Spotless and new, convenient to everything.

Wonderful property -- new, clean, and quiet. Very nicely appointed; the hosts provided the essentials. The location is excellent, very close to Gorges State Park and other great hiking. Groceries and restaurants are conveniently close...but far enough that you are not in the middle of traffic from town.

Convenient

I would stay there again. The place was well appointed and very convenient. The bed was super comfortable too. The only thing that was missing was an iron and probably not many people need one. The bathroom shower drained slowly and I informed the liaison. It is a little loud through the wall. You could hear the other person staying in the attached condo banging around in their place.

We stayed 2 weeks at this lovely condo and had a wonderful vacation. The condo is in River Run at Sapphire Valley Resort and we were able to walk to three different restaurants on the property, all different , wonderful food and one is fine dining. The Library, was our favorite. We had 4 dinners there and all were fabulous. The servers at all of the restaurants were super friendly . The Red Bird 9 hole golf course was perfect for practice on your short game. The cost to play was unbelievable, 65.00 a week with a cart! We went to Cashiers almost daily,and you must eat at Corncopia! The Highlands has great restaurants and shopping. Walking around Fairfield lake was a favorite thing to do,seeing so many waterfalls, having lunch at the Greystone Inn on the lake.

The stay was good and bad. There was pet hair from other previous people’s stay all over the bedspread and blankets. There was also a musty and moldy smell in the kitchen near the stove and bottom cabinets. And finally, there were ants on the kitchen counter every day or so, even though there were no food products left on the counter or in sink. It’s a shame, because the location and setup were perfect. The bed was ultra comfortable as well. I’d like to return there next summer, but these issues definitely made the stay problematic.

Studio Review

Very nice place. I would suggest more attention to detail before a guest arrives. The WIFI password didn't work. The TV didn't work. The cabinet under the sink was broken. We tried to follow the rules but had to ask for the garbage password and there was no detergent to wash the sheets. If we were supposed to bring our own, that should have been communicated.

Perfect for our family of 4

This was such a fantastic place for our family to enjoy some fun on the slopes/tubing! It was quite cozy and offered just enough room for 2 adults and 2 kids. Close proximity to SV Resort and fantastic restaurants. It was furnished with all of the essentials & we can't wait to go back soon!

Perfect location

We are buying a property in the neighborhood and came up for a quick weekend to see the property. The location is perfect with quick access to sapphire and cashiers. The studio was a perfect size for my fiancé and I. Loved the place and will be staying here again when we come up to see the property.
