My boyfriend and I needed to get away from the city for a few days and we had a great time staying here. It rained a little bit, but we enjoyed the hot tub and watched dvds. Very much enjoyed fishing off the dock and using the fire pit. Would love to come back!

We all absolutely loved our stay here! The property was private and clean and had every ammenity you could need! We did wish there was a little more seating as the living room and hot tub only sat 4 and we had a party of 5;however, the stay was completely amazing and we would most certainly return!!! Also, the hosts were extremely helpful and very fast to respond to any questions and concerns I had. Would definitely recommend this property.

Tranquil Setting with Fire Pit and Hot Tub

Our stay at The Rustic Ruby was peaceful. We enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub each evening, overlooking the pond. No loud noises. Deer dining in the yard at dusk. Ten minutes from the train ride in Blue Ridge. Plenty of dining options there, too.

5-stars

My family of 4 enjoyed a short getaway to the Rustic Ruby as part of our Christmas celebration this year. If you're considering booking this property, do it! The house is super clean, it is well-stocked and has pretty much anything you can think of that you might need. The location is good - just a few minutes away from all the attractions and action of Blueridge. It was cold when we were there, but we enjoyed fishing anyway. The house stayed warm and we left with some sweet memories. I can't think of a single drawback to this property.

New Year's Getaway at Rustic Ruby

Rustic Ruby was a comfy, cozy charmer close to shops & restaurants & a great variety of hiking near Blue Ridge. ( We missed out on the Swinging Bridge hike as the gravel road was too rutted even for our 4WD Subaru.) We enjoyed the swings by the firepit (we've learned to bring a fire starter log and some collected dryer lint whenever there's an out door fire area) and the completely private warm relaxation in the hot tub with the spectacular star display as night approached. The lovely fireplaces kept us toasty in the evenings, too. We just cooked breakfast at the cabin. Would recommend you bring everything you need even though there are grocery stores nearby. ( We didn't bring salt & pepper :-( The cabin was spotless with plenty of towels and kitchen dinnerware and cookware. We appreciated the hosts checking in with us to address any questions or concerns! We love the area in the summer & all the related activities: tubing, zip lines, fishing, more hiking...so hope to return with grandkids in tow. This was a truly wonderful get-away any time of the year! Thanks for sharing this wonderful slice of nature with us! Paul & Renee; Atlanta, Ga

Fall break family vacation

We found the property exactly as advertised. Entire family enjoyed the stay and are asking when we can return. We enjoyed the flexibility of being 10-15 minutes drive from choice of restaurants or tourist attractions, or just being able to stay and cook at cabin. Fire pit was a perfect evening habit that has caused us to resume the same habit once we returned home.

Amazing!!!

Our stay at the Rustic Ruby was such an amazing experience! The cabin was very clean, well designed, and thoughtfully decorated. Growing up in the mountains of North Carolina, I have spent a lot of time in Cabins and this truly was one of the most cozy cabins I have ever been in. Plenty of games for the kids and the beds literally were like sleeping on clouds. Location is great and only a 15 min drive to town. Highly highly recommend! Thanks for a great family trip!
