Reserved an end site right on the river almost a year in advance. We actually picked the perfect spot for our large 46' fifth wheel. It had its own little extra parking spot just to the side with a nice shade tree and bench. The location was excellent ... We were within 150 ft of the back of Target, but you'd never know. Nice mature trees & grasses with a beautiful river. Pro's: 1) Beautiful and well kept campground. Flowers, mature shade tree's, and beautiful river views. 2) Great hookups with no issues. 3) Excellent staff and hosts. Guided us to our site right on the river. 4) TMobile service was *average* so we elected to use Starlink without issue. 5) Close to shopping, grocery, and eateries. 6) Good looking dog park and river/lake fishing. Con's: 1) We tipped over the $100/night mark with taxes and fee's. The most expensive campground we've stayed at recently (since Florida in the winter). 2) River sites are marked with tiny orange cones. They can be a bit tricky to back in to, but thankfully, you get a guide to help! :) We loved this campground and would definitely stay again in the future.

We absolutely loved this campground. It was so easy on every site to park an RV, they left plenty of room to maneuver. The grounds were beautiful. The laundry room and bathrooms were spotless. The hosts were friendly snd helpful. This was the best campground we have ever stayed at. If you are in the area don’t hesitate to book here!

Riverbend RV Park and Cabins is extraordinary. Registration was beyond easy. A staff person came to our vehicle to sign us in and escort us to our site alongside the river. Every aspect of our stay was 5-star. When we were out exploring the area, a staff person notified us that our fresh water hose had developed a small leak and that they had turned off the water. She also offered assistance if we needed it when we got back to our site. The bath house/ restrooms were modern, full-service and spotless. And the pot of fresh coffee outside the office in the AM as we departed was the frosting on the cake. We'll done, Riverbend

This park is a gem! Quiet and close to everything. All the camp host and workers were kind, helpful, and amazing! We were even invited to a Memorial Day BBQ by the staff/owners. Every site is spacious and clean. We were in an RV site by the river. We totally enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend staying here!

What a great story and place! My wife and I drove through this resort in 2019, while we were visiting the area. At that time it was pretty overgrown and somewhat run down. Some friends decided to stay in the RV park last week. We decided to join them, and WOW, what a pleasant surprise. The resort has gone through a major renovation, and it's beautiful! Restrooms / showers are like brand new, the grounds are very well groomed, and the RV sites are clean with what seemed to be new gravel. Prices were reasonable. Additionally, every staff member we met was very polite and pleasant. Oh, and they serve free coffee in front of the front office - and it's REALLY good! We will definitely return to Riverbend RV Park & Cabins!!!
