We loved the cabin. Felt like home away from home. The kiddos loved exploring the property and the smores! Emily was a fantastic host and went above and beyond for us! Amazing communication. God willing, we will visit again. Recommend 10/10!
This location had almost everything you need for basic meal prep/cooking. The outside yard and little creek behind the house was lovely.

Response from VrboOwner on 19 Oct, 2025
We are grateful for the kind words! To explain the 3 stars to future visitors, the guests experienced a valid issue, but unfortunately it was not communicated until after departure. Had we known, we would have been able to resolve the situation right away. We strongly encourage guests to notify us immediately if any issues arise. We are active hosts and are here to help guests have the best vacation possible!
Incredible cabin with plenty of space inside and out. Wonderful amenities and prime location. The host is so helpful and responds promptly as well, which is so nice. We will forever stay at Rocky Bottom Resort when we travel to Eminence!
All of my friends love staying here for our annual float trip. The cabin is decorated beautifully and the porch is our favorite spot to visit with each other. It’s the perfect place to create lasting memories.
This was our 3rd time staying here for me, my husband and our dog. It is such a cozy place to stay for a few days. We love the wraparound deck for coffee and reading in the morning and the firepit at night for s'mores. The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals and we usually grill as well. We love that our dog can come along with us and it is close to several great places for exploring and getting in the water. Definitely recommend!
The cabin was absolutely perfect. It had everything we needed, and it was great to be able to use the kayaks instead of renting. Beds were comfortable and we enjoyed grilling our dinner every night. Highly recommend and can't wait to come back!
It was beautiful cabin and only two minutes from town
We enjoyed it very much the cabin was very clean close to town and had amazing views would 100% recommend to anyone and we plan to return again during the summer
This is our second time staying at rocky bottom ranch and will definitely be back! The place is always clean and the owners are easy to communicate with. We love that we got to bring our pup too!
Cabin was cute, clean, homey and comfortable. Had everything you could ask for and more. Great private feel and close to town at the same time. We would definitely stay again when in this area!
The cabin had everything we needed. It was perfect for our dogs ! And so close to the cute town of Eminence. The lil shops are nice and the Dairy shack was delicious also another restaurant we went to for breakfast was good .
Loved our stay, everything was just as described. Beautiful decor, and we enjoyed the welcome basket. We loved the scenic area in all directions. We also spent time just enjoying the wrap-around porch.
Thanks for a lovely visit.
We enjoyed our time here immensely! This place has all kinds of extras that will make your trip so much easier. Emily was wonderful to work with. Highly recommend!
This cabin was the perfect spot for our spring break getaway! Everything was just as promised…comfortable, cozy and clean! We had a great time exploring parks and trails nearby and spending time relaxing on the property. Thank you for the fantastic accommodations!
Great place and great property managers. The wraparound porch is wonderful for a night of grilling. The views around the property are nice as well. 5 minutes to several food places and grocery store. Will stay here again in the future.

About the host
Hosted by Emily Russell
Our family of 4 likes to enjoy local experiences, especially in the great outdoors! Fishing, swimming, kayaking/ tubing, hiking, biking and eating at local restaurants & ice cream shops are our favorite!
Why they chose this property
This cabin is right at the center of SO MUCH FUN! Everytime we visit, we find out about more places that we need to check out! We LOVE floating and these are arguabley two of Missouri's most gorgeous scenic rivers! With caves to explore and rocks to jump off of, playing in these rivers is one of the best ways a family can spend their summer days!
What makes this property unique
There are 4 herds of wild horses in the area, a ranch dedicated to the repopulation of Missouri elk, among many rivers, creeks, springs and shut-ins within a 30 minute radius of Rocky Bottom Ranch! Many cabins are off the beaten path, but this one is right on highway 19 with a country setting but across from the Dollar General and only a mile for the town center of Eminence. Because of our location, we also have great wifi for work from home scenarios or streaming movies on our roku on rainy days!
