"This hotel was quiet, clean as can be, staff was helpful, the little 24 snack "store' was so great to use at our late night check-in, the breakfast in the mornings had plenty of choices, and the bed in the room was very comfortable. Plenty of fast food choices around the hotel and easy access to the Interstate. Would stay again."

"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. "
