Ok... we can't hold back our love for this place! When we do a staycation in MN... we venture here! Stillwater is far enough away and a special treat for us. Perfect place with great restaurants/ cocktail bars and things to do. Not to mention the Rivertown Inn! It's been a few years since we've stayed here and we opted for the Oscar Wilde room. We will be back to stay here again! The others rooms we've stayed at in the past have also been beautiful, but this one takes the cake! Another perk to this place is the breakfast made by their phenomenal vegan chef. I don't eat pork and she whips up an awesome meal that makes me wish she could cook for me daily. I could easily be vegan with her help! The staff or caregivers that help us each time or super helpful and make our stay even better. Thanks again for another visit and we will be back!

We have stayed here three times now, our goal is to check out every room in the house !! You will not be disappointed! The attention to detail in this home is beautiful the owners take much pride in this home and knows how to keep everything to almost as if it was the original to the home. Larry the manager of the property has been so SO wonderful to us and remembers us! not kidding we plan on staying in every room! We LOVE the chef !! Always a pleasure! And unique dishes! Thank you for that! I wish I captured more photos of our stay and I have uploaded photos a in the past of our Agatha Christie, Doyle room and the home but pictures does NOT do it's justice! Love LOVE our stay here every time I!

Simply breathtaking. We checked ourselves in after letting the person I spoke to on the phone know we may be running a little bit late to check in. Easy accommodation, and not altogether knowing what to expect was blown away. After finding our room (The Lord Byron Suite) it was so relaxing just to go down to the lobby and pour a couple of glasses of complimentary wine and park up in the lobby to relax and soak in the atmosphere. The whole place feels like art history. The room, service, and food was more than expected and absolutely wonderful. We cannot wait to go back someday soon.

Spectacular Bed and Breakfast!! I've stayed in many and this has been by far the best of the best! Only the coolest place in town! If your looking to book, this must be booked in advance! We booked ours six or seven months in advance, we stayed in the Agatha Cristie room! Well worth every penny! The Experience alone was amazing ! When we checked in an hour later happy hour/social hour was refreshing to begin the night before dinner. Have your your key to enter the house and your rooms after hours was nice to have. None of the room of have TV, which to be honest having that disconnection from the social world is super nice! Each room has it's own coolest and cute features, and nice to have a robe to climb into! We woke up with a knock on our door with French press coffee and morning treat before our three course breakfast ! Out in the garden side. Pictures uploaded !

Wow. This place is a gem! I'm so glad my husband brought me hear for my birthday. We stayed in the Oscar Wilde suite which was luxurious and romantic. Almost all of the lights were on dimmers that you could adjust (very wonderful). The toilet was in it's own room and the bathtub was huge. The bed was a big crazy (angled), but definitely unique and fun. Also, my husband informed them it was my birthday and we received complimentary cupcakes which where waiting under perfect little domes for us in our room. At the social hour (where there is wine and appetizers), the manager was kind enough to come over and open a bottle of cider for me as he'd noticed in our reservations that I'm currently pregnant. This was a very kind touch and it was much appreciated. The breakfast was amazing! We had a three course meal consisting of a Quinoa Oat Cranberry Muffin with fruit and yogurt (my favorite), Blueberry Pancakes, and Frittata. It was brought out to us on the porch course by course.The inn is easily in walking distance of downtown Stillwater, so it was only maybe a 7 minute walk to get to the restaurants down there for dinner. If I had any complaints at all, it would be that the house across the street has about 8-10 chairs that face the inn and seemed to almost constantly be filled with men sitting in them and staring out at the inn. Not sure what was going on over there, but it was odd and a bit eerie. I don't fault the inn for this as you can't exactly choose your neighbors, but it's just something I noticed.

This is a very, very nicely restored and upgraded property. Inside main house, clean, artfully and timely decorated. Yet very comfortable and welcoming, not hands off and stuffy. Outside the grounds well utilized with fountains and areas to socialize. We stayed at the top floor, very comfy, impressive. The attention to the restoration and quality building materials noted. You can tell the ownership or management of the property have an eye for detail and high standards. The informative staff are great, willing to talk as much or as little as you need too. Stillwater has a gem here. The other guests, well they are good fun people just like you. Celebrating a milestone or just getting away and taking it all in. Oh, the piano plays like a dream. No CNN , just the important things in life, like the loved one you brought and the memories you will make.Thank you Rivertown.

OMG this was the most gorgeous experience I've ever had (well, I was 20 at the time, so that's not probably saying much, but still, AMAZING).Rivertown Inn has absolutely beautiful interiors and they have restored/refurnished the house with the most opulent and authentic furniture/fixtures I've seen almost anywhere. Every inch is the real deal.I stayed in the Lord Byron suite and while his life is more than enough inspiration for what to do with the giant bathtub, I could seriously imagine old Lord B kickin' back with some opium on the four poster bed. The chef here is amazing, too. His breakfasts were romantic and delicious, full of savory goodness and I often have tasty dreams about the blueberry muffin that I had (which, I have to say, he put in a bag for me to take to the hospital when I figured out had mono during our stay). How nice is that?A great mini-vacation close to home. I would say I would go back, because I'd totally love to, but boy I went here with and I didn't end up working out... so going back would be awkward... And now this review is awkward... I apologize.Props to the Rivertown Inn though!

The Rivertown Inn is a gorgeous, luxurious B&B. For my wife's birthday, we stayed in the Agatha Christie room, a room modeled after a luxurious sleeping car on the Orient Express. For Agatha Christie fans or railroad buffs, this room is sure to be a hit. The rest of the B&B was equally beautiful. Breakfast was delicious as was the coffee. Service was perfect.

My wife and I stayed here to celebrate our 15 year anniversary. We spent the night in the Agatha Christie suite and it is worth every penny. Amazing attention to detail and great amenities. We will be back, and look forward to spending many more nights in this suite!

The Rivertown Inn was absolutely enchanting. My husband and I were married at the end of June in a small intimate ceremony. They for the chairs ready for us and helped us out with all of the little details. Elise is FANTASTIC. I'm a little OCD with planning things and she checked in with me and put up with our crazy crew. We stayed in the Agatha Christie room, the grand suite, and it was amazing. Put together, clean, and gorgeous. It had its own little patio as well. The three course gourmet breakfast was to die for. We will definitely be coming back!
