I love this place!! 20 minutes outside of town in the middle of nature, with beautiful mountains surrounding and a nice little lake! Campsites are decently spaced. I will keep coming back!

This was an excellent camp site! Even though we had folks on both sides, it felt private because of all the trees and bushes. Bathrooms were clean and accessible, nearby water spout, and the grounds were beautiful to walk through. We even had our very people-shy dog with us without incident because it felt so secluded. Great tent spot with a firepit and picnic table. 10/10 would recommend!

Great location! Peaceful, very quiet. Gets very misty and moist here so bring a canopy if you are choosing a spot that doesn’t have one! Spotted a black bear at the lake. 10/10 only 30 minutes from city of Valdez. 5 minutes from main falls pullouts!

My husband and I have stayed at Blueberry Lake for the last few years. The reservation website has always worked well for us. We reserved months in advance and we always have our name on the board.

Beautiful campsite, it was rainy so only two other campers on the campgrounds. Vault bathrooms were probably one the cleanest I’ve seen.

First, the campground is in such a beautiful, serene place that it makes it easy to enjoy the campground. We were lucky to have good weather most of the time, and the outhouses were well equipped and kept clean. Thank you for working to make all campers stays the best they can be!

What a lovely campground! We had site 14 and the view from that site was spectacular. It was close to the toilets, too, but not directly across from them, so a great location all around.

Very nice cabin and location.
It would be nice to have an anchor ball for boats. The bay in front of the cabin has a lot of area that is shale not mud

The campsite was very nice and well maintained! The signage was a little hard to figure out at first since it’s quite small, but other than that we had a totally seamless experience!

We loved staying at Blueberry Lake in our RV rental. The views are spectacular and the lake is very pretty. Nice and quiet at night and we enjoyed the walk along the trail by No 9 pitch. Thank you!

It was great to camp on blue berry lake state park!
We made a reservation and we felt welcome when our name was at the right spot.
When we were there the weather was beautiful, so perfect to swim in the lake. The kids enjoyed.
When we left a moose was jumping out of the bushes, and just walked to the green area besides our spot, she took all the time to let us make some great pictures

Weekend Trip to Valdez Adventure Alliance
Moraine cabin is beautiful! They had recently done trail maintenance which cleared the view of Shoup Glacier. The cabin and outhouse were clean. The heater was not needed in July. I recommend paddling to the cabin so you can then kayak or canoe out to the glacier. We paddled out early one morning and were able to see seals!
