This was great for our girls’ trip. The deck and hot tub were spaces where we relaxed and talked. Our host was helpful when we lost electricity for 4 hours after a storm. We liked the close proximity to town where we boarded the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad and found places to eat. It was an enjoyable stay.

We enjoyed our stay! The home was very clean and provided many extras that made it cozy. We loved sitting on the porches overlooking the mountains. We even saw a beautiful deer during our stay. The host provided quick communication and made sure our stay was going well. We would recommend this home and hope to be able to stay again in the future!

The house was a great three-level plan. Two gathering areas were quite nice for eating at kitchen bar/kitchen on mid level. There was a large coffee bar on lowest level with high top table for game-playing. (There was a nice variety of games there for us to play.). I cannot think of one item we needed that webwere unable find in kitchen or coffee bar on mid level. We spent most of our time in Bryson City and commute was close, simple and convenient. There was an Ingles Grocery Store and Dollar General on way into Bryson City. It felt like we were remote but were very near Bryson City. We were also located very near highways we took to mountain drives in search of Waterfalls. I WOULD DEFINITELY RETURN!!

Great location to the train

We booked this property as we were looking for one that was close to the Great Smokey Mountain Railroad for The Polar Express. It was less than a 10 minute drive. The property was well stocked, clean, new and the host was amazing to work with. Would definitely stay here again.

We loved our stay! It was perfect for our family of six. Everything was perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. The hot tub was an amazing way to end our days of tubing and zip-lining. I liked that it was close to everything and still had a nice view of the mountains. Cynthia was so helpful, kind and accommodating. Definitely will be back.

Excellent VRBO- Start to Finish!

This was an exceptional VRBO and it impressed us around every corner. We have promoted it to everyone we know! The hosts were very communicative, the house was clean and orderly, well decorated, the stay was filled with thoughtfulness down to crafts for the children and coffee and sheets/towels/shampoo. We could not have been happier and plan to return!

Pleasant Mountain Getaway

This property was exactly what we expected. It was clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the back and front decks and the picturesque mountain view. We enjoy cooking and everything we needed was available in the kitchen. Each bedroom was comfortable and had its own private bathroom.

About the host

Hosted by Cynthia Roberts

Host profile image
We’re Wayne (the Canadian) and Cynthia (the Southern girl)! We may call Atlanta home, but Bryson City quickly became our favorite escape. At RnR Ridge, we love sharing the little things that make this spot special — waving at the train from the deck, soaking in the hot tub, and being just minutes from downtown adventures. We want every guest to feel like they’re staying with friends, not just booking a house.

Why they chose this property

We first came to Bryson City looking for a little mountain escape and quickly fell in love with its charm. It has just the right mix of small-town friendliness, stunning Smoky Mountain views, and endless things to do — from tubing at Deep Creek to riding the train downtown. For us, it’s the kind of place where you can slow down, make memories, and still be close to all the adventures that make the Smokies so special. That’s why we built RnR Ridge here ... to share the spot that stole our hearts with others who are looking for the same.

What makes this property unique

RnR Ridge is a rare find in Bryson City — a brand-new 3BR/3BA home (built in 2023) with three decks, year-round Smoky Mountain views, and even train sightings from the porch. Just 3 miles from downtown, it’s in a quiet neighborhood that’s both peaceful and convenient. After exploring Deep Creek, NOC, Cherokee, or Fontana Lake, relax in the hot tub or gather around the fire pit. Fresh, modern, and full of charm ... RnR Ridge is your Smoky Mountain getaway.
