Kitwanga River RV Campground is set against the Skeena Mountains. The views are amazing. There is nothing better than to wake up with a mountain before you.
We made our reservations by phone, and check-in was quick and easy. We were in a pull-through site with full services, all of which worked as expected. We had plenty of room to back-in. The WiFi was surprisingly good. There are bathrooms, showers, a laundry, and a dump station, which we did not use. The camp is clean and orderly. The park is just off the Cassiar Highway near the town of Kitwanga, where there is a general store. Five miles south is a gas station and convenience store where you can fill up, get supplies, and get information.
Our site was pretty level, firm gravel base, with nice sized grass patches between spaces. We did not feel crowded. Trash barrels were placed every 8-10 sites. We had a picnic table and a fire pit. It seemed a little steep, but there are not a lot of options around here,, so we were glad to get it.
The only possible downside is that a lumber mill is located next door and there is another one less than a kilometer down. However, we did not experience any problems with noise or traffic here, and we were there during the work week.

About half the spots are transient, half permanent residents. Fills up at 5, empties at 8 with everyone going to and from Alaska. Long level pull throughs, gravel/grass. Pleasant checkin, after the Alaska road trippers left it was quiet.

New name is Kitwanga River RV Park, price includes tax, firewood was complimentary as is WiFi. Owner Scott is super friendly, very helpful and is working hard to continually improve the property. As noted previously, WiFi range is limited to immediate area around the office, we are on the edge of coverage at site 7, but it's fast if you can get a signal. No cellular coverage for Rogers network.
Bathrooms are very clean and WARM, shower fee is $1 for 2.5 minutes. Laundry was also nice and clean, $3 each washer/dryer which runs for 45mins.
It's still pretty quiet here on 15-May, so it feels really spacious, since we don't have anyone on either side of us. Pull through sites are close, but plenty of room for awnings and slide-outs. There are sites at the back on a hill that are 20Amp with water, a little cheaper and not quite so close to each other. Stunning views of Seven Sisters at Pull-thru sites and Kitwanga Peak on the back hill.
Be sure to check out the Totem poles on Bridge Street and the Gitwangak Battle Hill National Historic Site just up the road to learn more about the local First Nation band.
Not sure why a previous reviewer thought the area was sketchy, it's certainly doesn't feel that way to us. Perhaps they aren't used to seeing the long-term impact the white man has had on First Nation villages.

Had to back out of our pull thru site because road was tight and narrow and there were 3’ stumps of trees left on either side of site at the end. Owner was nice but area around park was sketchy and creepy.

The area is beautiful.
Check in was easy, our reservation was just hand written on a calendar.

Very well kept campground. Laundry available ($3.00 for each wash and dry). Very quiet.. There is a short hicking trail. Full hook-ups or water & electric. There is a dump station.
For data use we used googlefi. We were able to stream with that.

New management who are doing a good job, very friendly and helpful. Location is clean, level with grass between sites.
Power and water was good, while wifi in the outer areas was poor. They are working with the telco to get this corrected.
Decent.

There is nothing stellar about this park but nothing bad so I don’t know where to rate it. If you are looking for resort, this isn’t it. If you are afraid of permanent residents, there are none here. If WiFi is important, it is only in the office vicinity at this time. Otherwise the park is level, the sites are gravel and grass and mostly level. They seem to have a bump in the middle so you want to park in the spot that is most level for your RV. Bathrooms look clean, laundry room looks great. Power post are mostly rusty looking but have good voltage.
