Kings River RV Resort

The other "resorts" on the river need to come here and see what a real campground is like. 

Either way this is a nice campground with nice stuff like a pool, hot tub, clubhouse, and more.

Loved our stay at this resort. Warm pool, riverfront and a gorgeous beach! Will be back with out family of five and two doggos! Stayed for spring break and weather was perfect.

We arrived after carefully following the website and emailed instructions, as our RV GPS and Waze would not have gotten us here. We pulled up in the small parking lot in front of the entry gate. Although we arrived during open hours, there wasn't anyone in the office, but a kid came up to us and offered to get his mom, who was the manager. However, the kid came back alone and told us our information package was on the front board outside the gate and had everything we needed to include the gate code. We then proceeded to our assigned FHU site 34 that was a pull-in with utilities set up for a motorhome. The site was large enough that we could have pulled in, unhooked, and moved the truck out, but we were concerned about connecting to the utilities in this configuration. Back-in site 33 with FHUs was empty, so we called the office number and the man who answered didn't know if it was empty but would go check in the office if we wanted to move sites. It was obvious we were putting him out, but he did call back a few minutes later and said that back-in site 33 was open for our two-day stay. The pads here are all sand, and after settling in, we noticed the campground(CG) was about half full with either residents or transient workers. Some sites were organized, and others were not. The way the large-sized sites here are arranged, you can park your rig in various configurations. The utilities worked fine, including a decent water pressure of around 40 psi. Supposedly, they have Wifi, as indicated by the multiple repeaters around the park, but we received no instructions/password and didn’t see a guest network to try and log in. This was fine as we put out our Starlink and we had 4 bars on Verizon. We are in no way prudes, but several of the private WiFi names we could see on“Other Networks” were pretty disgusting making us question who we were parked by. They do have a nice pool area with two hot tubs. There is also a nice-sized dog park with two separate fenced areas. According to the front of the office, they sell sundries and souvenirs, but they never opened the office during our stay even though should have according to the hours on the door. From the information on their website, the King River that runs adjacent to the CG is pretty much dried up this time of year(January) but fills for the summer season. Sorry to say we didn’t“feel it” on this CG and would not want to be here in the busy season.

Lots of trees which is great unless you have a satellite dish on top of your RV. I should have scouted the place first to get a site with a clear sky. A section of road leading into the park is extremely bumpy. Careful with carbonated drinks after you arrive. Laundry machines are credit card only. The park is along the King River. Which was dry as a desert when I was here. No water presently but looks like that’s not always the case. The speed limit is 5 mph and signs everywhere in case you forget. There are stop signs about every 50 feet. Not at crosswalks or intersections, just randomly placed for no particular reason. At 5 mph it’s a bit redundant. The grounds are kept up nicely and sprinklers everywhere. In the morning my ground was wet along with my just washed truck. All in all I’d probably stay here again. It’s a bit pricey at a little over $80/day.

We stayed here on a Monday night and it was peaceful. The staff was friendly. Frank even came by to check on us. Spots are wide and clean. Our spot had some shade. The spots on either side of us had a bit more. It was buggy and hot but it was august!

Forgot to mention they are working on a pool and a playground.

Nice overnight stay. More than a few full timers. Most likely high season spring-summer when the water runs.
