REVIEWS: > - "This has been our meeting place for many years. GLENN, our host, has been the reason we keep coming back. He takes care of all our needs and I can count on a well maintained property."
---------
We had a great time. The view of the River at this house just can't be beat. Photos do not do it justice. Also, We were very glad that the owner was around to help us with a medical emergency and was able to take my mother to the hospital. It turned out ok, but could have ruined our vacation. So, thank you Glenn for your help right when we needed it!!

" Glenn was an excellent host and very helpful. Great communication and assistance. The house was wonderful and the views from the backyard are great! Perfect location for Buffalo and Niagara Falls. " Chris

My fiancé and I stayed at the Niagara River Inn last winter. The house on the river is beautiful and the river was stunning with the ice and snow ! Glenn couldn't have done a better job in making sure we had everything we needed. Kitchens, bathrooms came fully stocked and there was plenty of entertainment provided. Glenn also provided us with a map of all the local hot spots including all of the best restaurants, grocery stores and tourist sites.
Thank you Glenn! Matthew Tennett Hartboro, PA

We spent one of the most enjoyable weekends we have had when we recently stayed at the Niagara River Inn to have a close view of the Grand Island Poker Run.
We would never have dined in local restaurants on Grand Island and appreciate Glenn's advice... it was spot on. Looking forward to spending a weekend there each summer.

Hi Glenn: Staying at your home made ALL the difference in our vacation to the Buffalo area for my niece's wedding. The home is ideally situated, spacious, well-stocked, and reasonably priced. We would definitely return on future trips to the area to visit my family. Thank you Glenn -- Sincerely ~ Marsha Grim Fullerton, CA

This home was awesome, staying right on the river was incredible, and close to Niagara Falls. We are looking forward to future visits. Terry Violette 26 View St Manchester CT

Moody & Smith family - This is a 5 star home ! The location was perfect. It is right in between Niagara Falls and Buffalo. It was very convenient for sightseeing. There were 9 of us aged 9 to 59. There was plenty to keep everyone occupied. The youngest loved fishing on the dock and swimming in the pool. The teenagers loved the pool and theater room. They all enjoyed smores at the firepit. The older ones enjoyed the deck overlooking the water watching the ducks, geese and the daily heron visit.
----------
The house was as described and more. We have been staying at vacation rental homes for over 15 years and this is by far the best stocked home we have stayed at. It has literally everything you will ever need. And, what a bonus to have Glenn as a host ! He let us borrow his computer as we forgot ours and gave us great advise on a super restaurant !
------------
We ate out but the kitchen was well stocked with everything needed including a bottle of wine, spices, coffee, filters and a complete array of pots and pans.
Glenn was a pleasure to work with. He is onsite and available to offer advise and take care of the pool and hot tub. THANKS GLENN FOR SOME WONDERFUL MEMORIES!!
-----------
We had a wonderful time & want to come back. Great vacation property and you have kept it up very well. We loved the Pool, Hot Tub, Foosball and Pool Table. Maps and all the extras are a very nice touch. And, thank you for the use of your computer !

Could not have found a better place to stay!
The Niagara River Inn made our trip memorable. Excellent place to stay with family and friends. Owner of the home, Glenn, is very kind and very helpful person. His kindness and care shows in every inch of the house. He provided us with great touring tips and also to loan us a computer. My husband forgot his laptop and we could not thank Glenn enough since he loaned us his laptop. We enjoyed the hot tub, grilling and sitting by the river. Very peaceful, well maintained property right on the Niagara river.
My kids 4 year old and 2.5 year old keep asking me when are we going back.
My sister was visiting me from India for 3 weeks and this trip was the best memory that she could carry with her back home...thanks to Niagara River Inn.
*****
Whoa, nice view Our stay in November was great. The view of the River is great and the location could not be better. The house offers more than any others and we enjoyed the firepit by the water and TV that is huge, a very nice feature. I recommend it

Amazing place and view…
My wife and two daughters (7 & 4) wanted to get away and this place was perfect. The view was incredible and it had ample towels, supplies, and just about anything you could need. The owner Glen was incredibly nice and accommodating. The place was only a few minutes to Niagara and other destinations we wanted to visit. If you’re visiting Niagara from the US side, I highly recommend it.

Communications with Glenn were seamless from booking the property to check in and check out. The property has literally everything that any family could need while they are there including a bottle of welcome wine. The pool was such a great asset especially for the heat and a 9 yr old grandson. Easy to get to Niagara Falls and Lewiston. His maps and tips were greatly appreciated.

Great staycation!
We really loved staying in Glen's home! The amenities were wonderful and we spent tons of time in the hot tub! It was nice to be able to have so many different things to do JUST in the place we were staying. Pool/fooseball/games! We even brought a nintendo and hooked it up to play in the theater room. Overall we would definitely stay here again. We plan to return sometime in the summer months with our families.

Great place. Room for the whole family which was my wife and I, our grown children, and grandchildren. Dock for fishing, nice pool. Large common room for eating and games. Pool table and foosball. All bedrooms were nice. Fire pit as well for s'moresGlenn was great with communication and was available for anything needed. Towels, linens, and cooking stuff were all provided. We had a bad weather day but there was enough space that being stuck inside most of it wasn't bad. Nice quiet location on Grand Island but anything you could want is within a short drive.
