Testimonials

With Covid crisis looming, and a need to have a safe change of scenery, we thought we’d take a drive up from Hot Springs, AR and stay socially distanced while enjoying sone fishing. I had been forewarned that the river may be high and running fast. A referral from my brother brought us to meet Jim and Liz at River Ridge. Our ‘cabin’ was a full house with master king bed downstairs in addition to a beautiful sleep lift upstairs as well as a fold out futon in the master bedroom. Our deck provided a gas and a charcoal grill. The neat view of the river and the fishing dock was gorgeous and although we caught zero fish, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on the gorgeous grounds. The place was immaculate, extremely comfortable and Jim very helpful with fishing tips (we are both novices). A lot of privacy complimented by the rushing river and changing fog below. We hope to travel back and learn some new tricks if there’s room for us in the fall. I understand corporate retreats take place here at The River Ridge Flyfishing Academy. Thoroughly recommend!! Great time. Many thanks to our lovely host and hostess.

Cabin was very clean, and the grounds along the river are lovely and perfectly maintained. The owner could not have been more helpful with making sure we had everything necessary to grill on the deck.

We had viewed the location online and came down to see it in person, it was everything advertised and more. Jim and Liz were wonderful hosts and showed us around. I could sit and watch the river go by for hours. Very quiet and comfortable stay. Everyone we came in contact with during our time in the area was friendly and willing to answer any questions you might have.

We were guests at the River Ridge Inn in August of 2019. Folks, I highly recommend this property. Jim and Liz were wonderful hosts and very accommodating. We stay in the Riverside Chalet and it had everything we needed. My wife said it was almost like being at home but better. This was my wife's first fly fishing outing and other than they generated the whole time, we had a great time with Lori Solas and her husband as guides. It was our first time here but it won't be our last. Worth every penny.

These cabins and lodge are meticulous and in a prime location. The owners/managers could not be nicer. Cute accommodations that are spotless!! Boat dock right on the Norfork River and very convenient to downtown Norfork.

Jim and Liz helped me plan a surprise vacation for my husband and kids and grandkids. The Lodge was lovely, the fishing exquisite, and we all had an amazing time full of memories. Everyone said it was the best fishing of their lives from the oldest experienced anglers to the beginning kids. His instructor guides weee so professional and kindly. Can’t say enough.

This was a great location ran by a wonderful host! This place was right on the river. The restaurants near by and the scenic views made it for a great romantic getaway in Arkansas. If you love the outdoors like I do and like to fish for trout then you should give this place a try.
