Resort Amenities

Here at the Riverside we want you to have that old-fashioned vacation you remember from childhood… but maybe with just a few more perks.


***Pool opening date for the upcoming season is May 2nd, 2025.***

*Heated indoor swimming pool and hot-tub/spa for relaxing and enjoying a swim- no matter the weather outside. The pool depth maxes out at a little over five feet and makes for an ideal family play spot or a refreshing break on a warm day.

*Outdoor seating: porch, patio and/or deck at every cabin (some covered, some open).

*A fenced children’s playground– perfect for when the little ones under age 12 need to expend that post-nap energy!

*Charcoal grills and picnic tables at each cabin and campsite.

*Kayak and canoe rentals on the Betsie River- complete with all gear and shuttle service.

*Multiple community fire-pits for relaxing and making both smores and memories (We provide a complimentary bundle of wood for each nightly.)

*A well-kept fish cleaning station and complimentary chest freezer space for their catch.

*Free high-speed internet Wi-Fi throughout the property, so you can check your email or tag us on social media!

*A multitude of board games, cards, dominoes, jig-saw puzzles, family-friendly DVDs (players in every cabin), and lawn games like corn-hole for all guests to enjoy.
