Tent camping at Rivers Bend Resort — Tent camping on the South Fork American River

We are currently updating our Camping Gear Rental Inventory…please check back for updates.

For 1 day clients who want to camp at our South Fork American River Riverside Campground this is available for a $15/person fee. There are toilets and showers on site. Meals are not included but may be available for some groups.

For Yuba River trips we have a private campsite within the National Forest. This is steps away from the river. Camping is primitive with no showers and just port-o-potty toilets. This is where we camp for our overnight trips and additional nights may be available for 1 day trips for a fee.

For other rivers camping is included with the overnight trips, but additional nights are not available as we do not have a base camp in the area. Check the Area Information for your specific river for options.

the Rivers we run

Our vision is to create a sustainable and equitable reality where our rivers are enjoyed and protected, a place where families and friends can be inspired and challenged.

Tributary Whitewater Tours has been running rivers since we were first founded in 1978. Since we opened 40+ years ago we have expanded to include Adventure Connection, Mariah Wilderness Expeditions, High Desert River Outfitters, Canyon Outfitters and are the parent company of Raft California and Raft Oregon. While some things have changed over the years, Tributary remains a family-run small business with the same passion for the river and the mission of leading others to experience it.

Tributary Whitewater Tours is a permitted outfitter under the National Forest Service, the CA Dept. of Parks & Recreation, Nevada County, El Dorado County and Bureau of Land Management. Tributary Whitewater Tours is an Equal Opportunity Service Provider.
