Other things to note
Local Infrastructure is not the same as it is metropolitan neighborhoods. While properties do have WIFI, the connection speeds are slower and cannot handle streaming on multiple devices simultaneously. We encourage our guests to take full advantage of the mountains and get out to explore and enjoy! A stronger Wifi is available at the Community and Recreation Center within walking distance.

The location was within walking distance of most of the amenities. It is perfect for 1-2 people. Everything was clean and well appointed. We wish we had been there during a dryer time period. If you are a golfer call Sapphire National to see if it is open.

Cozy Corner

Cozy studio unit with many creature comforts supplied. We were able to make our breakfast and dinner in the well stocked kitchen. Enough blankets to warm up after a full day of skiing. Our tween boys were happy at the community rec center with ping pong and heated pool.

About the host

Hosted by M

Host profile image
23 years in Sapphire Valley Resort area, we feel gratitude every day for this beautiful place in the world!

Why they chose this property

When we first started coming to this area, we bought a condo in this great little community as a weekend retreat in heart of the resort and enjoyed all the amenities had to offer within walking distance. After we moved up to Sapphire Valley full time we wanted to share the experience of this beautiful place to others and have been hosting guests ever since.

What makes this property unique

The location is amazing! 3 miles from Cashiers with free concerts all summer long. A short drive to Highlands a shopping, dining and arts community. Lake Fairfield and Glenville are beautiful featuring waterfalls in both! Our unit has lovely antiques with comfy furniture and a bread making table from the 1800's.
