Riverview RV Park & Campground
Overview
Riverview RV Park & Campground provides a serene landing spot for travelers exploring the base of the Colorado Rockies. Situated directly along the banks of the Big Thompson River, the park offers a lush, wooded environment that contrasts beautifully with the rugged canyon walls nearby. It serves as a comfortable home base for those looking to experience Northern Colorado’s natural beauty without sacrificing proximity to modern conveniences. The park is known for its towering trees and the relaxing sounds of the water, creating a tranquil atmosphere for a weekend getaway or a long-term stay.
Location & Surroundings
The park is located on the western edge of Loveland, acting as a true gateway to the Big Thompson Canyon. Its position along Highway 34 makes it an ideal stop for those heading toward Estes Park. Despite its convenient highway access, the abundance of mature cottonwood trees and the immediate access to the riverbank create a peaceful environment. Visitors are surrounded by the sights of the high plains meeting the mountains, offering a unique geographic perspective of the Front Range landscape.

Guests can choose from a variety of sites designed to accommodate modern rigs of all sizes. The facility is well-equipped with practical features to ensure a comfortable stay:
- Full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp electrical service.
- Spacious pull-through sites and scenic riverside back-in options.
- A clean laundry facility, bathhouses, and high-speed Wi-Fi access.
Beyond the basics, the park offers private river access, allowing anglers to enjoy trout fishing just steps from their campsite. There is also a playground for families and a small convenience store for essential supplies and propane refills.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate being only a short drive from the iconic Rocky Mountain National Park, where hiking and wildlife viewing are world-class. Closer to the park, the city of Loveland offers a vibrant art scene, including the renowned Benson Sculpture Garden. For those who enjoy water sports, Boyd Lake State Park is nearby for boating and swimming. Additionally, the proximity to downtown Loveland provides easy access to local breweries, boutique shopping, and diverse dining options.
Who This Park Is Best For
This destination is an excellent fit for active families and retirees who want easy access to mountain adventures while staying in a well-shaded environment. It is particularly well-suited for travelers who enjoy fly fishing or those seeking big-rig friendly sites near major tourist corridors. If you prefer a mix of rustic riverside charm and functional amenities that facilitate day trips into the mountains, this park hits the mark for your Colorado itinerary.

We stayed here a couple weeks ago and had a lovely experience. All employees we interacted with were kind and helpful. It's a huge park with lots of trees and open areas and a path by the river. Great place to walk our dogs. We were supposed to return this week after visiting family in Nebraska. However, our truck completely died and as full-time RVers, that means we are stuck until we can purchase a new truck. We called to let Riverview know we couldn't make it and they were so, so understanding. We only had to pay a small fee for our cancelation, despite the late notice. We have family in this area and visit multiple times a year. Riverview will now be our permanent choice for where to stay!

I loved being close to town but also feeling like being in the wilderness. The spaces were very close together, not very level and not great to sit out and enjoy or sit up a pen for our pups. We also was not told that you could not pick up any television stations even with an antenna.

It was a beautiful park. Very spacious spaces. You are able to fish in the river the entire length of the RV park. When we were there and I believe every Sat night in the summer there is a concert at the little park there. Bring your chairs any beverages. And enjoy your self. Very nice people in the office will definitely be back.

I love this campground! The office staff is friendly and professional... like 5-star hotel professional! I like that the campsites and roads are gravel and dirt. I like to walk around, look at other rigs, and talk to other campers, and gravel is easier on my feet and legs than concrete. The bathrooms and showers are very clean. The showers had warm water. It's quiet. There is a dirt trail all around the campground, and part of it goes along the Big Thompson River with stunning views. There are lots of trees for shade. It's conveniently located to everything you could need or want.

Beautiful location right by the river. We could walk down to it directly from our campsite. The water is shallow enough to place a chair in. It is VERY COLD water, but it feels so good with the Summer sun. Spots are nice, well maintained and clean. Bathrooms and showers are nice and clean. We have 4 dogs and were charged $20 for them. That is for supplies to maintain the cleanliness by supplying dog poop bags, which they were out of for 2 days…. We used paper towels and ziplock bags. But other than this, our stay was amazing and worth the trip. It’s located right outside of Loveland, CO on the way to Estes Park. Tucked off the main highway and so quiet. We definitely want to come back next year!
