The sites…read moreoffer varying amenities - paved and gravel, hook-ups, picnic tables, log love seats, round table and chairs and umbrella, patio environments, etc depending on location. There is plenty of tent camping sites. The restroom/shower sites are well maintained and clean. The campground area can only be accessed through a security gate. Visiting friends and guest must pay a fee and register at the office. There are a variety of things to explore around the facility and plenty of activities for kids - Petting Zoo, huge pool, awning canopies at pool, hot tub, Rock Wall, Jumping Pillow, mining area, biking, etc. The grounds are nicely landscaped and have inviting environments. The store is very well stocked with a vast variety of camping and other items. I have been to a variety of KOA campgrounds but none have been to the beauty and level of experience as this location. My only con about this location is the price of the sites and merchandise and propane. I suppose this could be the very reason this location is so exceptional. Location, location, location and beauty. The representatives were extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable.

It wasn't perfect, but we had a good time…read more The bathrooms were sufficiently clean and the tent sites were tidy. The store is well stocked and there's lot of activities on-site so the kids were occupied/entertained. The camp kitchen is awesome. Cook and grill all you want. There's outlets if you want to run a rice cooker or instant pot. Hay ride is a nice event and lets you see the whole park. My daughter loved the gem mining. The gems are bigger in these bags than any other that we've done before. We came here in September, and despite advertising a heated pool. The pool was filled with freshly melted glaciers. We still swam, but couldn't do it longer than 15 minutes. The hot tub was hot, that's nice. If your site is situated on the North West side of the park, you will be overcome with a stench of farm animal feces from the petting zoo. The smell is persistent, not just when a breeze comes through. But you weirdly get used to the smell very quickly. It was bad when we got there, and then you stop noticing it. If you leave the area for a couple of hours and come back. It becomes evident again for a little while... The street lights are BRIGHT and stay on the entire night. The tent sites closest to the driveway are most affected. It's probably not a problem if you booked a cabin. Tent sites close to the driveway can be an issue. Overall, it was fine. Good enough where I would try another KOA again. This particular one again? MAYBE.

I highly recommend River Bend Resort for whatever type of camping you like; RV, tent, or cabin. The…read morestaff is very welcoming and friendly. The grounds are well maintained. The showers and restrooms are very clean. The resort is very much geared towards families and children. There are tons of activities for kids; basketball, table tennis, a playground, a tree house, arcade games, air hockey, etc. They also have special events for kids like movie nights, arts and crafts, pony rides, and karaoke. The resort also has private beach access. You can swim and play in the river if you want, or just relax on the shore. We stayed in one of the cabins. It had a queen size bed, nightstand, lamp, chair, dresser, and a couple small stools. There is electricity and outlets. Water, restrooms, and showers are nearby. If you stay in a cabin, I HIGHLY recommend Fish Camp #6; it's the best cabin on the entire property. It's in a quiet corner, there's no neighbors on one side and the best part is you have a STUNNING view of vineyards.

This is one of my favorite campgrounds I've ever been to!!! Kelly and Mikal treat their guests like family. From the first time I called Kelly was so kind and helpful. I have been numerous times now and it feels like going to a little slice of heaven each time. It's clean, beautiful, quiet, and they live on site so if there's an issue they are there to help! The sites are spread out and spacious so you won't have someone right on top of you. The sites are kept up so nicely and the campground itself is simply gorgeous. The bathrooms are clean, there are several free showers, and there is firewood for sale as well. The town of Guerneville itself is only five minutes away, and there are tons of cute little shops as well as a major grocery store. There are darling little art galleries, clothing stores, bakeries, ice cream shops, coffee shops, etc. The ocean is only a 25 minute drive down the road. There are endless little beaches to stop at, as well as numerous little beachside towns with restaurants and coffee shops. You can spend a whole day exploring highway 1, then head back to your campsite to relax. I feel so lucky to only live 3 hours away and be able to head there any time I want. I'm so grateful to Kelly and Mikal for being so accommodating and kind.

Soo loved my stay here, my room was upstairs, loved the wood floor, the bed was so inviting and fluffed with such pretty comforter and incredibly comfortable. The bathroom was very clean, nice clean towels and a thoughtful black small towel for makeup so guests don't ruin the white towels. The entire place was unbelievably clean and the complementary breakfast was superb. We had a delicious strawberry and banana crepe with whip cream and Nutella, hard boiled eggs and the slow drip coffee was such a cute touch. I didn't know what to do and the nice lady behind the counter was kind enough to show me. There is plenty of seating inside as there are outside. Just the cutest place in the back with bicycles lined up on the side, red and blue tables and chairs with umbrellas. Would love to come back and stay here for a few days. I'd give more stars but five is the max. Love this place!!
