Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Bring your kayaks, paddle boards, and floaties. This is a private dry camping lot (.59 acres), with Sevier river frontage, and a permanent shade shelter for your use. (There is also a small storage building on site, not for camping use.) Kids (and of course adults) love this place. But the kids go bonkers over it. After they’ve experienced the lazy river once, they beg to come back, and they can’t get out of the car and run to the water fast enough. Dogs are allowed but must stay within the property boundaries (or river). The river is surprisingly slow and shallow. You can get in from the shore at the camp spot, and float around a ~45 minute loop to a common exit point/walking path that takes you back to camp in 2 minutes. Perfect for kicking back for a long float (over and over again if desired). There is one spot around the bend where you can go in over your head, but most of the river is ankle to waist high when the river is at peak height. For a longer float, its also an option to get in at the bridge further down the frontage road. Then float ~2 hours directly back to your camp. The lot can fit 3-4 RVs comfortably, and multiple tents. Generators are fine. Fires are allowed in the metal fire pit. This is a neighborhood of adjacent privately owned dry camping lots. You'll have this .59 acre lot all to yourself (and your guests), but especially on the weekends there are likely to be campers on the neighboring private lots, all there to enjoy the same camping/river/floating experience. Adjacent to this lot there is neighbor who has some tuff sheds for camping, and on the other side, a rustic dry cabin. RV dump is 5 minutes away at Yuba reservoir.

Riverside RV Camping
We love the lazy river!
We loved camping on Ruth’s land! It’s THE PERFECT location for enjoying the river! The blue shelter was much bigger than we expected and we were able to enjoy just the right mix of sun, water and shade while we were there! The river was a great depth for kids and we just kept going around and around that lazy river. The neighbors were all friendly and Ruth’s access to the entrance and exit is seriously the best there is. Ruth communicated with me beforehand and answered my questions quickly. We’ll definitely stay there again!
