The house is in a beautiful neighborhood with close access to a pretty river and neighborhood access to some waterfalls on other sections of the river. It was very convenient to Cashiers and beautiful hikes in the area. The home is very comfortable and was immaculate. A great stay in a great place.

We enjoyed our visit. Small fenced back yard was very nice for our pups without worrying about them running off or wildlife getting up to house. House was really clean and well equipped. Very nice area and fairly close to grocery store. Trails over by the lake associated with the subdivision were very nice around the lake.

We had a great spring break stay with 4 adults, 2 children and 4 dogs. We explored sapphire, cashiers and highlands, waterfalls, lakes and hiking. We enjoyed the walkable Narrows waterfall and even closer creek. The house was comfortable and plenty of space for all of us.

We had a WONDERFUL family vacation at this Beautiful mountain house. The house is just beautiful, clean, comfortable beds, with a well stocked kitchen for cooking meals. Relax at the firepit, the river or go for a hike to a waterfall in the neighborhood. It’s a wonderful relaxing vacation home. We stayed for a week and hope to come back next year!

Great vacation place!

This property met and/or exceeded all our expectations! From hiking to the nearby waterfall and immediate neighborhood to enjoying the Sapphire Valley Resort amenities, we had a wonderful time. The house was well equipped and the fenced in backyard was great for our dog. We loved being outside on the spacious deck and the river behind was so peaceful. We are already planning our return!

Beauty of the river

This house has everything you could possibly look for and need for an extended stay. It was beautiful inside and outside. The sounds of the river from the outdoor area is soothing. The walk down to the river is a little hike but worth it. The owner is quick to respond and friendly. We will be back

Wonderful place to stay near waterfalls with sound of a brook on back porch!

The home was lovely, definitely had a cozy cabin feel with the wood floors, ceiling, and gas fireplace. Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to cook. Bed was comfortable. The tub in the master bathroom was deep enough to take a bath. Loved the sound of the brook on the back porch! Lots of beautiful waterfalls within a short distance!

Beautiful location and home!

This is a lovely home with all the amenities and a fenced area in the back for our 2 goldens. The river runs behind the home and creates a soothing sound that you can hear from the large deck and the fire ring area. The house is on a quiet cul de sac and its dark enough at night to see a large number of stars. We used the downstairs Master with the HUGE master bath and king sized bed but there are 2 additional large bedrooms and a nice sized bathroom upstairs, as well, so there's lots of room for family. We would definitely love to come back!

Great Getaway

My wife, two dogs, and me live in Florida. The house was a perfect getaway from the summer heat. Close location to Sapphire National Golf Club, only public course in the area.... The outdoor firepit was great. Go to the nursery in Highlands for wood. Ingles grocery was right up the street to take advantage of some outdoor grilling in the cool mountain weather. The fenced back yard for the two dogs was fantastic! Great waterfall hikes within a short drive. The 1.5 hour horse back ride through the mountains was terrific too. We will 100% be back.
