Nice campground. A little snug for larger rigs. Near the Matanuska Glacier off of the Glenn Hwy. There are vault bathrooms, picnic tables, and fire pits. No hookups. We stayed free for 3 days with our disabled veterans pass from the state of Alaska. We would stay again if in the area. We couldn't see the glacier from the fires in the area summer 2019. There’s also an overnight parking area available for $10.

I was told that 7+ years ago the glacier was right in front of the campground. These days it’s receded to about 1.5 miles up the road. The campground is fine. Nothing fancy. Definitely not worth $20. There’s also an overnight parking area available for $10. I would recommend that before the actual campground.
