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 While the bathrooms are outdated and occasionally not well-maintained, the overall atmosphere is quiet and secluded, with easy access to the river.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.

Nice large campsites with concrete sheltered tables, fire pits and grill. We were in the Hobo loop and didn't have a playground or walkable shower house but didn't need those things. Our pad #38 was concrete, the only one in the loop.

Fire ring was way to close to the bushes. We didn’t feel safe starting a fire.

Really liked having a covered picnic table. The only thing I wish is that is was a little further away from the camping spot. So people can let there awning out. Other than that it was nice!

Small campground. Very quiet and peaceful. Not a lot of activities for kids. 4 50 amp spots rest are 30 amp. Water pressure was ok. No swimming due to zebra mussels.

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.
