Perfect gathering space for a large group! The owners offered so many extra amenities that made the stay comfortable and convenient. Soft blankets everywhere, a large sectional for a big family to relax and watch TV, a cabinet full of games, a well stocked kitchen, full mirrors in all bedrooms, washer and dryer, well appointed and clean outdoor space and so many beds!! The owners are responsive and great to work with. We already look forward to our next stay!

The weather was great! 11 adults, 2 babies, a 4 year old and 7 year old stayed there, grandson & wife lived close by, and son-in-law & wife stayed in campground nearby with their small dogs. Everything was comfortable, clean and kitchen was impressively stocked for every need. My only problem was with BnB booking which had my wrong address and never did get good info from them. The hosts saved the day!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Rathburn Rustic Retreat. The owners are very helpful and accommodating and always easy to contact for details. We celebrated our parents 60th wedding anniversary and 80th birthdays while we were visiting and the retreat provided the perfect space for all of us to be together and make many new memories. Honeycreek resort and state park were both within very close distance and provided some nice amenities for us all to enjoy. It was a great experience and one we highly recommend! Don & Kim Good
8.0 / 10.0
Great time! The house was very well stocked w/kitchen & bathroom items. Was awkward to have an ensuite bathroom with no door. Guests had to use other bathroom during the night. Yard was huge! Garage was also used for indoor space during rainfall. Would recommend house overall 😉

Very clean. Kitchen was well stocked with dis hes, pots and pans. It was a little further from lake than we thought but overall a good experience.

10.0 / 10.0
This home is stocked with everything you need! We had 12 women and we had an amazing time. The bedrooms and beds are comfy, the kitchen was fully stocked, the bathrooms have everything you need. The outside area is really nice. It was a bit cold out but if you enjoy a fire they have all you need for that also. Would totally recommend anyone to stay here.
