First thing my reason for the rate of the review was due to the fact that the house’s dock by the river was pretty much out of commission to be used. The dock had missing wood and was slanted at a large incline making it unsafe to walk on and there were tons of wasp nest on the dock as well which made it uninviting for our kids to be around. Granted when we booked this in April we had no idea this was this case and it wasn’t till was informed by the owner that the deck had some issues a few weeks before our trip. However if I had know it was this bad I probably would have canceled but we made the best of our situation. The house itself was really nice and the kids had fun. The bathroom upstairs was super pretty and the owner had the kitchen well stocked for us so that was very nice. Lots of ants in the yard though so had to be careful again with the kids. The owner was very easy to get ahold of and when I had informed them of how back the dock looked with pictures she did help out with suggestions of other places we could go to for finishing and swimming so that was nice. Again our main reason for renting the place was the attraction it had a dock right off the river so disappointing that we had to go somewhere else to do what we wanted to do with the kids. Probably wouldn’t recommend this place until the dock is fixed unless you’re just looking for a nice house.
This home was perfect for a family reunion. It’s spacious, comfortable and has everything you need. The guest bathroom is amazing and finally, a place with plenty of towels for everyone! The kitchen has plenty of counter space and is well equipped. No complaints about this house!
From the owner: "Thank you, Marsha! I am so glad you had a great family reunion!"
Would have given five stars, but the steps down to the dock/boathouse are in very bad shape and are dangerous to negotiate. Very nice to be right on the river and the house and parking are definitely as advertised.
We had a amazing time. The house is cozy and comfy.
Beautiful sunsets on the deck, and peacefulness in the hammock on the dock.
Plenty of room for kids to run and play. Kitchen well stocked and loved the Traeger that was available to use. Hubby loved the tv!
Hope to return to “Riverwood” soon!
This house is my family’s favorite place ever. We have stayed multiple times now. Whenever we have vacation time we love to go to “Riverwood”.
I’m not sure where to start. The view is breathtaking, sunset is my favorite time of day. My kids Love jumping off the deck with the rope swing. (They even did it in the winter.) During the warmer months we all love to float in the river.
The house is huge, this stay we had three families staying at the same time and plenty of room for everyone. We made lots of family memories with all the cousins together.
We loved playing games and roasting marshmallows for s’more! Hanging on the deck with family was something I’ll always treasure.
The kids also enjoyed playing football, soccer and baseball in the large yard. My seven year old caught his first catfish on the dock. He was beyond excited!
We all slept great and mattress’s were super comfortable. The Riverwood house is always exactly what my family needs, to rest and relax and spend time together as a family.
God Bless Riverwood.
