Great family trip! Riverside was a cute and comfortable little inn. The staff was great and we loved our room. We had a balcony which had a great view of the river. So peaceful. Walking distance to the shops and restaurants. I’m heartbroken for this community. So sad this little gem is gone. When they get up and running again we will definitely be back. One of my favorite towns in NC.

Secret Treasures!
So peaceful! Can't wait to visit again!
I wish the balcony door had a screen door so you could leave the door open so you can enjoy the sound of the river flowing all night!

Loved this place. Bed was super awesome. Big and comfy. If I could live there I would 😊
Loved the little balcony on room 8 with the water sounds.

Nice spot by the creek. The view from the balcony was great and peaceful. The one complaint is the walls are really thin, so you can hear everything. If you have kids, they may have a hard time sleeping at first until the tvs go off. Other than that, really nice stay!

Goldilocks would like it.
The room was clean, including the bedding. The bathroom was very clean. The location is perfect. You have the beautiful, peaceful river right behind you and the gift shops and restaurants are a short walk away. We enjoyed our stay.
