We chose this place to rest, after a week in Florida, and before a 10 lap adventure at Talladega. We could not have chosen a better place. Bring your appetite, as Richard is a wonderful cook, and loves to feed you a LOT. Even his recommendations on local places for dinner were right on. Our GPS was a little off,... More

Second visit that my wife and I have had the privilege of making with Richard and Ellen at River Rest. They are a great couple, they love the Lord and they do a fantastic job making you feel welcome and pampered. The place was decorated with Christmas decorations inside and out. Plan on having a great time!

I had business in Birmingham, Alabama. Yes, I could have stayed in Birmingham but I wanted a place that was peaceful, full of atmosphere, in order to make my business trip a little bit of a vacation while working. This place exceeded my expectations. Yes, it was a little out of the way but well worth it. The view of... More

Richard and Ellen made us feel right at home. The breakfasts were absolutely delicious, the Stuffed French Toast Casserole is fantastic. The Garden Room offers a very quite space in which to relax. The mattress was so comfortable we are going to have to upgrade ours at home now. Off the beaten path yet not too far from shopping and... More

Feeling a little worn out, we were also looking for a place to "hide" for the weekend. We couldn't have picked a better place! Richard and Ellen are such thoughtful, warm, and... More

Richard and Ellen's house is beautiful and comfortable. I was a little leery about the idea of a bed and breakfast at first since I was concerned about the invasiveness of staying in somebody's house, but I was quickly put at ease. Richard and Ellen were helpful, friendly, immediately putting us at ease. Breakfast was very, very good and Richard... More

My husband and I had a wonderful weekend at River Rest. The rooms were beautiful and the beds were so comfy. The view of Lake Logan Martin from the living room was incredible. Richard makes delicious breakfasts. We had so much fun joining Richard and Ellen and the other guests during our evenings. Listening to everyone's stories and getting to... More
