Russian River Recreation & Park District

Russian River Rec and Park District

The Russian River from the Guerneville area out to the Pacific Coast is a world-famous recreation area.  And for as long as anyone can remember “going up to the River” has been a popular way for people in the Bay Area to take vacations,  whether for a day trip, a weekend at a resort or a whole summer in the family cabin.

When the Russian River Recreation and Park District (RRRPD) was formed in March 1941 as a county recreation district, the district’s initial function was to create swimming and beach areas by installing two summer dams, one at Johnson’s Beach in Guerneville and a second dam at Vacation Beach, where the dam also provides a summer crossing.

The district contains approximately 10 square miles encompassing the communities of Guerneville, Rio Nido, Guernewood Park, Vacation Beach and the six miles stretch of the Russian River along which these communities are located.

As the recreational needs of district residents have become more important, the RRRPD dam-installation mission has evolved to include parks, tennis courts, a community garden, river access, and a dog park.
