What guests think

Travellers describe Rivers Rest Resort as a clean, recently updated, riverside spot with friendly, accommodating staff and a relaxed RV park and marina setting, offering scenic views, ample parking, and an on-site restaurant that many found excellent.

Guests consistently praise overall cleanliness and upkeep. Several reviews mention bright exterior lighting and inadequate blinds, making rooms too light at night. Rooms feel modern, some are small, and opinions on bed firmness vary. Expect a peaceful, scenic stay a bit removed from town with welcoming service.

The riverside views were amazing. Can imagine that later on in the season when the pool is open and the area more crowded, that it may not be as quiet.

Dissapointing to say the least, for $144 dollars a night i definitely expected more. The fridge is smaller than a cooler youd take to a barbecue, and there is no microwave in the room. What a joke. Therw is a "community" microwave in the laundry room. If it wasnt for the person i had staying with me i wouldve done a chargeback with my card immediately. Look somewhere else.

We had a bass tournament and our club members went out of the property. The staff was awesome from check in and check out. The waters were very accommodating caught some nice fish not real big though. We will definitely return.

Such a beautiful property on the Chickahominy River that is so well maintained and updated. My room was fresh and clean with plenty of towels for my 2 day stay. The adjoining restaurant "The Blue Heron" was fantastic! Unfortunately, the internet was down for my entire stay and I was unable to watch TV and had a difficult time using my laptop and phone. Additionally, the wood blinds do not provide a lot of coverage, so the lights from the parking lot keep the room very bright during the night. Thankfully, I was still able to get a good night of sleep. The staff is incredibly friendly and responded to every request with a sense of urgency. I would definitely stay here again!

I am a female solo traveler with my dog. This was a great affordable place to stay in the Williamsburg area. About 30 minutes to all the attractions. It is a small hotel located in an RV park and marina area. Absolutely beautiful place! The parking lot lights at night are very bright and the blinds do not block the light. My only complaint.

Rooms

Newly renovated and modern, with several comments about small room size and pleasant river views. A recurring issue is bright rooms at night due to exterior lights and limited blackout coverage; bed firmness feedback is mixed.

The property is very quaint and well maintained however, it’s so bright at night. They need to invest in black out curtains that fit the windows or cut down on the outdoor lighting.

Hotel description is deceiving, we had no idea our resort was an RV resort. Pictures of the rooms showed wood flooring but our room had a concrete floor.

Nice, clean, recently renovated. Some people might not like the stiffness of the beds, but we loved it. The rooms are small but have everything needed and easily fit 3 people. Probably some drapes would help to keep the room darker in the night. We’ve also enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the Blue Heron restaurant.
