Riverbend is a beautiful property with the river running behind it. Enjoyed watching people fly fishing while walking my dog. It is a very pet friendly area. Lots of restaurants allow you to sit outside with your pet. The motel is within walking distance to everything.
Darlene, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Hotel shows its age. But the bed was comfortable, location was awesome, rates were reasonable and the staff was great. It is right on the river and there are swings so you can go sit by the water. They also have steps so you can access the water easier. Overall, my wife and I enjoyed our stay and would stay again at Riverbend.
