We stayed here for a couple of nights while visiting family nearby. Everything was as described - clean, comfortable, and you could tell they really valued their customers - they left lots of goodies and treats for us and we really appreciated it. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Home!

We loved our weekend stay at Riverside Retreat! The house had all the essentials including bath and kitchen items. The home sits just feet from the walking path, it was easy to take my little one for a stroller ride! We loved being close to the river. It was a relaxing and peaceful weekend! We will be back!

Excellent

We truly enjoyed our stay. The short walk to town and the location of the bike trail made the location very convenient for our stay. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the snacks that were provided and were very impressed with all the toiletries, cooking utensils, and blankets. We hope to come back again soon. We would highly recommend the Riverside Retreat.

Exceeded expectations

Our family had a wonderful stay at Riverside Retreat. The house was perfect for our family of 4. Everything was so well maintained. The property and river access was such a nice bonus, my kids loved going down to the rocky beach. Also loved the proximity to town, we were able to walk to dinner!!

Perfect Location

There are not enough superlatives to describe this home. Literally steps from the little Miami trail. Three separate lovely outdoor spaces to hang out/eat meals. Was so fun sitting there watching people go by on the trail. The house inside is beautiful and there were so many nice extra little touches Throughout the house. Super clean. Even a fancy LED board with scrolling information. Just a short walk on the trail to acute little town of Loveland. We only stayed two nights, but wish it had been longer as it was relaxing. We never even ventured down to the river but having private access from the rental is another major bonus. Highly highly recommend. We will definitely be telling our friends about this place and if ever in the area will stay here again for sure!

Why they chose this property

Incredible property in a very desirable area - we couldn't pass up the rare opportunity to own one of the only homes in Loveland that is directly on the trail AND has acreage with river access! We are so grateful we got the opportunity to own this home and property and love being able to share it with you :)

What makes this property unique

Walk out the back door and straight onto the Little Miami/Loveland Bike Trail. Walk out the front door and across the field to the Little Miami River's edge. I don't know of another property like this one anywhere!

Located approx. 15 miles (15-20 minute drive) from the Warren County Sports Park where the 2022 World Ultimate Frisbee Championships will be held. We welcome our guests coming into town for this event!
