History
Welcome to Camp Riverview, a place with a rich history and a cherished memory!
Once a small 7 cabin fishing resort in the 80's, then transformed into a horse camp, the land Camp Riverview exists on was affectionally known as "The Quiet Place". After years of searching for the perfect property, Jennifer & Brent McKee's realtor sent them the listing for the property in Boulter and it was love at first site! Immediately they recognized its incredible potential. With it's expansive shoreline and lush forest, surrounded by 1000's of acres of crown land the site quickly became the perfect home for Camp Riverview. They visited the site and they knew before they got out of the car that this was it! Within months, Camp Riverview began to take shape as they installed docks, built a riverside gazebo, assembled kayak racks and transformed buildings into inviting breakout spaces.
With so much building still to happen, they can't wait to see Camp Riverview flourish into its full potential in the years to come!
