My wife and I stayed there in the middle of the week in one of the hottest periods of the year. We did have partial shade from the sun. The pool was great for the fact that it was four feet deep. All sites were graveled with their own picnic tables. The four restrooms and showers were very clean. You could walk to the first levee and watch towboats gping up and down the Mississippi River. We would definitely stay there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

All gravel roads in park. We tried calling office twice to help with directions and did not receive an answer or call back. Arrived at 5:30 PM and help was still working but said they were too busy to answer our call a few hours earlier. NO cable hook up at our site. Overall a nice place but the only one in the area except for the state park 10 miles away. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Rate is a Passport America rate. Popular park right on the Mississippi River. Packed gravel roads lead to sites that are level, spacious paved pull-thrus with plenty of room for RV and towee or toad. Pool, hot tub, bathrooms and laundry clean. Laundry is a bit expensive but they are double and triple- load washers. They do need to put in some regular single-load ones. Internet connection is “iffy” but there is a computer in the lodge room. We enjoyed watching the barges go up and down the river. You can walk along a paved walkway all the way from the campground to the convention center under the bridges. Town of Vidalia doesn’t have a lot to offer but a short drive across the bridge takes you to Natchez, MS with it’s many pre-Civil War mansions and estates. We would most definitely recommend this park and would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed 1 week. The park honored our Passport America discount for the first 3 nights and our Escapees discount for the last 4 nights. It is quiet, conveniently located for access to Natchez sightseeing, and we really enjoyed watching the barge traffic on the Mississippi River. The Wi-Fi in our section was down due to high water where the booster is located. Lower section of the park does get flooding when the Mississippi is high; no danger to RV sites! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice park that is right on the river. Most of the sites are paved pull throughs with grass in between. Plenty of areas to walk including a beautiful walkway right along the river. Staff is very helpful, we had a problem with our 50 amp breaker and someone was there in 5 minutes to fix it. Only negative is that the interior roads could use some work. Nice place for some R&R. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was our second visit. We had a weekly rate (Good Sam) which was 6 nights with 1 night free! It's a very nice park with a great view of the Mississippi from the front row. I was annoyed by the fact that I requested a front row (river view)site but was told they were all booked. During our stay sites were continually opening and transients in and out. I booked a month in advance for two weeks. Not again! Gravel roads were very dusty. Police patrolled frequently which is at first comforting then begins to be worrisome. WiFi was spotty to non existent. The pool is very nice. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great park. We stayed 4 nights. The river was a pleasure to see. There is a lovely concrete walkway that goes along the river a great distance. Only two things to improve our stay were more garbage cans to dispose of pet bags, and no cable tv available on the side we stayed. A short drive to the town of Natchez made it conventient to visit. We would stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Loved staying at this park on the River! This clean, well-maintained park has several perks ... paved sites with grass on sides, almost all pull-thrus, picnic table, trash pick-up daily, pool and spa, and terrific staff. Sites are not too close together. Appreciated having a free computer with internet in the clubhouse for guests' use; needed it when our Verizon "wi-fi air card" got no reception here. Outstanding clubhouse, with separate facilities for rally groups. Well-stocked store. Used camping club discount so price was great. Many parks put camping club discount campers in the back; we had a river-view site! We'd stay here again in a heart beat! We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were lucky to get into this park due to refugees from hurricane Ike. Linda in the office was able to get us a spot. Really appreciated this. Cable only had 6 or 7 stations. Kind of limited for cable. Wifi was ok if you were close enough to the office. We were luckily. Easy access to highway and nice view of the Ms River. We would stay here again but would prefer a concrete site. Again, we were lucky just to get in. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is our third time staying at this campground, and like the previous two, it was a very pleasant experience. The park is very clean, the pool area and bath houses are kept up very nicely and the staff is very helpful and friendly. The only negative would be the lack of shaded sites and the crushed limestone access roads. Ok, the trees would take a long time to grow, but the roads? They are difficult to walk or ride your bike on, noisy and dusty. This campground would get a "10" if it weren't for the roads. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

The staff was very friendly on arrival. When I called to make the reservation, I was asked if we had any discount cards, specifically Passport America. We do have PA, and when we checked in we were given 2 nights at the PA rate, and the 3rd at the Escapee discount rate, a pleasant surprise. The south half is still closed due to flooding but the north half was open with lots of available sites. At least half of the sites are satellite friendly, but the free WiFi isn't very usable away from the office. During the first night, we have torrential rains and thunderstorms, but the power never dropped out and the water was drained off by morning. The views of the river are great from every site. Very convenient to Natchez. We would stay here again and will recommend it to our friends. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Riverview is right. You are right on the Mississippi. While we were there the river was in flood stage. It had crested but one side of the park was under water. There was no sewer, laundry, or dump station due to the river at flood. The roads were gravel, the pads concrete. The "club house was great, the staff was great. The bugs were tough. The staff fogged for them but the problem was caused by the flooded river. I would stay there again in a "New York minute" We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice park in a great location. Unfortunately, the Mississippi was flooding during our stay. The sewer system had begun leaking the day before and had been shut down, so no full hook ups, no showers, & no laundry available. Clean port-a-potties had been brought in. The management tried to contact us, but we were already in route. We did get a 15% discount due to the limited facilities. We were put in the north end of the park due to flooding in the south end. It looked like the RV sites in the south end were the premium sites. I note they are the ones that have cable. The staff was friendly. Wifi was available from our site since it was near the office. There is a nice lighted walk along the river all the way to the Natchez highway bridge. The river was lapping at its edge. Too bad. Under different circumstances, this would be quite a nice park. I recommend it for visiting the historic Natchez area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Riverview RV Park is one of our favorite parks. It sits right on the Mississippi River across from Natchez, Mississippi. You can see tow boats pushing barges up and down the river from your RV. The campground sits about 1 mile south of the Mississippi River bridge that crosses over to Natchez. The city of Vidalia has built a lovely park along the river that stretches from the bridge down to the campground. This is a wonderful place for a walk along the river. Our dog especially enjoyed walking there. Most of the campground sites are on level concrete pads. All have 30 or 50 amp service. The sites south of the office have cable hook ups although there is a very limited selection of channels. Free Wi-fi is available in the office and can be picked up by a few sites closest to the office. The interior roads are slate gravel which can produce gray dust when the area is dry. The office has a very clean but small laundry with 3 oversize washers (2 @ $2.50/load and 1 at $3.50). There are 4 dryers @ 7-8 minutes per quarter. The individual bathrooms with showers are very clean. The staff is outstanding - very friendly and helpful. By all means tour some of the antebellum homes in Natchez such as Rosalie, Melrose and especially Longwood. We enjoyed attending the Vidalia Presbyterian Church. The folks in this small historic church were very warm and friendly. Ask about the story of its being moved in 1930. Dr Gregg and the staff at Gregg Veterinary service were wonderful in caring for our pet while in Vidalia. Likewise Dr Gregg and the staff at Gregg Dentistry (The two Dr Gregg’s are brothers.) were wonderful when I had a dental emergency. We enjoyed pizza and other food from Sonny’s Pizza, the hamburgers from Jerry’s, country food and friendly service at Nikki’s, the BBQ at the Pig Out Inn and an excellent dinner at the Pearl Street Pasta . We camped here in a Motorhome.

Our site was close to the office and we had good Internet. The term "cable TV" should not be used to describe the TV service in this park. ESPN and the Weather Channel were good but the others were at best marginal. The view of the river was fairly good and made the stay quite interesting. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very nice campground that can be either a short stay, or destination campground. The sites are all concrete and the roads are gravel. The gravel roads are the one negative for this campground. The gravel is large and sharp and makes a poor walking surface for people and dogs. Hookups are good. The cable TV has only a few channels. Wifi is available for part of the campground close to the office/clubhouse. The wifi in the office/clubhouse is excellent. It is available in the laundry 24 hours per day even if the office is closed. We highly recommend this campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Pretty much as other posters have described. A unique location right on the river. Free wi-fi was excellent, but if you need it, request a site near the office. Not too many trees on the sites, but a few spots were shaded. Cable TV had very limited number of channels. Nice concrete pads for most sites, alternating with some grass spots that dont seem to be used unless the park gets crowded. Lots of space, especially during off season. Nice shaded kids play area. A Good Sam park, but be prepared for an added tax of about 15% over the base price. LA really likes to soak the tourists. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Pretty nice CG. Most sites alternate between concrete pad and grass. When we were here, few chose the grass so there was plenty of space between sites. If there were RVs on the grass next to us, the sites would be pretty close. Sites were level and easy to get in. Roads were the heavy (sharp) gravel, with some pot holes. Park was clean and essentially well kept up. There were burrs most everywhere (including the pet runs) so Fido didn't much like that. You could see the river traffic from sites around 100 to 112. Park was in a slightly seedy area, but we didn't feel any security menace. No highway noise, but there was some kind of a processing plant nearby that produces a low "moaning" sound (ie: a blower), somewhat annoying at night. Cable TV had only 8 channels. WiFi was spotty, but of course, better buy the office. There was nothing to do in Vidalia, but Natchez was just across the river with much more to see. We would come back if the opportunity arose. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Pull through sites are concrete surfaced and long enough to accomodate tow vehicle without unhooking. WiFi is reported weak however we had no trouble half way down the row from the clubhouse. Grass all around the sites and an easy walk to the river edge to view the barge traffic. Cable TV has very limited number of channels, however lack of trees allowed easy satellite antenna lock-on. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice park right on the Mississippi River. You do come thru a little rough neighborhood, but no problems. Very nice river walk next to the park, but NO bikes, we got reminded by the local law enforcement.

The main attraction to this park is the fact that it is right on the Mississippi. Not much shade. Hate to think what summers are like. Clean, with adequate but not spacious sites. We spent 3 nights & would do it again if only to sit on the levee & watch the river traffic go by. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We loved Riverview RV Park. We have spent the last 2 Thanksgivings there and had a great time. The Christmas lights are up on the riverwalk and you can see the riverboats as they go down the Mississippi River. Not a lot of things to do for the kids but if you like to just relax this is the place to go. We will go back this year again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Stayed 4 nights and had a great time. The park is well run and clean. The water, sewer, electric, and cable TV connections were easy and worked well. There aren't a lot of channels provided on the cable TV. Almost all sites are pull through and large enough for a camper or motor home and 1 vehicle. There are no trash cans in the park so you put your trash bags out each morning and the park staff drive around and picks them up. The pool looked well maintained but I didn't swim on this visit. WiFi internet only works on the spaces closest to the office so you might plan on taking a laptop computer and sit around the pool. The river walk is well lit and everyone I met along the river was friendly. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Excellent view of the Mississippi river from our living room window. The sites are fairly large with concrete pads and patios. The utilities worked very well. The park is very convenient to Natchez, Miss. The access to the park goes through a few blocks of substandard housing. The roads to the park are adequate for the largest units. The resident managers have many years of rv experience and know how to run the park effectively. This was a very positive experience. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The positive things about this park were: level and wide sites with concrete pads, lighted hookup pedestals, scenic view along the Mississippi, pet walk area, children's playground area, very clean and modern laundry and office area and clean showering area. The negative things about this park were: lack of shade trees and all-gravel roads. Our $23 average rate was due to PA discount for the first night and GS discount for the second. We stayed 2 nights and would gladly return here if we're ever in Louisiana again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Just an update for 2007. I strongly agree with all previous positive comments and view the negative ones as overly subjective and just a bit picky. Can’t comment on the reservation process as we arrived without one. The clubhouse is the best I’ve ever seen: lots of space, info brochures, computer with internet and printer, strong WIFI, big cable TV, comfortable new furniture, fridge, free coffee and great staff. The other big draw is the spotless rest rooms: each of the four of them is good-sized and just like home, with your own shower, toilet, sink etc. The only reason I can’t give it a 10 is that there are no picnic tables on the sites, causing one to kneel before the portable barbeque god to make dinner. Rate shown is for Passport America; Good Sam rate is $ 29 and regular rate is $ 33 (taxes included.) Highly recommended to all who visit this fun area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Cannot rate a 10 because of the 2007 report but we found frozen but neatly cut grass, frozen landscaping and the nicest employees of any RV Park we've stayed at. They made sure we were comfortable with plenty of water and did their absolute best to make sure that we enjoyed our stay in their very unseasonable cold weather. We will make it a point to return here for a longer stay(when it's warmer!)The view and location is beautiful, all appeared spotless and employees fantastic! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We were very impressed with the overall cleanliness of the park, office and pool area. I found the staff to be very courteous and helpful. However, I was very disappointed with the reservation process. I called at least two weeks in advance to make reservations and requested a shady site. The lady informed me that site #42 was very shady (although it turned out not to be) and that it was a concrete pull-through with complete hookups. The day after completing the reservations I stumbled across the rv review website and noticed that customers had encountered problems with their reserved site being changed. I immediately called River View and spoke to the same attendant and voiced my concerns about being changed and she informed me that she wrote "do not move" next to my reservation. When we arrived I was told that we would be on site #40-B, a grass site that had no sewer. I informed the attendant that I had site #42 reserved and asked why I had been moved. Her only answer was that they had made a mistake. I have NEVER had this problem before at any other park but it seems to be a recurring one at River View. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Not a bad campground but could easily be a great campground. The positives are big and well-maintained bathhouses, nice big pool and hot tub, really nice clubhouse and camp store. It also has a great view of the river and a smooth, well-lit walkway along the river that goes all the way into the town of Vidalia. Negatives are very few shady sites and the crushed rock roads are loud and dusty. Paving the roads would go a long way in making this a great campground. Will camp here again, just not in the summer, too hot and dusty. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

We stayed a weekend here, and it was ok. After we called and made reservations and were able to get a "riverfront" site, I looked at the reviews here and noticed that one of the complaints was that they would move you to a different site. So I called the next morning and asked not to be moved, even if I needed to go ahead and pay in advance for the site. I was told that they would mark "do not move" by our reservation. Well when we arrived, guess what, they had moved us. And the site was really no different, it was 110 instead of 105, but it was just the principal of the thing. I just like for people to keep their word! After reading the reviews on this site, we were under the impression that you could ride bikes on the RiverWalk. Well, there is a big sign, No Bikes, No skates, No skateboards. So if your family is into biking and skating, this is not the campground for you. The roads are the real big gray gravel, that is not fun to ride bikes in. The Riverwalk is a beautiful walking trail, and the pool and hot tub were very nice. We enjoyed the history of Natchez, and the food. But we probably won't be returning to this campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We love the park and have been there twice a year for the past 4 years. It is conveniant for visiting my wife's family. But the last time we were there the rates had gone up to over 30 dollars for the river view sites which was an increase of 6 dollars from the last time we were there and like some others have posted the wifi is poor and the cable TV is terrible for a park that size. For what you pay now the services need to improve. I was very disappointed. Other parks that charge what they are now charging provide better services. We will probably continue going there because there is not another place in the area as close as it is for our requirements. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We had two sites, with 60' level concrete pads. I agree with the positive comments already listed. I would have rated it higher if it had free WiFi and paved roads. The interior roads in our area were very deep loose gravel, but caused no problem. It is in a perfect location for those visiting the area. We will return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

One of the best parks we have stayed in. Big sites. On the banks of the Mississippi River.
We could watch barges being pushed up and down the river from our site. DSL connection on the lodge. They are a Passport America park, so our cost was
$13.59/night, including tax. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We evacuated to River View RV Park in Vidalia, La. for Hurricane Rita. We had never been there before. We found it in the Trailer Life Campground Book. The folks there were absolutely wonderful to us. The campground was totally booked with every overflow space available also filled. The staff kept the club house open all night for several nights; they went out and got sandwiches, doughnuts, coffee, games for the kids, anything they thought we might need as hundreds of us sat around watching Hurricane Rita tear up our community. The staff was so compassionate and helpful, yet very professional. By the way, the campground was beautiful & the area was very interesting. When all of the clean-up is finally done, we will definitely be going back to River View RV Park for a "real vacation"! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very inviting place to stay. Friendly and helpful employees. Restrooms and showers are very clean. Close to downtown Natchez and many historical sites. Campsites are clearly marked, and clean. Peaceful atmosphere always with a wonderful view of the Mississippi river. This park gets an A+ in my book. I will be a return visitor and I recommend this park to anyone whether staying for a night or for a week. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a fantastic campground to stay in if you want to see the sights in Natchez, Mississippi. It is so convenient! It is located in Vidalia right at the foot of the Mississippi River Bridge which connects to downtown Natchez. You just hop on the bridge, drive about 30 seconds, and then turn left into the parking lot for the Natchez Visitors Center. You can easily access all the sites in Natchez in under 10 minutes. Regarding the campground, the sites are level and paved and the interior roads are gravel. There are large grassy areas between the sites and the Mississippi River for the kids to play on. There is an extremely nice 2 mile paved riverwalk which takes you from the campground, along the river, and under the bridge. It's great for an evening stroll, a morning jog, or for skating or riding bikes. There are not many mature trees, though. The campground was very clean, there is trash pick-up every morning, there are lots of friendly employees, and a nice pool with a large covered area. Overall, it is very picturesque, and you can tell Vidalia is proud of the campground and the Riverwalk. As far as Natchez goes, we just had a great trip with two families and kids ranging from 5 to 14. We did the guided bus tour and movie at the visitors' center. We enjoyed an afternoon snack of tamales, nachos and delicious margaritas at Fat Mama's Tamales which I think was on Canal. We toured one of the antebellum homes, Melrose, and the kids were enthralled. Our favorite memory was, by far, dinner at the King's Tavern on Jefferson St. in Natchez. The King's Tavern is supposedly the oldest building in Natchez, and, perhaps, in Mississippi. It has a reputation for being haunted and for having fantastic prime rib! If you have a large group, request the private dining room upstairs. Our waiter, Tom, entertained the kids with lots of stories about the history of the building and the city. At the end of the meal, we were able to tour the various historical features of the restaurant. The kids loved it and the food was well priced and delicious. I would have given the campground a 10 if it had cable. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A superb RV Park. Very well-planned. Easily accessed sites, big rig friendly, very accomodating people, and really a great place with a great view of the Mississippi River. I would have given it a 10 but, although most sites are paved, the roads are gravel and are very dusty. Overall, however, a great place. If you ask for Sites 100 and higher you will get a better view of the Mississippi. We camped here in a Motorhome.

After reading all the great reviews before this, I was really expecting a very special CG. But I will say I was sadly disappointed in quite a few ways. 1. \ I called over six weeks ahead requested and was assigned a CONCRETE PULL THRU SITE. But when I arrived at 1 pm on Sunday afternoon the office was closed. They had posted a list of campsites and I was given a grass site that was very unlevel. Apparently they moved me for a rally that was coming in the next night. Later, when I went to check in, Linda did offer to move me to a site back by the dumpster, which by the way was full to the brim and trash scattered all around the base. I said no thanks and kept the grass site. Linda said a "new" person had made my reservation and should have put "do not move" by my name. So beware what you are told might not be what you end up with. One other note there are about 35% grass sites and 65% concrete in the south section. The north side was closed for some sewer repairs and was not being used at this time. 2. The general upkeep of the grounds needs some attention, besides the aforementioned trash around the dumpster, there are quite a few tree limbs overhanging the road and that made it difficult to manuver my 38' Motorhome without scraping some branches. Also the grass was very tall and looked like it had not been cut in well over a month. 3. The roads are a made of large gravel that is uneven and rough. In certain areas it is very hard to walk and nearly impossible if not dangerous to ride a bicycle on. However the good news is the pool was beautiful, and the check in area and restrooms were also very nice. Extremely quiet park with no road noise. The town of Natchez, it's friendly people, wonderful food, the Natchez Trace, and the view of the Misissippi river however rate a 10+. So I had to settle for an overall 7 on my rating. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We loved the riverfront location of this park. Watching the barges travel up and down the Mississippi river was the best part of our stay. We also enjoyed a tour of antebellum homes in Natchez, MS across the river. The restrooms/showers in the park were clean, private and heated. One complaint - the Passport America website says they honor one night in March, when I called to make the reservation I was told that Passport America would be good for one night but when we checked in we were told that Passport America is not honored in March. Not very much money involved but rather annoying nonetheless. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park is on banks of Mississippi river, great view. Park is new and very clean. Roads are gravel and most sites are cement. Playground equipment for kids, nice pool, and day room. Sites are on 45 deg. to road. Staff was nice at check in. Cable TV on south end of park only. Natchez, MS across the river. Shade trees, not a lot to park under. Park is out of passport system at this time. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This looked like to be a fairly new park, Office, pool, restrooms are spotless. It right across the bridge from Natchez,MS (2-3mi). They are a Passport America campground. I made the reservations a month in advance and told her we were passport american members at that time. Office closes early, between 5-6pm. We arrived when she was closing. She assigned us to a site and said we could officially check in the next morning. Which we did, and were advised that the site we were on was a Premium WaterView site (Only 4-6 in Park) and would not qualify for Passport America Discount. Of course we didn't want to hook backup and move everything, so we stayed and Paid $27.00nt + Tax instead of $13nt PPA. It is a very nice park, the staff is very friendly, it is usually very windy, since it is on the "Ole Mississippi" so they advise not to leave awnings left out, when you are not there. Make sure when you check in that you are assigned the site you asked for. We Will stay here again, but will confirm type of site upon reservation AND at checkin. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is by far the nicest campground that I have ever stayed in. Almost all sites are
concrete and pullthrough. It is located right on the Mississippi river across from Natchez, MS. A riverwalk has recently been added as well as a road for
cars. Can't say enough about this park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a well managed RV park containing most of the amenities anyone would expect of a
modern campground such as a store, private baths, pool, hot tub, 24 hr laundry, and modem hookups. It is Big Rig friendly with large concrete pull through sites and full hookups. All are 50/30/20 Amp. The lounge is large and comfortable with a fireplace and large picture windows affording a view of the covered patio, the pool, hot tub and the Mississippi beyond. It contains a large TV/VCR, VCR tapes, books, magazines, games, a small kitchen and a large tropical fish tank. The friendly helpful staff offers authentic warm Southern Hospitality It is a beautiful setting along the Mississippi River with an adjoining 3 mile river walk. There are many nearby restaurants and attractions. There is a shuttle available to the Isle of Capri Casino in Natchez, and one cannot forget all of the Antebellum Home tours in Natchez.
I return here 2 times a year, it is one of my favorite stops. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The primary touring attraction is Natchez, MS. This is a brand new park and well constructed. The swimming pool is still in the planning stages. Mostly concrete pads (some alternate concrete & grass so you will only get grass if they a very full). Some parts are shaded and some open. Very nice club house and facilities. There is cable hookup but only for surrounding area TV stations We camped here in a camper.
