Campground Reviews

Jun 23, 2025
I only gave it 4 stars because the playground was closed due to construction of the new one, which was kind of inconvenient with three small kids. There were other things to do, but they were really disappointed about it. We did rent one of the Pet Sites and it was the BEST! Even though our big dog could jump over the fence, not having to jump over tie outs was worth it!

Everyone was friendly and helpful and the views of the mountains are beautiful!

We enjoyed our stay here. It was a very relaxing weekend. The area was kid friendly, which was great for our toddler. We highly recommend staying here and would come back!

We enjoyed our stay. The campground is well maintained despite being dusty but they are working on improvements. Sites were a little too close. It was a great location for us to get around and not far from the townsite. The staff were very friendly and accommodating.

Quiet and comfortable camping experience. Very friendly staff. The showers and bathrooms are very clean. The showers are amazing with excellent water pressure.

Our stay was fabulous. We were greeted by Lori who was warm, inviting, friendly and very wiling to share her local knowledge. Our accommodations were very clean and well maintained. After a day of heavy rain we returned to a tiny drip. Salina came and fixed the roof. She also refilled our propane tanks at nearly midnight. On our next visit to Valdez we will surely be staying with the folks @ KOA.

Loved our stay, just what we needed after being off grid for a bit. Great place to reset, get a nice shower, do some laundry. Plus it’s on a great bike path that leads to Valdez. Would stay again and would recommend!!

Loved the location to Valdez. Our first time in a rented stationary RV. It met our needs. We would stay again

Thought I had requested a full hook up site (online reservation) and was assigned a site with W/E only. Called the office and they were quite helpful in moving us to a full hook up. Glad we stayed there instead of those cramped up sites downtown in Valdez.

We stayed 1 week at the chalet. It was clean and well stocked having everything we needed. Great location as well.

Lost a star due to the laundry. No heat in the laundry room and no where to sit while doing the laundry.

I needed to change my reservation, not once, but twice, and thankfully those changes were graciously accommodated. We were told that due to recent temperatures our cabin would be chilly, but a second electric heater would be delivered to us shortly that would remedy that situation. The heater was delivered 10 minutes later. The cabin was clean and the bed was firm and comfortable. No complaints.

Great campground with even better hosts; we’ll be staying again and already made reservations for next year!

Better than the other rv/camper spots around the area. A little expensive in my opinion.

Very nice park, just outside of Valdez. The park was quiet and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone I know coming to the area.

Very friendly and just a nice place to stay! Great views.

Yet another great stay at the Valdez KOA Journey. Still nice and quiet, and off the beaten path as compared to campgrounds in the middle of town or those packed along Dayville Road. The staff was great at accommodating us, and continue to work tirelessly at maintaining a clean campground, bathrooms, showers, etc. This campground will continue to be our "go-to" location for our Valdez visits!

It was our first time at a KOA and was really impressed- I would book again

We rented the small glamping tent. We loved this tent! It rained for about 36 hrs straight and we were high and dry. There’s a heater inside which was next level camping. Also a kuerig coffee maker & 4 pods. You can buy more at the Safeway in town. Also came with a set of bath towels for 2, 2 twin comfy beds and a sweet stuffed black bear. Jason is a gem with a quick wit and super amicable.

Customer Service Staff fantastic. Beautiful clean campgrounds. To make this KOA perfect, need to add more full hookup sites.

Wonderful, well kept, clean and friendly.

Fantastic staff who went out of their way to make sure we had what we needed!

The people operating the place were great and are maintaining to high standards but unfortunately, due to the recent rainy days the entire place has become a mud pit. Honestly three or four trucks of gravel would go a long ways in combatting mud filled trailers as well as repairing ruts in the road.

Our first two days were great, since the area around our tent wasn't crowded. The last two nights (especially the last one, when there were 3 tents, 2 cars and 5 loud children under 7 five feet away from us) were more congested. We needed to catch the 7am ferry in the morning. We normally never camp in campgrounds, but the showers and bathrooms were great and this stay suited us very well.

Lori was exceptionally helpful getting us the sites we needed and providing for our stay. Valdez KOA is the best option for your Valdez visit for silver fishing off Allison Point, halibut charter, kayaking on Glacier Lake and a Stan Stephen's Tour...it was a wonderful week. Thank you Lori and staff! We will see you again next year!

A very nice, secluded campground in the Valdez area! Many of the sites are heavily wooded, with natural barriers between neighbors that give you a great sense of privacy. The owners are extremely friendly, helpful, and customer-oriented. One of our favorite surprises was being able to rent e-bikes right at the campground! We spent the day riding the bike paths to the Solomon Gulch Fish Hatchery, enjoying lunch at the Valdez harbor, and then checking out Glacier Lake. It was an awesome way to explore Valdez on a beautiful day. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. Highly recommend Valdez KOA!

We rented a camper that is station at the KOA (the 19' Olympia) and it was great for our family of four (2 under 3 years old). It had basic kitchen tools so we could cook our breakfast sausages and make tea. The beds were very comfortable and we were able to keep the camper a comfortable temperature. It had a bathroom or we walked to the campground bathrooms (both in great and clean condition). The camper was in a great spot within the KOA and our kids loved playing in the playground area as well as the sausage and pancake breakfast. Just outside of town and next to the bike path- its a perfect location that doesn't feel to crowded. Overall a great experience- we will be back again!
