Great Cabin
Such a great mountain cabin! The views were great and the cabin was very cozy...this is exactly what us from FL were expecting for a winter retreat. The cabin was perfect for the two families that went. Plenty of space! Having a little movie room was awesome. We truly enjoyed this cabin and hope to return yearly. Also, were surprised how close we where to several golf courses, good restaurants, snow tubing and amazing water falls. We enjoyed pretty good weather so where able to take some day trips to explore the area. We loved it and will definitely return to the Sapphire/Cahiers area. Sally was a pleasure to work with. She communicated very quickly and was very helpful. My friend left her Dyson blow-dryer in one of the bathrooms. Sally and Bryan quickly helped and mailed it back to us! Thank you!

Great Vacation!
We have stayed in the Cashiers area during the July 4th holiday for the last 5 years . By far, we enjoyed our time in this home as much or more than any with its amazing views. The home was very well appointed with all we needed during our 7-night stay. The views from the back porch were amazing and among the best of the homes we have rented in the past. Daily afternoon rain showers were showcased by a beautiful rainbow reaching down into the valley. One small challenge was promptly addressed by the property manager. Overall, the property met our expectations. The only small exception might be the bed in the bottom floor. It has limited privacy and the bathroom for that bedroom is adjacent to the theater room. This did not prove to be a problem for us as my son and daughter in law used this floor as their personal suite! It also made it easier for them as their dog stayed in the utility room as requested which is right by the bedroom area downstairs with direct access outside. We would recommend this property to anyone that is interested in gorgeous views, nice amenities at Sapphire Resort and a quick commute to most areas of interest.

Beautiful home
The house was perfect for our 2 adult children, 2 grands, and us ….Kitchen had anything necessary if you want to cook. We did breakfast there and maybe one night ate our leftovers in! Plenty of appliances, dishes, and of course a great coffee maker. All bedrooms perfect with comfortable beds. We never used the game area as we were gone most days. Owner was kind and even offered us an extra day due to bad weather. Beautiful view, we would rent again.

The house was perfect, large enough for all of us but still with a very cozy feel, and the views were just stunning. Beds and couches were comfortable, and there was plenty of wood provided for the fireplace which we kept in operation pretty much all day, every day. Kitchen facilities were great. The property manager was helpful and quickly responsive to questions. A lovely and relaxing vacation for my family!

Great house, amazing view!
We really enjoyed our family stay in Cashiers for Thanksgiving. The house had everything we could possibly need to cook a nice meal and enjoy our time together. It was very nice to bring our family pets along with us, as they go everywhere with us and they even enjoyed the tree lighting ceremony in downtown Cashiers. Sitting outside and enjoying the view along with the sound of the waterfall every day was probably our favorite part. The only thing I really "complained" about the whole week was not having blinds or curtains in the master bathroom. Some may not mind but with the deck right there it wasn't my favorite, but we made it work. I would pay a little extra if there was a hot tub on the property, that would be a huge bonus. Overall it was a fantastic stay and we would definitely return.

Spectacular views!
This is our 3rd time staying in the neighborhood but the first for this specific property. The house was roomy and comfortable. The views from the deck are world class! The 4 bedroom layout is best suited for 4 couples and less so for 5 single guys. There was a power outage one night (I think it affected the whole street), but this was overnight and not a bother. We had bear visitors so make sure your car is free of food and locked. Very enjoyable stay. Oh, and no phone service for Verizon but wifi works great.
