Snug Harbor has
shady WATERFRONT RV Sites
that come with full hook-ups and docks. We also have wind
& current-protected Covered
Berths! In 1999, 2000 and 2001, 2004 and 2005 we added the "Snuggle
Inns" which are
waterfront rental cabin
accommodations. We also added new bathroom facilities (ADA
compliant) a small tent-style club house, improved our boat launch area,
and improved the road access. Our marina area is the focus of
projects this fall, as we rebuild existing berths and replace others.
We also added additional rental cabins for Spring 2002.
Snug Harbor is a peninsula
situated off Ryer Island, about 10
 minutes
from Rio Vista. From Rio Vista one would use the Rio Vista (also
called Real McCoy) Ferry to reach us by crossing the Sacramento Deep Water
Channel, or the J-Mac Ferry on Steamboat Slough. For those
with very large RV's who visit us, or those shy of using one of the
two ferries serving the island, there's a bridge onto Ryer Island at the
north end, accessed by Courtland Road off Hwy. 160. Our physical
address is: 3356 Snug
Harbor Drive (On Ryer Island), Walnut Grove, CA 95690

Snug Harbor is a
family-friendly park perfect for those in our midst who love to fish,
water ski, swim, boat, canoe or PWC. (PWC stands for "personal
watercraft" such as Jet Ski or Wave Runner). As we get many visitors
with children of all ages, we have a good supply of "loan out" games such
as volleyball, croquet, bocce' ball, badminton and horse shoes for
family entertainment. We have a nice small-child play gyms at the
front of the resort, and near the sandy beach. Bike riding is fine
in the park, but we ask that no motorized bikes, cycles or scooters be
used in the park to maintain our quiet, peaceful setting.
Our motto: "There are no
strangers here...only family, old friends and newly-found friends"
 The
peninsula on which Snug Harbor resides has a colorful past. It
was an original and natural island when the region was all wet marshes and
no levees were yet built. During the Gold Rush days, 49ers traveling
from Sacramento to San Francisco on the Delta King or Delta Queen
Paddlewheels would take the "midnight run" down "Steamboat Slough" and
right past our shores. Those with their own boats would stop and
camp along Steamboat Slough, no doubt spending peaceful nights on our
"island". In the early 1900's the land was purchased by the Martin
family, and by the 1940's "Martin's Island" became a peninsula attached to
much larger adjacent Ryer Island. Soon after that, it became "Snug
Harbor" because "Snug Cove" was such a perfect name for the cove created
when the peninsula connection was made.
Snug Harbor has about all the amenities you'd want for a peaceful,
relaxing and fun vacation. And any amenity we don't have is very
close by. On site are rental "cabins" we call "Snuggle Inns".
We have a small store, gas dock, boat launch, dry storage, covered berths,
open slips and side ties, shady waterfront RV sites, a few tent sites as
well, guest docks, lend-out video and book library and very friendly
staff. For park layout, go to park map.
Nearby (15 minutes or so from
Snug Harbor) are 25+ quaint little
restaurants
you can get to by boat on the waterways, or by vehicle traveling the
Delta's "asphalt sloughs". There's also 3 golf courses in the Delta,
the largest being in Rio Vista, near us. There's grocery stores,
sundries, churches, medical offices in Rio Vista and Walnut Grove as well.
More information available about the Delta, Delta "Loop" tours, Delta
restaurants, etc. Use navigation bar to the left for more info.
