Perfect quiet getaway
We were looking for a quiet getaway to relax and enjoy the outdoors, and Riverview was the perfect place. We enjoyed hiking on the 85 acre property, with lots of little hidden gems to find. Afterwards, a relaxing time on the beautiful wrap-around deck and a barbecue. The location is secluded, but close enough to get to the beaches and other towns within 20 minutes. Mark was a fantastic host, checking with us throughout our stay to make sure we found everything we needed, and answered all of our questions within minutes. A fantastic place that we will need to visit again throughout the different seasons!

A peaceful place to explore
We enjoyed our short stay at Mark’s cabin. The property is vast and gorgeous. We had fun exploring with the kids and did day trips to the beaches in South Hampton and Sauble. The cabin has a beautiful deck with an amazing view. The book collection is impressive. I only had time to read a few short stories, but a reader with more down time would be in heaven.

Nice staying
The place is very nice, it is very cozy. The view from the cottage is amazing. Our pets were very happy to run all over the place. We just stay for a couple of days, but would be nice for a larger stay next time.

Heaven on the Hill
This cabin felt like home the moment we stepped in. The personal stories and touches make things feel that much more welcoming. The book collection and dvd collection is amazing. There are fun games, things to do, entertainment inside and out. The property is nothing short of stunning. The sunrise, the wildlife, the river and views all around. The trail system is so well laid out. So much to explore. Mark is fantastic and readily available with any questions or suggestions. We would highly recommend, and plan on booking again and again. It's a must see in every season! Thanks again, beyond grateful we found this place!

Great secluded getaway. Would stay again
We had a great stay! The place is on a beautiful property. The cottage had everything we needed. We did some snowshoeing and exploring of the trails and saw tons of turkeys. Mark was great — super helpful and responsive. He was proactive before we arrived and made sure we understood how to access the property. If you’re looking for a quiet, secluded spot with gorgeous scenery, and are comfortable living with the basics I’d highly recommend this place.

Summer cottage vacation
Stayed here for a few days in the summer. Close drive (20min) to Port Elgin beach. Very quiet and secluded. Only thing is that it runs on well water and the well ran dry so we didn’t have any water for a few days.

Attentive host, stunning location.
The owner is in the process of upgrades, but it met our needs, providing a cozy getaway from the city while still being close to towns. We explored the property on foot and bike, swam (not alone for safety as the river flows quite strongly at times) enjoyed fires at night and explored beaches and towns within short driving/riding distance. For those who value nature, a host who is responsive but not intrusive, and want to explore - We highly recommend!!!

A Nostalgic Cottage Experience
we really enjoyed our time at riverview. it was so peaceful, a lovely escape from the city. we were able to roam in mature, with plants and trees surrounding us, and the background of the river. the place had everything we needed, it felt cozy with the wood floors and the Canadiana inside and Mark was great at staying in contact, and providing detailed information so we didn't get lost.

Comfortable and quiet cottage
We had a great stay on Mark’s property. He gave us all information we needed and was very easy to get ahold of. The cottage itself was nice and comfortable. There were some bugs/spiderwebs in the cottage, but that was very much expected. We were able to do some clay bird shooting in a nearby field on the property and fishing in the river. We enjoyed watching all the crayfish in the river. Some suggestions that would improve the property: - Clearing out some trees to get a better view of the river from the cottage. - Making a trail and a landing of some sort by the river to get down more easily (we placed chairs in the water). We will definitely be back!

Amazing weekend retreat!
If you are looking for a secluded, quiet holiday this is the place! There are many places to sit and read or relax. It's right on the river with hiking and biking trails very close by. And it has a huge firepit! We had an amazing time and hope to go again very soon!
