I just read a number of negative reviews about the Riverside Resort, so I though that I would chime in with a positive one. We have been staying at this resort every summer for over 6 years with our daughters. We drive up from Seattle, pulling our 16' camper. The campsites are nicer that what I have experienced at almost every other RV park, but it still is an RV park. I once saw a gentlemen get irate that it wasn't more natural. There is a river on one side and the road to Pemberton on the other, with power lines overhead. It's not like it is supposed to be some campground in a national park, and even those are crowded and have no services. Once we park and set up, we never drive the car again until we depart, because the Valley bike trail is right behind us. We ride out bikes everywhere. The small store is convenient and the Riverside Cafe serves amazing food. We eat breakfast there every morning. It is one of the local's secret places to eat. Try staying anywhere else in Whistler for this price and this convenience. Yes, the wifi is poor, but you are supposed to be camping and enjoying the outdoors! I would happily suggest that people stay here and can not wait to return again next summer with my family.
