What to Know About Clio's River's Edge RV Park
Updated
Clio's River's Edge RV Park is a seasonal mountain RV resort in Clio, California, open April 15 through October 25. It suits RV travelers who want full hook-ups, river-front setting on the Middle Fork of the Feather River, and access to lakes, fishing streams, golf, and horseback riding — and who can plan around a limited booking window and a no-wood-fires rule. It is not a year-round campground, and monthly stays cannot be booked online.
Location and Season
- Where: Clio, CA, on the Middle Fork of the Feather River, roughly 45 miles north of Truckee, California.
- Season: Open April 15 – October 25. Outside that window, the park is closed.
- Setting: A mountain retreat positioned for outdoor recreation rather than a quick highway stop.
The 45-mile distance from Truckee makes it a reasonable base for travelers coming from the north Lake Tahoe area, but you should treat the drive as a mountain route and plan arrival before dark if you are unfamiliar with the area.
Sites and Amenities
The park describes itself as an award-winning mountain retreat and RV resort with:
| Feature | Detail |
|---|---|
| Sites | 200 sites with full hook-ups |
| Grounds | 30 acres, described as well-maintained |
| Connectivity | WiFi and cable TV |
| Pets | Dog-friendly, with an off-leash dog run |
| Rating | Grade A rating by "Guest Rated" |
Full hook-ups mean water, electric, and sewer at the site, so self-contained RVs and trailers can settle in without relying on shared facilities. The off-leash dog run is a practical plus if you travel with a dog that needs exercise beyond leash walks.
Booking Rules and Office Hours
This is the part most likely to trip up a trip plan:
- Monthly reservations must be booked through the office — not through the online booking flow.
- Office hours:
- Monday – Friday: 9:00 am – 5:30 pm
- Saturday: 10:00 am – 3:00 pm
- Sunday: 9:00 am – 4:00 pm
- Closed daily from noon to 1:00 pm
If you want a monthly stay, call during office hours and have your dates ready. If you are booking a shorter stay, the site's "Book Now" option is the starting point. Because office hours are limited and the park is seasonal, confirm availability before finalizing travel dates rather than assuming a site will be open on arrival.
Policies to Know Before You Arrive
- No wood-burning fires. This is stated directly by the park. Plan for propane fire pits or no fire at all, and check current fire restrictions in the area before your trip, since seasonal rules can tighten further.
- Dog-friendly, with the off-leash run noted above. Keep in mind that other guests and wildlife share the grounds.
- Discount: 10% off for active or retired law officers, military, or firefighters. Ask about applying it when you book, since it is not clear from the site whether it applies automatically online.
Nearby Recreation
The park markets itself around access to:
- Nearly 100 lakes
- About 1,000 miles of fishing streams
- 7 golf courses
- Horseback riding
That combination makes it a fit for anglers, golfers, and riders who want one base for several activities. If your trip is built around a single pursuit — say, fly fishing the Feather River system — the river-front location is the main draw. If you need a full resort-style amenity list (pools, organized activities), this is a simpler, recreation-focused park, so set expectations accordingly.
Who This Park Fits
Good fit if you:
- Travel by RV or trailer with full hook-up needs
- Want a seasonal mountain base near lakes, streams, and golf
- Travel with a dog
- Qualify for the military, law enforcement, or firefighter discount
- Can book within the April–October window and during office hours
Look elsewhere if you:
- Need year-round camping
- Want wood campfires
- Need to book a monthly stay outside office hours or entirely online
- Prefer a park with extensive resort amenities over outdoor access
Practical Checklist
- Confirm your dates fall between April 15 and October 25.
- Decide between a short stay (online booking) and a monthly stay (office booking).
- Call during office hours — avoiding the noon–1 pm closure — for monthly reservations.
- Ask whether the 10% discount applies to your booking and how to claim it.
- Plan for no wood fires and bring a propane fire pit if you want a fire.
- Verify current local fire restrictions close to your travel date.
- Confirm WiFi and cable availability for your specific site if you plan to work from the road.
The park's own listing is the source for the season, site count, policies, hours, and discount; treat those details as the baseline and reconfirm by phone before you commit to a long stay.
