I welcome our CABIN guests to come and enjoy OUR FAMILY TREASURE !!! CASHIERS LOG CABIN is a member of the Cashiers Area Chamber of Commerce.
Bryan Shinn purchased this Cabin in 2016
Why Bryan Shinn chose Sapphire
My mom previewed many miles of mountain properties. In October 2002, Dave Bauer, developer of The Divide at Bald Rock, took her on a tour of the community after a fall rain when the waterfall was running hard. The development was in its infant stages and she acquired what Dave said was "his most private and prestigious lot." This lot has amazing views of the Divide Valley below. Once she saw the community, the amazing views from the lot and all of the Sapphire Valley Master Association amenities, she knew this lot was the ONE! Mom held the vacant land for 11 years. Mom and I combined resources to build this amazing cabin. The cabin was completed in July of 2016. It truly is an amazing property. I was so happy to help Mom to build her dream! In November 2019, I became sole owner of the property. The cabin sleeps 6-8 people very comfortably with plenty of room for portable sleepers for children. It has two levels. Upstairs is the main living area with cathedral ceilings, amazing mountain views, 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, full kitchen, laundry room, living room and dining area, stone over sized wood burning fireplace in living room and stone gas log fireplace in the master bedroom. The cabin has a 12x80 covered porch on the upper and lower levels. Access to the deck from the living area, master bedroom and bedroom 2. All of the access rooms also feature amazing panoramic mountain valley views. The lower level is the recreation room. It features a full home theatre system, SONY 4k UHD 75" TV, satellite TV, Playstation and X-box with SONY 7.2 surround sound, The lower level also has an amazing hand crafted cedar bar, hot and cold bar sink, full size refrigerator, leather wrap around sofa, leather sofa with queen fold out sleeper, game table, recliner and a FULL BATHROOM downstairs. The lower level also has a 12x80 covered deck with amazing views. Sapphire Valley Resort amenities are included. NOMINAL FEE $2 PER PERSON PER DAY OVER AGE 14, MINIMUM 3 DAYS
What makes this Cabin unique
This is the ultimate "get away from it all" cabin. The cabin offers complete privacy on 4.2 acres, but you are still very close to all amenities and downtown Cashiers. The cabin features the latest SONY 4K ultra High Definition televisions. 75" smart 4k in the theater room. 55" smart 4k in the living room with full swivel wall mount. 48" smart 4k in the master bedroom and (2) 40" smart tv's in each of the upstairs bedrooms. High speed internet with WiFi throughout the property. Direct TV satelitte with HD channels. Playstation 4 and Xbox one for the kids (big and small). The cabin has over 2000 square feet of covered porches(1,000 sq ft upper level and 1,000 sq ft lower level). The porches (upper and lower levels) offer amazing panoramic views of the Divide valley below. You can also hear the nearby waterfall when it is running and view the waterfall in low foliage seasons. The cabin comes equipped with natural gas for the stove and master bedroom stone fireplace. The cabin is nestled in 4.2 wooded acres of seclusion and privacy. The summer temps rarely reach into the 80's, the fall views are spectacular, the winter low foliage views seem infinite and the springtime air is so refreshing.

Excellent!
Great communication and fantastic cabin!
Adam,
I hope you can return and spend more time in this area. There is plenty to do in all seasons, but maybe you can return during a warmer season so you can fully enjoy the outdoors and all the amenities of the Resort. Please consider staying in my cabin when you return.
Bryan

Great Experience!
I stayed here with my wife's family (6 Adults total) and our 2.5 yr old daughter and we had a great time. Plenty to do here at the cabin with nearby hiking. Best day was went we went snow tubing (fake snow) which is less than 2 miles away. Great time and highly recommended!
We love to see 5-stars !! Thank you for taking time to post a review. We hope you will tell your friends and family about our CABIN.

An absolutely beautiful cabin in the most peaceful setting imaginable!
In my quest to find a cabin to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary, I found this beautiful cabin in the most peaceful setting imaginable. In 1994 (25 years ago), my husband and I spent our honeymoon at a bed & breakfast in the same general area. The bed & breakfast still exists, however, it no longer opens in the winter months. When I found this VRBO cabin, I thought it would be the perfect place to celebrate our 25th anniversary, as it in near our honeymoon destination from 25 years ago. This cabin is so beautiful. The bear decor is precious, the view is breathtaking, and the location is secluded, yet convenient to nearby destinations. The morning sunrise coming across the mountains as you soak in the view from the back deck is absolutely stunning. The highlight of our stay was our short commute to view Whitewater Falls. We captured a photo of us together in the same location where we stood in 1994. Our revisit to the falls, and the opportunity to take a photo in the same place in 2019 created a lifelong memory. We look forward to returning to this cabin in the near future. It is well appointed, spacious, comfortable, very clean, and a picture of serenity. The Bible verse (Psalm 46:10) captivates our feeling during the stay..... "Be Still and Know" This cabin allows one to pause, rest, and reflect in the beauty of nature, knowing that He provides our every need.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY !!! We are so happy to read this review. We appreciate your kind words. We hope you will come stay again for your 26th Anniversary and anytime you like. Thank you and Happy New Year !!!

Our mountain property presents all the best North Carolina and the Blue Ridge Mountains can offer. Each lot takes advantage of its mountain features, be it bold streams, cascading falls, grand mountain views or the simple beauty of a Blue Ridge mountain wilderness.

Bald Rock shares amenities including an equestrian center with acres of lush pastureland, stables and miles of hiking, biking and riding trails which offer access to multiple waterfalls and a rare highland bog.
Our community features a covered pavilion for family occasions and community celebrations. This spacious, open-air, rustic facility is flanked by two fireplaces and includes a full-service kitchen.
Adjacent to The Divide lays the magnificent Panthertown Valley. Owned by the U.S. Forest Service, this remarkable 6,700-acre preserve nicknamed the "Yosemite of the East" must be experienced to be appreciated. Meandering streams and intricate waterfall systems make Panthertown Valley a haven for horseback riders, hikers, riders, and nature lovers, with access directly from the property.
GOLF
The mountain area offers exceptional opportunities for the golf enthusiast with
approximately 14 golf courses. Most courses are designed by
world-renowned course designers.
Highlands Country Club course was designed by Donald Ross.
Cullasaja Club course was designed by Arnold Palmer.
Wade Hampton Golf Club course was designed by Tom Fazio.
Mountain Top Golf & Lake Club designed by Tom Fazio.
Sapphire National Golf Club designed by Ron Garl.
The Country Club of Sapphire Valley designed by George C. Cobbs.
WATER RECREATION
The area is home to an endless supply of lakes and rivers. Lake Glenville is known
for being the highest man-made lake on the east coast at an elevation of 3,492 feet. Having more than a dozen species of fish, it offers plenty to challenge the skill of fishermen. It is perfect for boating and has some of the most coveted shoreline in
North Carolina.
In front of glorious Bald Rock Mountain sits 55-acre Fairfield Lake. Experience the
entire lake along its surrounding hiking trail. There is a sandy beach for sunning and
swimming, two docks, a boathouse and a boat rental with good fishing.
Whitewater rafting will oblige the brave of heart. With this exhilarating sport, as well
as for kayaking, the Nantahala River is known to be one of the best in the Blue Ridge
Mountain area. For the more sedate water activist, the passive French Broad River is
a wonderful alternative.
