Captain Cook State Recreation Area

underwhelmed. we were going to stay in the campground that looked very nice but decided to head south instead. not worth the extra drive

Fantastic camping area!! The beach is just steps away from camp spots. Amazing geology- at low tide you can go look for Spirit Stones- they are only found around this area! A ton of 4 wheeling space right next to campground. Have a campfire right on the beach with unbelievable views! Hosts were great.

It's a nice place, lots of woodlands, places to camp, prices are $20 dollars a night 🏕 toilets are all around which belong to each road turn where you park . Some places are not allowed for quad bikes, ATV signs. . Lots of mosquitoes 🦟 are absolutely everywhere, so prepare yourself . I just opened and closed door from a car and 3 were already in 🐒 otherwise beautiful area, enjoyable with tide out . Lots of benches for picnics are everywhere but not enjoyable with flying friends around 😅🤣🤣🤣

Pretty. Not a lot of big wildlife on the beach. Dog friendly. Not my favorite, not my least favorite. Nailed by mosquitoes in the campground. But being June, that had to happen sooner or later.

Was very foggy during our visit. But many well placed public bathrooms and lovely lake view. Well worth our drive from Kenai.
