Our
campground is in the beautiful Susitna Valley, conveniently located just two
hours north of Anchorage at Mile 96.5 on the Parks Highway. (On a map, the area
is located midway between Willow and Talkeetna, about 50 miles north of
Wasilla.) The campground is on Montana Creek, which is an excellent fishing
stream, where grayling, rainbow trout, Dolly Varden, and king, silver, and pink
(in even-numbered years) salmon are caught. A short walk along one of several
trails leads to the mouth of the creek and the Susitna River. Our campground has
picnic tables, toilets, fire pits, barbeque grills, and our convenience store,
the “Tackle Cache”. The store sells firewood, snacks, fishing gear, tackle
and licenses, groceries, ice, used and new books, and RV and camping supplies and also
rents fishing equipment. Some of our sites feature electric hookups.
We have several pull-throughs and many extra-long sites.
We have several flower gardens, and there are grassy areas that are
especially popular with tent campers. All sites are beautifully treed and it is
not unusual to see the bald eagles that frequent the property and fish in the
stream. The
campgrounds are conveniently located within three miles of cafes, grocery
stores, Laundromat, showers, church, gasoline, mechanical parts, and repairs. In
addition, you'll be close to the recreational activities that the Susitna Valley
is known for: flight seeing Mt. McKinley, river boating, rafting, and dog
mushing. Take a day trip and visit the historical gold-mining town of Talkeetna.
As you can tell, after you catch your limit of fish, there'll still be plenty to
see and do! Depending upon the snowmelt, our campground opens the second week in May and, depending upon the weather, remains open until late September. We think you'll appreciate our reputation for friendliness and for maintaining clean properties. (Our motto is "Cleanliness and Friendliness!") Every year we make improvements. Reservations can be made by calling 1-877-475-2267 and prepaying by credit card. We're
looking forward to seeing you this summer! Have a GREAT summer of c
