Cottage on the Boardman River

Our stay at the cottage on the Boardman River was relaxing. The river flows right outside the cottage, making its way toward Grand Traverse Bay. The cottage is nestled in a bucolic setting, which adds to the overall peacefulness of the setting. If you decide to stay, bring a good book or your fly fishing gear--either route you won't be disappointed.

Scattered Family

The sylvan setting was beautiful, serene and restful. The bed was comfortable, the shower had hot, soft water and the towels were thick and fluffy. The flatware was early hunting camp but more than adequate for my breakfast and dinner. Most of all, it was possible to touch all the family in need of consolation.

Awesome Cozy Cabin on the River

We were very pleased with the accommodations. Everything was clean and well represented in the listing. It was so nice to build a fire with the river only 15ft away and just sit and listen to it flow. We had a nice coal and gas grill available as well as a stove/oven and microwave to cook on/in so we didn’t spend a lot of money eating out! We would recommend this place to any couple who want a little private getaway for the weekend or even a week!! We will definitely go back and have reserved it for next year’s anniversary!!

Wonderful River Cabin

We really enjoyed our stay here and meeting Tricia. She was very friendly and helpful. The cabin came with all the amenities we needed. It's location along the river is beautiful. We were close enough to stores and restaurants to not be inconvenienced. Trips to the nearby lighthouses, state and national recreation areas could easily be made.

Nice stay!

Great communication, assisted us with unexpected early check in, friend watching property was just SUPER! Was everything we needed for the stay. Folks, this a cabin on the river, if cobwebs/bugs or a bit of a musty smell, etc is going to bother you, this may not be the place for you. It was very clean otherwise, bathroom linens fresh and well appointed for our stay. Only negative was there wasn’t much for privacy. Neighbor was blowing leaves most of a day, a lot of time right outside the window. There is a dock across the river that people were frequently fishing from, staring directly in bay window (blind is there but tied in a fashion we did not feel it was intended to be lowered) and of course random kayakers going by. Not a big deal for us, but could be important to others. I would 100% stay again!

Found some inner peace

I booked the Rivershire to have peace at the one year anniversary of my husband’s passing. I knew I needed to be near water and in the woods as that’s where we found our peace and joy when together. I could not have asked for a more perfect setting. Tricia even left flowers from her garden and a beautiful card outside my door when she found out the reason for my stay.I slept 9-10 hours each of the 4 nights! That’s not like me at all, I’m lucky to get 7 most nights. Tricia’s book is a must read as well. I couldn’t be happier with my stay.❤️☮️

A cozy time with nature

This little cottage on the Boardman River offers the comforts of home with a lovely view of the Boardman River and all the nature that surrounds it. The cottage is clean and well appointed. The owner, Tricia Frey, made us feel welcome and assured us that she would be available if we needed anything. As it turned out, we had all we needed to enjoy our stay.

Our favorite part of the property was the deck and dock that extend into the river. Although there isn’t a lot of room on the property to explore, we went went up the road and enjoyed miles of hiking trails. The property is very peaceful and quiet and everything about the cabin was just as advertised. Would absolutely stay there again!

Qui vous reçoit ?

Vous êtes reçu par Tricia Frey

Image de profil de l’hôte
My name is Tricia Frey and I will be your host at Rivershire although you may never see me. My sister Sandra and I co-own the property and allow guests the space and quiet relaxation they desire without intrusion. Of course, if you need something, I am here to help and take care of any issues promptly.

We love the beauty and wonder of the Boardman River and enjoy kayaking, gardening, watching for wildlife, and relaxing by the river with a good book (and a glass of wine!) ... we know you will, too. (And no, you won't be expected to garden while you're here!) Please bring your own kayaks, canoes, or innertubes (these are not provided) or let the trusted folks at Ranch Rudolph (just a few miles up the road) take care of the details by providing kayaks and taking you four miles upstream for a lovely float back to the ranch to pick up your car. They also provide horseback riding.

I'm also the author of two books, both of which are set at Rivershire and feature two very special pets: a Sheltie named Sheldon and a Cat named Snickers. You can read all about them in my 2020 memoir River Love: The True Story of a Wayward Sheltie, a Woman, and a Magical Place Called Rivershire and its children's book counterpart Sheldon's Journey: The Story of a Sweet-Natured Dog in Search of His True Home. Copies of the books are in the cabin for your reading enjoyment.

If you're a writer or an artist, Rivershire is a great place for doing both. Bring your creative spirit!

We hope you make your way to Rivershire!

Tricia & Sandra

Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?

Rivershire is a magical place! The flowing Boardman River, stately pines and hardwoods, lovely gardens, and relaxed, natural setting make it the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

However, should you want hustle and bustle, nearby Traverse City has plenty to offer including a plethora of restaurants and shopping venues for every taste and budget, breweries, distilleries, and entertainment options galore. (Interlochen Center for the Arts is just 15 minutes away ... downtown Traverse City offers two historic, state-of-the-art movie theatres ... and Turtle Creek Casino is a 20 minute drive from here if you're feeling lucky!)

Did someone say beaches, dunes, boating, and wine? Walk a Lake Michigan beach or climb a dune at Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore ... both are just 45 minutes away. Grand Traverse Bay is 20 minutes north of Rivershire for beaches and boating. The area offers many small inland lakes for boating and floating, too. And both Old Mission and Leelanau peninsulas offer plenty of wineries, orchards, and stunning views.

And don't forget hiking and bike riding! Grand Traverse, Leelanau, and Benzie counties have more hiking and biking trails that we can count and all are an easy trip from Rivershire. As a matter of fact, Brown Bridge Quiet Area is just TWO minutes away and many other trails can be accessed within 5- 10 minutes. Bring your bike or go for a hike!

If that sounds like more effort than you bargained for, simply spend your lazy days by the Boardman River. Bring your own kayaks, canoes, innertubes, and fly rods for a leisurely river experience. Put your feet up. Read a good book. Pour a glass of wine.

And, with high speed internet on the property, your devices will run perfectly for streaming or whatever may be to your liking. We've got your covered.

We can't think of any reason why you wouldn't want to visit Rivershire!

Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?

Hmmm ... pretty much covered "unique benefits" in the space above, but how about this? You may see a couple of martens playfully running on the opposite bank of the river. How's THAT for unique? Who knows what else you may spot if you keep your eyes open. Don't forget to look up ... an eagle may just soar overhead. Magical!
