Restaurant Worth The Drive

I absolutely loved my dining experience at Riverside! The seafood chowder was out of this world, and I don't even typically like seafood. Each time I've visited, it's been freshly prepared and served quickly. The variety of dishes was impressive, and I appreciated the reasonable prices. It's definitely a hidden gem worth the drive!

Lovely Pool Area

During my stay, I enjoyed some relaxing time in the pool and hot tub. Even though the hot tub jets didn't work perfectly, it was still warm and inviting. The hours of accessibility until 11 PM were a huge plus, allowing me to unwind after a day of exploring. It created a cozy atmosphere for relaxation.

Fun for the Kids

I traveled with my family, and the kids loved the pool area! There was plenty of space for them to play, and they really enjoyed the pizza from the restaurant. It's comforting to see that there are fun activities for everyone, making it a great place for families looking to unwind together.

I had a wonderful stay at Riverside Resort, enjoying the breathtaking views and charm of the older hotel structure. While my room was clean and spacious, I found the bed a bit too firm for my liking. Nonetheless, the friendly staff provided excellent service and valuable information about the area, making my first visit to New Brunswick memorable. Overall, it was a great stay and I would definitely return.

My recent stay at Riverside Resort And Conference Centre was enjoyable overall, with its beautiful riverside setting and friendly staff. though some aspects could use improvement. I appreciated the comfortable beds and decent dining options, but my cottage experience was marred by cleanliness issues and dampness.
