Located at Mile 35 of the Alaska Highway, this park is nestled in the Peace Valley along the Peace River. They have non-powered, powered and full serviced sites. Bathrooms are pit-toilets and I didn't see any shower options. The park does have a nice playground, shelter, boat launch,... They have custom made Peace Island fire pits and the onsite managers were driving around with bundles of firewood. The sites were nicely spaced and flower baskets scattered around the property. Overall, a very positive experience. We will be back but will request a site a little farther from the bridge...road noise!

Tip: if you find yourselves in need of any RV repairs, ie new water pump, we highly recommend Fort Motors in Fort St John. Ask for Valerie to set up your repairs with Mike. They will help you get in for the repair and back on the road!

We had a nice site with views of the mountains during the day and city lights at night. We are traveling in a motorhome so pulled in to enjoy these views from our seats as it was a cool evening. The site has hook ups on both sides so backing in is also an option. The park is easy to access off I 10. Check in was friendly and efficient. A nice spot to stay while passing thru the area.

We didn't have a reservation but we're able to secure a water and electric site for $50. The site was a long pull thru. We had plenty of room between our neighbor. The RV Park is a gravel lot behind a saloon. It's a mix of full timers and those passing thru the area. They had a bath house that we did not use nor the water. The electric (50/30/20) was easy to connect. There was a dump station near the restrooms. All said, the RV Park met our needs but seemed expensive for limited amenities.

We did check out the Saloon before dinner. Upon arrival the two pool tables and shuffleboard were in use. There was a Nine Ball Pool tournament starting at 6pm. We watched locals arriving with their sticks. They feature a full bar, draft beer and have a Celebrity Shelf of liquors featuring various flavors of Blue Chair Bay Rums by Kenney Chesney, Redneck Riviera whiskey by John Rich and Casa Salvaje Tequila by Tanya Tucker. Tanya's early childhood was spent primarily in Willcox, Arizona. The Saloon offers very limited food options.

We spent two nights (minimum requirement when we booked) here in February. The location is great for walking to wineries or a brewery. The park itself is nice. You are greeted immediately upon arrival and escorted to your site. Hookups are good. I thought the sites were a little bit close together and if people keep their truck connected to their 5th wheeler you are going to have a hard time exiting. There are three longhorns to see at the back of the property. We would stay here again.

Like others have mentioned, the layout is different. It's helpful they guide you to your spot on a golf cart. The campground itself is on a hill. There is a golf course on the very top. We had one of 4 - 50 Amp sites. They have full hookups, water and electric, no hookups, tent and cabin rentals. At the office there is a mini golf course and cornhole. The office had a freezer of ice cream treats. We didn't use their wifi but did use our Starlink. May just be the time of year but there were a lot of flys and bees. Overall, a nice park. We would return if in the area.

There are actually 2 parks Shady Creek RV Park and Storage and its sister park The Retreat at Shady Creek. We stayed at The Retreat at Shady Creek.

This is a nice park with a lot of what appeared to be full time residents. We choose this park based on proximity to visiting a family member. We did not enjoy all the amenities offered - pool, fitness center,  … It is gated but a rocket science degree is not necessary to figure out the code! ;) The park is a jewel in the rough. There is a lot of development nearby. It's a nice park and we would return again if in the area.

It's interesting how some parks provide too much communication and others minimal! After booking this reservation and receiving a confirmation email, that was the last communication of any form with the property/management. Upon arrival, we went to the office - which was closed -  so, we decided to just go to the spot we reserved. We are assuming no site changes. The property itself is really pretty and peaceful. We would stay here again. My husband did note that he got 2000 steps just trying to locate a garbage can/dumpster! Ha! Owell, it’s all good. We enjoyed the overnight stay.

Great spot to spend a few nights. We unfortunately were only passing through the area. The reservation process was easy to make online with a quick follow-up call from the office. Upon arrival, we checked in and were provided a detailed map to assist in finding our home for the night. We had a waters edge spot (+$5). It provided a clear view of the river. Our site had a picnic table on grass. They had a vehicle wash station and garbage dumpsters as you entered/exited. The campground itself is clean. They also have Cabins and a buffet restaurant onsite. The park wifi was not good but our Verizon signal was great! We would stay here again. Price is expensive but so is AK.

Cabins, tents, vans, RVs, trailers, bigger cabin or mobile home... all were seen at this location. Sites were decent in size and roads easy to navigate. If you have Starlink the sites are limited. If you have a sensitive dog, the Main Street road noise is not ideal. Check in was lengthy but friendly. It worked for one-night but we wouldn't return.

We stayed here in May and again in August. The owner is friendly and campground clean with anything you might need - laundry, gift store, wifi, restaurant/bar, ... 30 flavors of ice cream!

May - we ate at the restaurant in May and enjoyed our meals. You should have a drink at the bar and sit in the saddle seats! The wifi is ok if you are close to the main building. We found in the morning Verizon was a better option.

August - We didn't have a reservation but check in was easy. The wifi did not work for us so we're happy to use Starlink for the first time. This is the first spot with coverage (as of Aug 2022) on the Alcan heading South. It was pouring so we didn't use any of the campground offerings this trip.

There is a visitor center across the street that is supposed to have great wifi.

We'll be back next year with Starlink and will enjoy a meal in the restaurant again.
