Shuttle to the Mountain
After arriving at the resort, park your car and leave it for entire duration of your stay. Everything you need and want to do is at RiverWalk Resort, within walking distance, or a short shuttle bus ride away. Shuttle from the grand entrance of the resort to Loon Mountain's lodge for a day of skiing. Then just give us a call at the end of the day, and we’ll pick you up and whisk you back to the resort so you can relax by the fireplace or in the hot tub.
Eat and Drink at the Resort
With your own state-of-the-art kitchen in your suite, you can cook all your meals in the comfort of your pajamas if you so choose. But if you'd rather have someone else do the cooking for you, we have options! For delicious Italian cuisine, head down to La Vista Italian Restaurant. Open for dinner, the menu at La Vista is extensive with something for everyone. From starters like Seafood Chowder and Pear & Blue Cheese Crostinis to mains like pizza, pasta, lots of meat and seafood, you certainly won’t go hungry.
You can also stop by Rhythm Tap & Grille located conveniently by the main lobby, perfect for grabbing a bite or a drink without having to stray far from your suite.

Its ambiance is characterized by a modern brick and mortar mill feel, which adds a rustic yet contemporary charm to your dining experience. The menu boasts a variety of locally sourced menu items that highlight the freshest produce and ingredients from the region, ensuring a taste that is both authentic and delightful. Crafted beverages complement the food offerings, providing a delightful selection of drinks that pair perfectly with the meals. These food and beverage pairings are exclusive to the White Mountains, offering an experience that is as unique as it is delicious, making Rhythm Tap & Grille a must-visit spot during your stay at the resort.

Eat and Drink Within Walking Distance
Lincoln is a small, walkable ski town and if you’re craving something in town, chances are it’s within a short walk from RiverWalk.
