Haines is a major stop for the Alaska Marine Highway System, whose ferries drop off RVers and other travelers en route to the Alaska Highway to the north. The town of Haines sits on the northern coast of Lynn Canal, the longest and deepest fjord in the Americas. Located close to Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, it marks the northern tip of Alaska. It has the most picture-perfect scenery of any town in Alaska, thanks to its proximity to towering snow-capped mountains and hanging glaciers. Haines may be reached by road, air, and boat and is located about 40 miles from the U.S./Canadian border, north of Juneau and slightly south of Skagway.
Many people consider Haines to be Alaska’s “adventure capital” due to the abundance of exciting opportunities it provides for vacationers. Imagine yourself in a place where stunning scenery and exciting opportunities await you around every corner. The Oceanside RV Park and Year-Round Campground in Haines offers just that.
The Haines Hitch-Up RV Park is well located near the center of Haines, close to state parks, museums, native culture, salmon, halibut, and trout fishing waterways, and bear watching opportunities, and is bordered by the snow-capped peaks of the Chilkat Mountains. In order to have a better look at the local countryside, animals, and fishing, the park’s personnel can put you in touch with many of the local tours.
