There was this campsite Fogerty and the others would go to every year in California called Putah Creek. It was run by a descendent of Buffalo Bill Cody, and they used to sell these drinks made with a syrup called "Green River". Fogerty wrote wrote the song about the camp which was like a vacation refuge to him, and then named it 'green river' cos it was more musical-sounding.
@shadowwiththeeyes Except it’s not a campsite. Putah Creek is a real creek in Winters, CA where he summered. The permanent building foundation of Cody’s camp still exists on the river side on the 100 block of Wolfskill St. (near 1st).
