About Us

The Perfect Nantahala Basecamp

Riverbend RV Park & Cabins offers riverfront camping in Franklin, North Carolina, where every site sits along the Cullasaja or Ellijay River. Established in 1997, the park provides a peaceful mountain setting with modern amenities, pet-friendly areas, and a welcoming community atmosphere.

We’re Tim and Jodi, owners of Riverbend since November 2024, and proud members of Franklin Chamber of Commerce and Good Sam Club. Riverbend is part of our Hickory Knob Farms collection. We live just two miles up the road and are at the park daily, supported by our full-time camp hostess who helps us ensure every guest feels at home.
