sites with vegetation between them. Quiet campground. Close to lots of activities.
@NicoleE1864413 · Camped on Jul 4, 2022 at Campsite #5
The camp host was wonderful and kept the grounds clean, was present for questions and created a welcoming environment. The sites were ready and exactly as expected
@KarinE4352431 · Camped on Jun 29, 2022 at Campsite #2
Great campsite
@KelciG9827427 · Camped on Jun 25, 2022 at Campsite #10
Such a nice campground right across from the Kenai River, and so close to the Russian River as well. Our spot was huge and really felt like we had a good amount of privacy next to our neighbors. Would definitely camp here again!

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
