The Ridge Ranch offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, largely thanks to the host, Melissa, who is noted for her exceptional hospitality and helpfulness. Campers appreciate the peaceful setting and the convenience of amenities like a hot tub, making it an ideal spot for relaxation. The location is also praised for its proximity to rivers and outdoor activities, with the added bonus of kayak rentals and shuttles provided by Melissa. Though there are some mentions of road noise and lack of shade during hot weather, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with guests eager to return.

Great spot for easy overnight or long term stay. Melissa was extremely gracious and communicative. I mentioned fishing in passing to her via text and she immediately responded with multiple gps pins of great spots on the river. Didn’t have to take the time to do that, but she did. All the stars.

Melissa has such a gem of a little camp! We’ve stayed a few times now and I would 100% recommend her place to anyone looking to stay in the area! Of course the hot tub and shared patio was amazing as well!

Melissa is a gem. Very accommodating, knowledgeable about everything in the area. Power and water were top notch, sewer dump was convenient , very quiet area. It was 95-100F when I was there and there is no shade in RV park. She has quite the vision for her 10 acres. I will stay there again when I’m in the area.

The Ridge Ranch was absolutely fantastic! I will definitely be back, and plan on staying here whenever I am in the area. The location is so convenient to all of the rivers, not to mention that, Melissa, the owner, has a kayak business, and will take you anywhere! The hot tub was glorious, and the view over the ridge was breathtaking. Melissa is a total rockstar. She did everything in her power to make me extremely happy during my stay not to mention, I gained a friend for life!
