This campground offers a beautiful location along Turnagain Arm, making it a popular choice for campers looking to explore the area between Anchorage and Girdwood. Reviewers appreciate the clean and spacious sites, as well as the nearby nature trails and opportunities for wildlife viewing. However, some have noted that road noise from the busy highway can be disruptive, and only half of the sites accommodate larger RVs.
