Ridgewood Estates is comprised of 50 acres developed into 50 homesites and lies on the southern edge of Waynesville, N.C. It is within the city limits and has all of the city services including sewer and water. The streets are paved and easy to drive.

Most of the home sites have outstanding views – Many have views of the Blue Ridge Parkway, which lies 7-8 miles in the distance. The community has a children’s playground, tennis courts, a basketball goal, and a central location for cookouts around a campfire.

This was the first Smoky Mountain Retreat to be developed and now has a variety of completed log homes nestled among the heavily wooded sites. Wild turkey and grouse still share the habitat of this pristine community along with many other interesting forest natives.

Lovely cabin.😍 We are from Florida and really enjoyed our stay. There was a problem with the AC for a couple of days which was very uncomfortable. It didn’t work at all!! It was repaired after 2 days and worked fine.

Beautiful spacious home in a quiet neighborhood
Plenty of room for two families to both be together and have their own space. Inviting indoor and outdoor spaces. Close to town but in quiet surroundings - a lot of the time it's hard to tell there are other homes nearby. One small piece of constructive criticism; it would have been nice to have more pots, pans, spatulas, and serving spoons to use.

Lack of info
There were absolutely no instructions for using the fireplace ( unusable therefore), ice maker was inoperable due to its being locked, no garbage can nor instructions for where to place same. Called the emergency number Thanksgiving am, left a message, never heard back. Called the office during office hours on Friday and they did not answer. Finally called emergency number Sat pm to know where to place garbage. Have stayed at a number of VBRO’s over the years but always had instructions. We had no idea what to do about linens etc. and three phone calls provided no answers. The house was lovely and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there, but PLEASE leave arriving and departing information. Betty Whaley
