Thread: Kings River near Fresno

    Anyone have any info on this place? We are staying at Kellys beach near Reedley. I am bringing my 19 foot jet boat, I was told anything else is too big. Last I heard was that it is flowing real fast and the water is ice cold. We will be up there on the 26th next Friday. I guess this group we are going with does some float down river every year on innertubes that usally takes 4 hours but now that it is flowing so fast it is only 2 and they advised us to wear life jackets! I think ill stay in my boat! LOL
    Any tips or pointers wil be greatly appreciated

    I was gonna add that Riverland in Kingsburg is much better, but I guess it is still closed.

    I have family and friends going over the 4th. We decided to go to Havasu instead.

    This is good news to know!!! I guess none of the other people in my party are aware of this. Looks like I will be the bearer of bad news

    Camping + Kings River = Royal Oak. I hear that they have a 5MPH speed limit in front of the part now. Way back it was the place to 'tie up your hot boat'. Always smooth, always cold water, always a great party with low stress levels. They (park owners) would bug us back in the 70's for mufflers!
