Riverdance Lodge: Best Family and Friends private Icicle River Fun Getaway!!
Experience the best of Leavenworth at Riverdance Lodge!
Riverdance Lodge is at the end of our private road Joyful Place.
Security and respect for wildlife, property and neighbors is important anywhere. I live near both my lodges to insure safety, comfort and a 5 star stay.
We are located in a private fire arm restricted area and ask that all firearms are locked in vehicles. We are located on a wildlife reserve at the confluence of the Icicle and Wenatchee rivers with endless shores to explore. We are the best location for lots of privacy and river fun! Bring all your river toys! Great paddle boarding, tubing, hiking fishing the back door. Riverdance Lodge is spacious, very private, and has a large back yard leading 300 feet to the rivers edge. Recreational opportunities [hiking, paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing to name a few, are right out the back door. Perfect for families, reunions, and small groups.
You will feel pampered the moment you arrive at Riverdance. This luxurious custom designed “personal lodge” was built for families or small group vacation/getaway retreats.
Riverdance is beautifully decorated in the Northwest Tradition. Lots of custom construction include the hand-picked rock fireplace, locally designed metal work, artwork and custom wood furnishing. Enjoy the fully supplied foodie kitchen, family rooms, spacious deck, cedar sauna and hot tub.
Don't miss the chance to make s'mores in the fire pit at the rivers edge.
Surrounded by spectacular mountain views, Riverdance Lodge will delight the most discriminating vacationer.
Riverdance is two levels with 2 kitchens, (1 upstairs and 1 downstairs), 4-bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, 1 family room, and 1 living room which accommodates 8 [+*] guests comfortably.

About the host
Hosted by Greg
Michigan native. Enjoy the outdoors! Love Nina my life partner and my new house in the Meadow..
In 1980, My wife and I set out from Michigan to Washington on a 3000 mile 3 year cross country hike [hiked every foot] in search of the perfect location for us to call home.
We found it here in Leavenworth.
I also found that inn keeping is my passion. In 1983, I started my first lodging business. In 2005, River Meadows LLC was born and Riverdance Lodge opened which later expanded to include Meadow Dance Lodge next door to Riverdance,
One of the things that I enjoy is that I have my own salmon hole at Riverdance Lodge to share with my guests. I feel very fortunate to have found my home in a magical location....come share the dance with me.

Why they chose this property
In response to a for sale ad in the newspaper, my first visit to the property was in the spring of 1988.
When I found the property, there was only a primitive dirt road. It was early morning as I walked through the rough trail with my six-month old son Josh on by back and my golden lab "Honey". I remember asking myself if we were at the right place. We wound down through the thick stand of Cottonwood trees and various wild bushes when suddenly the trail opened to an incredibly expansive and breathtaking meadow. I realized that I was standing at the confluence of the Wenatchee and Icicle Rivers.
I stood in awe in that early morning light gazing at the surrounding snow capped mountains where the two rivers met. I knew that I had found a special place. I'll always remember that day, Josh giggling with laughter as we skipped stones on the river and Honey fetching sticks...I didn't waste any time purchasing what is now Riverdance Lodge.
Now, more than 30 years later and all the dancing my family have experienced on this river, we offer to share this dance with you.

What makes this property unique
It's Not a House, It's an Experience!
You’re comfort and privacy is my first priority. Your fun starts when making reservations. As the owner, I can assist you in planning your retreat/vacation. You won’t have the usual concerns of where to go for fun or who has the best safety record. You can relax and let the scenery go by or for those looking for a little more adventure there are lots of activities right out the front door.
Photo opportunities are everywhere, eagle, deer and bear are common sightings. Hang out at the rivers edge for the next critter experience or kick back on the deck and let the next photo come to you.
