Riverfront Cottage with Hot Tub, Kayaks, Canoes, & Fishing Boats!

Cozy cottage on the Maumee River in Waterville, Ohio just a few miles from town. What folks like best about our property is the peace and quiet that comes from the islands that are right out your front door. There is a 12-mile-long wooded hiking and biking trail that abuts our property. Feel free to use our mountain bikes, kayaks, canoes, paddle boats, and even our electric fishing boat! My husband and I purchased the 12 cabins and cottages that are Riverwood 25 years ago so, let us know if you need a larger or even additional places to stay for family get-aways! Hope to see you soon!
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker and a safe.

Right on the River

This is one of the most beautiful places. It is right on the river and between two state parks, both within easy walking or biking distance. They have bicycles, canoes, kayaks, hot tubs, and fire rings. The cottage was spacious and clean with a picture window facing the river. The hosts were kind and easy to communicate with. I'm looking forward to going back and learning to kayak.

Riverwood Stay

We’ve stayed at Riverwood cabins twice and really enjoyed both visits. Cabins are nice and location is excellent. Very peaceful setting! We’re BGSU parents and proximity to campus is also great.

Lovely place

We had a wonderful time . However we all came home with poison ivy. We went to use the grill to cook out and both were filthy. We went and bought a grill brush to clean it . We left it there for the next renter. The hosts were wonderful and helpful. Lovely people Very relaxing

Perfect little get-a-way!

Just what we needed. Some quality family time. The host are super accommodating! We were in town for a soccer tournament and they let us come early and leave late. Could not have been more smooth.

Plumbing Problems

The cabin and owners are very nice. We were told to leave water to toilet shut off and that black stuff was in water. My dad and I used an old bowl from kitchen to subsidize tank water and to very fast showers. The water had black silt and smelled like an old aquarium. I was paranoid about smelling like that the whole weekend. We are not high maintenance at all. If the owner would have said, Hey, I know there is problems so I am refunding half your money, or anything, I would have understood. I waited a week to write this to see if they would. Also, an L-shaped couch, that does not fold out, does not sleep two adults. It should not even be considered unless it is a hide a bed. I left a note and I waited, this is fair.

Wonderful View from the Hot Tub

Inside of the house was very neat and clean, owners left some goodies in the kitchen for you, and hot tub on the back porch was amazing along with the view of the Maumee River. Only bad thing is the shower had almost no pressure at all. Other than that everything was perfect.
