The cabin was so nice. It had every possible amenity. We spent a lot of time on the shady back porch where a small creek runs. They have a fire pit where we roasted marsh mellows. I definitely will be back. ##### Anthony B. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Krista R. 30 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Absolutely stunning home! This place far exceeded our expectations. The home was stunning. We had a small wedding in the backyard, and it was just perfect. The home was fully stocked with everything! The host and owners are so kind and helpful. Our kids loved the zebra and buffalo on the property. I would give this place 10 stars and would stay again. Thank you R&D Ranch for making our special day magical!! ##### Krista R. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eric H. 8 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The place was beautiful, clean, and perfect for our group. Everyone loved it. One minor glitch was a strange (mildew-like) smell that was in the Master bedroom closet for the first day and a half, but it went away with windows open and fans on before we needed to contact the owners. This was minor compared to our overall experience, and I'm definitely leaving the rating at 5 stars. ##### Eric H.
