Encampment and Riverside have a colorful history from the days of Mountain rendezvous to copper mining, ranching, logging and small industry. An historic Town Hall has been renovated in recent times so that future generations can enjoy the community gatherings as their ancestors did in days gone past. There are two lovely park areas where visitors often enjoy time in the fresh air. Among your choices for spending your time at Riverside Lodge, the popular Grand Encampment Museum ranks highly.
