Bird Creek Campground

A wonderful place to stay. We were here for three nights. We really enjoyed the bike trail that was right behind our campsite about 12 mi of a beautiful pathway with many views of the Turnagain arm. The reason for the rating of four is that the noise from the highway was a little bit rough at times.

The campground is ideally placed beside the Bird to Gird bike trail. It would be nice if it had more sites(I drove arrived Friday at 2:50 and all the sites were taken! Thankfully someone was having lunch and when they finished they left. But I was shocked that so early in a Friday the first weekend of May it was PACKED out.
It is very windy right now, I recommend wind breakers if you’re on the right side of campsites. The left side seemed better protected with the trees. The lookouts were not very clear, but that may be addressed later into the season.
The bathroom closest to the Bike trail entrance in the campground area was out of toilet paper and had no trashbag or can in the bathroom.

I would not really call this a campground. I would consider a place to park your camper and transit to your next destination. it is quiet and it's safe but it is just a parking lot in front of a hotel. There is however a campground across the street called Bird Creek which is a state run facility. The bird Creek hotel is a nice 1950s motel and we had a wonderful stay. I would highly recommend it.

I was at the overflow past Bird Creek, but it was private and quiet which i appreciate. The pay to parking nonsense requires a card and does not do cash, so be mindful of that. Otherwise, it's close to hiking and fishing spots and quiet.

This was a great campground! Very clean and tidy. Has a fire pit and access to logs. The very best part here is that there is a train track that runs between the water and the camp so you can go down and watch the trains go past against a stunning backdrop.
