What a wonderful property. We spent Thanksgiving at the Riverside Retreat and enjoyed it so much. The house was clean and stocked with everything I needed to cook our thanksgiving dinner. The host, Susan, is super attentive and wonderful. Overall great stay.

This property is absolutely beautiful and peaceful! The hosts, Susan and Harvey, were a treasure and we were so glad to meet them. We didn't have any problems or issues with our stay. The home is supplied perfectly and offered even more than what we imagined. We are DEFINITELY going back!
