Ruffinit has it all! Sitting on top of 2.8 acres, it is in a very private location with nothing but silence around you. Enjoy the long range mountain views from the screened in porch or the oversized deck.
Ruffinit cabin is really not ruffing it! It is extremely comfortable with all the amenities from home including broadband internet. The cabin inside is constructed in beautiful tongue and groove yellow pine and has been furnished and equipped with everything you need for a great vacation. Main floor bedrooms recently got new hardwood floors, some photos may show carpet. The pottery, pictures and knickknack's all go together to give you a very 'homey' feeling.
On this mountain, there is also a fishing pond, beautiful waterfalls, hiking trails and an outdoor pavilion. Please follow all neighborhood posted signs and rules. Renters assume all liability and risk while using neighborhood amenities.
Currently Buck Mountain is experiencing a drought as of 2024 (it takes about 2 years for rain to get to the well). We have had some guest run out of water in the house after taking long showers but is rare as of Oct 2024. Water will regenerate within minutes but long baths are not possible. We also supply the drinking water and water for flushing in case water does run out during your stay. Again it will come back slowly within minutes.
