Welcome to River Ridge Retreat, an Offline Retreat designed to help you slow down and reconnect with what matters. Less than 20 minutes from Sandpoint, this private riverside escape offers campfires, river adventures, beautiful sunsets, and a thoughtfully furnished bell tent. No Wi-Fi. No distractions. Just modern comforts and meaningful time together.

The space

📱 Reliable cell service for most guests (no Wi-Fi)

Before you book: This is an outdoor glamping experience. There is no shower or refrigerator, and the retreat includes uneven terrain and natural surroundings. If you're looking to trade screens for sunsets and embrace a slower pace, you'll feel right at home.

River activities are seasonal and dependent on water levels. Floating and paddleboarding are typically best earlier in the summer and may not be possible during periods of low water.
