Roomy and restful
Great property with plenty of space for our group of old friends to reunite while also getting their own space, when needed. Private. Well-appointed; everything we could think of needing was provided. Spent lots of time just sitting down by the river.

Perfect Getaway!
Property was exactly if not better than described. Excellant communication- zero issues and zero surprises. The river access was awesome as well as the fire pit and the supplied firewood. The decks gave an awesome view and place to drink morning coffee or to visit after the late night fire. Can't say enough good things about this property and the owners. Thanks for sharing it!

Amazing UpNorth Home
The home and property far exceeded our expectations. The hosts provided so many amenities and “extras” that you wouldn’t normally expect at a VRBO (shampoo, condiments, firewood… to name a few). The location is central to so many beautiful areas. We can’t wait to come back.

Comfortable, roomy place on the Betsie
We had a great time! I've never traveled with dogs or my family, so I'm excited we were able to stay. The river was very accessible, and the kids had a great time wading in. The house was awesome, stocked with the best kitchen supplies I've seen yet. The beds were comfortable, and it felt like someone loves this place, rather than most generic rentals. We made a lot of new memories here.

Peaceful retreat with plenty of space
We stayed a week at the Riverhouse and it was excellent! The river was tranquil, there was room for everyone and the 4 seasons room was great space to be when the kids went to bed. Cindy was a gem to communicate with and was able to coordinate an early check in for tracking family members.The ONLY small quibble was from the kids as the the dart board and foose-hockey were not present and the air-hockey table was missing it's blower. We would 100% stay at the River House again and find it to be an amazing deal for all the space you get!

40th Anniversary Celebration
The place worked out well for us. The children enjoyed the property, especially the frog pond. The extra refrigerator in the basement and the beach chairs were greatly appreciated. The kitchen and dining room table are perfect for a large family. A few children's plates and cups (unbreakable) would have been helpful but we managed. The beds were comfortable except for one queen upstairs which was relatively hard. We brought kayaks and used them nearly every day putting in at Thompsonville and finishing at our frontage. Great Vacation and very Gracious Hosts! Memories made for years you come!
