Byers Lake is our favorite campground, off the Parks Hwy, heading north towards Denali. The campsites are nice. There are lots of hiking trails to explore around the lake and beyond. Boating on the lake is fun. We were there in May over Memorial weekend, and the camp host position was not filled yet, and there was still a little ice on parts of the lake. This is part of Denali State Park, and costs $20 per night.
