Review > - "This has been our meeting place for many years. GLENN, our host, has been the reason we keep coming back. He takes care of all our needs and I can count on a well maintained property."

I have been renting my home for 25 years. Love to have you visit!
If you want to be at homes right by Niagara Falls, think again. If you read reviews of home in Niagara Falls you will see phrases like "scary, unsafe".
I have created more of a "Resort Experience" with many amenities that
no one else offers.

My fiancé and I stayed at the Niagara River Inn last winter. The house on the river is beautiful and Glenn couldn't have done a better job in making sure we had everything we needed. Kitchens, bathrooms came fully stocked and there was plenty of entertainment provided. Glenn also provided us with a map of all the local hot spots including all of the best restaurants, grocery stores and tourist sites.
Thank you Glenn! Matthew Tennett Hartboro, PA

We spent one of the most enjoyable weekends we have had when we recently stayed at the Niagara River Inn to have a close view of the Grand Island Poker Run.
We would never have dined in local restaurants on Grand Island had we not been staying there and were looking forward to spending a weekend there each summer.

Hi Glenn: Staying at your home made ALL the difference in our vacation to the Buffalo area for my niece's wedding. The home is ideally situated, spacious, well-stocked, and reasonably priced. We would definitely return on future trips to the area to visit my family. Sincerely ~ Marsha Grim Fullerton, CA

This home was awesome and because of its rental we were able to come there to see Niagara Falls and was looking forward to future visits. Terry Violette 26 View St Manchester CT

We had a great time. The view of the River at this house just can't be beat. Photos do not do it justice. Also, We were very glad that the owner was around to help us with a medical emergency and was able to take my mother to the hospital. It turned out ok, but could have ruined our vacation. So, thank you Glenn for your help right when we needed it. Tracy and Mel - Ohio

Moody & Smith family - This is a 5 star home ! The location was perfect. It is right in between Niagara Falls and Buffalo. It was very convenient for sightseeing. There were 9 of us aged 9 to 59. There was plenty to keep everyone occupied. The youngest loved fishing on the dock and swimming in the pool. The teenagers loved the pool and theater room. They all enjoyed smores at the firepit. The older ones enjoyed the deck overlooking the water watching the ducks, geese and the daily heron visit.
*****
The house was as described and more. We have been staying at vacation rental homes for over 15 years and this is by far the best stocked home we have stayed at. It has literally everything you will ever need.
*****
We ate out but the kitchen was well stocked with everything needed including a bottle of wine, spices, coffee, filters and a complete array of pots and pans.
Glenn was a pleasure to work with. He is onsite and available to offer advise and take care of the pool and hot tub. THANKS GLENN FOR SOME WONDERFUL MEMORIES!!
*****
We had a wonderful time & want to come back. Great vacation property and you have kept it up very well. We loved the Pool, Hot Tub, Foosball and Pool Table. Maps and all the extras are a very nice touch. And, thank you for the use of your computer ! Kim, Hakim and Family - Massachusetts

Could not have found a better place to stay!
The Niagara River Inn made our trip memorable. Excellent place to stay with family and friends. Owner of the home, Glenn, is very kind and very helpful person. His kindness and care shows in every inch of the house. He provided us with great touring tips and also to loan us a computer. My husband forgot his laptop and we could not thank Glenn enough since he loaned us his laptop. We enjoyed the hot tub, grilling and sitting by the river. Very peaceful, well maintained property right on the Niagara river.
My kids 4 year old and 2.5 year old keep asking me when are we going back.
My sister was visiting me from India for 3 weeks and this trip was the best memory that she could carry with her back home...thanks to Niagara River Inn.
*****
Whoa, nice view Our stay in November was great. The view of the River is great and the location could not be better. The house offers more than any others and we enjoyed the firepit by the water and TV that is huge, a very nice feature. I recommend it

Nice property and amenities
Great place. Room for the whole family which was my wife and I, our grown children, and grandchildren. Dock for fishing, nice pool. Large common room for eating and games. Pool table and foosball. All bedrooms were nice. Fire pit as well for s'moresGlenn was great with communication and was available for anything needed. Towels, linens, and cooking stuff were all provided. We had a bad weather day but there was enough space that being stuck inside most of it wasn't bad. Nice quiet location on Grand Island but anything you could want is within a short drive.
