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.

I thought the front and back porches were disgusting. Had a lot of bird feces on them to the point. It was not enjoyable to sit outside. I didn’t want to walk in it and I did not want my pets to walk in it.The house has all the accommodations you need. Host thought of everything. The host reached out within an hours of contact.

A beautiful and comfy property with plenty of space inside and out. Well marked paths through the property made it easy to traipse through the woods. And a surprise cup of hot cocoa after a chilly day doing just that was just icing on the cake (no cake though…).

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
