Welcome to Rippling Waters, nestled down on the North Mills River, in Mills River, NC.

This leads directly out to the 2,000 square foot patio with outdoor seating/tables and the river where a refreshing swim and hungry trout await.

Explore the Outdoors:
Rippling Waters sits on nearly four acres of riverfront, wide open fields to allow your special furry family members to run, play some outdoor games, or post up under the magical large maple tree with a book. In the back, we have a 2,000 square foot patio equipped with outdoor tables, seating and a firepit overlooking the Mills River. We also have a relaxing, shaded and quite area with a covered shelter with tables, hammocks and steps leading down to the river.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Very nice and comfortable place. Had everything you could think of! Kitchen overly stocked. It was great. The river was better than expected. Definitely recommend. I didn’t have children there but can see how amazing it would be for a young family. Host very responsive.
