Reserve Denali Site Now
With a couple of exceptions, you can usually make your way around Alaska by RV without worrying about reservations. A major exception is Denali National Park from late June to about August 20. While you might occasionally luck out, you are much better off with a reservation.
Visit here to make a reservation on line. The process is kind of convoluted as you work from page to page, but eventually you'll get through it. On this site, the only phone number we could find for the reservation service was 800-622-7275.
Our favorite campground is Teklinka River, about 28 miles in from the park entrance. You can drive an RV that far into the park only if you have a reservation. When you make your campground reservation for Tek, also buy a Teklinika bus pass so you can further explore the park.

I drove up to Denali Park last year after receiving tons of Alaska literature begging me to come up to visit. Upon arrival, I was told that they had no room for me and would not have anything available for the next 30 days!!
It seems like a park that has SIX MILLION ACRES could accomodate me! I'm fully self-contained and don't need hookups. They have a huge paved parking lot at the visitor's center. You can leave your RV there for all day while you take a day bus trip - but no overnight parking!!! We were forced to exit the park and find somewhere else to spend the night and then drive back in the next day. I guess they just don't have any room for an overflow lot!
