"My husband and I needed a relaxing weekend away. I found 1 and Only Riverside accommodations and am so glad we booked! The cottages were well appointed, a nice size, and had everything we needed available to us. All we needed to do was bring ourselves and a little bit of food. I was super happy that there was a hot tub in a screened-in covered porch since it rained all day Saturday. I spent much of my day going in and out of the hot tub simply relaxing and enjoying the surrounding views. Sunday ended up being a beautiful and sunny day and we were able to take out a kayak. Helped us to connect again as a couple and with nature! I would highly recommend these cottages for either couples looking for a relaxing weekend away or even for families with children."
