Rivers Bend Family Resort

We rented the igloo for my 50th Birthday dinner. It was such a fun experience. It was such a cozy experience, but also plenty of room for all of us to be comfortable. The heater was fantastic! Amy was our server and she was amazing. Very attentive and friendly.

I was traveling through from TX to ST Louis and stopped in. The restaurant had EXCELLENT food, and the staff was very kind and attentive. I HIGHLY recommend stopping in and camping on their tent island, and checking out the river! I stayed on tent island which is VERY easily accessible and has well-lit sides and a bit darker if you want it more rustic. VERY family friendly and oriented.

Enjoyed a warm evening on the back patio at Rivers Bend, in this neat and toasty igloo! The reservation was totally worth it! Friends, food, and a cozy fire 🤌🏼 Amanda was a perfect hostess! Made sure we had everything we needed, made recommendations on menu items that were a total hit with my crew! If you're looking for something fun to do, despite the cooler winter weather - trust me, you'll find it here and with excellent service to boot! 12/10 would recommend! Ps. I'm a real person, local to Joplin, with no affiliation to this business or their staff. This is just a heckin' genuine review for a legitimately great experience. Enjoy!

We had lunch in an Igloo on the deck next to the beautiful Shoal Creek. Our server, Amy, was great! She was very attentive to our needs, & checked on us often. The food was great! The Park has alot to offer. A campground, a park like setting, a covered wagon to rent! Cabin(s?) For rent! I would recommend this place for a day or weekend adventure for any family, group, or individual.

We rented one of the igloos for date night! Very relaxing, cozy and would be a good way to hang out/double date with friends. Food & drinks were good. Highly recommend the butter candle and croissants! Our server Christina was amazing!
