Quiet, pretty secluded site. Plenty of room. River is right behind. Visitor Center is interesting.

We were there for barely 15 hours as we were passing through. The privacy and distance between campsites was great. The picnic table was new and large.
The only issue we had was finding the driveway as it was not well marked or lit. We arrived at 11pm after dark and a long drive from Denali. It was raining and frustrating that the only sign was the street number on the right side of the road. We passed it and had to circle back. Why isn’t there a sign that’s lit with the name of the campground?
