Testimonials
Love going there every year. Gloria K.
Staff made our use of the pavilion easy-especially the man who supplied the key on a Saturday. Thanks so much! T. Glasgow
Everything was just great. Thank you. Jim B.
My grandparents had 18 children. With children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren it was too much to have a reunion at one person's home. So Shoaff Park Riverlodge Pavilion has become our "home away from home" since at least 1964. We continue the traditions of our Thanksgiving get-togethers to this day. Thank you so much for maintaining the Riverlodge! It always looks great. The Fusselman Families
Thank you we all had a good time. Barbara N.
Excellent service. And we will use you again. And the Pavilion was nice. Mike and Betty C.
I plan on doing this again next year. I was very pleased. Richard M.
We were amazed at the cleanliness. Such a great place. Thank you. B. M. Robrock
