Beautiful property. Equipped with everything needed for an enjoyable stay. Conveniently located in a peaceful area of Waynesville. The Alpaca farm that was next door was perfect scenery!

This is such an amazing property. As soon as you walk in it feels like you are home. I honestly didn't want to leave. If you're a nature nerd like me, you will not be disappointed! From the welcoming calls of the blue jays when we first arrived to 25 varieties of birds I found on my Merlin app, this is a great place to bring your binoculars. I was especially in awe of the night sky. Sitting on the back deck with the lights out brought the Milky Way to life. With no light pollution, the stars gleamed brightly. Although we didn't have time to visit the adorable alpacas down the hill, it was fun to watch them from the expansive front deck. Although we were only in Waynesville to attend my daughter's wedding for a short while, our stay was elevated by choosing Heather's home to lay our heads at night. It gave me a quiet, reflective place to unwind from all of the months of planning and excitement from the day. I will be looking for excuses to come back and visit again.

Beautiful Home and Property

The home was just as beautiful as listed on VRBO. Everything was clean, tidy and we had a gorgeous view of the mountains. There was plenty of room for our family with a large covered back porch for outside dining. We highly recommend this home for family vacations.

Great rental place in a great area

I stayed here with 5 family members and another couple. The place served us very well. There was plenty of room for everyone for just hanging out and for sleeping. There's a lot of great places to eat and drink around Waynesville and beyond and it's only a 10-minute ride to Waynesville. I would consider staying at this rental again if I'm ever back in the area.

Iron Duff’s Best

We had a great time staying at the Harmony in Iron Duff Haywood County NC. The property was spacious, clean, and offered everything we needed for comfort. This is a great location to “get away” yet offers easy access to main routes to many attractions in the Smokies. We put it on our list of places we will revisit.

Wonderful Christmas house!

Our family loved staying at River Ridge for Christmas! The house was beautiful, well-stocked, and comfortable for our whole group. The location was perfect - we enjoyed trips to Waynesville, Asheville, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Heather was easy to get in touch with about any questions we had and very responsive.

Wonderful Pet Friendly Summer Getaway

This property totally blew us away. Everything was perfect except the outdoor grill, which they replaced with a brand new grill within 24 hours. Awesome view, great location, totally clean and comfortable. My Wife and I will definitely be back next Summer.

Spring break 2023

We had a great time visiting for Spring break. The house was beautifully decorated and well stocked. The views are absolutely gorgeous. Everywhere we wanted to go was within a reasonable distance, so the location was perfect. Waking up to the beautiful mountain views and the alpaca’s next door made our stay so relaxing. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us.

Beautiful Setting

The home was immaculate inside with every essential needed. The mountains were so beautiful and the charm and kindness of the residents in the small towns was so special! The home overlooks a well kept property next door of adorable alpacas grazing. Thank you Heather for your visit with us and making sure everything was just right! A jewel!

Perfection

This was the place we had always hoped existed. Spacious, clean, fun (pool table & multiple TV's), but most importantly, the setting. That's why we went to the mountains... for tranquility, serenity and relaxation without feeling utterly cut off from civilization. We were only 6 1/2 miles from Publix and other amenities when needed. I hope we can return.

Simply the Best

This lovely home has all the best things… 1) easy access to town, 2) beautiful views of the alpaca neighbors and sunrises, 3) lots of room to stretch out, 4) unlimited hot water - with 6 of us, we never ran out! and 5) amazing amenities in the home. Heather was very responsive and protective in communication. The home was well cleaned and comfortable! We will be back again! I think we’ve found our annual NC vacation landing place!

Just Perfect

This is the kind of place we were looking for. The house felt so cozy and homie that we didn’t want to leave. Very relaxing and quiet neighborhood. Pictures are very accurate and the house was very clean all around. The Alpaca’s next door were a treat since they stayed staring at me while I was walking my dog in the front yard every morning. House is very accessible and close to different cities like Maggie Valley and Waynesville. For a little longer drive then you have Asheville and Bryson City. It was a plus that we could park the car inside the garage. We really loved the property and communication with Heather was very good! I can’t recommend this place enough and we will definitely be back!!!

Excellent stay in the mountains

Centrally located in a rural setting between Ashville and Great Smokey Mountains with beautiful views from kitchen/great room. There are other houses on these 2+ acre lots but most of them seem unoccupied (vacation homes) so the setting is very tranquil. Clean, organized and functional. The only room for improvement: the booking is non refundable and there is a significant cleaning fee yet we were given a list of chores to do before checking out (even though we left at 6am). Like many people using STRs the list of pre check out chores plus increasing fees is making us reconsider if its even worth it. Second there is a Keurig style/pod coffee maker but bring your own (none provided). There is a drip coffee maker. Just add coffee to shopping list.
