Perfect place to stay, and we had a great view of the lake with spectacular sunsets on the back deck. A/C kept us nice and cool when we were in the house. We highly recommend this pet-friendly accommodation, and look forward to booking it again.

Wonderful place. Enjoyed our stay. Had a beautiful view of the lake. The entrance/mud room is a little musty, but the rest of the house is beautiful and spacious. The game room was a nice extra. The kids put the kayaks to use. Will probably stay again in the future.

Amazing lake getaway

This home was perfect for our family lake trip. The view and access to the water was amazing. The access to the kayaks made the experience all the better. A long with the game room perfect for when it rained or we needed a break from the sun. Lake Okana was beautiful and only a short walk away. The animal life was rampant, nightly visit from deer made for a very peaceful evening.

Perfect girls trip

The back deck is where we spent most of our time. If we weren’t in the water enjoying the kayaks. It was truly a wonderful getaway for 3 moms. We were right on the water. We highly recommend this place to family and friends.

We had a lovely time getting away and staying at this cabin with the doggos. It is so quiet here and relaxing. I spent a lot of time listening to the birds and the water outside. The deck is amazing. The house is way bigger than I thought it was going to be! The daybed in the sun room was a favorite hang out and have coffee spot. The bed in the master room is very comfortable. I didn't want to leave this house! The host is very accommodating and down to earth. We hope to make this an annual excursion each fall. )

The Best Yet

Our stay at the Ruby Cottage was amazing!! The view and the seclusion alone was worth it! We enjoyed every bit of it from all the selections of games, fishing, and kayaking. The owner had thought of everything possible that may be needed or forgotten. Plus it’s all labeled!!! This is by far our favorite stay yet n already planning for next years stay!! Thank you!

We heart label's

This little cottage in the woods was amazing! The view from the back deck out over the lake was beautiful. We forgot that three kids might want things to play with, well look no further... Legos, coloring books, board games, and connect staws kept them busy for hours and the choice in DVD's for them was impressive! Usually we spend half out time looking for things throughout the place where we stay.....not here! These folks labeled everything under the sun and made like so much easier. We will most definitely be back!

I can't say enough about this property!! The owner provided so many extras that I did not anticipate! My husband had trouble breathing so I was concerned about the a/c- not necessary the place was very comfortable. The games, puzzles, outside activities....it's all there. Lake is in the front yard, during this visit my niece decided the lake was better than the ocean which is our usual annual trip. Lake view from the entire right side of the house. Curtains that close it all off if chosen. Lots of wildlife, chill neighborhood, and close to town. Spent most of the time in the water and on the back deck.
