E-MAIL QUESTIONS TO riversidecamping@hotmail.com

You can call anytime.  If I'm not in, leave a message.I retired in June 2013 after 41 years teaching and coaching at the local high school, but if the weather is nice I'm probably working outside along the river or in the yard.  I do my best to return calls each evening or sooner.  It's always good to leave an evening phone number even if you call from work during the day.  I'll be glad to help you any way I can even if our place is not what fits your needs. 

We only take reservations by phone.  We only have several overnite sites, so we sometimes book up quickly. I check phone messages each time I come in and I try to check my e-mail every day or so.

If you are on your way here without reservations and can't reach us, you can try calling Kite's Store   (540) 652-8174 .  I usually put the reservation sheet down there for the week we are in.  The store usually closes around 8p.m. and 6 p.m. on Sundays.  There is usually better availability of sites during the week.  Weekends often fill up well in advance.

 We do not require a deposit, but please call if you must cancel.  I may also call you to confirm close to the date you are to arrive.

SOME RULES OF OUR CAMPGROUND:

1.  WE ARE FLEXIBLE ON CHECK IN/ OUT TIMES.  IF SOMEONE IS ON THE SITE OR WAITING ON THE SITE, WE BASICALLY SAY IN OR OUT AT NOON. IF YOU ARE ABLE TO STAY LATER, WE ASK THAT YOU BE OUT BY 4 P.M. REGARDLESS.

2.  QUIET TIME IS 10:30 FOR EVERYONE!!  PLEASE ABIDE BY THIS.  WE ALSO ASK YOU TO BE MINDFUL OF YOUR NEIGHBORS AT ALL TIMES WHEN IT COMES TO NOISE, MUSIC, ETC.  MANY PEOPLE COME HERE FOR PEACE AND QUIET.  AND NOT EVERYONE LIKES THE SAME MUSIC!

3. PETS ARE ALLOWED BUT KEEP THEM LEASHED AND WITH YOU AND DO NOT LET THEM DISTURB OTHERS AROUND YOU. CLEAN UP AFTER THEM.  (I GUESS THE SAME APPLIES TO CHILDREN!) DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO PLAY OR LOITER AT BATHROOMS. A DOG BITE CAN LEAD TO MULTIPLE PROBLEMS FOR YOU AND YOUR DOG!

5.  WE STILL PROVIDE FIREWOOD WITH CAMP FEE, BUT PLEASE BE CONSERVATIVE SO WE CAN CONTINUE TO DO THIS.  DO NOT BURN A FIRE 24HRS A DAY JUST TO HAVE A FIRE.

6.  THE RIVER CAN LOOK INVITING, BUT IT CAN BE DANGEROUS TO PEOPLE (AND PETS) BECAUSE OF SHARP ROCKS, TRASH OR DEBRIS THAT HAS GATHERED ON THE BOTTOM, ETC. BACTERIA IN THE RIVER CAN ALSO CAUSE HEALTH PROBLEMS!! SWIM OR WADE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

7.  PAYMENT IS EXPECTED AT CHECK-IN.  CASH OR PERSONAL CHECK W/ ID.  WE ARE NOT EQUIPPED TO TAKE CREDIT CARDS. THE STORE IS A SEPARATE BUSINESS---WE JUST HELP EACH OTHER OUT.

8.  PLEASE CALL ASAP IF YOU HAVE TO CANCEL.  MORE AND MORE THAT HAS BECOME A PROBLEM.  ALL I ASK IS FOR A SIMPLE CALL, ESPECIALLY SINCE I DON'T CHARGE A DEPOSIT!
