We loved the cottage! Great location just outside of Mountain View. Place was very neat, clean and comfortable. Would definitely book again.

Perfect

The view from the decks is amazing! The access down to the water is perfect for fishing from the bank. Location was away from the hustle and busywork life’s we have. Having WiFi was a great additive to being able to keep up when needed. Couldn’t recommend this place enough. We enjoyed the fire pit near the deck one night and then enjoyed the back yard fire pit by the river the final night. Much needed relaxation this past weekend! Thank you for sharing your wonderful property with us!

Eclipse!

Never before have I stayed at a property that exceeded my expectations based on the pictures and descriptions on VRBO! The home at Ruby's Landing is beyond wonderful! The setting is fantastic - quiet, beautiful and serene. It is remote, but that adds to the allure for me. The home is lovely, comfortable and has everything you could need except your party and food! Simply a fantastic location

Beautiful property

This property has stunning views of the White River and Ozarks. It's very secluded and private. It's also very isolating. Very easy to get to, though. GPS takes you right there. 30 minutes to any nearby town. We've never experienced that before, so it was an adjustment. However, we loved it. Our favorite town was Calico Rock. Oh - you're surrounded by dry counties, so heads up. Nearest brewery is 48 minutes away, but worth the drive. It's not far from Blanchard Springs Caverns, which we recommend as well. Mountain View is 30 minutes away. That's the best place to get groceries. Quaint area with some good antique shopping and restaurants. I enjoyed Sasquatch Cave, the coffee shop on main street and PJs Rainbow Cafe. Printing Press Cafe is Calico was amazing, and there are some cute shops there. Be sure to visit the museum. There is an overlook that you can't pass up there as well. We'd stay here again. There is a new mercantile opening up on March 30th just down the road. I think that will be so helpful to pick up dinner or some essentials. Owners are very friendly and nice. They offered to show us around even though they hadn't opened yet.
