We are inviting people to come enjoy this experience with us as we excavate the ship, to learn history, and to learn unique outdoor activities. There are so many treasures still left to be found.

Welcome to Little River Sunset Retreat!
Escape to a peaceful riverside getaway where beautiful views, outdoor adventure, and modern camping comforts come together. Located about 3 miles off I-95 along Little River, our private family property is the perfect place to slow down, reconnect with nature, and make lasting memories.
Guests are welcome to explore and enjoy the property, including the yard, river views, and many outdoor amenities. Spend time at The Lookout, our riverside gazebo with Adirondack chairs and string lights, challenge your family to a game of basketball or pickleball, let the kids enjoy the playground with tunnel slides and a treehouse, gather around the fire pit with complimentary firewood, or soak in the seasonal hot tub.
Because this is our home as well as your getaway, you may see us around the property during your stay. We are an active family with two dogs, chickens, and a friendly outdoor cat. Our dogs may occasionally bark when guests arrive or move about the property, but they are always secured. You're welcome to visit the chicken area and enjoy seeing the flock, but we ask that the coop remain closed and the chickens be left undisturbed.
Please enjoy the property within the split rail fence boundaries and avoid entering our neighbors' private property.
We'll gladly respect your privacy, but if you'd like local recommendations, have questions, or simply want to chat, we're always happy to help.
Whether you're looking for a quiet river escape, a fun family getaway, or a place to unplug and reconnect with nature, we hope you'll enjoy the peaceful atmosphere, beautiful sunsets, and all the little moments that make Little River Sunset Retreat a special place to visit.

Nice spot that was close to town and peaceful. Easy in and out as fast as the spots. A little tight coming in though. If you have a long unit, swing wide as possible. Otherwise, a place I'd use again.

The site was breath taking, the amenities provided were everything and more! Everything was carefully thought out! It truly is a place to relax, unwind and enjoy homesteading life! My hubby and I celebrated our 25th anniversary there, and I would not have traded it for a different trip! It was what I needed in a time of mourning the loss of my father in February! Life is always noisy but this place has a way of quieting everything around you and really allowing us to it all in!
