Local Area

First off the City Waterfront Park is made up of 10 sections spread out over about a 3/4 mile of mostly waterfront campsites. Each is a little different, some with electric, but most just dry sites. Each section has a self pay kiosk that accepts cash or credit cards. It then issues you a paper ticket. There are no reserved sites except when a caravan group is in town, which is usually 10-30 of the 99 electric sites. There is one central town (2 hole) dump station ($5). There also a number of places to fill your water tank. The 99 electric sites also have a water faucet at each site. All sites are basically gravel parking lot, except the two sections that are for tents and those include some grass and some trees for shade. Here is a short dicription of each section from north to south:

~ Harborside About 26 dry sites close to the harbor. Half waterfront, the others just behind.

~ Alice Campground 12 dry sites. Same as above

~ Marathon 49 dry sites, most waterfront

~ Obihiro Park about 50 dry sites inside a ball diamond. All gravel

~ Williams Park. 30 dry sites for tents and small RV’s under 20′. Good shade for tents, but also a hilly location for RV’s. Across the street front water.

~ Resurrection North 14 dry sites, most set back 100′ from the waterfront

~ Resurrection 60 electric sites with water. Split up into 4 rows, one row being waterfront.

~ Resurrection South 85 sites. About 20 electric & water the rest dry. Split up into 4 row with one being waterfront. There is also flush toilets here and showers (2 men, 2 women) $2 for 10 minutes.

~ Tent Area 22 large dry tent sites. Very close to waterfront.

~ Railway Ave. ( not sure what they call this one). The only one that looks out due South across Resurrection Bay. 9 dry sites right next to the Sealife Center.

~ Forest Acres is north of town and not near the water. It has 44 dry sites.

All waterfront sites are level and there are up to 45′ RV’s in the 3 large “Resurrection” sections. The sites back from the waterfront ones can have a slight slope or be level.

Each section has a dumpster and a portable toilet.

Fees are $10 for tent sites, dry sites are $20 and electric & water ones are $40. Power was good

Since there are no reservations, arriving early ( noon) one should find a site. Most people stay 1-4 days except the waterfronts RVers tend to stay the max 14 days.

The campground is about location location location. 10 minute walk to the restaurants or Sealife Center. There is a paved bike way in front of the whole bay including the waterfront campsites. Large Safeway grocery store about 1/2 mile away. Boat tours and fishing charters close by (1000′)

Ill give it 4 star only because of its waterfront location.
