Company information

Welcome to River Ridge Lodge! We're Frauke and Mike, the proud owners and innkeepers. We believe that everyone, no matter who they are or where they come from, should feel welcome here. Our goal is to create a friendly, relaxed atmosphere where our guests feel special and at home. We love meeting new people and sharing the beauty of Mahone Bay and the South Shore Nova Scotia. As ambassadors for this wonderful area, we want to ensure that our guests have the best possible experience during their stay. After 25+ years in Vancouver, BC, we were ready for a change of pace and a closer connection to nature. We moved here to embrace a slower, more fulfilling lifestyle, surrounded by the great outdoors. So come and experience the charm of River Ridge Lodge. We can't wait to meet you and show you all that Mahone Bay has to offer.
