Amazing!!
We had an amazing stay at Jhonny’s Rivermist Retreat. It is clearly observed that Jhonny had put a lot of thoughts and efforts in to the place. All the watercraft’s available are great to enjoy, the river behind is beautiful and bliss for swimmers. Kitchen is fully stocked as mentioned in listing. We would be definitely coming back!!

Fall retreat!
This cottage had everything we needed for our stay! The river was quite peaceful, we were there in the fall so probably not as busy as in the summer. The cottage was the perfect size for our group with everything being new and updated. Great stay, we hope to be able to enjoy it again!😊

Quiet location on a beautiful river, this location is perfect for whatever you’re looking for. My group spent time enjoying the canoe and kayaks, and even set up our own croquet set in their large yard. I highly recommend a weekend here. 10/10
