Alaska RV guide
Customer Rating:
This book is everything it is advertised to be and more. We are finding it to be the perfect guide for planning our upcoming Alaska trip. This was money very well spent.
What a help!
Customer Rating:
I've been to Alaska by a bus tour that included a cruise and a train ride. I am now considering driving and towing a travel trailer. I had no idea there were so many campgrounds in Alaska - wonderful news. The info about camping in national parks is especially helpful, as I have a Golden Age Passport.
Alaskan Camping with RV or Tent

This book is so very good that after reading it I feel like I have been there already. It seems to be very complete.
Don't RV without it.
Customer Rating:
This is a very detailed book that gives a very good sense for the various campgrounds in Alaska. It provides phone numbers for most places, and we were able to call ahead to check availability and if the wash facilities were available and to check hours of operation. GPS locations are also given for each campground. It also lists some points of interest around the area of the campgrounds. This along with The Milepost were invaluable.
Excellent Guide!
Customer Rating:
My wife and I recently came back from a 2-week RV trip from Alaska exploring as far north as Chena Hot Springs and as far south as Seward and had a wonderful time. This guide book helped us tremendously on our journey because it was easy to use, accurate, and comprehensive. If and when we do decide to return to Alaska for another trip, we'll be sure to buy the same guide and the latest edition.
