Emerald Cove is an RV park for those with a membership. It is part of a grouping of RV parks/campsites around the United States. This particular one is part of a grouping of parks located on the Colorado River. The site is directly situated next to the Colorado. It is outside of Parker, Arizona; a short drive from many places such as Phoenix, LA, and Las Vegas. The park itself does have full hookups, but the campsites are quite plain. Each comes with a picnic table and a BBQ grill, and a measly 'ol palm tree. There's no shade anywhere. The only relief you have is to go right down to the beach area/river. Luckily it's not far from any of the sites, unless you have on in the very back. There are 3 pools and a couple hot tubs. My husband and I did swim in the pools. They were clean, there is a bar situated next to them and they offer really cheap drinks, although we did not get any. My husband and I are not members. We were actually there for free and we had to attend a sales pitch meeting. We did not become members based on numerous reasons. However, becoming a member may be a very good option for others who are RV'ing around the U.S. Overall the park is kind of bland. There is also not a whole lot around the area besides the river. We do not have a boat so we couldn't boat the river and we didn't have enough time while we were there to bother trying to rent anything. In fact, I don't even know if they offer boat rentals. This is an okay spot, but would be a lot better if you plan on spending a majority of your time boating on the river. read more

This incident occurred on 11/26/2016 . In the early morning and in the afternoon around 3pm.. THE STORE INSIDE THIS PLACE HAS STAFF THAT ARE VERY RUDE AND RACIST.. Let me tell you a small story that happened in their very small RV park store.. I Was 1st in line to buy some items.. Some sodas and ice .. Their were 2 female cashiers.. A white girl in her 20's, and a Indian/ Caucasian girl around the same age.. As I stood in there checkout line, I reached the point where it was my turn... As I started to make my way to the cashier to place my items on the table, the white girl cashier ignored me completely and called for the next customer , ( who was white) and ignored me.. She did this 4 more times before the obvious was made known, and the Indian/Caucasian girl actually said" I can help you over here ".. Even though I was upset , I didn't make it a issue then, and I just ignored it. However later that day, my girlfriend got sick, and I had to go back to this store , which I didn't want to do, to buy some Advil .. So when I walked in, there wasn't that many people in there this time, so they only had the Indian/Caucasian girl working .. I waited my turn in line, and when I was attended, she started ringing up my items. ( Now believe me, I didn't want to buy anything besides the Advil and Gatorade I had to buy , but I decided to not let the incident that occurred earlier ruin my day and try and make my time here as best as possible, thinking maybe lotto scratchers would cheer me up .) Well, anyways , I had noticed they sold lotto scratchers there, and while she was ringing me up, I asked her if I could get some scratcher tickets. Well Before I had a chance to finish that sentence, she rudely cut me off and told me " WHY DONT YOU PAY FOR THIS 1ST OK".. If I wasn't a gentleman, I would of slapped her ugly face back to uglytown, but I just stood quiet, and paid for my items .. After I paid, she then asked what tickets I wanted , which I replied , "none " and walked out the store... If this is the kind of staff this place hires, then I want nothing to do with this place, and I encourage everyone who reads this who is a minority, to steer clear of this place ... You are not welcome here , is the impression I received at this dump... Won't be coming back here that's for sure read more

Oversold.. No control over the idiots that roam the beach and race their PWC's across the front of the anchored boats. Desperately need to upgrade electrical service. I've melted two plugs there. Boat parking is difficult at best with campers anchoring giant rafts off the beach. This place needs an overhaul!! read more

We've been members since the day they opened. At one time was reasonable priced. Now expensive and way over sold. Flys like a 3rd world meat market at the snack bar. Store employees are trailer trash rude, nosy and maliciously gossipy. Abrasively obnoxious. Lousy WiFi. No matter what expensive plan you buy the high pressure up-sale remains on. It's called re-loading memberships in the industry and it's illegal. Arm twisting, phony gifts with strings attached, smoke and mirror fake premise to get you back into the boiler room to sweat more money out of you.. Note the higher rated reviews are by one time visitors and new members with a blush on that haven't woken up yet. Lots of gang families. read more

Stay was great... on the river... kayak out the back door!... nice folks... convenient homemade food that was surprisingly OK... great staff... lots of planned activities, (if interested)... close by hiking/ biking/ kayaking... clean nice restrooms, pools, hot-tubs, nice friendly bar.... Karaoke was - well - karaoke! (on fri & sat eve only) and all had lots of fun... Our first stay, but not our last! We will be back soon! read more

great rv Resort! staying on the river Priceless! real bang for the buck! very happy to be a member! read more

I'm pretty sure this is the place, but it wasn't just RVs. There were a few tents and a whole lot of mobile home type cottages. It was very cute and very quiet. Our cottage was small but decent in size. It sleeps 6. A queen bed, 2 bunk beds (about the size or a prison cell!), a decent sized bathroom, full kitchen equipped with pots, pans, silverware, paper towels, and dishes. Even dish soap and sponge. There is a blow up mattress that is quite comfortable. They provide a pump to inflate/deflate it, and other things. Kitchen table, couch, coffee table and 2. Bbq grill and awesome porch with comfortable patio furniture. You must bring sheets, blankets, pillows and towels. You may want to bring black out sheets for the windows if you're sleeping in the living room. Our spot was next to the dog beach and only 100 feet from the water. The actual condition of the cottage was lacking. They don't do a great job of cleaning or maintaining the units. Things were kind of falling apart and they even had to come repair 2 chairs that we almost fell backwards in. Ok so they have a Tiki Lounge (can't remember the 2nd word) with a pool and jacuzzi and they serve alcohol, food, and do karaoke. Everyone, including staff and guests, are nice and mind their own business. There is also a store to buy food and basic camping necessities (super overpriced!). There is a kettle corn stand as well and a miniature, miniature golf course. I believe there was a paper stating they have activities for kids too. There is a place to rent golf carts and water crafts. We got a golf cart for $35 for 24 hours and a 3 seater seadoo for $200 for 8 hours or $250 for 24 hours. Very reasonable, but they don't offer insurance on them and that can be very scary for someone who has never driven a water craft before. They also have public bathrooms throughout the camp grounds. It was almost empty when we went. My friend says during summer it is extremely packed. Not interested in going during those times! The casino is right down the river and you can take your watercraft there. There is also a floating bar a bit down the river the other direction. Niiiiiice! Seriously, I can't wait to go back! It was so relaxing... they just need to work harder on cleaning and inspecting the cabins. OH YEAH, this morning while we were still sleeping, the ac stopped working and the water was turned off. VERY inconvenient when its hot af and you have to pack and get ready. It was really miserable preparing to leave this morning. read more

See all

I emailed for a reservation. They finally called me back 3 weeks later. At this point I've already moved on to another camp site because I never heard from them. I told them I wasn't interested this time but would keep their information if I decide to stay another time. Called again today and told them the same thing and then they hung up on me because I didn't make the reservation with them. Also if I don't answer after the 15th phone call from you I am probably not interested anymore. read more

We just got home from a free weekend at Emerald Cove. We knew it was a timeshare when we made the reservation so we were prepared to sit though the 90 minute "tour." I have no doubt that it's a great deal for many people and we met several happy members, but it was not for us. Fortunately our sales person realized that we were not ready to buy in and let us out of the tour early. Now that I'm home and looked at the CRA website and saw the other properties, I'm a bit sorry that we got stuck at Emerald Cove rather than Pismo or KQ as those properties would have been more interesting to us. Emerald Cove is really a huge gravel parking lot with 30 amp sites jammed in right next to one another. It appears that if you are a member you could get a 50 amp site, and you might even get a site on the beach - which had more space between them. It would be nicer to be on the beach to limit the number of neighbors you have - the noise level was pretty high until 11:00 each night we were there. On the positive side, everyone was friendly and the happy hour was well attended, although the beer selection is limited to Coors and Bud products. If you like karaoke, you are in for a good time - they have it every night at the bar. If you don't, make sure to ask for a site far from the bar as it goes late into the night. The food is decent and really affordable. And the dog beach is great. Finally, there is free wi-fi in the clubhouse and bar, and you get free premium wi-fi on your free weekend, but it's too slow to accomplish anything important. read more

We have been coming here for about 10 years now and every year it gets harder to get reservations. It honestly drives me crazy that I always book from Sunday to Sunday and I always get stuck in a small trailer for a family of 5, while I see all the cottages and large trailers vacant. I have never been able to understand their reservation system this is definitely one of those places that should only take weekly reservations so these larger cottages and trailers don't sit here vacant waiting for someone to rent them for a couple days! The small trailers are absolute shit. They're disgusting! It's sad how much we've paid for memberships and even upgraded in hopes of getting better reservations and still can NEVER get a cottage. We can never count on enjoying our vacation here bc I always get stuck in a small trailer! You need to change your reservation system and start offering those large trailers and cottages to people who are booking an entire week from Sunday-Sunday. But god forbid you even get someone nice to speak with when you are trying to book. It makes no sense to me that I called in to book a Sunday-Sunday and was told they only had a small trailer available but then my brother calls in to book a Thursday -Saturday and he's offered a large trailer! How is that right? If anything that reservation clerk needs to tell me I don't have anything available those dates but I can get you in on this date with a large trailer or cottage. Be helpful! Not rude! Changes need to be made. Other than that the pool is decent, the tiki bar is fun, and the mile of beach is great. Upgrades are really needed attitude adjustments are needed. Changes!!!! Please fix the reservation system to better it for all. read more

We've stayed at Emerald Cove in July, in high heat, and in the Fall. There is plenty to do, and the Tiki Bar has activities and games that are fun. We experienced the NFL game night activities, and had an enjoyable time. The staff is attentive. read more

I am a bit torn writing this.. but my basis for the rating was the fact we were not blown away or disgusted by Emerald Cove Resort. The promotion they have for a free stay in exchange for attending the sales pitch/membership sign up/time share is legitimate. Our stay started on a Saturday morning/afternoon and the rest of our party came in on Saturday night. This is where things started to go south... Our friends were given a time of 11am for the presentation... so given the fact we had 6 children traveling between the two groups, things have to be planned ahead. About 0815am, we get a call from the resort stating a mistake was made and there wasn't a showing at 1100am and we needed to attend the 0900am showing. After discussing it over with the resort they understood our issue with trying to finish breakfast and make it for a 0900am time. They decided to "let us all enjoy the stay" and they extended an invitation to "Come back another time" so with that out of the way we just tried to experience as much of the establishment as we could figure out on our own. The county store on site is small, not to large and stocked with a bunch of frozen food and ice cream treats. It has a small section of RV type products and sandal rack. We visited the tiki bar area and pools. The pools are not large but not small and seemed to accommodate the amount of people at the resort on a holiday week. The alcohol served is wine based and tends to be sweeter when compared to a rum or vodka you would typically find at a bar. The bar food is tasty and decent for pool side snacks and lunch foods. If you want to get a meal while at the resort choose this, stay away from the club house dinners. On Saturday nights they feature a "steak dinner with all the fixin's" all for $7.99... I know I know what would one expect for seven dollars and 99 cents.. Well we are from Vegas and for 7.99 you can eat like a king at local casinos. We placed an order for 4 meals, the "fixin's" were salad, a roll and French fries.. BUT let me tell you this crap was definitely not beef steak or it was some expired meat.. because one bite from one person in our group and the level of nastiness once they opened the container filled the RV with an unpleasant odor.. we trashed the food and grilled some hotdogs. The resort has a wild burro problem and the joke over the weekend is they slaughtered a wild jackass and severed it to us! Want river front parking?? That is reserved for "members only" and the majority of the beach is "pet free" with a small area they call "dog beach".. Overall it seems to be a very windy place and a dust bowl.. the dust being kicked up is caused by the hundreds by no exaggeration hundreds of snow birds who live full time in the RV and own golf carts. They drive them up and down the roads at 10-15 miles an hour and with the sheer number of them cause it to be dustier then it needs to be.. Bottom line, we have camped at many places and had a better time with the same amenities. We will probably give it another try to see the whole presentation biz.. Happy camping read more

Nice large sites. We were parked in the 50amp sites away from the river. Nice pool. Had breakfast there it was good. We will comeback.

I've been a member for several years. We upgraded a couple of years ago. In doing so we got free week rental coupons to stay in one of the trailers or cabins. Free except the 50 dollar cleaning fee, which is fine. I have used them in the past for the 50 dollars. Well this last time I got charged 15 dollars a night on top of the 50. The reason they said is because we are on the reduced yearly dues plan that allows us to pay less dues but 15 dollars a night when we stay in a site with our rv. Well we were never told this when we upgraded. We hadn't been charged this the past times we use our coupons. So all I can say is this is breech of contract and buyer beware. read more

Grew up here. It's just a quick drive away from my cozy home town Parker, AZ. The employees are amazing and have become family as they do with everyone! The people who visit are friendly travelers just wanting some fun in the sun! Very friendly. And this is just one of the many CRA parks you can visit. I worked her for a year and am now a frequent visitor. Thanks for the great memories Emerald Cove! And to the Cherry Valley location, see you soon!! read more

Emerald Cove RV Resort - Such a great weekend. I love Emerald Cove beach! - Hotels Near Me - Earp, California

Been coming to Emerald Cove for years! The park employees are friendly and the food at the Tiki Bar is good!

Our family loves this park. We were blessed to meet a family that has a membership in 2001 via a toll road every day I drove. My family went to Emerald Cove for the weekend with this family. Both my husband and myself were raised on camping with water sports, so to meet a family that also enjoyed the same things for all of our children was awesome. It took one trip to the river with this family and we were hooked. We were hesitant to go thru the timeshare presentation because my husband and I were easily sucked in. After the presentation, both of realized that this was were we want to be, to give our children and grandchildren the same, if not better, experience that both of us were raised on. So we bought a membership and have never looked back. We bought a tent trailer then a travel trailer and then jetski's to enjoy all that Emerald Cove has to offer. We have had so many great times that I can't share them all. I have awesome memories because of a beautiful woman and her family. Sharing food, drinks, karaoke, monsoon rain storms, boating, jet skis and morning breakfast is something my family will never forget. This wonderful passed away from cancer four years ago. Now, every time we go to Emerald Cover, my family celebrates her life and what she brought to us. This place may not be filled with beautiful palm tree and foliage for shade, but this is the desert. A place that still allows pets is great and rare. The food they serve is so reasonable and tastes great. The drinks at the poolside bar are cheap, cold and did I mention they are poolside. And, the karaoke, steak dinners and street dances complete the experience. We are excited to bring one of our daughters and our granddaughters for Memorial Day this year for their first experience. Please don't let any negative reviews from discouraging you to become a member. Did I forget to mention that Emerald Cove also offers 24hr shower for free and washer/dryers for everyone's convenience. Enjoy!! read more

Great family atmosphere! Friendly people and friendly staff. We had such a great time that we signed up for a membership.

Just went through the presentation with Kata. She was a true professional. She wasn't too pushy and she was very pleasant. Thanks Kata.

Great stay 4 pools Saturday night dinner specials Kids club was well supervised Cabins and trailer for rent at a great price Rv parking and hook up was very easy Check in and check out was hassle free read more

My wife and I stayed here to listen to their 90 min tour. We did not end up purchasing the membership. The sales lady was very nice and not pushy or upset that we didnt join. She gave us our gifts and said to enjoy our stay. We had a great time listening to live music and a steak dinner. I found the staff and environment enjoyable and welcoming. I will remember this in the future when the time is right. read more

This place is a shit hole... we got a free 2 night stay but we had to listen to a time share sales pitch... Not a big deal one would think .. first off we were told we could use the beach but we could not it's for members only .. so they lied to us not a big deal bc we brought a boat.. but in the middle of the night the smell of shit was so overwhelming I could barley breath.. that was the least of our problems in the morning the waste hookups were over flowing there was litterly shit coming from everyone's rv sites flooded with shit and shitty water and the smell of death.. the maintenance crew came is started snaking everyone's pipes and pouring chlorine everywhere.. fast forward to Saturday night the smell was so horrible we could barley breath we tried to sleep but it was miserable we packed up and left at 6am.. all I could think to myself is man I feel sorry for the people that paid 10,000$ for for this shithole timeshare.. they clearly have a major sewer problem they don't want to fix I have never stayed at a rv Park with such a rancid nasty smell and bc of that the flies were insane also people don't keep dogs on leashes mine were on leashes and I kept getting weird looks we have a bull terrier and a american bulldog come to find out the maintence man was attacked and ripped up and his dog was killed .. eeeeeek no wonder people were worried about big dogs oh ya and the maintence man wanted to show off a rattle snake that was alive and in a bucket I hope no one else gets tricked into a free stay bc ITS NOT WORTH IT !! Not to mention if you have pets there is nothing but sharp nasty gravel and no shade for them to use the restroom.. and no dogs on the beach.. the breakfast burritos were bomb tho!! read more

My Husband and I stayed at Emerald cove over Presidents Day Weekend. This place was referred to us by friends who have been coming for many years. We arrived on Saturday afternoon. The resort looked decent. Someone showed us to our spot and said to let them know if we needed anything. Everyone was very nice. Our spot was ok but not as nice as the water front spots. The next day we were scheduled to attend the sales presentation at noon. We received a call at 8am to see if we wanted to attend at 9am. We jumped out of bed to get it over with so we could enjoy most of our day. We arrived to the sales office and they were very nice explained how the membership worked. The guy we had was very easy going. We thought it was going to be like a timeshare presentation but it was nothing like that. We decided to purchase. They asked if we wanted to move to a waterfront site. Of coarse we said yes. After we changed sites we fell in love. Our view was amazing. The sunsets were beautiful. We can't wait to go back. Especially because we can bring our boat. The food at the Tiki bar was decent and the beer is cheap. My only complaint is the WiFi. Luckily we have Verizon and had great phone service and used our hot spot for our smart tv's to watch Netflix. read more

See all

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay, with a site right on the water. The staff at the Tiki Bar was great and the drinks and soft serve ice cream?....we enjoyed them several times. Our visit was during transition time, between Winter Visitor exodus and school summer vacation start, giving us very quiet week days and mildly crazy weekends. Our fishing kayak adventures were short as at sunrise, when the water is like glass, the boaters and water skiers enjoy the water, causing too much chop for us for the rest of the day. The burros, almost nightly, in the park make for photo opportunities for many. We live only 30 miles from Emerald Cove Resort, in AZ. It's a great place to be near the water! read more

I wish the showers downriver would get redone. Enjoyed the beach. Lots of entertainment for kids. But you must check schedules as things close early. read more

Nothing but fun. We stay here as a guest with our RPI membership yet they still treat you like a member. They take care of all your needs. The best beach on the Parker Strip. read more

This place has an excellent location on the Colorado River. That is pretty much it. The park is large and 100 percent gravel. Very dusty and virtually no vegetation. We received a spot on the second row, one away from the river. Our view was a row of trash receptacles. One would think they would be at the rear of the resort and not at the river view location. Pure marketing genius. The restrooms/showers were disgusting. Broken tiles on the floor, leaky shower heads, dim lighting and dirty. They advertise cable hookups They don't have them and haven't had them since October of last year. We received 4 free nights and some gifts in exchange for attending a presentation. We left after day 2. That should tell you all you need to know. read more

Emerald Cove makes millions in there business there storage for your 5th wheels motor homes travel trailers they make big money if your trailer or motor home or 5th wheel is damaged by them or someone breaks in they are not responsible..Can you imagine someone telling you well your 5th wheel is not worth much like are 85000 dollar ones or 100.000 dollar one so my Newmar 5th wheel is not good enough they say they take no responsibility for any damage or theft..because I can't prove who did it... this has the worst customer service I was a big deal in a major Airline customers were are bread and butter you work out what you can do for the customer not treat them like crap.. if you have your 5th wheel insured You have to handle it. Bad customer service sales team is pleasant but they want your money..kindness goes along way even if they can't help.. I was treated badly you can't prove it. They kept denying it was not done and they would not come over to check it out.. Sharon Kroesch very disappointed elite member .....I would have been fired from my airline if I treated customers this way it's all about greed and money for them.. How sad to run a business...not even one star but you have to rate it.. read more

We always have a great time here. Staff is very friendly every time. 90% of the people that stay here are great people, willing to help you out whenever possible. The other 10% are typical camping idiots.(you will find them anywhere) This place is in the center of Parker strip and has a lot to offer. read more

This trip was extremely disappointing. Let me tell you why. We decided to take a quick 4 day trip to Arizona and check out the membership options at a RV Resort Group that has been part of the Family for many years. (Emerald Cove is one of the RV campgrounds in the group) Because it was such a quick trip, we did not to take our trailer instead we rented ($39/night if you're a member) one of the Resorts trailers, which is really a nice option, right?... Nope, it turned into the worst option. The trailer was, how do you say, "Well Loved". The bathroom is ridiculously tiny. Seriously, your knees touch the door when you sit on the toilet. (I am average height and weight). There is literally 6 inches between the toilet and the shower, and the toilet and the sink. I took a video, but it doesn't look like I can post it here. Wallpaper peeling, 2 out of the three burners on the stove did not work. All of the blinds on the windows were broken. They disconnected the forced air...and replaced it with one, very tiny (literally the size of my palm) room heater, which means no heat in the bathroom. (It was Cold, low 50's during the day and low 40's at night). Plus...no Television or satellite. No cell service. Want WiFi? Sorry, you have to go to the clubhouse. Contrary to what the website says, you cannot reserve a specific site or location (I.e. waterfront). Even though there were vacant rentals by the water, we were crammed up against wall to wall trailers. There are spaces for 800 of them. Fun note: In case you are still reading this extremely long rant, we renamed the Tiki Bar to the Leaky Tiki. The good news, you can get a beer for $2.50 during Happy Hour, but (bad news) we recommend you bring your umbrella inside when it's raining (thus the reason we renamed it). Paid for 3 nights, left after 2 and were never so glad to do so. read more

Emerald Cove RV Resort is amazing, beautiful relaxing with tons to do. Friendly staff and fellow RV'ers. We can't wait to go back

Our power fluctuated and our surge protector kept going off. Also, I don't like that they keep rental trailers empty on the beach since it is first come first serve! River front is great. Bar food is great. We only drink beer due to the wine liquor being too sweet. Staff is great. read more

I stayed at Emerald for the first time not a member but did receive a few gifts just to attend a presentation to become a member. I have a few friends who recommended this resort to me and I was happy with the outcome. The resort was very clean, family oriented, everyone in the park were super friendly and helpful. The only complaint I have is their Wi-Fi sucks :( I have a 14 year old and at night he was so bored not able to watch Netflix and even just using our data it was still slow to get on the internet. read more

I stayed at Emerald Cove in January 2017. Had a great time and park is clean and quiet. The weather wasn't the greatest, but we found time to check out the park, enjoy the Tiki Bar and play mini golf. Sites are full hookups and most are 30 amp. Some 50 amp sites are available, but not while I was there. Beach sites are 30 amp and are most desirable when the weather is good. read more

We recently visited this so-called vacation resort. We received a few nights stay and in return we had to sit in and listen to a presentation regarding the membership. We were told that we would be in the second row, close to the river. We were placed in the fourth row. We also were given a 30 amp hook-up that was not enough to keep our air conditioning on. It was 114 degrees outside. The voltage was low, which could damage equipment. Sites were so close that your neighbor's sewage dump was in your site. The picnic tables were old, the nails were coming out, the wood was splitting. When you sit on them, the entire table moved. The place was so crowded, you couldn't even get to the beach. Boats, jet skis, tubes, easy-ups, etc, were all along the beach and not enough room for other campers who did not have sites along the shore. The pool was murky and gross. I wouldn't even allow my child to swim in it. People live there in old trailers. There is NO WI-FI unless you go to the club house or the store, which was 1/2 mile away from the site. There is NO phone service. The place is LARGE so you need a truck or extra vehicle to get around. People were up at all hours of the night lighting fireworks, yelling and being loud, and walking through the campsite. The rules posted are not followed. Off-road vehicles are not allowed to be driven in the park but they were anyway. Underage kids were driving golf carts as well. The only perk was they have a dog run and a dog park on the beach, which our dogs enjoyed. We went to the presentation and the sales person was extremely rude. HE said that only members can get 50 amps. He stated that we were "looky-loos" so we could only get 30 amps. The membership is outrageously priced. It's around 12,000 for the top of the line membership. When my mother-in-law said that we were not going to get the membership, the salesperson crumbled up the paper and threw it in the trash and rudely stated to her that there was no point in moving forward and accused her of not being interested from the beginning. When we asked about seeing another park, he said that we could not and that "you cannot drive a car for a year and then buy it." I couldn't believe what I was hearing. The park staff are not very pleasant either. We ended up leaving after the presentation. We didn't even stay two nights there. We will never go back again. We travel often in our RV and this place is the last place we would go with our child and our pets. Here's our suggestion--- if you are going to sell something, you probably should make people comfortable and send them to a desirable place instead of this park. read more

in our experience comments. We started out having a blast we got to Emerald cove late night at approx. 10:30 pm. Saturday we had an amazing time. Sunday was not really pleasant. At approximately 11 a.m. in the morning Judy pick those up in the golf cart. We had our meeting with a female sales rep who we did not get her name (i think her name started with an "L")because she went straight to the business of why we where there which was for the membership not the fun. Before we got started i mentioned that i knew someone who was selling a transfer through a home park with RPI membership which i was told by the person who made our reservation to mention it to them, it was a huge mistake. The lady wanted nothing to do with us she told us that she did not want us to waste her time. She was not going to educate us, she not going to explain anything to us and told me to do my research but that we basically needed to leave her sight, but we were able to stay in the premises. She made us really uncomfortable, it was extremely awkward and i cant believe she acted in such manner that was very unprofessional. Horrible experience with her, we were really excited to learn and possibly make a purchase. my future wife and i will not think about this place again thanks to her. We had a blast, but  she really got to us. She is not a nice lady however her family pics on the wall would describe otherwise. My future wife and i CAN afford it, she made it seem like we couldnt. She kicked us out of her office, it was really emberrasing. Not recomending her to my rv friends at all. I had mentioned that i knew a lady. I never mentioned that we were going to buy anything from her. She was very rude. I hope this helps future possible buyers be on the look out for her. Dont waste her time. No time is a waste. Thank you read more

Well, we were here for one day, because it was 121 degrees. We could not take the heat, our RV was facing the west side and asked to change sites so our door would face the east (since the sun rises in the east and sets in the west). But they said no, even though there were plenty of empty lots towards the back. The bathrooms/showers needs a good scrub and soak of clorox. Oh, and The pool was so gross, it smelt like bad odor. I guess I can understand, since it's so hot and everyone is sweating, all they want to do is cool off, but it was gross. The lake was nice a refreshing though. They have a good happy hour, and the staff is really friendly, except for the fact that they didn't move us, which was a big reason why we left. It's just too hot for summer. read more

We have been members of Colorado River Adventures for more than 20 years and always enjoy Emerald Cove. We have not been able to go to the other Colorado River Adventure grounds due to exclusions of certain time frames. Our family, though, really gets a lot out of going to Emerald Cove. I have read others say it is like a time share. This is not true. It is a membership club with many activities available and many things for children. It is very clean and the staff are very supportive. read more

Don't bother if your not gonna buy. We just purchased our RV. We were told we would have $1000 resort credit which equates to 20 days they have about 7 resorts or so. We decided to do our tour at the resort in Parker AZ . We were told during presentation that we had the credit but informed us we could only use that same resort for the credit, they do not let guest go to other resorts. We were most interested in Pollock Pines. As a gift we were told it was an android tablet. It is a tablet but it's RCS tablet. We were also told we would her dditional $200 for confirming which turns out to be $200 credit hotel voucher that can only be used MTWTH. The real kicker, they say they will give you $200 for fuel cost. They don't give you $200 right then You have to save receipts and send to them for reimbursement. We went to Mountain Lakes the weekend before and we're handed $100 cash. Big joke on the gifts. To purchase OMG silver plan $9995. Total rip off !!! read more

I have to say Emerald Cove has been so good to me and my family. My mom has been going there for 40 years and my dad has been going there the same. My sister and I have been going there our whole lives. We learned how to swim there and drive the golfcarts. Overall, it's a safe, fun, family oriented adventure for everyone. If you haven't been there yet make sure to go and you to could make it your second home!! WE LOVE IT AND YOU ALL WILL TOO! Love Kalee and Lexi and parents too. read more
