Finally arrived at the park after midnight after following Google Maps to incorrect location. The campground layout map was not lit; we chose an unoccupied site for the night and relocated to our site in daylight. Regrettably, we enjoyed our beautiful site for a short time; clean facilities; beautiful views; peaceful; great to be close to Helena for services - we needed tire repair.

Riverside is an annual camp weekend for us. We really liked our spot this time. The campground in general is more run-down than it used to be, but still easy to get to, spots are roomy and convenient location to amenities.

Was great and quiet this time of year! The site is very level and large with a great view of the river. Justin the camp host is awesome and does a great job!

We had a very good time at Riverside as always. As a family we have many August/September birthdays and anniversaries so it is our tradition to camp at Riverside to celebrate all at once. Justin is a wonderful camp host. I was always impressed with how he was never unavailable and how he seemed to be where he was needed if something arose. The camp latrines are clean, the camps are clean upon arrival and Justin is so willing to help people. The boat ramp is usually easy to get in and out of. This year the water was low and the weeds are high so it was a bit more challenging but that is a mother nature problem.

We enjoyed the paved handicap site. Because the site was level, we did not need to use any leveling blocks. We also enjoyed how quite the campground was. No loud traffic to keep you from relaxing any hour of the day or night.

Our church group used the group site as well as several campsites. This campground was perfect for our group. The campground hosts did an amazing job. This is a beautiful campground that is well maintained and has great access.
