Riverdog Retreat is so beautiful, so relaxing and so much more than you would ever expect it might be. It's beautiful in so many ways and the energy is amazing! If you enjoy the thought of a nice B&B with cozy beds, pretty walking trails and people who really care about giving you a great experience, you have found the... More

My son and I loved our stay-- spectacular wildflower walk, beautiful apartment-type accommodations. Spotlessly clean and well-kept. Our hosts had a loaf of fresh, home-baked bread in our kitchen for us, and their pets greeted us with wagging tails. I highly recommend the place for a visit to Oberlin. Will certainly stay there again if it's available for my next... More

What a discovery! We could not have been any happier with our RiverDog accommodations. Though there were plenty of things to do during our first trip to Oberlin, I can just as easily imagine never leaving the Retreat's property. Charming buildings, charming furnishings, charming hosts (even charming dogs), and the hands of artists everywhere in evidence. The art gallery in... More

Our second time staying at Riverdog was as perfect as our first. Terry & Deborah are perfect hosts: warm, helpful and welcoming. The accomodations are beyond wonderful: impeccably updated spacious accomodations next to a bubbling stream and secluded forest. Our suite had 3 large rooms including a country kitchen stocked with plenty of fresh fruit, home-baked bread, cereals, coffee/tea, and... More

We really just needed a place to stay for two nights while visiting our daughter at Oberlin College, but found the Settler's House at Riverdog Retreat to be so much more! On the way home we were talking about our stay, and saying that it could be a destination in itself - what a great place to spend a relaxing... More

My wife found and booked Riverdog as a birthday gift to me. We live only about an hour away, in eastern Cuyahoga County. Even though it was a relatively short drive away, Riverdog made for the perfect weekend getaway. We stayed in the Riverview Suite. It was Halloween weekend, and there were still some Fall colors. We could see and... More

My husband and I spent 2 lovely days at Riverdog Retreat. The Cedar House was perfect; very clean, attractive, unique, and homey. The bed, an important feature, was very comfortable. The owners of the property are artists, and the house was decorated with their artwork. It was very relaxing just sitting around and looking at it. The property was restored... More

My girlfriend and I recently spent a romantic weekend at Riverdog in the cedarsuite. We are both working professionals, travel frequently, and are quite selective when it comes to accommodations. In fact, the previous month we stayed at the Glendorn, a 4-star Relais and Chateaux property, in Pennsylvania. We couldn't believe how unique and luxurious (think upscale rustic) our suite... More
