This RV Park is close to interstate highway 35 and our space was in a section that was the closest, other locations maybe not so loud. There are many seasonal or long-term residents but enough spaces for short term stays. The electrical and water connection worked well at the site, no sewer connection but a dump station is available near the exit. Many large dogs were present and seemed well contained but they were barking a lot without intervention. No information was provided regarding Wi Fi Network or location of restrooms and shower facilities or if laundry facilities were available. A single piece of paper with map and information would have been helpful.

There are no "rooms," its a BEAUTIFUL campground with a very pool, mini golf course, playground, lounge room with books and games with a store attached. They also offer art classes, kid activities, wagon rides and fri/sat bingo. Some of the camp sites are along a river where you can wade, have kids play in or even catch some crayfish. They also offer a bathhouse that has toilets and showers. There also is laundry room on-site. The staff is AMAZING, helpful, fun, assist you with anything you need in a timely manner.

Great little campground just outside Owatonna and minutes from shopping, farmers market and mountain biking trails. We always stay here 1-2 times a season. Wayne and Rebecca are always so gracious and accommodating. Pool is well taken care of as well as the rest of the campground. Well done!

There's no way you cold give this place a low mark. The folks who own this site treat you like old friends/family from the moment you check in! The site is very beautiful and laid out well. We had everything we needed and plan to return in the future for certain! Rebecca and Wayne are some of the nicest folks you could hope to meet while on the road! Book a site here, get settled in, and enjoy life! Our next trip down from Alaska will include a longer stay at the River View Campsite!

Location is convenient but the partying is rampant. Kids running everywhere after dark without lights on their bikes, they are difficult to see. Camped here on "Halloween weekend" August 11. Brought our 4 yo grandson for his first camping trip. Very disappointing to have the owner of the campground approach us saying there were complaints about our GSD barking and scaring kids. The dog was on a lead, unable to reach anyone outside of the site. IMO children should be taught not to think they can pet or approach all animals. When we camped here last year in July we had a good time. This will be our last time camping at Riverview in Owatonna.

Went for a baseball tournament stayed for the fun. The owners Rebecca and Wayne were such great hosts so fun for the kids of all ages. They have great sites and very clean shower house and bathroom. Thank you Matt Aguirre

We really enjoyed our stay at Riverview Campground! Very kid friendly! They do activities for them everyday during the weekends! Nice size lots which we need for our 48-ft toy hauler. Amazing owners and amazing location right off 35W & Hwy14! We already booked for another weekend this summer! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This was another nice RV park to add to our list. Stayed here for a week of baseball and was a great central location for everywhere we needed to be. Spots are spacious and has all the necessary hookups. Everyone we encountered was very friendly and respectful. Bathrooms are nice but we're a little cold as it was a chilly weekend. You will notice a sulfur smell in the bathroom, assuming it's well water, but shower gets nice and hot. Nice stay overall. Would definitely stay here again.

Very nice people. Guided to site. On small river, not far from I-35. Can be noisy. Sites are close together but doable. Full hookups for less than $50! Mostly seasonal. Has pool, playground..

Riverview is an amazing campground! Love coming here and seeing how pretty it is year round. They have a pool, mini golf, a very cozy store and tons of other amenities. Really is a great camp I recommend for sure!
