Large, comfortable, well appointed house

Very large bed rooms and Great room. Beautiful stonework throughout. We were only 3 couples staying at the house, all over 70, so we had plenty of space and privacy when needed while still having plenty of room to get together.

Great location

The house was great and the owner was very responsive and nice. We would have liked a bit more of an open layout and we wished their was more room in the kitchen/sitting area next to it. But other than that the house was great.

Hi Sonia, Thank you for your review and for choosing our beautiful mountain getaway for your vacation! We are glad you enjoyed your stay. Most of our guests find that the space fits their needs perfectly. We’re sorry to hear the layout didn’t suit you as well as you would have hoped, and that it cost us a star in your review; all I can say is, you should have seen the house before we completely gutted and renovated it in 2007! Hopefully it did not pose too much of an inconvenience for you, and that the pictures were clear and detailed as to how each room was laid out. Regardless, we’re glad you chose our home and would love to host you again in the future! Warmly, Liz

Great mountain

Huge property - way up in mountains and woods. Winding road up to property a little difficult to navigate with large van we had. Less then 10 min to Sapphire National golf course. 15 min into Cashiers. House had a lot of rooms & spaces downstairs & up. Very clean. Kitchen well stocked. Quiet at night.

Wonderful Escape

We had a delightful 3-day family getaway weekend at this property. The house is spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated. As pictured, the upstairs has a open sitting area with a great view of the outdoors. The kitchen is modern and fully equipped. Downstairs offers a pool table, a table for games or puzzles, a reading spot, and another kitchen area! The property owner, Liz, could not have been nicer or more responsive to all my questions. She genuinely wants her guests to have a nice stay. (Thanks, Liz!) One could have a great time just staying at the house, but Sapphire is a great place to visit. If interested, the owners will arrange for you to get a pass to the Sapphire Valley Resort. (You just have to pay the resort a small fee of $2/day/person - 3 day minimum). The resort offers extra amenities including a nice little gym and access to Fairfail Lake which was great for paddle boarding along with other boating options. For eats, Table 64 was phenomenal right in town. You can also take a short drive to Cashiers for other options. Between the beauty of Sapphire, the elegance of the house, and the friendliness of the owner, this is a great place to stay and we would definitely stay here again!

Over-the-top Master Bedroom

This is a very large house with all the kitchen amenities anyone could ever want. We had 4 adult couples and an adult single in our party. The Over-the-top main Master Bedroom compared to the other bedrooms made for vastly different bedroom experiences for our group. The main master had a king bed, his and hers closets, and his and hers bathrooms, all in a rather large room. This bedroom was far superior to the others (King, Queen, Queen, and Twin), particularly the bedroom with the small twin beds. Also, 2 bedrooms had to share a bathroom, while the Main Master had 2 bathrooms. Everything else about the house is very nice including the large dining room, pool table, huge deck space, and very large great room. The area is very quiet, except for the bear who visited after a cookout using the outdoor grill. All in all, a very nice vacation experience in spite of the disparity in bedrooms.

Outstanding Location and Home for a Large Family Reunion

2 story with beautiful view of the woods in Sapphire. Very quite. All the amenities you need plus pool table. Comfortable beds and pillows. Large outdoor patio with enough seating for 10. Nice size kitchen for cooking for 12. All in all we had a blast at this lovely mountain escape. Highly recommended!

Sumner fun

The house is spacious and allow us to spread out. There are plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to easily accommodate our 8 adults and 2 children. The deck was good for early morning coffee. The downstairs great room was perfect for family gathering and board games. The area is close enough to Cashiers and a Ingles food store is nearby. The time of year was good with highs in the mid 70s

Great property (very minor issues)

Difficulty in getting to property as GPS systems were baffled several times. Hard to read directions on phones and navigate roads at the same time.. We still thought it was a great property and we had a great time. Top shelf and would come back. Communication rated low as we would have to create a vrbo account to contact you and we didn't want to do that

A Weekend In Paradise

We had an absolutely incredible time in this home. We found the property to be beautiful and well stocked with an incredible view of a lovely mountain stream that absolutely lulls you to sleep while relaxing on the front deck. We would recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a much needed rest reconnecting with family and friends!

New Years Eve

Overall very nice. Love the access to area offerings. Adequate bedrooms. The furniture arrangement for a large group seemed awkward. We had 10 people and rooms with TVs would not accommodate all of us. Loved the pool table and downstairs kitchen. Master bedroom was especially spacious. Would have liked a seating area in that room. Beautiful views and surroundings. Internet and phone service was virtually nonexistent.

Great place for family vacation!

This is a beautiful house with comfortable beds and luxury linens. The mountain views are spectacular!!!The house was very generously appointed and the kitchen had everything a cook could want--except a potato masher! The owner did an incredible job of answering our questions and giving us information about the house. We loved our stay here. However, the paved roads are curvy and steep getting to the house, not sure if we all could have made it if it had snowed! But it would have been beautiful!!! We had a visit one night by a black bear...very exciting!!! This was an amazing place to make Thanksgiving memories!! Thank you, Liz!
