About this property

Home is fully furnished, and beautifully landscaped.

Our cabin has a wilderness setting on 1.5 private acres. Beautiful back yard deck overlooks stream with waterfall. where you can often view wild trout. Open window or screen door and hear the sound of the waterfall throughout the home. Enjoy your morning cup of coffee on the covered deck out front overlooking a second waterfall. An enclosed Gazebo with swing also sits next to the pond.

The home is spacious with high ceilings. It has a large Master bedroom and two other bedrooms. A large living room, dining room and eat in kitchen with table and large island overlooking pond! All bed linens and towels provided. Fully equipped kitchen including dishes and cooking utensils. TV is setup with Roku streaming. A second Roku TV in the Master Bedroom.

The home borders Gorges park which has several streams and waterfalls within walking distance. Upper Whitewater Falls, the e highest waterfall east of the Rockies, is minutes away. The falls plunge an amazing 411 feet!This is an extremely desirable area in North Carolina, close to Cashiers & Highlands. Brevard is a 30-minute drive and Asheville is an hour and 15 minutes away. Area is famous for the many waterfalls in the surrounding regions. Great summer and winter recreation close by, including: hiking, fishing, horseback riding, white water rafting, tubing, etc.

Kick your shoes off and splash around in the crystal clear creek just steps from the living room.

This property can not be rented for more than 30 days during the High Season Months (April, May , June , September & October)

We do not have access to the Sapphire Lodge .

If you see a large black snake, that is "Poopyconder" ( named by one of our grandkids) Please do not kill him. He is a rat snake and helps us keep the rodent problem under control. He will not bother you.

Serenity at its Best!

We had a wonderful time here. Terri was very attentive and wanted to be sure we had everything we needed. There are parks and waterfalls within a short drive from the property. To the west is the quaint town of Cashiers and to the east is Brevard, both are perfect to visit, shop, and dine. Ashville is just over an hour drive and is a great place to spend the day. The property itself is a quiet and serene oasis with all the amenities of home. Our daughter had a small intimate wedding here, as well! We've stayed here numerous times over the years and will continue coming back again and again!

Great little getaway

We had a great time at Terri’s place. It was exactly as listed and the perfect little getaway for us. Not a ton to do in the area, but fishing and creek swimming on property was perfect.

Peaceful getaway, close to waterfalls

We really enjoyed our short getaway here. The cabin is spacious with porches on front and back. Boys caught and released a few small trout from the stream, short hike to Bearwallow falls and nextdoor at Gorges State Park, the 1.5 mile hike to Rainbow Falls was well worth it. Loved the place and area, great trip!

A Peaceful Getaway

We had the best time at this perfectly equipped, peaceful cabin. The location was great, easy to find and felt like a tucked away little paradise. The cabin had everything we could possibly need to cook all our meals and enjoy the whole weekend. Groceries are less than 20 mins away which was nice in case we forgot something. The little corner store down the street had lots of useful items as well. There were hikes nearby, Gorges State park is just a few miles down the road. The pond and creek in the back and front of the house were lovely. We enjoyed coffee on the back porch while the kids ran around collecting pine cones. We will definitely be back!

Sapphire Valley outdoor retreat

This trip was planned to join up with old friends and go antiquing in the area. The location was perfect for what we planned. We enjoyed nearby Cashiers, Highlands, Brevard, and Hendersonville and spent most of two days away shopping. The home was well equipped and comfortable.

Amazing property

I have never stayed in a house that is so well equipped. Everything we could possibly need was provided down to a garlic press. The location is ideal with a stream on one side and a pond and waterfall on the other making it quiet and restful. Both the TV and WiFi worked perfectly. Overall a great stay.
