What Guests Are Saying
Riverside East is a beautiful and peaceful campground with clean sites and ample space between them, making it ideal for families and recreational activities. While the bathrooms are outdated and occasionally not well-maintained, the overall atmosphere is quiet and secluded, with easy access to the river. Some campers reported issues with access and certain amenities, but many enjoyed their stay and appreciated the natural surroundings.

Riverside East is a nice quiet place to camp. All sites are clean and easily accessible. Recommend driving through and pick the spot best for you and your RV.
Also, review the map and pick a spot along the river or over towards the treeline.

This is a hidden gem. We've stayed at countless state and national campgrounds, and this is a great site. The bathrooms and showers are outdated, but if your camper is self contained, this is a campground to consider.
