RIVERSONG RETREAT AT SNOWATER



Ski days, pool time, and quiet evenings beside the fireplace. Riversong Retreat brings together the best of a Mt. Baker mountain getaway and the comfort of having indoor recreation right where you're staying.



Set among the evergreens at Snowater, this two bedroom, two bathroom condo welcomes up to four guests. Spend the day exploring Mt. Baker, walking along the Nooksack River, or simply enjoying the community's heated indoor pools, hot tubs, sauna, and recreation facilities.



When it's time to slow down, return to a comfortable living space with vaulted ceilings, forest views, and a cozy fireplace.



THE LIVING SPACE



Large windows bring natural light into the vaulted living room, creating an inviting place to relax after a day outdoors.

With indoor recreation available throughout the colder months, there's plenty to enjoy even when the weather encourages a slower day.

Great getaway to relax and ski

Everything was as described on the website. Great space for a small family, we were two adults and a child. Personally, I think it would be a bit tight for more people with all the ski gear as there isn't much storage space. Loved the fireplace and how quickly the space warmed up, the surrounding area was beautiful, and having access to a pool and hot tub was a just perfect after skiing during the day.

Great Stay

We stayed at Riversong for a weekend ski trip to Mt Baker. The location was the best you can get since no other rentals are further up that highway. Nice little condo with a fireplace and full galley style kitchen. The clubhouse was right next door with pool, hot tub, pool table, ping pong and racquetball court. Probably come back next year.

Amazing place and extremely helpful in difficult situations!

The property was amazing! The place was comfortable and on top of it, they have a swimming pool, plus other activities in their club house. The location of it was also really good, since it's so close to Mt. Baker. The day we checked-out it had rained so much and the road was closed due to flooding. Tara was amazing in communicating with us and letting us stay an extra night. They also provided us with information on where to get more groceries and where to look up road closures. It was a relief having them as our hosts, really helpful - especially when having two small kids and a dog with us! Thanks for everything!

This was a great little place, my only complaint would be the room was unbearably hot and the wifi wasn’t great at all and we had some complications where we needed to contact the property management and it was a struggle, as there’s no service either. (Which is totally fine when you know what you’re doing!) Otherwise, cute, clean, comfortable and very well taken care of. Would highly recommend.

4/10 Poor

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Check-in, communication
We did not receive check-in instructions the day before arrival, and there is absolutely zero cell phone coverage in the entire town, so we were unable to get those instructions until the office was almost closed. After snowboarding all day, we had to go to a local restaurant to use their Wi-Fi in order to access the instructions that were only sent the afternoon of check-in. That is far too late to safely. Allow one to check in when the office closes at five and there is no other way to enter the rental. Secondly, the Wi-Fi password that we were given was completely wrong, so even after we checked in and entered the building, we had no Internet access or ability to communicate with anybody since there is no cell service in town or at the facility. The location was perfect, the amenities were fabulous, but the communication and check-in procedures were unsafe and terribly inconvenient. Very stressful, and not how you want to spend your vacation. If you rent from them, make sure they send you the check-in instructions at least 48 hours before you arrive in that town. I would’ve thought they would know better.

A great weekend getaway!

This property was the perfect set up for our family of four and our two dogs. The home itself was lovely except for the broken washer and drier. The location is exceptional, right next to the pool and club house and easy access to the trails. The only negative of our stay was at check in when the lock box code didn’t work. Fortunately we were able to reach staff after hours and get into the property after only a 20 minute delay. Truly a wonderful experience with this rental. We plan on returning soon!

Cozy Modern Clean and so much fun

We loved staying at this condo! It’s a perfect place to stay when skiing at Baker. Everything was perfect - loved the tonys coffee and small details that went into the stay. The only negative is that the washer/dryer needed repair. Completely perfect otherwise and can’t wait to come back one day. Thank you for making our stay so amazing. The grounds at snowater are stunning to walk around and kids loved the pool.
