What guests think
Travellers describe Rustic Riverfront Retreat w/ Hot Tub + River Access + Views as a scenic, comfortable riverfront cabin with very clean interiors, thoughtful amenities, and responsive hosting, making it a relaxing base for families and groups.
Common highlights include the hot tub, deck and dock for riverside lounging, and an elevator some found useful, while a few noted tricky kayak launching, occasional outdoor patio cobwebs/leaves, and an early checkout policy. Guests like the spacious layout, big windows, river views, and rustic decor, though some mentioned limited mirrors upstairs, high beds or basic pillows, and a TV positioned far from most seating. The waterfront setting works for Bucknell and Knoebels visits, but one guest found the Bucknell drive longer than listed, and a nearby town offers easy access to groceries and food. Expect a well-equipped river cabin focused on scenery and relaxation.

Pictures don't really do justice to this amazing place. Beautiful log cabin with the modern amenities including the hot tub spa, deck overlooking the river and the mountain. We spent most of our time at the deck and the patio. We brought a couple of inflatable stand-up paddle boards with us. We were in the water during the daytime swimming and kayaking. I have been to many of these places over the years. This home surely was one of the best.

We rented this beautiful home to host a 90th birthday gathering for my dad. Thank you to the host for allowing this! It was absolutely perfect! The open space, large kitchen and lots of counter space was so nice. The elevator was also a great thing to have! It made our move in/out so much easier. Loved the big windows looking out to the river and the snow made it magical! All rooms were big and comfortable. Plenty of storage in all closets and a huge pantry to accommodate all your food items. We couldn’t have found a more perfect place to enjoy our family time!!! We will definitely stay here again!

This cabin is a very beautiful property right on the waterfront and the view of nature, the mountains and the Susquehanna River are exceptional. There are a few things that still can be improved with the cabin to make it perfect which is to make it where you can kayak right off of the property or dock. Most people cannot lift their own kayak out of the water onto the boat dock from this property because there is no real ramp to roll a kayak into the water and this property has a drop that is quite a few many feet making the current setup too troublesome & unsafe. It’s fine for fishing but NOT to put a kayak directly into the water which we were really looking forward to doing. Also there should be written instructions on how to use the pellet stove and the elevator because the door on the second floor did not open for the elevator and that would’ve made it very convenient to bring groceries, luggage & supplies in and out of the home for those who are 60+ yrs in age. Besides these two concerns, the cabin is really lovely, very peaceful, and absolutely stunning.

The River House is a beautiful property. It is a gorgeous log home with the Susquehanna River as the backyard. The home was very clean and comfortable. The entire property is calm and relaxing. My husband was able to fish right on the river bank which was one of the main reasons for this trip. We also enjoyed the hot tub. We would definitely return for a stay in the fall. Thank you!

Overall it was a great space with all the amenities listed. Plenty of room. The buffalo / racoons hanging from the walls were a bit weird, but were also fully disclosed so not a surprise. If it is rainy, the backyard gets muddy and not convenient to get to the firepit. There were plenty of spare towels in the primary bathroom. The TV was very far from most of the living room seating. That may not matter for every one, but if you are trying to watch a movie together it is a little far. The town nearby has food, groceries, etc. very easily accessible. All of this said, it was a fantastic place and stay.

We had a wonderful weekend in this spacious cabin for Susquehanna's Graduation. Only complaint was the lack of mirrors in the upstairs bedrooms. We had multiple people getting ready at the same time and there was only 1 mirror (in the bathroom) on the second floor. Easy fix! We would stay here again.

Easy self check-in and great communication from the host.

There are a few things that still can be improved with the cabin to make it perfect which is to make it where you can kayak right off of the property or dock. Most people cannot lift their own kayak out of the water onto the boat dock from this property because there is no real ramp to roll a kayak into the water and this property has a drop that is quite a few many feet making the current setup too troublesome & unsafe. It’s fine for fishing but NOT to put a kayak directly into the water which we were really looking forward to doing. Also there should be written instructions on how to use the pellet stove and the elevator because the door on the second floor did not open for the elevator and that would’ve made it very convenient to bring groceries, luggage & supplies in and out of the home for those who are 60+ yrs in age. Besides these two concerns, the cabin is really lovely, very peaceful, and absolutely stunning.

Overall it was a great space with all the amenities listed. Plenty of room. The buffalo / racoons hanging from the walls were a bit weird, but were also fully disclosed so not a surprise. If it is rainy, the backyard gets muddy and not convenient to get to the firepit. There were plenty of spare towels in the primary bathroom. The TV was very far from most of the living room seating. That may not matter for every one, but if you are trying to watch a movie together it is a little far. The town nearby has food, groceries, etc. very easily accessible. All of this said, it was a fantastic place and stay.

The listing pictures tell the story. The home is clean and comfortable, decorated and furnished in a fun way, and provides all you need for a relaxing riverside retreat or an adventurous vacation. This property also serves as a convenient hideaway for Bucknell University events. Of all the rental properties we've stayed at over the years, this was one of our favorites. Easy self check-in and great communication from the host.

The River House is a beautiful property. It is a gorgeous log home with the Susquehanna River as the backyard. The home was very clean and comfortable. The entire property is calm and relaxing. My husband was able to fish right on the river bank which was one of the main reasons for this trip. We also enjoyed the hot tub. We would definitely return for a stay in the fall. Thank you!

Had a great time the property was just what we were looking for. Caught a lot of fish off the dock, enjoyed both the hot tub/fire pit, and the inside of the house was great.

We had a wonderful stay here. We were in town for a swim meet at Bucknell University and thoroughly enjoyed fishing and relaxing by the river in our downtime. One small note is that the listing says that it is 15 mins from Bucknell University and it is no less than 25 minutes from there. It will not stop us from coming back but worth noting if you are making frequent trips that way like we did. An amazing property - we can't wait to stay here again next year when we're in town for the meet!

Would have rated experience an excellent if outside patio area was cleaned up. Couldn’t sit out because of spider webs and dead leaves.

We had a wonderful weekend in this spacious cabin for Susquehanna's Graduation. Only complaint was the lack of mirrors in the upstairs bedrooms. We had multiple people getting ready at the same time and there was only 1 mirror (in the bathroom) on the second floor. Easy fix! We would stay here again.
