Rustic Ridge a tiny home close to hiking and skiing!

We are near skiing and hiking making us a true 4 season destination. This little cabin was built as a storage shed back in the 70’s or somewhere there abouts. It was originally constructed partially over an old tobacco barn foundation. The original barn was built sometime in the 1940’s and was struck by lightning in the 70’s and burned to the ground. 85% of the materials used in the remodeling of what we now call Rustic Ridge was reclaimed materials. Most of the planks and finish lumber Which includes wormy chestnut, ash and cherry wood was salvaged from an old farmhouse that was dismantled on our nearby property. With all new plumbing and electrical you get all the safety and comfort of your own home. The house does not have AC and it is hardly ever needed. Even in the heat of summer the house stays cool being located under a canopy of tall birch, poplar and cherry trees. Heat is provided by electric baseboard and wall heat as well as an electric fireplace. There is plenty of parking directly in front of the cottage and parking is monitored by a security camera for your safety.

Perfect Little Cottage for Two!

This rustic cottage has a wonderful reclaimed-wood interior and nice designer touches. It’s pretty and very clean. Though the road leading up to it runs past a saw mill and a blighted property, the cottage itself is nicely situated on a remote property further up. There’s no stove, but the grill and microwave were all we needed. We really enjoyed the fire pit. We loved the cottage and would stay there again!

Cabin in the Woods

A great place that was far enough off of the road to enjoy peace, quiet and the nearby stream but close enough for a quick trip to the store.

We loved the out of the way cabin!

My boyfriend and I booked this cabin for a weekend away and thats what we got. We dont like to be around alot of people and this was a perfect mountain cabin with sounds of the creek running in the back yard. The home was very clean with everything we needed. It was also close to stores for anything we needed. We will for sure be going back very soon!

Absolutely, gorgeous, peaceful and serene.

If you want a nice, quiet place to stay. This is it. The only sound you hear the whole stay. Is the water running of the creek that runs right next to the property in the back yard and the occasional coming and going of the gentleman who lives right next door. It is nothing less than picturesque. Very comfortable, quiet and perfectly, cozy for two. You canning ask for and could barely, get any better this little get away. Tucked up the side of a mountain. Truly, looking forward to visiting again.
