River Islands also has a trail system that attracts walkers, joggers and bicyclists. Part of the trail system includes a miles-long path along the San Joaquin River.

Thirteen lakes are already a part of the community’s design, with more water features in the planning. Whether one lives on the water or enjoys it as a community amenity, opportunities abound for water recreation.

Not only does our newly renovated Community Boathouse and its Bar and Grille serve as a gathering place for residents and visitors, it also provides a gateway to the amenities of Sunset Point Park, with its bocce and sand volleyball courts.

Islanders Field is one of the newest additions to River Islands. This brand-new state-of-the-art grass field stadium is the perfect spot for residents and friends to enjoy a memorable experience here in the community. The stadium offers a seating capacity of approximately 500, lights, public restrooms, a scoreboard, public address systems, batting cages and paved parking. River Islands isn’t simply providing the fields. We are contracting with well-established and successful youth programs in the Bay Area to establish leagues, stage clinics, and organize tournaments. Teams from all over are invited to reserve Islanders Field for their next baseball event.

River Islands residents will have peace of mind with the state-of-the-art fire station and Lathrop Police Services administrative headquarters within the community.

River Islands is consistently named among the most successful master-planned communities in California. One of the keys to its success is its charter school system, set up to provide the highest levels of academic instruction and social interaction in a supportive environment.

As of August, 2022, three campuses have been built by River Islands Development. All are operated by the River Islands Academies, with the authorization of Banta Unified School District, one of the oldest districts in California.
