Coloma Resort | RV Park in Coloma, CA

As a family of 4, we make our annual trip to Coloma.  We get a cabin near the river where we see deer, ducks, otters and people rafting.  Great way to disconnect and reconnect with family.

Nice mixed use resort with RV camping spots (full hookups or just w & e), well designed tent sites, rental cabins and group bunkhouse accommodations.  Sitting right on the shore of the south fork of the American River.  River access at multiple locations and just across from a historical site where the California gold rush began.  The property is well maintained and was pretty busy over the weekend,  but slows down during the week.

I have been going here for years. I go with family and I go alone. Staff is always friendly and accommodating. Campground and restrooms are always clean. I love the history that surrounds this location and in walking distance. This is my favorite campground.

Great place to stay right where the California historical gold rush started. Some of the RV and tent sites are right on the river. Tent sites are spacious and there are small cabins for those that want that type of convenience. Clean grounds and courteous staff. This is also a wedding and event venue. We stayed over for New Year's and we had our same spot as previous years. Year round enjoyment.

Green areas near campsites full of dog poop. Camping sites has only one restroom not enough to cover the needs of the campers. During night time camping rules are not being imposed by the camping staff the so called quite time which is 10 pm. Broken bottles are on the rivers edge and on the rivers little man made pools. Alot of unwanted materials are just being left on the rivers edge. You can smell cannabis all over the campsites.i would not commend this place unless they will do something immediately and imposed camp rules.

We've been coming to Coloma Resort with our trailers for 4 years with friends.  It's on the American River.  They have RV, cabins, wagons, and tent camping sites.  Many sites are on the riverbank.  These have power and water with a dump station onsite.  Most sites off the river are full hook-up. They have a pool, playground, store, and a lot of grassy areas.  Several restrooms and showers throughout the park.  Always well stocked and clean.

Best for last the staff are so friendly.   Hope you enjoy the site.

RV sites have a noon checkout time. Cabins are a 10am checkout.  We scheduled our 2025 Memorial Stay when we checked out.  The facility has gotten a face-lift with automated gates, a check-in shack, and upgraded greenery.

Labor Day 2024: The park is full. Had a nice visit with friends.  I'm hoping to book a spot for 2025.

Memorial Holiday 2025 - lots of flowers,  nice walking paths, and the friendly staff are still there.

We’ve made this the annual trip for my wife’s birthday at the end of March. It’s a nice weekend away, when we have nothing to do, no other obligations. There is a bunch of history in the area including the gold rush and a couple short hikes. Weather in Spring can be unpredictable, and the river is moving very fast. Watch your kids.

The park is clean, well maintained and staff is friendly.

I've been coming here since I was a kid, almost every year for the gold rush reenactment.  They have done lots of work, some is good, and some, not so much.

I guess the old store burned down, which is shame because the new store has none of the charm, and about a tenth of items, as the old store.  There used to be way more little nicknacks and kitchy camping gifts and things.

They also got rid of the chicken coop and the little old west town.   All the old facades of blacksmith shop, banks and hotels are gone.  Not a single place to take corny old times photos and that's a shame.

On the positive side, they have expanded a lot! Where a ropes course used to be they now have all sorts of lodging options.  There are little cabins, glamping tents, bunk houses, a full cottage with deck, tent spots, rv spots and even two covered wagons.

It is not cheap, but they have really cleaned up the property and we saw the crew cleaning leafs and taking trash constantly.

It's right in Coloma on the American River, so you really can't be the location.   It will get cold in the winter, but that doesn't stop people from rafting.

First time visiting and will definitely be coming back. We had space 98 and it was nice spot but backing in took several attempts as not a lot of room but once in all good. We have 38’ 5th wheel and that’s the only reason it was a little more difficult with space. Smaller trailers were able to back in first attempt.

It's a family tradition now to go there every year. We book the camping spot each year right after we leave there. It's very family friendly with a lot of camping activities and good facilities. The restrooms and shower rooms are clean and spacious. It's right next to the American River with a good view and convenient to arrange a day trip on the water for rafting. The store is lovely and it carries almost everything you need for camping. Their souvenirs are cute too.  You can even buy a small bottle of gold for kids :)

Nice, friendly and the scene was breath taking along the American River.The park is well kept. We will go back again.

The rapids are great for river tubing if you start at the grassy area near the top of the system, and there's a small trail that runs alongside the river if you love taking a run or walk sometime during the day. The campsites are a little close together, but they're nice! I've been there a few times and for sure, there's a few things I'd recommend: bring a canopy for the wasps and a small fan because it can get a bit warm at night! I thing one of the more interesting things to do is panning for gold and looking for deer. We've seen quite a few deer which is always so cool. On the campsite itself there's a pool and even ice cream socials on Thursdays. We always have a really good time at this park. I'd highly recommend it! - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group
