Nice and cozy cabin. It’s a good stopover spot for a day or two. Dan is very helpful. I think, it’s not a bad choice to stay at Riverside Inn if you are heading to Algonquin!👍😊

We stayed at the end of September for 6 nights. The room was very cosy, comfortable and very clean. It was exactly what we were looking for, immersed in nature. The river behind the accomodation is great. Few minutes walk and there is a beautiful lake. It is easy to walk around to the few cafes and restaurants. 10mins drive from Algonquin west gate. Dan is a lovely host, full of great tips for your travel. We would highly recommend it

I booked a room at the end for a night before my Algonquin provincial Park trip. It was the perfect stop. Easy to drive back to Huntsville for dinner or any last-minute needs. Dan was super friendly and helpful. The room was basic, but comfortable. The bed was super comfortable. The vibe was awesome!

Simple clean room. Nothing fancy but all we needed for one night. Dan was very accommodating and he was willing to start a fire for us if we wanted. Lots of great family activities on site (volleyball net, football, bbq area etc.) Great trail behind the property to a scenic river spot.

A quite peacful stay in the woods

The experience was very good. Stayed in their luxury tent. It was raining through the night but the tents are built to last. The property is clean, well maintained. The staff is very coordial and helful. Close to Algonquin west gate, a 15k drive and you're there.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Dan, the host, is incredibly helpful and friendly. He's always available to assist with anything you might need. The luxury tent is perfect for city dwellers looking for a "glamping" experience, as it's equipped with amenities like hot water, electricity, and plenty of outlets. Dan was very responsive and quick to fix any issues that came up. The experience is about natural exposure, so don't expect a five-star hotel. I visited in late September, and while some nights were cold, others were warm. The area also allowed for a stunning stargazing experience. Dan also went above and beyond when our car had a problem. He gave us great advice and helped us out, even though he didn't have to. We really appreciated his kindness and assistance.
