About Riversidecedar Campground
Riversidecedar Campground offers a serene setting for those looking to experience nature up close. Though marketed with picturesque river views and tranquil natural surroundings, recent guests have shared varying experiences. Reviews indicate that while the campground staff is highly praised for their friendliness and helpfulness, several aspects of the campground itself need significant improvements.
Tips for a Better Stay:
- Privacy Concerns: Many campsites lack adequate privacy due to limited tree coverage, so consider bringing additional shelter or materials to create a more secluded space.
- Sanitation Facilities: Be prepared for shared restroom facilities that may not always be well-maintained. Bringing personal hygiene supplies, including toilet paper, might be a good idea.
- Firewood Costs: Firewood is quite expensive on-site, and external firewood isn't allowed. Plan your budget accordingly.
- Noise Levels: Due to proximity to train tracks, bring earplugs to ensure a better night's sleep.
- Waterfront Views: Take the advertised waterfront views with a grain of salt, as they may not match expectations.
- Beach Conditions: The beach area is often described as swampy and crowded, so plan other activities.
- Additional Vehicles: There are extra charges for additional vehicles, so try to carpool if possible.
Overall Thoughts
While Riversidecedar Campground has potential with its friendly staff and natural appeal, it appears to need significant maintenance and service improvements to meet guest expectations fully. For a more enjoyable experience, take note of the tips shared by previous visitors.

Any good review here is a bold faced LIE! Our “riverside” premium campsite had no river view. The toilets reeked of rotten eggs and one is shared for the entire campground. I hope you enjoy camping with strangers because there is 0 privacy and the boundaries of each site are iffy at best. If you are going to ignore the reviews and stay here, bring shelter as many campsites may as well be in a soccer field. The water at the beach was swampy and alarming that another review was posted during our stay that the beach was closed due to bacteria?? But there were people in and around the water. Be prepared to pay $10.99 for wood that may as well be kindling (yes we made sure we got the wood bag and not kindling). The only good thing about this park is the people working here who are friendly and accommodating .

We stayed in the Hummingbird cabin this past week. Unfortunately this was not what we expected. The views of the river are so different from Chrysler Marina. As the picture shows the tree is our water view. Only cabin with a view is Chickadee. The bathrooms were not maintained for two days running out of toilet paper on a long weekend is not okay.( I always bring an emergency stash) The lots across from my cabin where family members stayed were disgusting to rent out. No privacy, people trodding through their lot, no safe place for a fire, no trees. I've posted pictures so you have a better idea.

It is a very nice place but A lot of work need to be done . You can feel a lot of negligence. The beach is not prepared for swimming, not cleaned and a lot algae and grass. In a big area there is only one bathroom that you need to drive your car to go shower or toilette.

I don't typically give bad reviews... But DAMN, I can't not inform the next unsuspecting victim. I drove such a long way to camp here and it was such a huge disappointment. First thoughts pulling up to the campground were "NO, THIS CAN'T BE IT" followed by laughing so hard we cried because really, what other options do you have at that point. You've already committed to the stay. Let's start with the pro (yes, singular): Every staff member I had an interaction with was superb, they were all friendly and helpful! Whoever is doing the hiring, keep it up because your staff saved it. We ended up switching our campsite to another that was available (197 is the only campsite I saw that I would recommend- although our tent and car were immediately swarmed by spiders to making a snuggly home) and the man who helped me switch made the process very simple and was as helpful and honest as he could be, thank you so much! Cons: TRAIN. HORNS. ALL NIGHT. Bring your earplugs! 🫠🙃 Almost every single campsite is completely visible to everyone around you. There are no trees to give you any sort of privacy. If you like brushing elbows with a stranger while camping, defo recommend. Any campsite that says it has a waterfront view. LIE. If you enjoy a good ol' 7 foot grass/reed wall view then maybe this is the place you've been looking for. These sites are also extra $$ which is insane considering the misleading descriptions of their sites. Firewood is rather expensive. Typically, we try to buy the wood from the park we stay in but it's not worth it here. Beach area is extremely tiny and a little swampy. Time to rub some more elbows whilst you beach it up. All in all would never go back, do not recommend.

Very disappointed with our stay at Riverside cedar campground. We had the most beautiful sight and it was quite private it was site 197. However you are charged extra if you have a second vehicle and the cost of firewood is ridiculous you are also not allowed to bring your own firewood in The first night was nice and peaceful on a Thursday however the next evening on Friday there was a large group who parked three trailers in the site next to ours. They had at least five large trucks and about 15 to 20 people on their site to till least 2:00am and there supposed to be a six person maximum and all guests are supposed to leave by 9:00pm.this was the first weekend I was taking my kids tent camping. One of the neighbors came stumbling upon our site and my husband found him just outside of the kids tent at 1:00am in the morning. They were doing karaoke and banging loud drums till at least 2:00 a.m. we complained to the park ranger two times and after the second time we made him call the opp. The park ranger then told us he was going to evict them in the morning and ban them from ever coming back. These people were still there for three nights they were never banned and I believe they were never ask to go home. This completely ruined my kids first night tent camping and I'm extremely upse.
