We set-up at the Mendenhall Campground for 4 nights while in Juneau. The campground is close to the community of Auke Bay and Mendenhall Valley, which has everything you need. The site was kinda clean, but included a table and food locker. We were tent camping and set-up was easy. Plenty of critters come through the campground and there are lots of options for day hikes. Can be rainy (to say the least).

Located 10 minutes from the ferry terminal and 20 minutes from downtown Juneau, it’s a great natural campground - with full services. The sites are very nice and the campground is located right on the glacial Mendenhall lake overlooking the glacier. Some sites provide direct view to the glacier. Very pretty. We had a pull-through site that was very big, but no view. The facilities were a little far and unfortunately, the showers were not working, but overall, we really enjoyed our stay for 3 nights.

Online reservations only. Fills up fast. Full service sites are $28 and E/W sites are $26. Very private sites. Well patrolled by park rangers and staff. Fairly level pads. Beautiful setting on Mendenhall lake looking across at the Glacier and Nugget Creek falls. The trails to the falls and Glacier are worth the trip.

Our proximity to Mendenhall Glacier was superb. One day we hiked to the glacier and the next day we kayaked - all directly from the campground!

Our proximity to Mendenhall Glacier was superb. One day we hiked to the glacier and the next day we kayaked - all directly from the campground! Also, the impressive Mendenhall Waterfall and Visitors Center is a short 5 minute drive. We loved this area and the campground's amenities were good. There's a variety of full-hookup sites, water/electricity sites and some with no hookups. 68 sites total plus a dump station.
