LOCATION

The White Mountains have inspired travelers for generations. Towering peaks, winding rivers, pristine forests, and timeless villages create one of New England’s most extraordinary destinations. At Riverwood, you’ll find yourself at the very heart of it all.

Step outside your door and nature awaits. Follow the Confluence Trail as it meanders through the property, wrapping around more than 1,000 feet of frontage along the Wildcat and Ellis Rivers. Discover remarkable glacial erratics sculpted thousands of years ago, wander beneath towering pines, watch for native birds and wildlife, or simply settle beside the water and let the sound of the rivers slow the pace of your day. Here, the landscape has been intentionally preserved, inviting you to explore, reflect, and reconnect with the natural world.

Just beyond the trails lies the heart of Jackson Village, one of New England’s most picturesque mountain towns. Stroll across the iconic circa 1876 Honeymoon Covered Bridge, browse locally owned shops and galleries, enjoy cafés and restaurants, or spend an afternoon at the historic Wentworth Golf Club, whose fairways border Riverwood itself. During the winter months, miles of groomed Nordic ski trails begin almost outside your door through the celebrated Jackson Ski Touring Foundation.

Riverwood places you at the center of everything that makes the Mount Washington Valley one of North America’s premier four-season destinations. Within minutes you’ll find alpine skiing and snowboarding at Wildcat, Black Mountain, Attitash, and Cranmore. In warmer months you’ll find world-class hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing, kayaking, waterfalls, and wild swimming throughout the White Mountain National Forest. Enjoy scenic drives through Pinkham and Crawford Notches, championship golf, spectacular fall foliage, and countless opportunities to experience the outdoors. Whether you’re seeking adventure or quiet solitude, you’ll find it here.

Despite feeling wonderfully removed from everyday life, Riverwood is an easy drive from Boston, Portland, Burlington, Montreal, and New York City, making it the perfect destination for a weekend escape, a family vacation, or an extended mountain retreat.

Whether your perfect day begins with coffee beside the river, a sunrise hike above treeline, an afternoon on the golf course, fresh tracks through winter snow, or an evening around the fire beneath a canopy of stars, you’ll find it at Riverwood. Join us and you’ll quickly discover that Riverwood is more than a place to stay, it’s the perfect place from which to experience everything the White Mountains have to offer.

Whether you're here to relax, explore the mountains, or experience everything the Mount Washington Valley has to offer, Riverwood places you close to the region's best attractions, dining, shopping, and outdoor adventures.
