We had a wonderful stay at Riverside Resort in Qualicum Beach. It is very family-friendly, and our detached one-bedroom cottage was comfortable and private. We especially enjoyed the firepit, barbecue, and outdoor dining area. The mini golf was a lot of fun, and the outdoor pool and waterslide were a big hit with the kids. It’s a great place for a relaxing family getaway!
My children walked into our room (1 bedroom split level) and were blown away, they said this was the best place we've ever stayed. And for context, last summer we stayed at a Disney World hotel. It was great, thank you!
Great staff, very friendly and helpful. The whole place is great for kids in the summer. Pools were great, kids loved the waterslides. Room was clean, bed was comfy. Having a full kitchen and bbq was fantastic. Would definitely stay again.
I was not expecting much when I booked the Resort just needed a place to sleep for the night. I did not realize they had as many things to do for our little one definitely going to go back soon and take advantage of all they have to offer.
Park is VERY family friendly, everything everywhere. Rooms are fully stocked with kitchen equipment for a comfortable stay, stove, BBQ, oven mitts.
Everything is well used but not run down.
Buildings are all painted with beautiful murals AND the artists are all given credit!! I was so happy to see the plaques with the artists info on them!
Staff was nice and the hotel is well maintained in general. Only bad experience was at the end because they pretend to charge me $50 for an spoon and a stained hand towel. I think it's exagereted.
My sister and I rented cabins for my father’s 75th birthday and it was a great place to do it! We used to come to Riverside as kids and it was awesome to bring our families back to the place we all had such fond memories of. Nostalgia overload! The water slides were fantastic as well as mini golf! So much to do, wonderful backyards and a common charcoal bbq area was a great addition. Pet friendly and everything was well kept. All the staff was fantastic…but Dennis was the GOAT! We’ll definitely stay again! Can’t wait for next time!
Thanks Riverside!
