Rising River RV Park

Rising River RV Park

Rising River RV Park is located on the south side of Roseburg, Oregon. While the RV park is located in a bit of a larger city, it is relatively close to the edges of the town. The fall season is a popular time to visit due to the surrounding trees that turn into brighter colors before the leaves fall off for the winter. Rising River RV Park is nestled right near the shores of the South Umpqua River, within walking distance to the edge of the water. Due to its location, the city is placed not far from both the city as well as the surrounding mountains and forests.

About

Rising River RV Park has 90 RV sites and one vacation home rental available on their fourteen acres of land. The River House Vacation Rental is a house along the banks of the onsite river, the South Umpqua River. Large Sequoia trees surround the house and create a natural and outdoorsy setting. Due to the location of the house, guests can find it easier to relax here rather than at an RV site.

Among the features that the vacation home rental has to offer, one will find a private backyard with a covered deck. Essential amenities provided at the campground include free cable, high-speed WiFi, and 30 and 50 AMP electrical stations at the RV sites. When building Rising River RV Park, the owner attempted to make the RV sites as level as possible. There are also storage units and paved streets for guests' convenience. Other amenities at Rising River RV Park include an enclosed gate around the property and full laundry facilities. The establishment also has a recreation building with a pool table, kitchen, books and videos, puzzles, and more. In the recreation building, guests can share books with each other and read what others have been reading. There are features on the grounds of the property such as a double-gated dog run, nature trails for both hiking and biking, fishing in the river, horseshoes, and other games.

The campsite has put together around 30 to 40 brochures that contain information about the vicinity and activities that visitors can enjoy in southern Oregon. A small store that can be found on the property sells a variety of things, including gift shop items, a vast amount of RV parts, ice cream, soda, snacks, ice, and more. Rising River RV Park is centrally located and is about an hour away from the coast of the Pacific Ocean. Several important places that can be found in the area nearby include the Wild Life Safari—which houses many species of animals—Spangler Vineyards, which produces many of the fruits used to craft wine made locally, and the Douglas County Museum of History and Natural History, which goes over the history of the county.

The establishment's goal for the Rising River RV Park is to create a clean environment that is both fun and safe. The campground aims to be more of an "upscale campground" in order to create a safer environment.

These activities include paddle boarding, kayaking, swimming, tubing, and fishing.

Common compliments regarding the property among guest reviews involve mention of clean restrooms, showers, the property's overall maintenance, and the staff. One review reads, "It felt like a real neighborhood with the picnic benches, trees, fences, and grass areas by each spot. The owners were super friendly, and showed us around and helped us when needed. It was right by the river, which was great and a wonderful view. The showers/bathrooms were always clean. There were also small fenced in areas for pets, which was super handy and nice to have."
