For Yukon Trails RV & Camping Resort: PROS:
- Friendly staff.
- Nice camp store with a small supply of essential needs.
- Pretty well maintained, though our site had some litter and glitter from some previous guests' party. From the seasonal sites we saw, all of the campers/park models were in good shape and the sites were well taken care of. No signs of derelict units.
- The campground itself has a very good state park vibe. 95% of the sites are under tree cover of some kind. Most of it is tall pines, but we got lucky that our site was in a deciduous tree stand. For the most part, sites weren't stacked on top of each other. There was room to breathe.
- Quiet hours were well observed. Probably didn't hurt that it rained most of the time we were there.
- My children are grown, but I would say this is a very family friendly campground. They have activities planned for just about every weekend.
CONS:
- Not a lot of sites for weekenders. We got lucky I guess. You can't reserve specific sites online. I know that's common with private campgrounds, but government park reservation systems are miles ahead on this front.
- I had always heard how bad wi-fi is at private campgrounds, but that didn't keep me from suckering myself into buying two nights of access for $10. It was terrible. If you're data plan is good, stay with that. I did fine on Verizon data.
- For someone used to camping with electric for $45/night, paying $25 more per night doesn't seem like a good value. Granted, there is the overhead involved with running a private campground, and I've been spoiled by subsidized state parks for a couple of decades.
This is a Thousand Trails affiliate, so there may be some perks for members that I don't have access to. When compared to other private campgrounds in the area, $71 a night is not a bad deal, but I'm a spoiled state park user, so it's hard to get excited about that. I would certainly stay again if I had to, especially considering another "resort" we visited that was quite a bit slummier. That's the thing about private properties, you never really know what you're going to get until you get there.

For Yukon Trails RV & Camping Resort: The accommodation were satisfactory however, the place is way too expensive. No sewer the space was very small and no grass only gravel/sand!
