Review & FAQ:

A part of the larger Buckskin State Park and located on the Arizona banks of the Colorado River, River Island State Park is a popular spot for camping as most of its 37 tent campgrounds overlook the water. The park has decent amenities with a lovely sandy beach in a charming secluded cove, a boat launch, and a picnic area with a pavilion.

There are miles of hiking trails and access to the back-country road for off-road vehicles. The views of the mountains along the trail are magnificent. The park is used all year round because of Arizona’s mild weather, especially for fishing.
