Beautiful, clean, river getaway. We had a wonderful time tracking the ships and enjoyed watching the variety of birds on the river. The view was amazing and a nice selection of restaurants was a convenient few minutes drive away. Would love to stay there again.

Fantastic stay!
The owner was so helpful with checking in upon arrival! The property is beautiful and modern, plenty of amenities, including 3 kayakys and 2 canoes, which for the price is unbeatable! The ships that pass by are definitely a plus to the whole experience. 10/10, would stay again.

Relaxing at it's best!!
What a fantastic stay at Riverside Retreat! Everything was well stocked from the bathrooms to the kitchen. The location was perfect and we all enjoyed sitting outside to watch the ships that went by. Many nights we were up much later than usual waiting for just one more ship to go by! I have already recommended the property to multiple friends and would love to stay again sometime.
