Eminence is a small town and it's primary tourism appears to be float trips on the river. Choosing accommodation in a rural area can be a challenge but we were so happy we chose River's Edge. The Resort (Inn, Cabins and River Houses) is situated right on the banks of the Jacks Fork River. The water was high during our... More

This was our second stay in the Captain's Cabin. The female owner is a very nice woman-not sure about the other comments. We were there to explore the areas around Emminence (Blue Springs, Alley Spring, Rocky Creek etc..so didn't spend much time at the resort. Our last night there was raining so we lit a fire and enjoyed it. This... More

We had no reservation when we arrived in Eminence on one of the busiest weekends of the year. There was a cancellation so we stayed in a king bed room on the end. The owner wasn't rude, like other's have said. She was fine, and gave us a map that we used a lot. The room was expensive, but we... More

i have been staying at River's Edge Resort for over 30 years. The Jacks Fork River used to pass by the edge of the property, but then the Great Flood of '93 changed the course of the river to the opposite bank. In the beginning as a bed n breakfast, Lynette left a scrumptious breakfast outside ur door. Through the... More

The area is beautiful, accomodations are very nice BUT make sure to check everything before you move in. I was charged $40 (off deposit) for the screen door going out to the porch on the River Cabin. Said we walked through it. Pretty sure someone would have told me if that had happened. I don't recall the screen door being... More

Thanks for your review and we do tell our guests that are charged a deposit that they need to check everything out (as we already have) when they check in so we will know if they have found anything that is wrong or broken. In this case a young boy with this group was caught (by me personally) stomping down... More

Our family stayed in Room 5 and our friends were in Room 9. The rooms were pretty comfortable and suited our needs just fine. The bathroom is a bit on the small side, but who's spending all their time in the bathroom? The view from the deck was fabulous, even though the river is down due to drought conditions. I... More

A group of friends started looking into different place to have our annual float trip. We had heard that Eminence, MO was a nice area. Even though I was not the exact point person on this planning trip I was well up to date with our traveling plans. We were traveling with a group of 9-12 people so we chose... More

We are never rude to any of our guests. At check in when we feel it is appropriate we go over are rules with our new guests to insure that they know what is expected of them and they will respect our resort as well as our other guests. Large groups on summer weekends often party hard and loose this... More

I stayed in room 11 with two friends. This was our third time at River's Edge. It is a unique property right on the Jack's Fork river and near the small town of Eminence. There were some problems with the room: it was very dark; the double bed I slept in was not very comfortable; there were a few minor... More

This was the third time I have stayed at River's Edge. My 2 friends and I have enjoyed these accommodations in the past, and you can't beat the location. The decor is unique, but some updates are needed. There was a "soft spot" on the bathroom floor, maybe due to water damage. A couple of the lamps were a bit... More

Eminence is a beautiful community-however- River's Edge was not quite what I'd call a pleasant place to stay. First of all- there's a new bridge and the water is low so, you're actually about 100 yards from the river's edge. That is no fault of the owner so,let's let that go. One is initially welcomed to the establishment by a... More
