Our gift is
gratitude!
What accommodations are available now?
Currently, Riverdance offers nightly and extended stay reservations for full hook-up RV & van sites. Tiny cottages are coming, too! Currently available Nightly accommodations include full-hook-up (back-in or pull-through) RV sites. If you’re interested in an extended stay, we urge you to complete an application.
Our vision for Riverdance will transform the property into a fun, “national-parky” environment with unique accommodations that embody a warm, fuzzy feeling you get on chill Sunday afternoon.
What accommodations will be available soon?
Little Red Riding Hood ditched the “too big” and “too small” for “just right”. She professed the “Tiny Life” was for her. Is it for you? In the future, Riverdance will make tiny cottages available for your enjoyment! If you haven’t already, join our waitlist to get up to speed on everything tiny cottage-related at our park, first.
Public service announcement (not promoted in any way): Tiny cottages will be released in batches, so it’s important you get your golden ticket, Wonka-style. Take a moment to secure your place in line!
Do you accept online booking, debit and credit cards?
Yes, we do! In fact, we praise the digital savvy who book online and settle up via debit or credit card. You’re efficient, decisive, and play as hard as you work, then rest harder. We love that.
As a reflection of our love for the digital savvy, we tried to make reservations easy. All guests are able to pay with a credit and/or debit card at any time within our online reservation system, if this is your payment preference. The majority of our guests enjoy the seamless, online checkout, and we hope you do as well! In the event you’d like to speak with someone from our team, please e-mail support@riverdancepark.com for nightly and extended stays, or stay@riverdancepark.com for tiny cottage questions.
Do you offer contactless check-in/out?
We’re proud to make things easy on our guests. No heavy lifting, no small talk (unless you want to), check-in and out at your leisure with complete contactless check-in-and-out.
If you need assistance on site, you may contact our team at any time, 24/7/365. Otherwise, enjoy independence and the solitude of the wonderful nature that surrounds you.
Which amenities are available now?
Currently, Riverdance offers warm showers, clean bathrooms, flat and stable pads, and coin operated laundry to keep your favorite threads at the top of their figurative game. A Colorado beach with private river access is also available for awesome days along the Eagle River in any season.
As a peek into the future, disc golf, general store & mercantile, food truck friday, bouldering playgrounds, outdoor theater, scenic river outlook, among other things…are all improvements we are considering based on feedback from guests. Get excited! The new Riverdance is going to blow your socks off.
What park rules should I be aware of?
Rules, rules, they’re good for your heart, the more you hear, the more you…oh, wait, how does that tune go? Rules are less fun, but intended to create a repeatably awesome experience for all of our guests, all year-round.
In the name of fostering positivity, good vibes and great adventure, please adhere to our park’s rules and regs. Be mindful of bears, deers, beavers and tigers. They are real. And, maybe here.
Are lifeguards present along the beach?
No lifeguards are on duty, and there’s a chance you could share the river with more than a beautiful trout.
Ahem…bear…be on the lookout for your little ones as all guests enjoy the river at their own risk and leisure. Be safe, and have fun!
Am I able to access the Eagle River from the property?
You know it, country club. Riverdance offers breathtaking Eagle River access. Experience privacy and adventure that’s only limited by your imagination. And, what our liability insurance will cover. There’s rules for that. Please follow them for your safety, and ours.
Bears rule, lifeguards do too, but be on the lookout cause no one’s watching you!
Who do I contact if I need help during my stay?
Our team has lightning fingers, tactile thumbs, and access to email at all times of the day. We respond most quickly to emails. If you need anything at all, ever, please e-mail support@riverdancepark.com, or leave us a voicemail at (970) 400 – 7078.
In the event of a life-threatening emergency, we urge our guests to call 911 for immediate support. Do right by your neighbors…if you see something suspicious, please report it to our team or the authorities immediately.
Do you allow fishing, tubing, and other river activities?
Yes, we encourage you to live your best #riverlife.
That includes getting in all the catch-and-release fishing, tubing, SUPing, kayaking and river-lounging your heart desires. You might just fall in love (like we did)!
Are you open year-round?
Yes, we are open year-round, all four seasons, 365 days a year. Snow or shine, hike or ski, we hope you’ll come check out the Rockies from Riverdance, you see.
So, enjoy your best day with us at Riverdance, it’ll be a hell of a time (week…month…party)!
How do I join the Tiny Cottage waitlist?
Drumroll…please…we are so thrilled to receive an abundance of community interest and support for our future tiny cottage accommodations. We’re in the final innings of bringing our first batch of tiny cottage to the property.
Feeling FOMO? We get it, our team recommends those interested to join our waitlist. It could be the start of something beautiful.
How do I confirm the location of my site?
Trip booked! Now, what? Please check your e-mail and reference the reservation link provided, which includes your reserved site number. Once your site number is handy, please reference our property map. If you have any questions, our team is here!
We also know this is not as easy as it should be, and will be addressing your experience in the near future. E-mail support@riverdancepark.com at any time for additional clarification. An interactive map is coming online and on-site. For now, be “beartastic” and reach out with any questions, please and thanks!
Do you offer discounts for military, veterans or RV memberships?
Woop, woop, discounts! We rarely discount rates at Riverdance, as we already do our best to provide the fairest prices in the Vail Valley. But, as an additional salute to our active or retired military veterans with a valid ID, we’ve got you covered with a 10% discount on nightly reservations.
No discounts are available for extended stays, currently! Thank you again for your service!
RV best practices for winter months?
Brrrrrrrrrr…no one wants to deal with frozen pipes. To enhance your winter experience with us, please ensure you have a heated hose that remains connected to the hydrant. No one likes a cold hose. If you do not have a heated hose, please disconnect your water when not in use, and overnight, to prevent freezing.
If freezing occurs, a charge will be added to your reservation, so please be vigilant! Riverdance veterans confirm breakers and hydrant heat tape should be left on at all times. Any other questions, please reference our resort rules or contact our team! We’re here for you and your questions, in every season.
What's the Wi-Fi situation?
We’re proud to help you stay connected, or be the “reason” you missed that Zoom call on a bluebird day after getting fresh powder all night long. Your call, your frame.
For the curious few, WiFi is included with nightly reservations and additional information is included in your reservation confirmation email. Extended stay WiFi is available for an additional charge. Just ask your reservation guide for WiFi activation information!
Are campfires & grills allowed?
Per the Town of Gypsum’s regulations associated with Riverdance, only propane fire pits and propane grills are allowed on the premises. Such grills must remain supervised at all times. No solid fuel fires or campfires at individual sites, either (i.e., no wood, charcoal, fire pits, etc.). These rules are in place to ensure the safety of you and our guests.
And, yes, Smokey the Bear approves. We hope you do, too. Thanks for helping do your part in keeping everyone on the property safe and sound!
Does the bus offer a nearby pick-up point?
Close, close, we love when it’s close. For our friends who wish to keep it green, worry not. EcoTransit offers a bus stop located on HWY 6 right outside Riverdance’s entrance. Like, really close. You’re always a few stops away from your favorite mountain activity, and a few steps from your stop.
We #support local transportation. Here’s the details on scheduling from Eagle County. Go get em’, Tiger!
Where should I grab groceries & toiletries?
Nom, nom, nom, we all gotta eat! We think shopping local is awesome and wanted to present a few grocery options. Soon, a General Store will be available at the Dance. Until then…
You’re a stone’s throw away from Ridley’s Family Market and Costco, located a couple of miles away in the Town of Gypsum. There is also a City Market in the Town of Eagle, just east of our park off of I-70 at exit 147. Now, go get your grub on!
P.S.
Don’t be the person to leave your food out as a bear’s midnight snack.
Dishes and trash, what's the scoop?
Trash & clean-up time! Yes, all great meals must come to an end. As the evening winds down, do right by your camp. Between June 1st and September 30th, we offer a dish washing station available for use (please…no food dumped in the sink). The dishwashing station is closed between October 1st and May 31st for winter conditions.
There are two trash dumpsters located on the property for your convenience. Please dispose of all waste in the provided dumpsters, or expect furry friends of all sizes to nuzzle up to your rig. Don’t invite the vampire in, Gladys. Do right by yourself and neighbors, be responsible with how you wash, what you wash, and where you store food scraps or other perishable items. You won’t regret it! Neither will we!
Food storage best practices?
Coolers & rigs…coolers & rigs…coolers & rigs…yes, this should be your mantra. Please store any coolers and food within your vehicle overnight, as this is an active wildlife area.
Although our local bear mascot, River, wants you to share, we urge you to not leave food or trash unattended at any time. Keep the wild, wild. Leave no trace, park it in, park it out. No exceptions from this rule.
What is bathroom etiquette?
This goes back to the most debonair version of yourself. The slick, suave, empathetic stallion that you are (or, were). Please be mindful of other guests. Don’t sing too loud, and please respect others who wish to utilize the facilities. Do your best to do your business in 10 minutes or less (30 minutes max). Then, pick up all personal items, and clean up after yourself.
Make mama proud, so each guest may have a clean and fresh experience in our facilities. The Golden Rule does apply, treat the bathroom how you wish your neighbor does, so they find it as clean as you did. Share good habits, promote healthy and clean living within our community and do right by all! Our staff thanks you very much in advance.
Where can I park my rig before check-in or after check-out?
Ideally, this is not required. But, life happens and we know it…
In the event you do need a temporary place to park a vehicle, you may consider the below…but we do advise against this. Ask about additional parking on-site when making a reservation, too.
If heading East, you may try the Edwards Rest Stop at exit 163. If heading West, you may try Costco in Gypsum or the rest area in Dotsero at exit 133. Please be aware that any parking at these locations is at your own risk.
Where is the nearest potable and non-potable water?
Water in a pot? No, but hydration is key and knowing where to stack up on necessities like potable water is mission critical.
The nearest public dump station with potable water is located at the Edwards Rest Stop, I70 exit 163. Please verify hours and seasons of operation directly before heading over. Soon, we’ll have a dump station on-site!
What is a Tiny Cottage?
A tiny cottage at Riverdance is a 399-square-foot Park Model RV—a cozy, adventure-ready retreat designed for short-term getaways and extended stays, but not for permanent residential living. These thoughtfully crafted dwellings are classified as Recreational Park Trailers (RPTs) and built to the ANSI A119.5 standard, meaning they follow the same regulations as recreational vehicles (RVs), not mobile homes.
That means you get the best of both worlds—the comfort of a modern tiny accommodation with the flexibility of an RV. However, because they’re not intended for full-time residential use, tiny cottages do not fall under Colorado’s mobile home regulations or mobile home park protections.
Whether you’re looking for a seasonal escape, a weekend hideaway, or a scenic riverside stay, these charming cottages offer a unique alternative to traditional lodging—keeping you close to nature without sacrificing the comforts of home. Park it, lounge it, and make it yours—just not forever.
Where do I dump my greywater?
Grey after a long, dusty, or cold, sloshy Colorado day. If you have reserved a full hookup site, you may dump grey tanks at your site. If you have not reserved a full hookup site, we do NOT have a dump station on the property, and require you to go elsewhere for dumping.
Thank you for helping us keep our property wonderful for all to enjoy for decades to come. You doing your part goes a long way, and our team thanks you!
How do I reserve guest parking?
No reservations needed, bam, bam, thank you ma’am.
However, guest parking is for Riverdance guests and residents only. Again, no reservation is required, but these lots are for extra vehicles only, nothing else. No RVs/Trailers/Campers are permitted to be stored in guest parking. Thank you for your cooperation! It helps ensures all of our guests have a place for an extra vehicle, if needed.
ATV/UTV friendly?
Hate to be the bearer of bad news for those “motokids”, but ATV’s, side-by-sides and minibikes are prohibited from use on the resort premises. Vroom, vroom elsewhere, please!
Our goal is to foster a relaxing environment for our guests, and a high-pitched, two cylinder buzz around the property isn’t the ticket after a long day on the slopes or mountain.
Where is the nearest public dump station?
Pew, pew…the nearest public dump station is located at the Edwards Rest Stop, I70 exit 163. They are closed November 1 – April 1. Please verify hours and seasons of operation before heading over. Soon, we’ll have a dump station on-site!
Happy dumping!
Are pets allowed?
You know it, we allow up to two pets per reservation! Please refer to our resort policies, specifically, but we love your furry friends and look forward to seeing them frolicking across our Dog Run! We can’t wait to welcome you all.
In the future, we may even offer a legit dog wash to keep your furry friends looking their best in any season! Family is family.
