We have traveled in RV around Alaska for a few months and stayed on many RV campgrounds.
Baycrest KOA is by far the best one!
Staff is very friendly, grounds as well as bathrooms a laundry are SPOTLESS! And the views are out of this world! I would highly recommend to stay there.

This is such a great KOA. The staff is amazing, the campground is amazing, the bathrooms have heated floors and are very clean, showers are great, laundry room is huge with plenty of washers and dryers ($4.00 to wash and $3.00 to dry), and the view is fantastic. We had a back in patio site on the bay. Our site came with a BBQ, table and chairs and a firepit on a concrete pad. Wifi was really good. I wish our schedule allowed us to stay longer. We stayed 3 nights. It was quiet even though the campground sites along the main highway. There is a nice playground. They have plenty of tent sites as well as a cabin and some bunkhouses. If you are heading to Homer, this is the place to stay. Thanks for a fantastic memory.

This is a very very nice KOA. Up on top of a cliff overlooking the water just a few miles north of Homer. I stayed in the bunkhouse that sleeps 8. It is conveniently right next to the bathrooms. The shower facilities are first class and are possibly the best showers I have seen at any KOA.

Homer/Baycrest KOA is hands-down the best KOA we have ever stayed. If you have a trailer with a big window, spend the extra and book a patio site on the bluff. Site #9 has the best view but all of the sites on the bluff are fantastic! We stayed at the end of May through the beginning of June. Watching the bald eagles fly past our camper and over the bluff was amazing! A few eagles were only a few feet away from the camper! Watching the sunrises and sunsets on the mountains across Kachemak Bay was breathtaking. The campsite is a short drive to Homer and the Spit but far enough away to get away from the noise. We did not use the facilities, so I cannot say anything about the restrooms or laundry. Wi-Fi was okay. Finally, every staff member we encountered was kind and friendly. Every single one. The next time we come to Alaska, Site #9 at the Homer/Baycrest KOA will be one of our stops.

Very clean koa with the right amenities. Great location for those not wanting to busy tourist feel of Homer or the spit. Wind is also low because its location. Spots are a bit tight together. 13-15 are the best locations with an amazing view. You get the most space and with full hookups too.
