A quiet riverfront retreat on Alaska's legendary Seward Highway — where the wild Kenai Peninsula begins and every morning sounds like a fresh start.
Tenderfoot Creek Campgrounds sits along the Seward Highway at Mile 46, just outside Seward, Alaska — a spot chosen by travelers who want to step off the pavement and into something quieter.
We offer a range of campground accommodations for those passing through on the way to Kenai Fjords, those turning around to explore the Kenai Peninsula, and those who simply want a night under a sky that still feels wide open. No frills. No rush. Just a clean, comfortable place to park, rest, and wake up to the sound of moving water.
Designated tent sites nestled among the trees along the creek. Bring your gear, claim your patch of ground, and let the river do the rest.

Inquire nowWe're located at Mile 46 of the Seward Highway, roughly halfway between Anchorage and Seward. It's a deliberate stop — far enough from the road to feel removed, close enough that you can still reach the port town in under 30 minutes.
From here, Kenai Fjords National Park is a short drive. The Kenai River for salmon fishing is nearby. The Exit Glacier, the Port of Seward, and the tide pools at Resurrection Bay are all within reach. But the best part of this location is what you don't have to rush to see — the quiet stretch of highway between Anchorage and the coast.
