I have a lot to say about this campground, but I just want to write a quick review for the time…read morebeing. Porcupine Campground in Hope is my favorite, but Trail River is a very close second. It has all the things I love - outstanding views of the mountains; tons of trees; relatively private, large sites that can accommodate RV's; not one but two impressive bodies of water; plenty of places to explore and NO CELL SERVICE. The campground is in the middle of nowhere (Crown Point, which essentially doesn't exist since it doesn't have a zip code.) It's at mile 24.2 of the Seward Highway, about halfway between Moose Pass and Seward. GPS coordinates are GPS Info. (Latitude, Longitude): 60.41472, -149.38028 60°24'53"N, 149°22'49"W This is a huge campground with about 80 sites on 3 loops. But even so, reservations on summer weekends are pretty much a necessity. Sites are $18 a day. Make reservations here: https://www.recreation.gov/camping/trail-river/r/campgroundDetails.do?contractCode=NRSO&parkId=70678 The best campsites are on Kenai Lake (see my close up shots of the map), almost all of which are tent-only sites. Only 2 RV sites are on Kenai Lake, #72 and 70. 73 is also near the lake. Ironically, none of the campsites are on the Trail River. You have to drive, bike or walk down the Trail River access road a little ways to view the MAGNIFICENT river, which is in my opinion, more beautiful than the Kenai and Russian Rivers. The plants here are really interesting. And I heard more bird song than I've heard anywhere else I've camped. I awoke every morning to the most beautiful sounds. Really I want to write so much more about how awesome Trail River is, but I'm tired from camping. LOL If you have any questions, PM me.

We drove by two others and found Trail River Campground, found a spot that wasn't reserved, and set up camp. It was spacious and clean with all things ready--fire pit, table, and tent space. For a last-minute camp trip, it worked out great, and we had fun. We would visit again and recommend to others.

It's also very close to the airport, making it an ideal last stop before flying home. And it's dog friendly! The folks running it were super nice and accommodating to us asking to be moved from our original spot (slightly creepy camper next door) and they keep the facilities really clean. No views, no fires, nothing fancy - but an efficient spot for a clean up and a decent nights sleep.

That being said, we still had the opportunity to stop by here while visiting Katmai National Park. Located in the main area of the park in Brooks Camp, Brooks Lodge also offers meals for anyone visiting the park. We came for lunch, and if I recall, it was $32/person for full access to the buffet bar. They had salad, soup, crab cakes, and a burger bar among other things. The food was actually really good. I was expecting just average food considering it was buffet style, but the flavor was great. Staff managed the bar well, routinely switching out trays to ensure everything stayed appropriate temperature. There was also a comfortable sitting area around the fire pit along with a small bar. Clean bathrooms, always a positive. If you can book a room here, enjoy your stay. Otherwise, stop by for lunch. The food is tasty.

We also saw puffins, orcas, bears, sea lions, and so much more. We stayed in quaint little cabins next to the water. At every turn, I was in awe of what I was seeing and doing. Best of all, Get Up & Go did ALL THE WORK! The entire trip was perfectly planned and executed. And our guide, Ray -- holy cow! He was so genuine and kind and knowledgable. He took the time to get to know us as individuals and treated us like family -- intuitively picking up on each of our unique needs and preferences. He made us great meals, taught us a ton about Alaska, and kept us all on track. I seriously cannot imagine a better guide!!!
