Great location and comfortable!

We had a wonderful stay at Reno Riviera. The location is near Idlewild Park and some nice walking trails along the Truckee River. Everything was comfortable and convenient, as expected. The fenced in back yard was also great for our small dog.

Cozy house in a great location

We came to Reno to visit family and celebrate a big birthday! We've stayed in this house before and chose to stay again because it it so comfortable and well-appointed. The owner has thought of everything that one might need to make the stay comfortable. Check in was a breeze and the neighborhood is cute and close to downtown. It's a great house and we would definitely stay there again!

One of a kind beauty

We went to Reno for Thanksgiving week and stayed and the Reno Riviera Retreat. We chose this property after seeing the pictures online. It was even more amazing in person. The artistic touches and decorations throughout the house make this a unique experience. From the beautiful wood floors in patterns of different woods, to ceilings with mosaic times or stamped tin, the entire thing is an artistic experience. The kitchen is amazingly well stocked for any occasion, even a Thanksgiving feast. Josh, the host was wonderful. He communicated very well and made sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend this one of kind getaway.

A home away from home!

We stayed Riviera Reno while we were town for our niece’s graduation from nursing school. Everything about the home was perfect! The set up was great to have the extended family over for meals and there was everything we needed in the kitchen. We loved the backyard, the beds were super comfortable, and there were a lot of lovely touches in every room. We also loved the unique decor — so fun! You can tell this home was built with care!

The best ever

This is an amazing property and Josh is the best host ever. I was recently widowed and in the process of selling my house, I needed a retreat. The moment I walked in the door, I smiled and felt at home. I loved every minute in this truly unique house. Perfect for couples or single folks. Beautiful yard, great location and a truly amazing experience.

Fun Reno visit

We had a great visit. The house was artsy, clean, comfortable, and well stocked with all the necessities. The owner is very easy to work with. The location was perfect for day trips. We enjoyed grilling and eating outside on the pretty patio. We had a nice walk by the river each evening. We highly recommend this place and would definitely stay again! Thanks!

Beautiful Home

Alyce was a wonderful host. It felt like we were staying in a friends home. She met us at the house to show us around and was very easy to get ahold of with questions we had. The house is gorgeous and very unique. We will hopefully be staying here again and would recommend this home to others.
