Campground Reviews

The sites are VERY close together. There is a small swath of grass about 6 feet wide, makes it nearly impossible to put chairs out. Several areas needed the grass mowed. Pam was great at check in. Other staff not very personable.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We appreciate your feedback. Our sites are all between 25ft and 28ft wide between pedestals. If you need additional space, we have premium sites with more space to spread out. If you are in a site for a longer period and prefer to have it mowed during your stay, let us know and will take care of it.

Sites are a little close. The water was brown and had air in it, not good

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us for almost 2 weeks. We wish you had brought this to our attention during your stay. Our water is tested regularly in a lab, with no health issue. It however has high iron content and we have to inject air to oxidize it and filter it. Some air remains in the water.

We found everything well organized and clean. The office help was friendly and very helpful. We like the location, on the River and close to Fairbanks. However it would be nice to be able to access the River for kayak launch or swimming. We would gladly stay here again and would tell our friends and family to stay as well. Thank you.

Terrain un peu étroit mais un magnifique emplacement pour Billings

Amenities were great and well worth the price What we don’t understand is why you would prohibit sleeping in the car. We set up our SUV for sleeping (like many people do these days) since it feels more secure to us and it protects better from the elements. This is the first campground that posed this restriction. Also for a tent site it was a bit crowded.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Like many other KOA's, we can't allow car camping and car is not an equipment option when you make your reservation. You will either need a tent, an RV or roof-top tent. Camping conversion vans are fine also. If you are not sure, please call ahead prior making your reservation.

How cool is it to say you stayed at North Pole Alaska. Sites are close but campground is quiet. Clean shower and restrooms. Great registration staff. Free rv wash station too.
Jul 24, 2023
That was one of the best campgrounds I've stay at since I've been RVing for the late 10 years.

Clean, comfortable, mosquitos were not a problem. Some road noise during the day but nights were fine.

You were the first KoA we visited in Alaska. We were so happy with the staff, laundry facilities, deck by the river and 50 amp service! Thank you for a great stay!!

We stayed 4 night and it rained part of the time but that was ok, we liked the spot we were at with the exception of the ground right outside our door being unlevel. The staff was great and very friendly, laundry room was really nice and clean. It was a nice place to stay and we would stay again next time.

Beautiful park. Staff was helpful and friendly. Definitely will return if ever in the Fairbanks area again.

Very nice place to stay. Clean and relaxing.

They put us in a very tight and small spot for our 28’ RV and pickup truck even though we gave them all the information on the app since we are KOA members.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry that the 38ft long site that was booked online wasn't the right fit for you. After arrival and on the 2nd day we contact each guest to inquire if all is ok. Anytime, please let us know if you are not happy with the site and we will gladly see if we can find a different site for you.
Jul 20, 2023
Enjoyed the stay. Would stay there again if ever back in Fairbanks!

Very quite, staff very helpful.

Loved the campground, spaces were roomy and amenities were terrific! The campground was very clean and there were few mosquitos which is rare for Alaska. I was taken aback by the multiple requests for tips from one of the staff.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us and getting back to my inquiry for more details. It appears this was a misunderstand and "tips" may have been mentionnend in a different context. Our staff does not ask for tips - if they are given tips, they donate it to the carecamps organization. www.carecamps.org.

Very nice park. Space was not perfect as there was a tree right next to my trailer. Kept me from using the awning.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are happy you had an enjoyable stay. The tree at site 36 you stayed is on the passenger side and awnings and entrance door are usually on driver side. So I am not sure why you weren't able to use your awning. Please let us know of these issues during your stay so we can look into it. Thank you .

Clean, quite and friendly. Excellent bathroom facilities. Excellent experience.

Good facilities, great showers, nice laundry. Campsite we were in 74 has d a trench between sights near rear and should be filled in to level. High iron content in laundry stained whites yellow. It may help to have a sign saying that uses bleach results in stains due to iron content. ( instructions say no bleach but no explanation why.)

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for letting us know about the small dip in the gravel. Guest services / maintenance filled that spot and leveled it out again. Hopefully you can visit us again in the near future. Safe travels.

The Street is very noisy. The sides are very straight. The river and the zone around we liked. The staff very friendly and professional.

Sites are quite close together. Overall it was quiet. If you’re not toward the end sites, the showers and bathrooms are a bit of a walk. The registration hosts were very friendly and helpful. Some tow vehicles were parked encroaching the drive path/road.

Location and staff were excellent.

Quiet and peaceful. Plenty of space between RVs. Very friendly staff. Laundry facilities were clean and well maintained. Really appreciate the rv cleaning station. I just wish I knew about the wash facility when I was checking in.
Jul 15, 2023
We had a great time. The KOA in Fairbanks provided us with a convenient base to come back to after sightseeing around Fairbanks all day. The free car/RV wash was greatly appreciated!! Staff was very professional and knowledgeable. Thanks for everything!

Its a nice and clean Place with absolutly frienly Personal . Top !

Staff were excellent and overall facilities are good. My dogs really liked camp K9. The only issue I had was I had paid for a spot with extra room but spot 109 has a telephone pole support wire in the ground next to the spot which prevented deployment of my awning. I recommend this spot not be considered “extra room”.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. There is a well marked wire from that pole, which may make it necessary to adjust placement of the RV to fully extend the awning. We marked it as extra space since there is a much larger grass area than most other sites. But will gladly reevaluate for 2024 season.

Friendly and welcoming staff, easy to maneuver to our site. Nice dog park and great place to relax along the river on a deck or swing. After the rough drive from Yukon Territory, we were glad to have a place where we could wash the road grime and mud off our unit and truck. Nice location for getting to Fairbanks or Chena Recreation area.

I stayed 3 days while having repairs done on my towed. It is conveniently located to all the points of interest in the area. The park is very clean and neat, with excellent staff.

Great friendly RV park. Easy parking with pull through and back in full hookups. Staff was great, sites were well maintained. We are local but we still like to get away for a few days. Stayed here many times and will continue to return for the occasional weekend.

Campground is good. It has cleans showers and a clean laundry room with plenty of washers and dryers. The only reason I did not give it a 5 for service, is that I thought the owner could have made a little more effort in accommodating us. We were staying 2 nights. We were traveling in 3 separate RVs, and thus made 3 different reservations. It was the start of the season so the campground was not sold out. It was going to be a whole ordeal for her to put us close together, so we were spread out throughout the camp, despite there being plenty of open sites throughout.
