The cabin was clean and cozy, right on the beach. Staff was welcoming (young gentleman who recently started, as he said), gave us very good info about the resort and the activities available. Dog friendly (please call ahead!). Coffee machine did not work, so giving 4 stars. Would definitely stay again if in the area.
it was clean and self check in after hours was straight forward

The small beach was lovely, beautiful sunsets, kayaks and canoes available. Restaurant on site. Friendly servers - food ok. It would have been nice to have more healthy options. I stayed one night - bed was ok.
The recent renovations have made this place a very nice stay. The attached restaurant/bar is also very convenient. And the live band they had playing there while we stayed (Tripolar) was one of the best shows i've ever seen.
I would stay here again.
We were expecting the room to be a little more cozier. The lighting was not good and there was no bath plug to take a bath. It was pretty rustic and had a nice view, just not from the motel room. We at least got to enjoy the canoe for free but the motel is too close to the main road. It would have been nicer if it were deeper in the woods. Still had a great time and conveniently close to 2 provincial parks where we an fish and hike.
Riverdale Resort offers budget-friendly charm with unbeatable views. Cozy rooms, impeccable facilities, and attentive staff make it an ideal retreat for nature enthusiasts seeking serenity without breaking the bank.
We came on a day when the on property restaurant is closed (Sunday and Monday). The owner was very prompt and sent us details for self check in. We had a big room with two queen beds. Very comfortable beds and linens. We had access to the river and their canoes and kayaks. The owner went above and beyond in helping us out with an item that we forgot in room after checkout. They are a blessed and a kind soul.
Great rooms and lovely staff. The restaurant opened early and had delicious and affordable breakfast options! Our room had a beautiful view of the French River.
World class view in a beautiful spot.
It has all the amenities you could ever want for a summer vaction.
The staff were lovely, and so were the other guests. So happy we stayed here.
