Ready for some R&R;? Lay yourself back in the sofa recliner or sit out on the deck and take in the fresh mountain air.

"There are things I prize and hold of dearest worth:

Light of the Sapphire skies, Peace of the silent hills, Shelter of the forests,

Shadows of cloud that swiftly pass after showers,

The Smell of flowers, And of the good brown earth".

Poem written by Henry Van Dyke.

The cabin was very clean, had a great view, and was very comfortable. Although we didn't use it, the kitchen was very nice.

Weekend getaway

Loved the property. It was so peaceful with a creek and ponds to sit by. The cabin was just as described. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

Great!

This is a great 2 bed cabin. Beautiful views, good places for walks with open spaces for our 2 big dogs. Close to Tellico Plains and all the things to do around that community. Cherohala Skyway, museums, shopping and hiking. We will be back!

Super Getaway for Couple!

Saphire bear is the perfect getaway for a couple! Cabin was stocked, including extra towels, and was super clean! The bed wasn’t that comfy and the shower is smaller than standard, but the location made it worth it! We visited at the time of year where the ladybugs were trying to get inside so we could not enjoy the back porch, but that’s nature! My husband and I had an excellent getaway!

Stunning views close to the Skyway

We enjoyed watching the fall leaves become vibrant. There are lots of games, hiking and fishing right on the property which my grandchildren enjoyed. Ventured out to Knoxville, Seeetwater, Vonore, Gatlinburg, Cherokee Casino and the stunning Cherahola Skyway. Can’t wait to return to the peaceful nights at Diamond or Saphire Bear.

It was a little confusing about the check in process. You need to read the email completely. Otherwise, it was perfect! We enjoyed our stay!It is a little off the grid so be prepared to drive to get to the cabin. Once there, it’s amazing!

Loved the cabin and country setting. The cabin was very nice, beautiful views in a remote, quiet location. Although, we had internet service, there was no phone service at the cabin and within a couple miles from it. Other things to note - only one bed was made when we arrived, the other was not made and had a ball of damp bedding laying on it. We would recommend letting guests know how to use the shower. The fixture required pulling the shower lever out to get water to come out. Not something everyone would know. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay!!

It sounds like you had a lovely stay in a beautiful cabin in a remote and quiet country setting. Thank you for sharing your experience. Regarding the bedding and shower fixture, it's great feedback, and it's something that the property management can address to ensure a more seamless experience for future guests. The lack of phone service can be common in remote areas, but it's good to know that you had internet access. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay overall, and We hope you have the opportunity to return for another peaceful getaway. If you have any more comments or questions, feel free to reach out.
