Pinochle Trail Campground
Breathtaking Views
Early October stay and we had the campground to ourselves. Outhouses we’re close and stocked with TP, paper towels, and bleach spray to wipe down the toilet. Chose spot 7 as it has the best view and was breathtaking to wake up to. Definitely recommend as a stay if you’re taking a tour of Mantanuska Glacier.

Perfect location. 2 miles from Matanuska Glacier Tour, which we strongly recommend doing. 2.4 miles from Long Rifle Lodge, which had great views of Glacier and food. And 10 miles to Dahl Sheep viewing and Lion's Head Trail with awesome views!! Epic weekend!!!

A hidden jewel. Quiet, peaceful and clean. Mama moose with young calf walked through our site. Short drive to dinner at Sheep Mountain Lodge.
We will be back again. Mark

Jordan’s campground was great! Roomy, private, level sites for our RV with great views. Fire rings and picnic tables, too. Very convenient location for the glacier tour.

Like boondocking with outhouse
Directions were troubling. Very plain. But gets the job done. One step above boondocking

Glacier View camping for the 4th!!
Great time with family and friends. We rode 4 wheelers, the kids drove a go cart, met up with other campers that had SxS. Great hideout from reality.

Weekend with a view!
This is a hidden gem!! I wish I could keep this place a secret (it’s hard enough to find good places to reserve and camp nowadays)… campsites are level, outhouse is clean and views in the area are spectacular! We had 5 sites this weekend of all sizes, plenty of room for toy trailers to load/unload. It was so quiet (we might be the loud ones). The access to the Pinochle Trail was so close! The views in the valley were AMAZING! There are several geocaches near by (within a hike or short ATV ride) I hope to make it back up there soon!!! Thank you for sharing Your property with the lucky campers that get to explore the area!!!

Nice, rustic campground. Beautiful views. Four-wheeling, hiking, geocaching right from camp. Mat. Glacier just up the road. We’ll be back!
Just 8 spots, plus 4 more in an “open camping” area. Fire rings and picnic tables at each spot. Two shared outhouses.

The campground was fine, but we had no idea where we were supposed to camp, and never found Jordan. So we just grabbed an empty spot.

Although I was glad to have a safe place to camp, I felt it was alittle overpriced and could use some help w/grounds work. You provided directions, but I was confused anyway.

Larger campers beware
We were hoping for a low key camp spot just outside of Anchorage and that’s what we got! The only issue was the amount of space for our fifth wheel. I had messaged Jordan before we left to make sure we would be ok bringing a 35’ long fifth wheel into the campground and he assured me there was room….there is indeed enough space to park, but parking was the struggle. Not a lot of clearance for turning or backing and the map shows a loop that was roped off when we visited. You couldn’t drive around the campground or even pull far enough forward to effectively back our fifth wheel. If you have a tent, small camper, this is a gem. Larger vehicles should probably seek other arrangements.

Pinochle camping was easy to find, easy to park. The campground was very clean and our spot was level!
We enjoyed the Pinochle Creek area history!

Whole group impressed!
Absolutely beautiful land with perfect access to pinochle trail. The campground was peaceful and Jordan really accommodated our military "family" group by reserving out a section for us. Absolutely will be back!
