This is a truly wonderful place to stay. We were lucky enough to get the last couple cold days of the season I think. Lots of lovely birds, including a juvenile bald eagle, and plenty of peace and quiet. The fencing on the property is sufficient even for our curious chihuahua mix, but even so we kept a pretty good eye on her due to possible skunks and of course the large raptors. Everything was clean and comfortable. Central heat was nice on the day we didn't feel like messing with the fireplace. Pics are super accurate, as a matter of fact I think the cabin probably looks even large inside in person. (You get so used to those awful fisheye pics on other listings.) Shari was lovely to deal with and Jim was available there on the property for emergencies but still allows absolute privacy for the guests. Quiet and private, but if you feel like going out for a meal or a drink, there is a cute place less than a 10 minute walk. All in all, just perfect. We'll be back in a warmer season in the future when we can use the boats.

Ruby's is an amazing property with wonderful lake views and plenty of wildlife. It is so peaceful and the cabin gives you all the basics you need to disconnect from the daily rush. Our 2 dogs had plenty of room to roam safely and our 2 boys had ample room to throw the football, run around, dig in the mud and make structures from the frozen pieces of ice they found near the lake's edge. I could spend many days and nights sitting on the porch and watching the lake! Nights are amazing necause the sky is clear enough to see all the bright stars!

My husband, puppy and I spent Christmas to New Year’s at Ruby’s cabin on Rainbow Lake. No snow but we had a fantastic time and the accommodations were great. Our dog loved watching the geese and ducks off shore and running around in the fenced 4 acres property. Nearby hiking was plentiful and the trails are very well maintained. We discovered Lotus Garden and had the best Chinese food I have had in a long time, especially in AZ. The cabin is well appointed and the wood burning stove keeps things cozy. You can tell the owners love their cabin and it has been in the family since the 1950s. The owner is easy to reach if needed. Just a perfect getaway!

The cabin was exactly as advertised, and completely wonderful. Just the unplug and relaxation that we needed. Shari was an amazing host, and extremely thorough with communication. There were a couple of things going on, right before our stay was coming up, and she notified us of everything. She also answered all of our questions in the months prior to the trip.The cabin has everything one would need to cook, bake, BBQ, slow cook, etc. It was setup so that everything was easy to find - easy to get your bearings. The view, and the lake, and the amount of open land area for our pets was amazing, even better than advertised - absolutely stunning. We did, unfortunately, have some pretty ugly weather, for the first couple of days, due to tropical storms Priscilla and Raymond, but, after the crazy rains and wind, it was just gorgeous! The family and I will definitely be booking again. Cannot wait, truly a little slice of heaven!!

Peaceful Retreat

This was our second time at Ruby’s cabin, and we cannot wait to come back next year. We’ve stayed at quite a few cabins in the area, but this by far my family’s favorite.My daughter loved feeding baby geese, kayaking, and just hanging out in the hammock. It’s a gorgeous setting, the cabin itself is nostalgic and charming, and the owners show real pride in the property.Thanks for another amazing stay!

Rainbow Lake Weekend

It was our second trip to the Ruby Cabin. We just love it. So peaceful and beautiful spot right on the lake. We took our large dog, she enjoyed running around the property and wading in the lake. Had some nice conversation with Jim, one of the owners. Looking forward to our next visit!

This was our second stay at Ruby’s and like the first time it was incredibly relaxing. We and our two dogs felt very welcome and the cabin has so many nice touches. The deck is awesome and the view of the lake from the cabin beautiful. We are looking forward to our next visit. Shari and Jim are great hosts.

Great cabin on the lake!

My wife and I spent three wonderful days at this cabin. We have two dogs, who loved checking out the critters and the lake. The fact that the site was large yet fully enclosed was a real plus for us. Other places may have a fenced in area behind the house, but here the dogs could enjoy the entire property with us and did not need to be leashed.

Amazing!

The pictures do not do Ruby or the lake justice. It was absolutely perfect - quiet and peaceful. My husband fished pretty much 24-7 and caught enough to keep him happy. Our dogs absolutely loved it and the geese and other wildlife were charming and entertaining. We cannot wait to visit again. Thank you Shari and Jim!
