Been going here since the early 90s as a kid. It is by far the best place to camp if you like a quiet family oriented PRIVATE camp ground. The new owners are absolutely wonderful. Can't wait to be there again.

We just finished another successful family camping trip here. We have been coming every year for over 30 years. The new Owner Dan has taken a lot of steps to add more activities for campers and is such a nice guy! They will help in any way they can and the campground is as beautiful as it ever was. Nice large sites ,a new “blob pillow” for the kiddos, 3 playgrounds and a Nice Clean lake to swim and fish in and since it’s catch and release kids and adults alike have fun catching fish all day long! Already booked for next year and can’t wait!!

We have been going to River Valley since I was born. We our now on our third new owners Dan & Michelle. Memorial weekend was our first weekend under the new owners and it still felt the same. Family fun camping! My girls loved the new Mining ⛏️ Edition. Love the kids activities they had each night. The new owners are friendly and very down to earth. If you are looking for a fun family place with range of activities this is the place to be.

Really nice RV park (has trees!) With 6 rustic tent sites which are nice. A few of the tent sites are right on the lake. Trail in the woods is about .5 miles and they have kayaks and peddle boats to rent and can fish from shore also. Showers and restrooms very clean. Shower water was lukewarm which was just barely ok at night and might be pretty rough on a cool morning. They have a very strict 5mph speed limit and you will get yelled at if going over. Its really hard to drive so slow...my car idles even faster than that! Every Saturday there is an Amish market at the campground from 9-11AM. Seemed like they have live music most Saturday nights. Camp store on site.

Great campground and incredibly clean! Very friendly staff and owners, great prices on rustic cabins. My family have rented the cabins consecutively for at least 8 years and will continue.

Absolutely loved our stay at River Valley! Everyone treats you like family here. We met so many incredible folks and left with new friendships.The bathrooms are incredibly clean, the lake/beach is beautiful. Hoping we land a seasonal spot here because we are hooked!

Camped here since I was a baby with my grandparents and some of my best memories were made here since the early 1980s, only been back a few times the last few years but occasionally I stop out just for a day of fishing with the kids on a day pass. Still one of the best places I know of!
