Nice place, great staff. Gets really busy weekends and hollidays.

On The Delta

We (party of 4) were there primarily because we rented a boat from their Marina. That went well! This is an RV campground &amp; full-complement resort on Bethel Island, San Joaquin River Delta. Many RVers appear to be long-term or full-time residents.

The tent-area was a clearing, fully backed up to the levee, with some shade and a water spigot. Appears to be only 4 “sites,” which are defined by picnic tables, GENEROUSLY spaced, no fire rings AND the Delta is h.o.t.! It’s also on the far edge of the property, so car traffic was MINIMUM — and NO generators were heard, even though the RV section is huge!!!

The rest rooms were in the Marina building, a short walk. We would DEFINITELY return for boating and tenting!!! 




Quiet, NO other tenters!

The office helped accommodate us for an extended stay during a busy time. Some sites are pretty close together. We have a nice site right now, but decided to park the truck at a nearby on-site lot due to the size of this space (but we were thankful they worked us in, and our truck did fit, but so close to a family with 3 or 4 kids so they needed a little breathing room!) Wifi and cell reception is really poor, even when you’re right outside the office. Check for updates with them if they get a new cell tower nearby. Waterfront Restaurant on the levy right across the way on the backside of the property. Right now, they’re open Thursday-Sunday with outdoor bands on Saturdays. We have a 32’9” fifth wheel and a Chevy 2500. Site 70 was good size for us, suite 109 a little tight but in the shade and pretty view out the back! My only complaint, the water spigot is really close to the ground and really close to the sewer drain. Scrub with bleach before booking up your water and you’ll be fine.  We would definitely stay here again!


Friendly staff

Sugar barge is right on the delta.  They have a boat trailer parking lot and a boat ramp.   The rv spots are very close together. The bathrooms have been recently remodeled and are very nice.   They rent kyacks and have a restaurant that looks right over the water.
