Riverbend RV Park

We took our new (to us) 30 foot trailer out on a quick first trip while we were getting it registered and chose Riverbend for its location (close to DMV and friends). It is right off the highway so you hear some road noise, but it is tucked back behind big trees that make it feel more remote. The pull thru site was easy to get in and out of and all the hookups worked well. The staff is what made it great though—they loaned us camp chairs because we didn’t have any yet, and refunded the cost of renting a fire pit because we didn’t use it even though we didn’t ask. Then when we needed more time to pack up because we are new to this, they kindly allowed us extra time. Granted, the park wasn’t very busy since it was off season, and they didn’t have anyone coming in to the same site that day, but it was still appreciated by us. They were just all really nice people and the park itself was very comfortable and pleasant. We plan to stay again, and think it will make a nice spot to launch bigger trips from.

Yes your by a river “creek” but for the price they charge it’s not worth it, they don’t have a pool or anyway to keep cool during the hot summer an you can’t swim in the river. People are constantly walking through your site if your up against the creek and staff is constantly driving by watching for the slightest rule broken. You are better off driving up the 180 to sequoia rv in Dunlap if your going to the park.

Spent two nights at site 10 back in to the creek. The sites that back in to the creek are narrow the other sites in the middle are more spacious.

The location is beautiful, but the park is in desperate need of upkeep and landscaping. vegetation is overgrown, my site was all that clean when we arrived, lots of tall weeds.

Location is very convenient to explore both Yosemite and Sequoia on day trips and the city of Sangers is just minutes away with a walmart and various restaurants and chains nearby. access is also very easy right of the highway.

With just some minor upkeep and perhaps more staff (did not see any during my stay) this would be a wonderful RV park.

This park is nice and clean. Despite being right off the 180, it’s pretty quiet. Our site was right by the creek, so it made a nice view. The only drawback is how close together the sites are. There’s not much room to move around without being right under your neighbor’s window. The sites are fairly level and the full hook ups are always nice. We had cell service and didn’t have any issues with the WiFi. It wasn’t super fast, but since we are camping, I don’t expect it to be. We have family in Fresno, so we would definitely go back, but I might try to pick a larger site. This is a great location to be able to go up into Sequoia, Kings Canyon, and Yosemite.

Enjoyed our stay here. Office was closed so we never got to interact with the lady in person but she was kind over the phone. The RV park is near a river or you can go fishing. The site was on grass but fairly level. We had a full hook up and no issues. There were a good number of people staying there but we were able to find two nights last minute. There are activities for kids like a playground and bocce ball and basketball. Lots of families staying there and it felt very safe. Wi-Fi was spotty. It was it about an hour and a half drive to Sequoia in Kings Canyon national Park. We would stay again.

First thing I want to mention: Apple Maps took us to the wrong side of the road. If you put the address in, when you get close... look on the right side of the road, not the left like the GPS tells you.

Our price reflects the weekly rate. It's $275/week.

We stayed during the 'rona situation - all facilities weren't open. The laundry was. The office was closed so when we arrived we had to call them several times to get them to answer. We were supposed to get a confirmation email that said our spot number. But we never got the email.. We finally got ahold of her and she told us.

Side note: Every time I called, she never answered. I left messages and she called back. So, if you need to get ahold of her... just keep calling lol She'll answer... eventually! ;)

The office is more towards the back. There's a sign that is supposed to be pointing to go straight.. but it looks like its pointing to go left. Stay straight. Pull all the way in. Office is on the right. Tiny, little house.

Our site was 25 and it was HUGE! All grass which we loved. It was long and wide. You could've fit 2 rigs in this site if you wanted to. Sites are FHU.

Cell signal is great. Not sure what happened with the previous review..
Verizon: 26 down / 9 up AT&T: 40 down / 6 up

There is a lot of road noise in the sites near the front. The sites in the back are probably a bit quieter. We sleep with the AC on so it drowns out any noise but during the day you could hear the road. Might bother some.

Location is pretty close to Sequoia and Kings Canyon. Again, we are here during COVID so there isn't much open really. But this would be a great location for adventures!

Overall, we liked this park and will stay again.
