In general, the peoperty felt secure. Easy access ,Plenty of parking and very accessible to the downtown and beaches.Property is well loved but was very clean.
We had such a great stay! The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful from the moment we arrived. The location is unbeatable—right next to the water with beautiful views all around. Our room was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. You can really tell they take pride in keeping the place clean and well-maintained. Definitely one of the best spots we’ve stayed at—highly recommend!
Very friendly staff!
This location is so convenient to all you want to see & do in Colonial Beach.
Clean room & linens.
Room could use a touch up of paint but that’s about it.
I love Colonial Beach, and I always stay at Rivers Edge Inn.
It was Days Inn when I first start visiting Colonial Beach. Staff is Awesome and the rooms are immaculate. It is my kind of vibe for comfort and tranquility.
It is a good place a quality time with family. Its closeness to beach makes it very convinient. However, the breakfast room is too small, and very limited breakfast options.

This is an older motet that offers an affordable, clean option right on the beach. Front desk staff was warm and welcoming, and the room was very clean. Check in was simple, and we loved being able to walk out our door and within steps, be on the beach. There's a park next door, which hosted a BBQ battle one day, and a croquette tournament the next, and we could play frisbee and throw a football there, as well. The boardwalk starts there, and there are convenient dining options close by.
