After a long drive from anchorage we arrived at Mckinley RV park having paid for a site with electricity and water that the water had been turned off a couple days before. No notification at all, prior notification would have given us the chance to pack enough water for the trip. After filling up what water jugs we had we... More

40.00 a night (tax included) I expected 5 star accommodation's. The bathrooms located on the ground level with the RV's and tents are of filth, dirt, blood, garbage and disgust, so your alternative is to access one of two ways up a hill of 150 feet, to the "clean" bathrooms and laundry. Cement stairs with no railing, or wooden stairs... More

After a really exhausting biketrip we finally arrived at McKinley RV-Park. really disappointing, extrem wrecked and dirty restrooms in the camp area, no real tent spots, just dusty area underneath trees, no waterspot for tenters, employees friendly but definitely uninterested in their guests and in what their campground is looking like!

Like many others, I booked our stay at McKinley RV based on their advertisements and favorable reviews. Unfortunately, they do not live up to their self proclaimed "arguably the best RV park in Denali" by a long shot. When booking, I was assured we were being placed in a beautiful scenic site. When we pulled up to said site (#7)... More

This was a great place to stay. I liked that there was a fully stocked little grocery right on property, lots of nice laundry machines, and a convenient shuttle bus to the Denali Park Wilderness Access Center and the "Canyon" area so we didn't have to drive our big rig around town. Just be sure to get a shuttle schedule... More

We booked this campground based on its location close to the Denali Park and provides full hook-up including free wi-fi. When we found out we need to pay for the showers, we wanted to inspect the place first... the showers looked awfull so we decided to shower in the RV. It seemed that also the wi-fi did not provide a... More

And we thaught that we had seen and experienced everything... This place is a disgrace and I really don't understand how people can describe the opposite. Please be honest and don't just write a story. May be not all of ya have been to the showers? And what ab. $3 to take one, if it works, can close, or the... More

Finally an RV Park in Alaska thats not a gravel pit on the side of the highway. The park is located behind their grocery store down the hill. It's wooded and quite. They have a shuttle that takes you to the National Park for $1 each way. We walked to The 49th State Brewing Co which had great food and... More

We stayed at the Park a week ago and loved it. The staff was friendly and the park was clean. We stayed at a full hook up site.

We booked 5 nights here in July based on their ads and website and the limited reviews we could find. What a huge mistake! Only stayed one night and here is why: To start with the tent sites are tiny, we had other campers right on top of us. The tent sites are right next to a road and a... More
