Welcome to Backwoods Barbie, where pink dreams meet country queen vibes! Inspired by the sass and sparkle of Barbie and the heart and soul of Dolly Parton, this second-story private condo is not your average overnight stay—it’s a full-blown experience. Located right off I-70 in the charming town of Russell, Kansas, this iconic stop is one of the most unique places to stay in the state and a must-see roadside gem.
You're just minutes from Main Street, where small-town charm shines with an old-time movie theater, cozy coffee shops, charming bookstores, a gourmet kitchen store, antique treasures, local bars, and great restaurants. Planning some day trips? You’re in the perfect spot! Explore quirky roadside attractions like the famous Garden of Eden, the World’s Largest Czech Egg, the Oldest Catholic Church in Kansas, local breweries, and more.
This cozy condo sleeps up to four with a full-size bed and a full size air mattress. Smart TVs and Wi-Fi throughout, plus a private deck that’s just perfect for watching those golden Kansas sunsets. The kitchenette includes a refrigerator, microwave, air fryer, and a coffee bar to keep your mornings fabulous. Guests also have access to the community laundry, grill, and firepit—just clean up after yourself, and everyone stays happy!
We're pet-friendly too—with prior approval and a nightly pet fee. Basic toiletries and towels are included, because Dolly wouldn’t have it any other way. So why stay at a boring hotel when Backwoods Barbie is calling your name? Come see why folks are making a detour just to stay here.
From the moment you step inside, you’ll be wrapped in a warm hug of nostalgia and sparkle, with decor inspired by the Queen of Country. The pink velvet couch is perfect for kicking back with a good book (perhaps one of the many Dolly reads you’ll find here), and the walls are adorned with curated collectibles celebrating her legacy. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed to reflect Dolly’s signature blend of glam and down-home charm, making this a stay unlike any other.
The bungalow features a plush queen bed outfitted with luxury linens, ensuring you rest as sweetly as a country lullaby. The fully stocked bathroom boasts a walk-in shower with all the amenities you need to feel pampered. And for those who believe that “it costs a lot of money to look this cheap,” rest assured—this place is filled with stylish touches that would make even Dolly herself feel at home.
Need a little pick-me-up before hitting the road? The kitchenette includes a refrigerator, coffee bar, and an air fryer/toaster oven, plus an intimate breakfast nook where you can sip your morning brew and plan your day’s adventures. Want to take in a little fresh air? Step out onto the private 10-foot deck, complete with cozy seating and a grill (available from April to September), perfect for unwinding under the stars.
For those who love a little entertainment, the bungalow is equipped with Smart TVs and high-speed WiFi, so you can stream your favorite Dolly tunes or unwind with a good movie. Whether you’re here to explore the nearby lake, hit up Russell’s local spots, or simply take a much-needed break from the 9-to-5, Backwoods Barbie Bungalow is your ultimate country-chic escape.
