I had a similar problem with a river. River was going from south to north, the fort was to the west of the river, the caravans were arriving fine (from all three available directions). However when I built the bridge to the other side of the river and made it the only available route, all perfectly cleared and reliable - the caravan wagons could not find their way in. So I rebuilt the caravan route to a point on the my side of the river and everything worked fine.

The other side of the river was perfectly accessible for the civs on the world map. So I think that it's the initial location of the fort relative to the river feature that really matters.

Very possible.  I also had a bridge over a river, but I had NO caravans get through.  OTOH, my wagon dropped on the opposite side of the river from where I built my fortress and my first trade depot went down in the open as I had a surface encampment while I waited for my miners to finish prepping the new home.
