Creek is fishable. It was a little muddy for us as they had flooding this spring.

Great RV campground. Owners are very helpful, personable and love their area. Always improving , affordable and quiet. We had a great time here at this park. We weren't on top of each other and it wasn't overcrowded. Andy and Karen were lovely host great conversation. The grounds were well kept Andy stayed busy. Sites were nicely spaced out very level. Each site had a table and a fire pit.. Experienced no problem with power or water. Bath houses were gorgeous. The overall value was great with free wifi and hot, clean showers. There is also laundry and firewood available for a good price as well. We stopped into the tavern for some pizza, chili, and beers. It had a community feel to it and we were able to meet and talk to a lot of great people. 100% recommend staying here. Owners live here, so they take great pride in the campground

If you are going to Alaska to experience Alaska this is the RV park to go to, The lodge is a historical roadhouse that has been preserved with all its beauty. Full of rich history of sled dog teams and men who started no where with nothing. The campground itself is a place of beauty. Everything you would think Alaska is. The extremely short summers bring a bounty of fish to the creek, that you can sit and listen to all day,
just simply relaxing. The power to the sites is excellent , wifi is excellent (yes here in no where AK) had no issues with water, my site was full hook up, but they have many other options. Stay a few days enjoy the creek, unhook and take a day trip to Valdez, or McCarthy. Have dinner at the lodge. Really recommend this park. Looks small from the road, but the park extends along the creek.

Bathroom and showers in Creekside area is new and kept spotless.

Enjoyed my time at Ranch House Lodge. Friendly owners on site regale you with the history of the + 100 year old roadhouse. Creekside sites near the rushing waters lull you to sleep. Would definitely stay again.

One of the first guests of their season, and I am thrilled at the time I had here. The roadhouse is a step back in time. Preserved to the history, it is authentic hand peeled logs, it feels like home the moment you step inside. The creek (as large as any river I've seen) is running fast and was amazing to sit and watch. The owner took the time to take me on a short walk, and to the surprise of both of us... two nearly just born baby moose in the path We backed out of there ... slow and quiet... AMAZING this is Alaska. Our site was on the creek and just a peaceful unbelievable experience.

This is a great campground. The sites are laid out around the creek. The sites are level and spotless. The owners Karen & Andy are very welcoming. Prices in the tavern are reasonable and the chili is excellent. Ask Karen for some of the history of the roadhouse. 5/5 stars.

Something that never happens in Alaska. Premium site overlooking the creek. All the sites seem to be large and level, a big rig friendly park. Full hook ups 50/30/20 options. The lodge itself is charming. Have the chili, try some of the hot sauces from the table of pain. Our whole stay was an enjoyable Alaskan Experience.

Beautiful surprise. Didn't know what to expect, but open the door to the lodge and step back into the days of a roadhouse. All hand carved and polished. Sat at bar, had a great time. Owners are very entertaining. Bathrooms are better than I've seen anywhere in Alaska. Sites are large and level. All full hookup. Our spot was on the creek, had picnic table and fire ring. There is grayling and trout in the creek, but water high not able to catch anything. This is a must stop. Even with limitations because of Covid 19 we had a great time. You might think because on the Glenn you would hear alot street noise, nope on the creek just heard the creek, and of course where else can you have a beer at a roadhouse!
