This was our second time staying at Riverside. This time we were a group of three and we opted for a cottage. It was super spacious and comfortable, with everything we could possibly need. It’s also a very short walk from Twin City Brewing and a (slow but free) EV charger

Stayed 9 years ago on a recommendation and was so impressed back then that upon our next return we made sure we stayed here again. Stayed in a two bedroom cottage this time and was spotless, spacious and comfortable. Will stay again when next return and will continue to recommend.

Great place to stay
The room was nice, comfortable beds and airconditioning. Large courtyard with plenty of seating and bbq's for use. I believe the best part of the stay was the friendliest of the staff. Made us feel like family. Will definitely stay there again
