We have driven to Alaska twice, but in an SUV and used lodging after arriving in Alaska. This year we plan to pull a 29TT. I believe that a lot of the campsites on Seward and Homer beaches do not ha...

Generators on the Kenai, st public campgrounds, have caused me to see more campground rage than anything else. Personal disclaimer, I really dislike the sounds made by generators. Even though I personally own 4 of them. In most parts of Alaska, where the tourists go, there usually a campground not too far away that has electric plug ins, if I need power. I was thinking that some of the beach sites in Seward have power and can be reserved. We most often stay out at Stoney Creek RV which has power.
Several of the Homer area CGs have power, Heritage, Sportsman's and some of the Homer Spit RV and a couple up on the hill or in town. The town run campground on the Spit are all dry and without power, so far as I remember but we enjoy the Heritage RV park, a bit pricy but less than several here in Florida where we stay at times. LOL
The beach campground in Seward is just to crowded for our taste, most are too close to each other to be able to put out their slides. This CG is better during the week but weekends can turn into a drubken brawl on the weekends when the Anchorage crowd shows up to party.
I am somewhat reticent about leaving my beagle in our RV when it is hot, especially if it is powered by a standby generator. Plugged into the grid, I feel more comfortable leaving him for a few hours. I have seen people, tired of listening to an unattended generator, turn them off, or give them a drink of bottled water. They get guiet, in a hurry when that happens. We had to generate our power for about 12 years while living in the Alaska bush. If and when those diesels would quit in the middle of the night, the quietness would have me instantly awake in my bed.
