About this property

Riverside Retreat, sit back and relax...:-)

It’s time to sit back and relax you’re on river time! This 1200 sqft apartment was designed for guests rest, relaxation and fun. Conveniently located near shopping, dining and outdoor activities although you may never want to leave the peace and relaxation. Take in the incredible views of the river from the comforts of patio furniture and umbrella while you watch the massive and majestic ships pass by. Take a steamy hot Sauna then jump into the river to cool off. Book a tour charter on a massive cabin cruiser and just sit back and relax! Breathtaking views in a beautiful apartment makes this an unforgettable riverside destination.

Was in town in the off season for sure (January for a funeral). One of the reasons I booked the place was the sauna. Was unable to access the sauna due to the high snow banks. When I requested that owner clear a path, he directed me to the shovel by the garage. Disappointing.

Beautiful location.

The house is a little dated but clean and in a great, safe location to explore Sault St. Marie. The owner was very friendly and accommodating.

The property is wonderful The view of the river and marine traffic is not to be missed. We tracked the ships and watched all of them we could. It was agood location for the falls and whitefish point. Not to mention the interesting So locks. We especially enjoyed the gas firetable and the bathroom up and down stairs. Great stay!

This was our second stay. It was as comfortable as we remembered. Everything was great and we couldn’t wait to watch the ships like we did last time. It’s a perfect location for that! We also appreciate having laundry available. We’ll be back for sure.

This is our 3rd (maybe 4th) stay at Riverside Retreat. If you want to view the freighters and/or enjoy the peace of the river, this is the place to do it! Location is perfect for checking out other things to see and do in the area. Very comfortable. Hope to be back in 2026!

The location is awesome. Lake freighters, cruise boats, etc, travel past going up bound and down bound. The living room windows offer full view. The upstairs bedroom is as charming as it can be. The location also allows for quick access to Soo shopping and tourist attractions. Love this place!
