Johnson Lake State Recreation Area
Parks
Three Alaska State Parks units are on or near the Kasilof River. At mile 109 of the Sterling Highway, adjacent to the bridge where the highway crosses the river is the Kasilof River State Recreation Site, a day-use only park with picnic areas and a boat launch. The Crooked Creek State Recreation Site has a large campground and walk-in access to the point where Crooked Creek joins the river, a prime salmon fishing spot. Johnson Lake State Recreation Area is situated on 332 acres (134 ha) wooded acres on the shores of Johnson Lake. It has a large campground, picnic areas, and access to the Tustumena Lake road, which ends at the Slackwater boat launch on the river with a small, free campground.
