The house was fully stocked and felt like a real home. They had it decorated for fall, and was a great place to spend the week. We had everything we needed. The multiple decks and outdoor amenities were fantastic and used daily. We will absolutely look to book this home again.

Best Mountain Weekend Stay

We loved our weekend stay when we dropped our girls off at camp. It was so peaceful, clean, and beautiful! Our favorite spot to sit and relax was the screened in porch. Our dog was welcome and loved relaxing at the house and taking walks around the neighborhood. We will definitely stay here again!

A wonderful mountain hideaway

We've visited the Cashiers/Sapphire, NC area before but this was our first time with a VRBO property. The cabin was well-appointed, very clean, and extremely comfortable. Gwenn was a delight to work with and very responsive.

Wonderful stay in the mountains

We travel to the mountains twice a year and we always travel with our dog. This house is very nice and has everything you would ever need. The owners really make you feel welcome in their home from supplying k-cups for your morning coffee to brochures of beautiful sapphire and things to do. Would definitely stay at hog back again!

Fabulous mountain home

This home truly felt like a home away from home. Well-stocked kitchen, cozy decor, and the screened in porch was like being in a treehouse looking down into an enchanted forest! The owner was a delight to speak to. Nice neighborhood for walking our dog and close to excellent restaurants. We hope to visit again!
