About this property

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.

Wonderful Stay

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.

Excellent family experience...

The cabin was absolutely beautiful and everything was extremely well stocked and kept. The property was fantastic for a weekend escape. We especially enjoyed the fire pit, fireplace and the trails. Check in was easy and simple. The information provided by the host was thorough. We will absolutely be back.

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.

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.

Cute place! The cabin fulfilled my family’s needs for the weekend. The cabin is well equipped, my kids even found a set of dominoes and the game Yahtzee (my family’s favorite game)! I forgot my shampoo and condition bottles in the upstairs bathroom. Bummed me because the bottles were pretty new. So hopefully someone is enjoying the set vs. tossing them in the trash.The cabin was clean and the AC worked. Those are two key items my family and I expect to be

About the host

Hosted by Cristin Barrett

Host profile image
We are four sisters who came back to our home state of Missouri to renovate and revitalize our father's cabin.

Growing up we went on many road trips as a family. Often we went to places where our dad could take us on cowboy adventures. We went horseback riding fishing and boating. We were often in nature and we stayed in log cabins along the way. However at the time as four little girls we didn't necessarily share all the love of the outdoors with our father. So, we always stayed in a nice place with a bed and bathroom and we never camped further from the backyard porch light!

Now with Ridgetop Cabin we want to emulate that sense of exploration and adventure, and love of nature our dad imparted to us with our sense of comfort fun and indulgence.

We hope our guests enjoy the beauty of Missouri's landscape at Ridgetop Cabin with all the nonessential luxuries of home.

Happy Glamping!
The Barrett Sisters
