A Guys Mills couple plan to build and operate a brewery and restaurant where Riverside: The Inn at Cambridge Springs stood.

Jason and Deanna Howles, through their new company, Riverside Brewing Company LLC, bought the 25-acre property for $93,000.

The couple also own and will continue to operate Blooming Valley Landscape & Supply.

Their new business is rooted in a longtime hobby.

“We have been brewing craft beer for 10 years now and have realized that this passion isn’t going away,” Deanna Howles said in a news release. “We aren’t getting any younger and we have both dreamed of owning a restaurant and brewery for some time.”

The Riverside Inn stood on the property along French Creek from its opening in 1885 until May 2, when it burned to the ground. The fire began in the inn kitchen and quickly spread throughout the rambling frame structure. The cause of the fire was not determined.

The property is the perfect location for a new destination business, Deanna Howles said.

The “Riverside couldn’t be a more perfect place to do it,” she said. “We would be honored with community support as we do our best to preserve history, give people jobs back and bring life back to the Cambridge area.”

Plans for the brewery and restaurant are still in the making, Jason Howles said.

The couple expect construction to begin in spring and to be completed by spring 2019.

The Riverside Inn most recently was owned by Mike and Marie Halliday, who bought the onetime hotel and spa for the second time in 2014. They also owned and operated the inn from 1985 until 2010.

The hotel in its heyday catered to people who went to Cambridge Springs “to take the waters,” or bathe in nearby mineral springs in hopes of improved health.
