| Imagine sitting by a slow flowing river with the coals of a dying campfire capturing your gaze. The breeze off the river is cool & mixes comfortably with the fading warmth of the embers. As the sun sets over the H2O your mind wanders to the time available to simply reflect. No phones, no loud neighbors, no blaring boom boxes,...just the twitter of the evening fauna & the the crackle from the fire. These moments are what stress management tries to emulate. Why settle for the synthetic when the real can be yours? Whether you like to fish, hike, hunt, look for geodes, mushrooms or blackberries or simply need to relax...RiverView is the place for you. There is endless reading material in the cabins, friendly farm animals to interact with like, Buckshot & Geraldine, the goats, Destiny the English Setter, Laurie Darlin', the Bassett & five cats. There's a small creek to wade in, an old abandoned coal mine to explore & 300 acres of woods & prairie to simply wander around in. Artifacts have been found, the geodes abound & deer & wild turkeys are abundant. This experience cannot be duplicated by theme parks, glitzy hotels or any simulated relaxation technique. This is where you fall asleep to the smell of oaks logs dying in the fire ring, the chirp of crickets & the satisfaction that you spent a day on your self & your comfort. And your family will feel the same way! |
