We enjoyed our stay at Rustic Ridge Cabins. The location and cabin was better than what we thought we would be coming to! If we ever come back that way we would stay there again. The owner was very friendly and was able to answer any questions we had on things we could do in the area. We highly recommend this place!

Great place to stay

There wasn’t much open during our winter visit to the area, so we were glad to find these cute cabins that allow pets and are centrally located. We cooked our own meals and stayed warm and cozy despite the frigid conditions outside.
