Waterfront | Wood Fireplace | Pet Friendly

Before we dive in, a gentle warning: once you’ve stayed here, you may go home wondering, “Why doesn’t my morning coffee come with river views and a bald eagle flyover?”

People arrive saying, “We just needed a little getaway,” and leave saying things like, “Is your place for sale?”

If you`re still reading, great. You`re our kind of person.

Riverside Retreat is cosy, scenic, peaceful and the kind of place where people come to relax, reconnect, and occasionally question whether they should quit their job and move to the woods. You can kayak, stargaze, cook, read, nap, repeat…or just soak in the view like you’re auditioning for a Hallmark film. No judgement.

And the best part? We thought of everything you could possibly need. Seriously. Just bring clothes, food, drinks, and whoever you like enough to share a riverfront cottage with.

What You’ll Love
🍳 A ridiculously stocked kitchen
Air fryer. Spices. Condiments. All the tools. If you forgot to bring it, chances are we already have it.

🍽️ Dining with show-stopping river views
If the food isn’t great, the view will distract your guests. Win-win.

🔥 Living room cosiness level: unmatched
Soft seating, big windows, and a wood-burning fireplace that practically begs you to curl up with a blanket and rethink your life choices (in a good way).

🛏️ Bedrooms designed with comfort in mind
Uniquely styled, comfy, and guaranteed to make your bed at home feel slightly offended.

🚿 Bathrooms that just feel good
Clean, fresh, spacious, and stocked so well even your toothbrush will feel like it’s on holiday.

🌅 A backyard that doubles as therapy
Mornings with coffee. Evenings with stars. River vibes all day. You’re welcome.

🛶 Four kayaks (aka “therapy boats”)
Available May to October. Perfect for floating, exploring, or escaping your group for as long as you need.
