What Guests Are Saying

Quartz Creek Campground is highly praised for its beautiful location, cleanliness, and well-maintained facilities. Many reviewers appreciate the spacious sites, friendly camp hosts, and access to Kenai Lake and nearby activities. However, there are concerns about the reservation system being too restrictive, making it difficult for locals to secure last-minute spots, as many reserved sites often remain empty.

Booked this double site (30) and was happy with its amount of both shade and sun (for solar panels). Site was very level for the RV asks our tent campers in the group had no complaints. Camp hosts are unobtrusive and do a great job keeping this campground clean and orderly. Bathrooms nearby were fully plumbed, which is nice.

The sites are well spaced, level, and quite clean. The camp host seems on top of scheduling with reservations.

It was great except for the two teenage kids riding their four wheeler up and down the beach where everyone was trying to get some relax time sunbathing and kayaking. Rather annoying they were. But other than that it was great.

We where in spot #11 which Was nice. Walked to the water front. Met a lot of people, relaxed, cooked out, drove over to the crescent Campground, saw a spruce hen and her little ones about six. Just enjoyed life. The camp host Jerry was a really nice guy and Host. Anything you needed to know he could direct you.

Nice lakeside site. I used it as a base camp for day trips to Seward (and one to Homer). Being able to lock up and leave my camp trailer for the day made the day trips s lot easier. (If you’re towing something forget visiting Homer Spit… you can’t park your trailer.)

Also there’s a nice little brewpub about 1/2 mile away if you’re wanting a quick beer and/or some bar food.

What a beautiful setting! We spent 3 nights at Quartz Creek and wish we had time to stay longer. It is located near some excellent fly-fishing spots and is remarkably quiet. The sites are nicely sized, and we had no issues getting our 38’ DP and Jeep in the site. The dump station is clean, easily accessible, and features potable water.

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.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

Wildlife & food storage

  • Store all food securely to prevent bear encounters.

Local regulations

  • Season dates are subject to change based on weather conditions.
