Fantastic stay

The cabin was absolutely perfect. It had everything we needed, and it was great to be able to use the kayaks instead of renting. Beds were comfortable and we enjoyed grilling our dinner every night. Highly recommend and can't wait to come back!

2nd time staying here

This was our 2nd trip to this property. We enjoyed it so much last year we decided to come back. Great house! We like that there is a yard for our dog, everything you could ever need to cook a meal, a grill, an awesome deck with plenty of chairs to relax in and a nice firepit area. Definitely recommend!

Perfect cabin getaway

This cabin was PERFECT for us! Four adults and our doggos slept comfortably, played games, made waffles, grilled steaks, used the kayaks, and ran around in the fenced in yard over two days. The cabin was clean and stocked SO well. The communication was top notch, couldn’t have asked for better. There were only three adult life jackets for kayaking, so I’d maybe consider bringing your own, but that wasn’t a huge deal as there were youth ones and my mom is small 😂 honestly, so minimal in the grand scheme of the stay. We will definitely be back to stay again!

Adorable cabin with best location and amenities!

This cabin was located right on the edge of town across the street from a Dollar General, making it super convenient. However, it still has a very private feel and lots of outdoor space. The fenced in yard for our dog was such a perk. The owner is super responsive as well, which is so helpful. I am so glad I found this gem. I will definitely be booking with Russell Properties for my next Eminence stay! Highly recommend!

Wonderful cabin in the heart of river country

Our stay at Rocky Bottom Ranch was absolutely perfect! We’ve stayed at many cabins for our river adventures & this one was by far the cleanest. It is conveniently located within minutes of river outfitters, state parks, restaurants, & shopping. The covered parking was a wonderful bonus. We’d recommend RBR to anyone & everyone!

About the host

Hosted by Emily Russell

Host profile image
Our family of 4 likes to enjoy local experiences, especially in the great outdoors! Fishing, swimming, kayaking/ tubing, hiking, biking and eating at local restaurants & ice cream shops are our favorite!

Why they chose this property

This cabin is right at the center of SO MUCH FUN! Everytime we visit, we find out about more places that we need to check out! We LOVE floating and these are arguabley two of Missouri's most gorgeous scenic rivers! With caves to explore and rocks to jump off of, playing in these rivers is one of the best ways a family can spend their summer days!

What makes this property unique

There are 4 herds of wild horses in the area, a ranch dedicated to the repopulation of Missouri elk, among many rivers, creeks, springs and shut-ins within a 30 minute radius of Rocky Bottom Ranch! Many cabins are off the beaten path, but this one is right on highway 19 with a country setting but across from the Dollar General and only a mile for the town center of Eminence. Because of our location, we also have great wifi for work from home scenarios or streaming movies on our roku on rainy days!
