Camp Riverview & Accommodations
One of the most special parts of a Rustic Mama Private Retreat is the setting itself.
Welcome to Camp Riverview, located in beautiful Boulter, Ontario, along the peaceful shores of the Little Mississippi River. Surrounded by hundreds of acres of forest, open meadows, and fresh country air — and bordered by thousands more acres of untouched crown land — it’s the perfect place to slow down, reconnect, and spend meaningful time with the people who matter most.
When you book a private retreat, your group receives exclusive access to the entire camp for the weekend. That means no other guests — just your crew enjoying the cabins, gathering spaces, riverside views, and outdoor areas designed for connection, laughter, and late-night conversations.
Whether you’re sharing meals in the dining hall, enjoying a workshop together, walking the forest trails, or relaxing by the river, Camp Riverview offers the perfect balance of nature, creativity, and community.
