The River Inn of Harbor Town has the look and feel of an elegant European Inn, with antique fixtures, reclaimed wood floors, four-poster beds, flower boxes, and windows that actually open.

If you can't make it to the bar, you can enjoy the sight from your own room; all but six have full river views.

Garden gnomes and the welcoming scent of freshly baked muffins greet you at the front porch of this Queen Anne Victorian 1887 house, which has antiques, original stained glass, and a pictorial history of the innkeeper's family. Most rooms have a traditional feel, but the Retro Suite is decorated with quirky midcentury furnishings and has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, and a private entrance. You can fly-fish for brown trout at the edge of the 1-acre yard, where the Bushkill Stream flows by old stone retaining walls, or wander through a stone labyrinth. A full vegetarian breakfast is served, and there is a refrigerator in the common area.

The rooms and cabins are comfortable but not fancy here, and the inn's riverfront location and amenities—including picnic tables, hammocks, a playground, and lawn games—make it a popular place to stay, especially for families. Rooms have log furnishings, including futons in some; flat-screen TVs with DVD players and streaming service; Wi-Fi; and a microwave and mini-refrigerator. Cabins have small kitchens and barbecues. Local coffee in the rooms is a nice extra.

Housed in a five-story converted warehouse, this 1817 lodging has a harbor-from-yesteryear theme, with nautical murals and model schooners.

If you want the privacy of a cottage, a bit of elbow room, and many of the amenities of a full-service hotel, book a room at this resort on the bank of the Chena River. The individual cottages, some of them fronting the river and surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds, have patios or garden spaces. On summer evenings you can sit outside and watch canoes, rafts, and powerboats pass by. Chena's Alaskan Grill serves dinner and has a deck overlooking the river.

In the early 1900s, Jacksonville's wealthiest residents built mansions along Riverside Avenue (dubbed the Row), and the three-story Riverdale Inn—well-preserved, with heart-pine floors, crown moldings, and guest rooms decorated to period—is one of only two such homes remaining. Despite being more than 100 years old, the mansion feels pristine, inside and out. Some rooms have fireplaces; all have bathrooms with tub–shower combos or showers only; one room has a whirlpool tub. Complimentary breakfast is made to order each morning, and the inn is within walking distance of numerous restaurants, as well as the Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens and the Five Points district. You can also pop downstairs for a drink at the Gum Bunch Pub.

This lodge-inspired hotel and convention center overlooks the Deschutes River and appeals to family travelers with its indoor and outdoor pools, hot tubs, and on-site dining. A granite-and-beige color scheme dominates the spacious but impersonal rooms, many of which offer river views.

Expect lots of white and light, neutral tones at this hotel with some of the most pleasant staff in town. Because of the inn's location along Billings's medical corridor and its squeaky-clean image, many people who come to town for a hospital visit stay here.

With rooms and suites named after 19th-century literary legends, from Alfred, Lord Tennyson to Agatha Christie, this inn certainly has a storybook setting. The Victorian home, built in 1882, is in a residential neighborhood three blocks from downtown Stillwater. Passionate about antiques and gourmet cuisine, its owners filled the rooms in period style, from hand-painted wallpaper to crystal chandeliers, and a daily complimentary breakfast highlighting organic and artisanal foods is taken in the dining room next to a carved Gothic wall. Each room features a private bath, some with lavish spa-like features. Cooking classes are offered monthly.

The front door to the Riverview could be a time machine transporting you straight to the Old West, circa 1916, the year the hotel was built—the lobby resembles a museum, with old cameras in a glass case and high-backed typewriters on display, and a Tiffany lamp—the real thing—illuminates the reception desk. Some rooms have river views, and all have ornate iron beds and/or antique furniture from the original owner's family. The popular Seagle's Café & Saloon serves steaks and seafood, including delicious rock shrimp. Picnic lunches can be packed for your Cumberland Island excursion.

A landmark since 1885, this former bridge tender's home is set back from the Intracoastal Waterway at the edge of the north causeway, which still has an operating drawbridge. Rooms open out to plant-filled verandas and balconies, and views look either through trees to the waterway or onto the private courtyard and pretty pool. Each room is furnished differently with charming antique touches, such as an old washbasin, a quilt, or a rocking chair. An "expanded" continental breakfast is served in your room. The inn has a charming waterfront restaurant, full-service spa, and an excellent gift shop; it's also near art galleries and stores.

Fans of Twin Peaks will recognize the exterior of this rambling two-story tavern and inn (although interior scenes were shot elsewhere), but you needn't have watched the show to appreciate the clean, comfy, and affordable guest rooms. Located beside the Snoqualmie River in the hamlet of Fall City, the inn dates to 1916, and its guest rooms have been tastefully updated.

In the early 1700s this building on the banks of the Tred Avon River was crafted as a home by ships' carpenters using ship nails, hand-hewn beams, and pegged paneling. In 1738 it was bought by an English trading company as a house for its Oxford representative, Robert Morris. Four guest rooms have handmade wall paneling and fireplaces built of English bricks used as boat ballast. Other buildings in the complex include a newer manor house on a private beach. Breakfast is included. Several years ago the inn closed its famous restaurant (with its reputed "best crabcakes on the bay"), but in 2010 it reopened, redecorated, and rehabilitated, under celebrity chef Mark Seller, who promotes locally sourced food. The kitchen has regained its former glory.

Located in the heart of Wicker Park, this boutique luxury revival hotel has curated art deco features, a mazelike layout, and two very distinct categories of rooms: Tower Rooms, which are snug but strong on mid-century style, and industrial, family-friendly Annex Lofts. Public areas serve as a second living room for local young professionals gathering material for their next Instagram reel; don’t miss the Up Room, a 13th-floor lounge serving cocktails and an eyeful of skyline. Come summer, soak in the scene, and cool off in the tiny pool at the rooftop Cabana Club. Following a 2024 makeover that channels dolce vita vibes (think freely flowing Aperol spritzes and Mediterranean bites), the club is open to the public via day pass, but Robey guests get complimentary admission and dibs on early morning dips.

A tetherball on the turf, a riverside fire pit, and welcoming front porches: these are just a few of the touches that make this old homestead a uniquely pleasant place to stay. There are 14 simple but modernized cabins with fully equipped kitchens on the Gunnison River. You can fish right outside your door or drive to Blue Mesa Reservoir, 18 miles away.

The cabins are dog friendly, and the proprietors are knowledgeable about fishing, trails, and local history, including the property's own barn, constructed in the late 1800s.
