Porcupine is one of our favorite Alaskan campgrounds for many reasons. This year was no exception. The hosts did a fantastic job of keeping the bathrooms immaculate and well stocked. The views of the water are so lovely and the access to the trails are just awesome. Huge sites as well. Every year there are bear scares here which is always creepy, so being "bear aware" and prepared is crucial. Great experience.

We had a short but very nice stay at Porcupine Camp. The host was pleasant and helpfull, the weather was good, and the access to the camp is a nice drive in the woods. Views across Turnagain sound are limited, but we took a walk and got some good pictures.

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
