We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ridgecrest. The condo is well-equipped, clean and the beds were very comfortable. Comfortable porch furniture as well. The owner has a ton of attention to detail and there was not a single thing we needed that they had not already thought of. Highly recommend! ##### Molly S.

Echota on the Ridge is top of the line and this property was the best of the best. Beautifully appointed, everything as or better than described and fully equipped kitchen. Porch view was stunning and the furniture was in perfect condition and comfortable. This 3 bedroom 3 bath unit was spacious and perfect for our 3 generation trip. Host was the best. Thank you! ##### Mike E.

Don't hesitate to book this one! It felt like we were staying in a friend's home rather than a rental. You can tell the owners take pride in their unit because there are lots of extra touches that feel homey and cozy. We had a minor issue after arriving but it was something out of the owner's control and they were on top of it and made it right very quickly so rating this unit at 5 stars across the board was a no brainer. Gorgeous views, fantastic location and very spacious! ##### Jordan K.

The view was outstanding! We all enjoyed our stay and having 3 king beds was a big plus in our book - especially for our two teen/young adults boys. We’ve been to Echota before, and this unit was one of our favorites. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a9a7ddbc-ab2a-41aa-ae69-951531a7fc6c-1751064179605.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lisa H.
