Rate is for a FHU 50 amp back-in site facing the bay. Nice park, all gravel with some of the inevitable Alaskan potholes, but with room to maneuver and to extend your awning. Within easy walking distance of the harbor and shopping. Excellent high speed Wi-Fi, not at all what the previous reviewer experienced. Not one of the parks where the caravans stay, so not too much in and out traffic. Friendly, medium sized park, and we would definitely stay here again if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The staff was not very friendly and short with people if questions are being asked. They advertise WiFi but the signal is very poor and you get timed out all the time. The sites were narrow and felt as if they are stacked right on top of one another. Every time we dealt with office staff they were impersonal to us but yet if an "old-timer" came in they went out of way to help and ignored us. The only time they would help us was if wanted to spend money on an item i.e. ice. The one thing that was good was location was excellent. So if you are willing to put up with unfriendly people for convenience this would be your spot to stay. If the office staff would act as if they enjoyed life and treated you decent then please stay here. Also if planning on using internet at all stick with your iphone or blackberry as WiFi is useless (don't expect what they advertise). We camped here in a Truck Camper.

Sites are very close together. Bathrooms are clean. People are friendly. It is also close to town. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

This is a brand-new campground, opened Memorial Day 2009. Every campground has to start somewhere, and I think in a few years, this one may have all the kinks worked out and be a spectacular place. The location is great if you want to be far away from Valdez, as it is not within walking distance of anything. It is very close to fishing at Allison Point. It is a gravel parking lot, very few trees, no picnic tables, no fire rings. Lots of huge potholes, sites unlevel, electric service unreliable, and a stagnant pond on the grounds providing an enormous amount of insects. The sites are VERY poorly marked, and are quite narrow, not wide as the website indicates. You will be stacked on top of your neighbor. The bathrooms were rather unconventional, as they are unisex, but they were quite clean. It appears that cable service might be coming in the next few years. The staff were very nice, though, and I think this campground will get great reviews in the coming years when it gets established. I just don't think it was worth $39 a night as it stands right now... It is very weak in comparison to the campgrounds in town. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Just a big gravel parking lot, like all the parks in town, but everything worked, including the WiFi. It's a very friendly place, close to the harbor. This will be our choice in Valdez next time we come. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Stayed 2 nights here cause we loved the town. Location of RV park wonderful -- just across street from small boat harbor!! We took Stan Stephens Glacier/Wildlife cruise and that was great! Drive to/from Valdez so gorgeous!! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is the best park in Valdez. It is directly across from the Marina where most Glacier tours originate. Restaurants are just up the street and the scenery is awesome. The Wi-Fi and cable TV worked well. The staff was friendly. Owned by Dad and ran by family members. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Beutiful views of harbor. Most sites face the water. A short walk to the harbor area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a gem of a dry camping site in a spectacularly beautiful location, the Thompson Pass. When the sun comes up in the morning you are on the top of the world! This site is 25 miles north of Valdez and is a couple miles from the Worthington glacier. The campground is located next to a high alpine lake that offers grayling fishing. Three of the campsites have shelters over picnic tables. The campground has clean vault toilets. The hand pump had been removed from the well at the time of our visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Sites are tight, but everyone is friendly, lots of RV's that have been coming for years, canning and smoking salmon. Great place to stay if staying long term in Valdez.. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is right on the water. The only problem was the salmon were running and there were dead fish all over the place. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here 4 years ago, and the WiFi didn't work. They're still "working on it." I never connected. We didn't stay in a "super site" since we didn't need 50 amp, but we were so close to our neighbor, whose furnace whined and ran all night, the big sites were looking good. Instead we moved to Bear Paw, saved $2 and had working internet. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Pretty nice campground for Alaska. Enjoyed 50amp service, good water pressure, level site, cable TV and great views. Did see an Eagle!!! We are in the "caravan" section: sites a little narrow but long enough for the 40' motor home with mid-sized pickup behind and room to spare. Only complaint: wireless did not work at all. Called office last night and they said they would "reboot". Later learned it was totally down and would be until someone comes from Anchorage. A park this big, advertising free wireless, should have arrangements to keep it working. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park has been reconfigured since our last visit in 2006 - appears most sites are now pull-through. Rate reflects a "super site" - wide enough for slides and awning - barely long enough to park tow vehicle behind coach. Site was level. Wi-Fi worked well. Park was fairly quiet, considering the number of fishermen/boats, etc. that were there. Used the laundry in the Tesoro located in the same complex with the RV park - it was clean and all washers/dryers worked well. Only disappointment was no eagles spotted during the week we were there - in 2006 they were everywhere. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This RV Park is closed and no longer in business. We camped here in a Motorhome.

RV's be aware: bad electric, spotty internet; be careful. Boy, did we hit the jackpot with this one. The wife decided that being water front was worth not having full hookups. Sea Otter RV Park has only water and electric at the sites, with a dump station up front. I should have known this was going to be a bad experience by the fact that on the front door a sign reads: "Cash only, no refunds". They only have 20 amp service, but I figured we could get by, since you should never need air conditioning here. First off, we had a water front space, but they stupidly put the utilities right in front of the embankment. This means, if you want to pull in head first (in a motorhome, especially a big rig) you better bring a long power cord. Our's barely reached, and that was after I pulled as far forward as I could. At that placement, the embankment started to climb, thus my electric step wouldn't extend because it hit the ground. There's no shutoff for my step, so I had to unplug the power to the electric step motor (thankfully it was a simple snap type connector). So far just some inconveniences, but nothing I can't work with. We arrived at the park around 11am. After doing the aforementioned hookups, I was ready to do some internet. That worked fine until it started to rain; yes RAIN gave me spotty connection to their WiFi. Good for a minute, then disconnected, then so-so for a minute, then disconnected again. It also slowed down their WiFi to a crawl. I'm guessing they might be using some satellite based internet access, or they have crappy WiFi APs. Then the electric went out on me. Took out my 120 outlet tester and found that when wiggled, the tester shows "open ground." Not safe at all. I believe that's why my Surge Guard RV protector kept resetting. So now no electricity, great: no microwave, no convection oven, no TV, etc. (Yes, I realize I could have used the generator, but by then it was late and couldn't disturb the neighbors. I didn't want to put the load on my batteries via the inverter either. Remember this is a review of a "RV park" with services: I'm not boondocking but it sure feels like it.) If that wasn't enough, while cooking via the propane cooktop, the water went out: to the entire park. There was a water leak they were fixing, ETA would be fixed in 10 minutes; try more like 45 - 60 minutes, but who's counting? (It's not like I left a deposit in the toilet that I can't flush now.) So to sum it up: if you'd like to boondock on the water for $30, then stay here. Otherwise if you want reliable utilities, look elsewhere. The location may be great but they need to really upgrade the utilities at this place: I'd feel afraid to plug in again. Ratings at 10 high, to 1 low: Location gets a 10. Service rates a 2. Cleanliness, I can't comment, didn't use facilities. Value rates a 2. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed at Sea Otter RV Park for three nights. I can honestly say that they had the rudest campground staff I have ever encountered. We arrived late (around 11:00 p.m.) so the office was closed. My husband paid in the morning for three nights. We were staying in a tent and it still cost $30 per night since we were in a "waterfront" site. The only reason we stayed was because it was raining and we had already set up camp the night before. My sixteen year old son walked over to the office with my nine year old to get a cup of coffee. The woman in the office told him that he couldn't get coffee, it was for adults only. The bathroom floors and showers were filthy. There was mildew growing in the corners where the linoleum was rotting off the floor. The showers were made of painted concrete and the paint was peeling off. By the time I was done with my shower I was standing in two inches of water. Even with flip-flops on it was disgusting. To top it off, when we were taking down our camp on our third morning the lady who worked there came around and asked if we were staying another night. I told her "no, we're taking down our camp" (it was obvious). She replied "Well, check out is 11:30, if you aren't out of here by 12:00 it will cost you another $15. Do you want to pay it now? (it was 11:15). I told her no, that she could talk to my husband who was down cleaning fish. She went and told him the same thing and that if we were there any later than 12:30 it would cost another $30! My brother-in-law ended up paying her $30 even though we were only there for another half hour. It wasn't as if they had lines of people waiting for a spot, there were lots of empty spaces. Needless to say, I will never stay there again and I highly caution anyone else to either. There are several other RV Parks in Valdez that look more spacious and well taken care of. It would be hard to find a more unproffesional, unfriendly campground host either. If you want to stay on the ocean and don't care about the rest, then here's your place. Also be aware, this campground is by the port where the boats go in and out: they start very early and they don't stop. We camped here in a Tent.

Very nice campground with friendly young staff. All new electrical hookups. Showers also appear to be new. Each shower stall is private with toilet and sink, too. Firewood provided for a donation. No water hookup at site, but available at shared area near restrooms. Shared dump station. Sites with no hookups are $15 and military gets $5 discount. Rental trailers available for $45 to $55. Walking distance to glacier. Only downside was a shooting range nearby that created some unwanted noise. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
