This long and winding lake is home to many Anchorage residents who have floatplanes. With tie-downs right in their own backyards, these private plane owners store their planes with safety and convenience and utilize the official runway that the lake provides. Salmon voyage through the lake during spawning season by traveling through the small saltwater channel that meets the lake's overflow. Once there, the fish head north; fighting upstream through the Campbell Creek.

tripadvisorOne review claims there are lots of Kings and Silvers in Campbell Lake. Even if this were true, and it is not, fishing is illegal in this non-stocked lake.
MoreAs stated above, per the AK STATE Constitution , navigable waters are for public use. And the parking area North of Dimond are legal areas to access Cambell lake. Enjoy :)) awesome times and sunsets! Lots of Kings and silvers in that lake!
MoreThere is access. if you really want to canoe or kayak, park at the little park on the north side of Dimond blvd betwen northwood and Arlene. you can put a small boat in there and paddle under the bridge. just stay close to shore as planes have the right of way. In Alaska, the public has a constitutional right to access on and use of navigable and public waters regardless of who owns the underlying bed. This right is defined in Article VIII, Section 14, of the Alaska Constitution, which states: Free access to the navigable or public waters of the state, as defined by the legislature, shall not be denied any citizen of the United States or resident of the state …. This section of the constitution also empowered the state legislature to define navigable and public waters. A navigable water body under state law includes any water of the state that is navigable in fact for any useful purpose including boating, hunting, fishing, and other recreational activities (AS 38.05.965(13)). Public water, as defined in state statute, includes navigable water and all other water that is reasonably suitable for public use and utility including habitat for fish and wildlife in which there is a public interest (AS 38.05.965(18)).
