Anchorage Ship Creek RV Park

The feel

The park sits just a few blocks from the heart of downtown Anchorage, right where the locals fish on Ship Creek. The creek draws anglers, birders and spectators.

Sites are full hookup, pull-thru, and dry or tent. They are tight, and they back onto the railway tracks, so trains come through frequently. The staff live on site, and August is the busiest time of the year.
