It's now 2025, so I thought it was time to re-review this park. In the years since my review, positive changes have been made. They are slowly upgrading the camping spots, with the new spots looking fantastic! There is more care being given to cleanup & maintain the park again. Though lots of trees & park equipment are gone, it leaves open space to work with in the future. It also features the only dump station I know of in Lompoc, so that's very helpful. Thankfully without people there to harass them, it seems the duck population is coming back.
We loved staying at this park, the RV area may not be attractive but it's a very quiet place to stay and the park next door is nice. The park rangers are also friendly. The only bad part is if you're relocating you can not stay longer than 21 days, you have to leave for a week then can return. However, if you're on a temp assignment for work then you can apply to stay an extended amount of time without having to leave.
We enjoy walking the track in the mornings and evenings as well. The distance markers are great way to gage your walk/ run. It's just a hair under a mile around the loop. Very picturesque with the ducks around the pond as well. There are an abundance of RV sites with electrical hook ups and shower facilities as well. Great place to spend the day with friends and family too for BBQ. Horse shoe pits and reserveable party areas round out the parks offerings.
A hidden gem of a park. I've lived in Lompoc for years now and never new this existed. When I heard "River Park" I only thought it was a campground. I didn't know theres a huge, gorgeous park in the back at the end of a VERY LONG driveway. It's great place to have a BBQ or a picnic or to play volleyball or horeshoes. There's even a pond with ducks and other bird.
Nice park for the whole family! Lots of green grass to run in and the park is good for all ages. There's a walking path and horseshoe pits plus plenty of picnic areas.
It's a relatively cool park as far as open space goes (drone flying is recommended here). There's a clean pond with fish and ducks, great for ambiance, aesthetics, picnics you know the deal.
