    Homer Spit Campground - The Spit

    Homer Spit Campground is close to the end of the road on the spit, not far from the touristy hustle…read moreand bustle. A few friends and I got two adjoining beachfront tent sites here last weekend. Pros: The beachfront sites are as they say - on the beach front. Fresh ocean air, a beautiful view, a beach full of seashells... There are restrooms with running water and soap available at the campground, as well as shower rooms (prepay $1.00 at the office per shower). Homer Spit Campground is within short walking distance from your pick of places to sign up for tours, eat, drink, shop, etc. Cons: The campgrounds are small enough that even when attempting to stay in your own spot, it's difficult to prevent overlapping with other campers. Prices were higher than other spots - $35.00 +tax for a tent site with no electric/water, with a two-night minimum and deposit of one night paid up front. Overall, we are glad we chose Homer Spit Campground. Between the view, ease of check-in, proximity to the Spit's activities, and campground amenities, I felt it was well worth the price. The one thing I would recommend: go earlier in the year. The wind and rain was a bit much for me in a tent. Also, if you would rather die than see other people during your camping trip, don't camp anywhere on the Spit. It stays PACKED.

    We booked a site w/o water and/or power (aka tent site) and provided accurate vehicle information…read more(RV 25ft). When checking-in we were told that the site wouldn't be suitable for an RV. The neighboring similar sites were occupied by RV's & Campervans. We did perfectly fit into the site. They didn't check us in and only refunded the money and the employee & supervisor acted extremely rude, admitted a fault in the booking system but didn't make any accommodation or exception.

    I tried to book a couple of days at our usual spot in Homer this past weekend, to no avail. In fact…read moremost places were full. I prefer to have a full hookup site, as I have a CPAP machine, and plugging into electrical is preferable. I found 1 spot at Ocean Shore, and we'd never stayed there before so I wasn't sure what to expect. The price is thereabouts the same as where we normally stay, and with all the same sort of facilities, laundry, showers, bathrooms etc. on the map of available spots, there was only 1 remaining, and by my reckoning, it appeared to be in a somewhat desirable location within the park. By that I mean that there are some sites very close to the beach walk, and with a sea view directly out of the window, and not a view of the RV parked next to you. I had managed to score site 64, which had no other sites to one side of us - meaning we had a lovely sea view. Initially I thought there was something wrong, and that when we arrived, the camp host would tell me there'd been an error with the booking software. But such was not the case, we really did have an excellent site, with a perfect view, and very close to the beach walk. However if your objective is to be close to the showers, laundry, coffee shop etc, this is not the best one. I don't know how many times I've driven past this place on the main road in Homer. I really didn't know how nice it was. The camp host literally got in her car and drove us to our site, and she then marshalled my husband into the spot perfectly. And the sites are nicely leveled out too. The trash dumpster is very close to this site, as is the doggy doo bag station. Something I noticed at this place, is that all the occupants were very friendly. I don't see that too much in other places here. Our neighbours informed us that we were now blocking their lovely sea view (jokingly) and also, that someone must have canceled, for us to have gotten the "best spot" which I have to agree with. The internet here is superb. I'm not kidding, it's better than ours at home. Streaming media with no interruptions or buffering. This is the best internet I've ever experienced in any RV park. And it's free. Denali Rainbow Village gives you half an hour free, and then you have to pay, and it's more expensive up there than it is here, without the beautiful sea view., because you get an Alaska Resident discount down here. I was told also by our neighbours that it's usually difficult to get a spot here, because people book a year in advance. So I know what I have to do if I want to stay here next year. Really nice park with great facilities, helpful staff, and I hope to stay again

    $5 daily car parking, $15 daily camping sites, $15 daily boat trailer parking sites, fishing access…read moreis free, assuming you have a license. Not really impressed with this particular location, although we didn't fish, so I don't know if the "catching" is good at this location. There's access to the river bank for fishing, which is why people go here. Bathrooms are clean. The vistas here aren't terribly impressive. Campsites are merely functional and nor very attractive. It's definitely geared toward RVers who are there to fish. Frankly the sites are ugly, very open and exposed. I observed a number of vacancies despite it being the beginning of fishing season which I think speaks to the overall quality of this location- dusty and desolate.

    Jenn and I headed down to Kenai/Soldotna for the annual Dip Net thing, with our trailer and dogs…read moreattached..problem was we could not find an empty campsite...can you believe that? No sites in Alaska...aww God bless the tourists that rent RV's...) anyrate we followed some signs to Morgans Landing Site, and much to our surprise sites were available! We choose a very nice and secluded one, surrounded by trees, and brush...complete privacy...what was really cool was there were Bald Eagles visible, along with Moose everywhere..we soon why the tourists did not flock here...Bears...90% of the occupied park were Alaskans who knew what to do and not to do...the tourists went screaming on their way..as a few actually tried to feed them...Jeeez how dumb..anyway..we stayed 5 days as allotted, and it was beautiful...the kenai was 1/4 of a mile away, the wildlife..and us in our trailer...the campsite is very much worth visiting...just beautiful...
