My family - and the families of several good friends - have been visiting River's Bend several times a year for many years and always enjoy our time there. The campground sits in a beautiful location at the juncture of the New Haven River and Otter Creek, is well maintained - including numerous upgrades since the new ownership took over the property - and has hosts who work hard to ensure all their guests are able to enjoy their stay. I'd highly recommend this campground, and look forward to our next stay!
An amazing property with reasonable prices. The river is very clean for swimming. Very safe for children. The new owner is great and has made several improvements.
This is a very nice campground. We went tenting with our family and they love the river, pool, swings and even more the space. They had an spectacular fireworks show due to 4th of July, it was amazing!!! Only thing I do suggest for this camping to be perfect is that they add a bathroom or even a toilet closer to sites5,4,3,2,1, maybe near the trash?? Even a portable toilet helps when small children needs a bathroom at night time or an emergency. The main bathroom is far from these sites. Thank you for having us! We hope to Come back!
Stop to visit. Owner is rude, employee not willing to accommodate us at all! Made it seem to much of a hassle. Most unfriendly campground we have ever seen. Completely disappointed on this visit so we turned around and left Would never bother with this place. Just read your comment! Your so full of yourself playing word games and making up stories. What goes around comes around. You think everyone is out to get you. We traveled a hour and a half to her and see what your campground was like, boy need we get a surprise. A business man that don't know how to treat people. We will pass the word about your character to others as well as we have already have. The truth hurts don't it? Have a good day and move on. May god forgive you and your ways. We were very polite to your staff. You came in as Mr. Macho. And treated us rudely. No wonder why your ratings are dropping. We weren't looking for no free entrance. Just passing by to deliver some gifts. I know my trike would take less space then your golf cart.since I can't walk to far it would have been nice to drive down and park near by and drop her gifts off. But mr. Attitude had to be a rude person and chose to push future customer away. Your lost not ours. Glad we found out before hand.
Went to pick up my kids at 9 am , left about 10:30 and was harassed about trespassing and theft because the front office was not open at 9 am when I came, and apparently not open to guests even tho my mother and children were all camping . Owner texting me harrassing me when though I said I was paying when I left due to the fact they weren’t open when I came through. Texting harrassing me about a 6 dollar fee. That I was going to pay when the office opened at 10 am. I will never be going back there he was rude mean and not cooperative to the fact I was helping my mother pick up and grabbing my kids
