There are several restaurants in the area and a gas station, mini-maty, liquor store and fish processing/shipping service about a mile from camp. We offer: FISH; fishing lessons, a variety of seasonal fishing charters, and our most popular FULL day "Alaskan Adventure of a Lifetime Excursion".

You'll have access on a spacious river bank to fish from camp, no need to hike anywhere. Bald eagles sit in the trees eager for the fishermen to get lucky and pose for pictures.

King For A Day CABINS - c8be

The RV was great. I arrived late there, but there was an instruction on the whiteboard. The shower was hot enough and had unlimited use, so I was satisfied. The portable water was very cold and had good taste. In the summertime, this place will be ideal for fishing king and sockeye salmon at this place as the river bank right in front of the RV park. The owner was very friendly, and I recommend tent and RV camping here.
