We were first time visitors and enjoyed Riverside East. Rode our bikes through Riverside West, and found it even more beautiful with a heavy tree canopy, but it was closed.

Very nice campsites, restrooms were cleaned every other day and the campsites are spaced out enough that you do not have the crowded feeling that I have had in some other camping areas. Very relaxing and comfortable experience.

Nice quiet park with lots of room between sites. There are only a few 50amp hookups though. You need to be sure you fill your freshwater holding tank when you park even though you have water hookup at the site. Many times throughout the day and evening the pressure will be down as low as 20# and you will need to use your onboard pump for pressure. This entire park is fed through a 1” water meter so you can imagine what happens if more than one person tuns the water on.

My wife and I visit the park 4 weeks a year and totally enjoy it. The spots are large and well kept. The wildlife is everywhere if you look for it. The Bathhouse last season was very well kept so clean. I only wish that the main road to the other camping site was paved at least where the campsites are to cut down on the dust, but really that is nitpicking.

When we arrived there was a problem with the electric box, so I let Tyler know and he sent someone right out to fix it. Bathrooms were spotless as always.
