The beds were comfortable. The owners were an amazing family. Being the 1st time at this type of lodging was a little disappointing. The description said breakfast included served 8 to 10. This ended up being a bagged breakfast with a sandwich to be microwaved in your room. We were told garbage could be brought down to the front desk. The restaurant had limited hours. Pretty hefty fees were charged for limited services. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angie Oct 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Golconda Mansion House Golconda Mansion House was amazing!

Mansions like these, if still standing, are rarely available to the public. If you love old homes, and appreciate those who are working hard to keep them standing, you should visit and enjoy a nice stay. The mansion has interesting rooms to explore and a great place to stay while becoming familiar with this beautiful region. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller May 29, 2018 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very nice people but a more disappointing experience I cannot imagine. We paid $347.60, including a not previously shown $49 "property fee" for 3 nights, to include a free breakfast. The more notable low points: while using my laptop in bed the first night a cockroach crawled across the screen. There was a live bug in the bath tub. Dead bugs on the floor under the bed. Owner's comment was "this is southern Illinois". First day breakfast was a nondescript potato and ham casserole, cartons of yogurt, tiny oranges and lukewarm coffee with only powdered creamer and sweeteners-no juice or toast or anything else. Second day was dry biscuits and sausage gravy, same coffee and yogurt. No butter, no jam, no juice. Third day I drove 30 miles to find a McDonalds. Had pizza one evening. Surprisingly it was really good. Theres's no parking except on the street in front of the place, room for maybe 5 vehicles. Unhappily the proprietors parked their pickup truck and golf cart directly in front of the place, taking up most of the spaces. Seems like a really bad choice to me. Companions with whom we traveled also had bugs in their rooms. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in May 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jana Oct 24, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was by far the most extreme case of false advertising I’ve ever experienced. The property is a cluttered mess both inside and out. Not advertised was that four children live at this property and can be heard and seen throughout your stay. We were advised when we checked in that the kids should be quieting down around the same time as we are going to bed. The walls are so thin that in our bedroom we could hear the children talking and guests checking in and the hosts talking and people in the hallway outside the bedrooms and people coming in and out of the front door. There is no hope for a “romantic getaway“. Our room had only a tub (no shower) which was still wet when we got there and had a clump of hair in it. It appears that nothing has been updated in this house for at least 40 years. Old, grimy bathrooms. The interior of the house appeared dirty, the rugs appeared filthy and old, and they may not have been filthy but it was impossible to tell because everything is so worn. My husband and I left shortly after checking in and did not end up staying there. We did not receive a refund of our $262 that we paid to stay in a quaint historic mansion that somehow had great reviews ???? ##### Jana Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donna Oct 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very unique and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Beautiful room. Difficultly sleeping due to lots of neighborhood dogs barking throughout the night, but we did have our windows open. ##### Donna Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jane Oct 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fall weekend trip We really enjoyed our stay at this quaint, warm and welcoming place. The room was large and filled with antiques. We could see the river from our room. The service was excellent! We had a nice dinner one evening and a wonderful breakfast on Sunday. The sack breakfast on Saturday was perfect to take with us and start our day enjoying the beautiful fall day and National Forest. If you're coming from the city, keep in mind this is a rural area - not many gas stations or grocery stores, but if you love nature, this area can't be beat. The mansion has a great selection of wine so grab a bottle and have a picnic. The hosts will be happy to help you plan your day!

Hospitality was great thru-out our time there. Rooms were clean and bed was very comfortable. I would recommend staying at the RiverView Mansion. ##### Brian Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael, Indianapolis Oct 15, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great experience. This place is unique and authentic, and provides a great base for those looking to explore Southern Illinois and the Shawnee National Forest. ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Oct 6, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort This property was definitely unique, if you're into unique. The carpets were dirty, air conditioner was turned off to conserve energy and only turned on when we arrived. The continental breakfast was white bread sitting on a plate getting dried out from 8-10 am. Extremely overpriced for the amenities. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Dave, Ashland, Wi Oct 3, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The room was great, clean and comfortable. Breakfast the second day was cinnamon rolls and coffee - not what we expected for breakfast. ##### Dave Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dmitry Aug 15, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Worth Every Penny We spend a night at the Riverview Mansion on 08/12/2018, heading down the road to Shawnee National Forest. The mansion itself, and all the surroundings are truly amazing. It is old enough to feel the postbellum atmosphere and has all the necessary modern appliances. It reminds me of the Dacota Building in NYC, as it was portrayed in Jack Finney's "Time and again". Some fellow travelers were reporting that there are many imperfections in the interior — come on! For such a building, the imperfections are the intangible part of an image, and I don't mind to pay for it. I especially want to express my gratitude to the management. The owners and their entire family are great, hard-working people. Hope to be your guest again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1059-pf709e570-a032-11e8-94ca-0242ac11000e-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1066-pf6717600-a032-11e8-b409-0242ac110007-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1425-pf82edd70-a032-11e8-94ca-0242ac11000e-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1569-pf6b22880-a032-11e8-94ca-0242ac11000e-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Dmitry Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa Jul 23, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Will definitely be back! This place is amazing! Beautifully decorated, charming and even a little funky! I came down from a suburb of Chicago and stayed in the Gilbert room for 3 nights on my own little mommy getaway. The room was huge, had a great view of the river and the bed was incredibly comfortable. I was the only one staying the days I was there and they still went out of their way to put out a nice continental breakfast every day. This was EXACTLY the trip I needed! Days filled with hiking on the breathtaking trails in the Shawnee National Forest and coming back here to quiet and relaxing nights! Unfortunately my stay was Mon-Thurs, so the lounge was not open, but Tony opened the door for me to show me and it is super cool! Since no one else was staying there at this time, he also let me peek into the other rooms, which were all equally amazing. I have family in AL and this is almost an exact halfway point. I'm hoping to set up a full family vacation in the future. At the very least, I will DEFINITELY be back with my boyfriend! ##### Lisa Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Silver Reef Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Silver-Reef-Casino-Resort.h16231932.Hotel-Information) > > [Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Salamanca-Hotels-Seneca-Allegany-Resort-Casino.h2238839.Hotel-Information) > > [Canad Inns Destination Center Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Canad-Inns-Destination-Center-Grand-Forks.h1713856.Hotel-Information) > > [C'mon Inn Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Cmon-Inn-Hotel-Suites.h1510580.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Wolf Lodge Sandusky OH](https://www.expedia.ca/Sandusky-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Sandusky-OH.h1183594.Hotel-Information) > > [I Hotel And Illinois Conference Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Champaign-Hotels-I-Hotel-And-Conference-Center.h1897350.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Semiahmoo Resort Golf & Spa, Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Semiahmoo-Resort-Golf-Spa.h13986.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxurious Otter Pointe](https://www.expedia.ca/Girard-Hotels-Luxurious-Otter-Pointe.h33004397.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Club Vacations Fox River Resort at Sheridan by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Sheridan-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Club-Vacations-Fox-River-Resort-At-Sheridan.h1797291.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Flags Great Escape Lodge & Indoor Waterpark](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-George-Hotels-Six-Flags-Lodge-Indoor-Waterpark.h1385446.Hotel-Information) > > [Darien Lake Lodge on the Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Corfu-Hotels-Darien-Lake-Lodge-On-The-Lake.h13279584.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brook at Turning Stone Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Utica-Hotels-Turning-Stone-Resort-And-Casino.h1684407.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [The Trail in Adams - Berkshires’ Art Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Adams-Hotels-Topia-Inn-An-Organic-Oasis.h12259511.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Margaritaville-Resort-Palm-Springs.h26011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information) > > [Shooting Star Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Shooting-Star-Casino-Hotel.h28874246.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulalip Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Tulalip-Resort-Casino.h2161524.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Angel-Of-The-Winds-Casino-Resort.h9689970.Hotel-Information) > > [Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort and Players Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hogansburg-Hotels-Akwesasne-Mohawk-Casino-Resort.h6009138.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrah’s Laughlin - A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Laughlin-Hotels-Harrahs-Laughlin-Hotel-Casino.h43310.Hotel-Information)
