I’d call it Awsome

This cabin is wonderful in every way. I will definitely return. We stayed in February for a winter snowmobile and snowshoe hiking vacation. I’m coming back for a summer vacation too. The lake is right across the street! The proprietor is a friendly gentleman and provides a great experience.

Wonderful Wells Getaway

Highly recommend this cabin. The cleanliness and decor were beyond expectation and location was fabulous. There is a second rental cabin which is visible about 80 yards away but this did not hamper our stay. Hosts were good to work worth but also gave us our privacy. We were also happy to have access to the canoes and kayaks as well as the bonfire pits. Would stay again.

Perfect cabin in a beautiful setting

The cabin was clean and cozy. I loved the screened in front porch with the view of the mountains. Everyone loved the kayaks and the closeness to the beach. And the hosts were great, making our check in and out so simple. We had a perfect vacation.

Cabin trip

It was a great stay! My family and I really enjoyed ourselves at this cabin. It was exactly how it is listed online. It was awesome that they had kayaks and a canoe available to us. Very appreciated. This is an awesome place to fish. In the lake and also in the river. It was very relaxing and such a beautiful cabin to stay in. Will definitely be back.

3 years running!

Love and look forward to our stay at Ruby Hill Cabins every year. Love the proximity to fishing for my nephew. The availability of kayaks and canoes. Only 2 cabins there and you feel very snug and secluded in the woods even though you are so close to everything. Gerry & Susan are very responsive to messages and needs while you are there. We will be back next year!

Relaxing get away.

Nice and clean cabin. Owners were great! There is two cabins and they are kind of close but the people staying next to us were quiet and respectful. Easy walk to the lake. The steps are steep to get to the kayaks but doable. We would definitely do it again.

Fabulous getaway!

We really enjoyed this peaceful gem in the woods, and we are looking forward to booking another stay in the future. Everything was wonderful...the stocked kitchen, the lovely front screened-in porch, the firepit surrounded by the beautiful woods, the kayaks we had access to, along with the public sandy beach. Thank you so much, Susan and Gerry!

Great getaway for two

The cabin was immaculate. We were able to go to Lake George and Saratoga, it was a drive but very beautiful and scenic. We spent our evenings on the screened in porch playing cards and relaxing. Just make sure you bring all your food. There’s a small local mercantile that has essentials and take out (they make the best hero sandwiches) but make sure you have what you need or you’ll be traveling . The host was kind enough to let us know so we were prepared. A wonderful quiet place if you are looking to unwind and relax!

A great getaway

This cabin is perfect for a laid back getaway. Great hiking, swimming, and fishing. The cabin is very clean and comfortable. The property is good for grilling, cornhole and relaxing by the fire pit. It was our second stay at this cabin. It was perfect both times.

Adorable and well-appointed rustic cabin

We liked the small but adorably decorated and well-appointed rustic cabin. Owner Gerry was very friendly and helpful. The other second cabin is a bit close if you like privacy and solitude. Too bad it rained all 3 days and we could not enjoy the outdoors - and there is very little to do in Wells and vicinity in poor weather unless you are visiting someone. The dock and waterfront are not as advertised - the dock is much smaller than the photos show, it's difficult to access down across the road and down steep steps. The seats on the canoe are busted. Nice to try out this area, but we likely will not return.

Beautiful cabin & location

We felt really comfortable in this beautiful cabin. The owners were very sweet and welcoming. We enjoyed the town beach & spent lots of time at the dock with the kayaks and canoe. The view is gorgeous and the water is warm! We loved grilling and having fires every night. Just a heads up- there is a second cabin ~30 ft away from this one that you share the kayaks/dock with. It wasn’t quite as peaceful one night as the children were a bit loud. Nonetheless we still give this a 5 star stay & hope to be back soon!

Cabin in wells

The cabin was as described and met our basic needs. We were a bit disappointed that there wasn’t a nice view of the lake from the property. The owners did not say there was a view- but it seemed like there was from the pictures- our fault. Just a couple of things that would make it nicer: a mattress topper, and a sign at the dock associated with the cabin. Thank you!

Beautiful Location!

We had a lovely stay at Ruby Hill Cabins. Gerry and Susan were responsive and had helpful advice about the area. The cabin itself was very cute and perfect for our family (with two children). We loved that the rental included use of a canoe and kayaks and a wonderful fire pit with Adirondack chairs (naturally) . The location was perfect: walking distance from the beach, close to the dock. There were also quite a few nice hiking trails within a short driving distance. We would absolutely recommend this rental and hope to return.
