Secluded cabin on private property

Nestled in a natural wooded wonderland, Ridgetop Cabin features all the creature comforts and conveniences of home. Ridgetop Cabin sits on a rocky ridge above Washington State Park. The ground the cabin sits on is filled with druzy quartz crystal, and perhaps you’ll find one on a stroll or hike. The forested acres are host to a large array of insects, plants, trees, and animals. There are curious butterflies and interesting birds, and somewhere there are morel mushrooms. Whether you are making Ridgetop Cabin your “Show Me Staycation,” or you are just passing through and want a comfortable place to hang your hat, we hope you will stay at Ridgetop Cabin.

A beautiful and comfy property with plenty of space inside and out. Well marked paths through the property made it easy to traipse through the woods. And a surprise cup of hot cocoa after a chilly day doing just that was just icing on the cake (no cake though…).

Very clean inside. The host was responsive to questions in messaging on the app. Crystal laden rocks abound just laying on the forest floor on the property. We had a good time with the family there while we were in town for our niece's wedding at the nearby Hillsboro winery. Very quite and peaceful with friendly deer hanging around.

Special Cabin on beautiful property

This cabin is the best of both worlds-all the comforts of home in a beautifully decorated log cabin setting. Many special touches throughout and the owners were very hospitable and great communicators. Would definitely stay again when in the area.

Beautiful quiet location. Cabin was well appointed and stocked. The steep drive was well plowed and salted after the snow fall. Want to come back when it’s warmer and leaves are on the trees.

Went for a weekend to get away from the city. The cabin is located on a beautiful piece of property. Even though you are deep in the woods, we felt completely safe. The cabin is very spacious and offers the same amenities you would find in a hotel. White linens, modern kitchen, everything you need to cook your own meals and extremely comfortable beds. We purchased everything we needed to make our dinner at the DeSoto farmers market and we brought our projector from home and watched movies on the ceiling. It was the perfect getaway. We hope to make it back again for a longer visit. The owners were incredibly polite and quick with responses.

Wonderful Fall Getaway

My husband and I celebrated his 60th birthday (with our two dogs) at this wonderful property. It felt very remote, yet was easy to get there. Kitchen was well equipped, bed was very comfortable and really enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and indoor fireplace, since it was chilly. Took a 30-minute drive one day to tour the Bonne Terre Mine, which was really fascinating. Would definitely stay again!

Seclusion is king.

If you like seclusion this fits the bill. Nice clean, quite cabin, comfortable beds. We found some really nice quartz crystals on the blue arrow and yellow ribbon trails, and yes we saw the guard turtle a couple of times while walking the trails. Even though we were out in the country, we were still only 15 minutes from De Soto, and Washington state park. We would recommend staying there and would stay there again ourselves.

This cabin was absolutely perfect! It was easy to find yet very secluded. It was fully stocked; we had everything we needed and more! It was also very clean without a speck of dirt anywhere.

Great quiet time in nature for the family

Super cute and cozy cabin in the middle of the woods. Super quiet and private. We enjoyed unplugging and getting outside. We even loved the nature books and local town history books they had. It was close for us to go to Washington State park for a hike and close to De Soto so we could take a drive down the old main streets. This place was Very clean and Well kept. We loved it!

Beautiful Cabin in the Woods

This cabin was amazing! Beautiful and comfortable inside and out. My family and I enjoyed our walks through the woods and collecting druzy quartz on this peaceful, private property. The cabin is cozy and comfortable. We all enjoyed hangin out playing Jenga (supplied by host) and spending time as a family. Long story short, it was one of our best stays!!
