Update as of August 10, 2025 10:30am: The Canyon Fire is nearing containment. The Canyon Road remains closed and all evacuation orders have been lifted for the Tuolumne area. We do not have an update on accessibility via Cherry Lake/Groveland as that route was not officially closed and seems to be a local authority issue. The burned area is several miles from the campground. (Photos in comments)

Update: DO NOT TRY TO ACCESS RIVER RANCH VIA GROVELAND/CHERRY LAKE. EVEN IF YOU ARE DIRECTED TO USE THIS ROUTE AS A DETOUR BY LAW ENFORCEMENT. NON RESIDENTS ARE BEING TURNED AWAY AT CHERRY LAKE.

River Ranch and its guests are currently safe. We are not under evacuation orders from the Canyon Fire and will continue to monitor. River Ranch is only accessible via Cherry Lake at this time due to the Cal Fire road closures at Carter and Buchanan. All guests scheduled for arrival today are encouraged to postpone. Delays are expected in the reopening of the canyon road. Please join us in prayer for the safety of the first responders and all those affected by this fire.

We are grateful for our wonderful guests and the positive feedback we have received about the recent changes around the campgrounds. We’ve been working diligently to make your visit with us a comfortable, relaxing stay.
