Why Choose River Vista RV Park?
A Riverfront RV Park near Tampa for Active Adults
Come to relax and explore what makes River Vista RV Park so special.
Unlike Tampa RV resorts, River Vista offers a natural setting rich to soak up the best of Florida. Guests enjoy waterfront access with a boat ramp. Launch from the ramp and fish for snook and trout. Kayak Little Manatee River or cruise toward Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico on your pontoon boat straight from the RV park shores.
Stay on land and enjoy your visit poolside. A heated swimming pool is just one of the amenities at this pet–friendly RV resort including pickleball courts, a fitness center, and a community center. Spend your evening fireside watching the sunset during community barbecues and happy hour.
River Vista RV Park offers more than 400 sites including full hook-ups options and large concrete pads. Book a stay, find your escape, and see why many snowbirds buy a vacation cottage and stay.
Exploring Along Little Manatee River & Beyond
No matter your interest, River Vista RV Park caters to every escape year-round. The Tampa area’s beautiful Gulf Coast weather allows guests to enjoy Mother Nature all year.
The pristine blackwaters of the Little Manatee River are a draw for many RV travelers.
