Absolutely wonderful house, my family of 9 so enjoyed our time here. The kids played Crockett, fished, roasted marshmallows, and the whole family really enjoyed the plethora of board games.

Amazing property!

My family and I had the best week at the bear’s den. The house was clean, spacious and perfect for a big group. The backyard has a grill and a smoker which was great for dinners on the patio. My favorite part was the outdoor firepit where we made s’mores and stargazed. 10/10 would recommend and can’t wait to go back!

Exactly as described. Beautiful home in a great location. Plenty of room for 4 adults and 6 kids. Loved the screened porch, fire place, river, park, hiking, apple picking and bear sighting. The host was easy to communicate with as well.

We had a wonderful stay, the house was beautiful and well taken care of, everything was clean and ready for us upon our arrival, it was very comfortable. It felt very secluded even being inside A golf country club. Being on the river gave the kids something fun to do, they caught fish every day.

Great Sapphire Property

This property has it all. Fireplaces, big bedrooms with private showers. Horsepasture River out back. Tons of decks and sitting options. Owner was very responsive. This is a great property for family vacation. Close to shops in Cashiers and local hikes. I highly recommend.

A Serene Retreat Amidst Nature's Fury

Our recent stay at the Cabin in Sapphire, NC, was an unforgettable experience, especially considering the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. Despite the challenges posed by road closures and power outages, the property manager's unwavering communication and updates ensured a smooth and enjoyable trip. The cabin itself was a gem, surpassing our expectations in every way. The tranquil setting, with a small river flowing in the back, created a peaceful atmosphere that was truly rejuvenating. The sound of the water provided a soothing backdrop to our stay, and the property's amenities, including a well-equipped sound system and ample outdoor seating, made it perfect for relaxation and entertainment. The fire pit was a particular highlight, offering plenty of space for cozy gatherings and stargazing. Overall, our stay was nothing short of amazing, and our kids absolutely loved it. If you're seeking a serene getaway amidst nature's beauty, this cabin is highly recommended.
