Wonderful hosts and property! Great communication, directions and was stocked with everything we needed. We hope to visit here again when there's not a Nor'Easter happening to enjoy more outdoor time! The views were still amazing and saw dolphins and cranes from the deck! Thank you, Dale!!

Tranquil and beautiful setting. House is as advertised in a fantastic location. Beds were comfortable, everything was reasonably clean. Kitchen was well stocked. Enough seating on both levels for the guests. Deck is wonderful for relaxing, star gazing and viewing sunsets and sunrises. Sound of river can lull you into sense of calm and peace.

Had smooth check in and check out. The view was spectacular. The house was fully stocked. We enjoyed our stay for the long weekend. As this winter was cold, downstairs temperature was little uncomfortable as two bedrooms are downstairs.

Thank you for the kind words. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit. And, yes your visit coincided with coldest temperatures of this winter. I believe the temperature was in single digits during your stay. Come back for a visit in the Spring or fall, it won’t be near as chilly. 😊 Thank you again for staying at The Rivah House

A great weekend

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Dale was great at communicating about the property. The views are incredible and there is a nice beach within 5 minutes walk where my son and I enjoyed looking for shark teeth and other fossils. We would definitely return and recommend to others looking for a quiet escape by the water.

Another fantastic stay!

We absolutely love coming to the Rivah House—it’s a perfect home for a family trip! We love relaxing at the house and enjoying the perfect view of the Potomac from the second floor deck, and Shark Tooth Beach is a 5 minute walk down the street. Dale is a fantastic host who communicates well and makes check in/check out super easy. We always look forward to our trips here and can’t wait to come back!

Fantastic Stay

Our family had another fantastic stay at this wonderful house with an amazing view! It’s our favorite place to stay—it has the best water view with amazing sunsets and all kinds of birds, and it’s right down the street (5 minute walk) from Shark Tooth Beach, which is a wonderful location where our son can search for fossils and enjoy the water. The host/owner was very communicative and super helpful, and the house was clean with a perfect layout, and had everything we needed. We can’t wait to come back for another stay as soon as we can!

Great house - exactly as described !

The 'Rivah House' was exactly as described in the listing. It was very clean and nicely decorated. It had all the conveniences we could want including 3 full bathrooms. The beds were very comfortable and we all slept great! The river views are just gorgeous. This was a perfect get-away and Dale was very helpful and sent helpful information to us each day. Would highly recommend !

Incredible River View

We really enjoyed our stay and Dale's hospitality. We stayed on a very cold and windy January weekend but still had a great time and enjoyed the relaxing view of the river. The kids had a great time exploring the house, playing hide and seek and foosball. The adults enjoyed short walks to the beach and lake. There is a playground nearby in Westmoreland State Park too. The house was very clean and had all the basic items and supplies we needed to enjoy our stay.
