Rivertime is a waterfront experience on the bank of the Ohio river. Located a few mins from Ashland KY, Ironton OH & 20 mins to Huntington WV. Once you make your way into the backyard you will quickly forget that you are in an Eastern KY residential area. The stunning view of the Ohio river & the Russell/Ironton bridge provides a mind blowing visual display. It’s often stated the view rivals the top landscapes & city skyline views from around the world. *A misting zone is added in the summer.
The RIVERTIME experience is waiting for you. We have created a getaway where relaxation is the focus by providing everything for you.

For the extra special occasion/celebration we love to try and help make your arrival as amazing as you dream of it being. In the past we have set up flowers, balloons and even started the fire for our guests. If you think of something that you'd like our help with, just let us know and we will do our best to make it happen.
We are usually available within minutes of contact even though we own and run several businesses here in the area. We live next door @ 111 just on the other side of a RETRACTABLE PRIVACY FENCE that allows for a more private Rivertime experience. We have lived on the river for 9 years now and thought it was much to special of a place for us not to share it with the world. We hope you visit soon.
Being located in Downtown Russell (DTR) you’ll get to experience the relaxing lifestyle of not only being on RIVERTIME, but also “small town America” that millions dream about being part of. You’ll see kids riding bikes. People walking their dogs. People sitting on their front porches and waving to neighbors as they drive by. We also have “Ferry St.” where you can shop, eat, drink and create MEMORIES. It's all only a few minutes walk (1/2 mile away) along the riverbank. Eridanus Brewing and Dragonfly Cafe also located in DTR just had their 2nd bday and they are a local favorite. We're also blessed to have The Nest Spa. A luxurious full service spa with an amazing team. Please start the booking process as soon as possible because they stay full. Again, all of that and several other unique shops are just a beautiful stroll away.
Take a walk down Riverside Dr and see more of the amazing scenic views. Don’t be afraid to take your dogs too. As long as they play well with others because there’s always people out taking their best friends for a walk.
