    We were not disappointed when we arrived to RiverDance! It was all that we had hoped for and could not have had a nicer stay. We were very warmly received by Callie and Dave and by the time we left, we felt as though we had known them forever! We stayed in the downstairs level and enjoyed plenty of space that was very clean, comfortable and cozy. Our girls loved the hot tub on the deck which was the highlight of their stay. The views were gorgeous and to be honest, it was hard to leave!

    We experienced the peak of the Fall color in NC here and it was delightful. The hosts made us feel at home and we enjoyed our mornings with them at breakfast. Our dog, Zoe, also was welcomed and had fun playing with their girl, Midge. We were able to make day trips to Asheville, Gatlinburg and hiked to see the amazing waterfalls in the area. Definitely will be returning soon!

    A great place to stay – up in the mountains of NC; rooms private and spacious; hosts helpful, accommodating, and well-informed; the views breathtaking. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this is the place to come. We highly recommend this wonderful establishment – try it and see for yourself!

    Callie and Dave have an awesome set-up with the most amazing view of God' glory. The hospitality was real...you know that genuine stuff..personable and caring. If you were on the bottom or third floors and you did not want to access the common areas, you did not have too. You could enter and exit without even being seen. We were given their master suite b/c they were booked and it was great! If you have AT&T, it will not work. We wil definitely return with the family! Awesome experience!

    River Dance is AWESOME! We loved the views. The property itself is at the top of a residential neighborhood, but you really feel like you are in the mountains. The house is magnificent and the rooms are immaculate, private, spacious and very comfortable with all conveniences of home if only your home was in such a magnificent location. The owners, Dave and Callie are very accommodating, providing perfect directions and helpful information and suggestions for exploring the towns and trails in western North Carolina. The location is close to restaurants and shopping as well as downtown Asheville and the local attractions. Callie is wonderful to work with and makes you feel so welcome. The hosts even provided a basket filled with yummy snacks to enjoy while there. From making the reservations to checking out, everything went smoothly. They were extremely prompt and thorough in all their communications and were wonderful "hosts" - I wish a typical hotel had half their thoughtfulness and attention to detail! We were impressed with the care and attention that Dave and Callie had taken to see that we had everything we needed to make our stay perfect. We felt pampered and welcomed, and I do not hesitate to recommend their accommodations to everyone. Thank you, Callie for everything.
