The dining area was really helpful because we were visiting with family and friends so we were able to have a nice meal with game night and be comfortable

I had a great time during my month long stay at Rip's Retreat. It's a special place that holds an inspiring tone. I got a lot of rest and good work done. Thank you! - Lizzie

Rip's Mountain Retreat is a cozy, clean, comfortable stay close to lots of hiking and cute small towns. During our stay, we experienced extreme weather and needed some assistance. The property manager and host were incredibly responsive and helpful and had someone come out to the property immediately to assist us. The house had everything we needed for our weekend stay. We would return!
