My husband and I spent Thanksgiving weekend at the Riverboat Inn. When we arrived, Zach was the only employee working and he was terrific! Checked us in and gave us the lowdown of the area. Later that evening there was live entertainment. Zach was also the bartender that evening and makes one of the best margaritas I’ve had in a long time! This young man is top notch! WE WILL BE BACK THIS SUMMER!

The place was amazing with beautiful views and charming artwork. The staff that we had the pleasure of meeting were incredible, especially Zach. He has to be one of the most pleasant young men I have met in my very long life. He truly brings joy to everyone he interacts with. Cannot wait to meet the owners on our next trip. We will be back when the weather is warm enough to truly enjoy the experience.

Business traveler
Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
This is a basic hotel, nothing exceptional about it. When I arrived, I was met by two young ladies at the desk, one possibly being trained, who were friendly, but failed to provide me a Wi-fi password, that later required another trip to the front desk to retrieve one as I found the room had no telephone. This also did away with the chance of an Early Wake-up Call the next morning. My room front door also had a gap underneath it, so large that sunlight could easily be seen. If this had been an internal room hotel, I could understand it. But, because of this, the next morning my room floor had seven or eight beetle type bugs roaming around by the bed area. For the price, I expected more and unless no other options are available, wouldn't return to this provider.

It was Ok.

A clean room and comfortable bed. We were in the Poolhouse so think of a tight European room with cinder block walls. If we had stayed more than one night then I would have been more concerned with the tighness and austerity of the room.
