User:RioRaft/Rio Raft Resort

Rio Raft & Resort opened as River Valley Campround in 1977 with the same two partners and owners as today. The property was overgrown with cedar and mesquite trees, had no utilities or roads but had a lot of potential. Years earlier, the mostly German citizens used the riverfront as a park and for a short time, the property was the site of a community center call Wahalla. After months of hand clearing, road work and construction of a small storage building which served as an office, RV hookups were installed along the tree line overlooking the Guadalupe. The current store/office building was constructed in 1978.
