One of the cleanest homes that we have ever rented! Very well stocked, both with linens and in the kitchen. Our extended family of 9 thoroughly enjoyed spending Thanksgiving in the mountains. The house had plenty of room for gathering together or spacing out for a little quiet time. Plenty of games and puzzles to keep everyone occupied.

Sapphire experience

It is a wonderful, spacious, generously equipped house, including a jacuzzi, a pingpong table and a pool billard. We enjoyed the house.The only problem were the beds that had poor quality.

great place to stay

The pool is about a mile away and was closed except for one day of our stay! Lots of trails and waterfalls around! We ate at Haps in Glenville, good place for kids and we went to Whitehouse brewery with outdoor area for kids. The house had plenty of room, kids enjoyed the bunkbed rooms! Overall, a great place to stay with plenty of room and plenty to do! Our host was easy to talk with and helpful!

Mountain Retreat

We love the Sapphire area and were anxious to return! This house is located in a perfect spot! Close to Fairfield Lake, the Recreation Center, restaurants, waterfalls and hikes! This property is comfortable, cozy and spacious. We enjoyed quiet evenings out by the fire pit and soaking in the hot tub! It did not disappoint.

Annual Christmas Tree Trip

We had a great time in Sapphire Valley. We had a group of 9 ranging in age from 5 years old to 85 years old. We go up the weekend before Christmas each year to get our Christmas trees at Bear Valley. The house was a great place to play family games, enjoy the hot tub, and relax. We even had a great surprise on Friday morning - SNOW! What a memorable trip!!

Relaxing retreat

What a great property! Lots of space for family to break off for games downstairs and a quiet puzzle upstairs. Didn’t try the hot tub but it looked great. Older parents were very comfortable in primary suite, while kids were on the main and mom and dad in the basement. Easy to get to Sapphire and Cashiers restaurants and explore the waterfalls. Would highly recommend!

Sapphire Stay

This was a very cozy home. We booked for my wife’s 30th birthday and she absolutely loved the house and location. This home is close to everything and very easy to get to. The home even entertained our 3 year old. There were plenty of toys and the size of the home kept him quite entertained. We could have easily entertained 2 more families with the size of this place. Two main fireplaces that kept us comfortable. Overall, we were very impressed. It was very clean. I normally have one complaint and it’s water pressure but this place had great water pressure! The beds were exceptionally comfortable as well! You won’t be let down by this place, go ahead and book it!

Beautiful home in the mountains

We enjoyed our stay in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We hiked every day, typically driving 20-60 minutes to get to different hikes. The home is situated on the mountains with a beautiful view, we did not have a 4WD but were not there in the snow, I would imagine you would want 4WD in the winter. The home was clean with comfortable beds and pillows and many supplies including towels, coffee, hot cocoa, soap and cleaning supplies if needed to name a few. The kitchen was well stocked for our cooking needs. There is a beautiful screened in porch which we didn't use much but I can imagine in the summer it would be lovely. The hot tub was a nice bonus. There was plenty of room to spread out both inside and outside. The kids played pool and there were other fun games we used. When we arrived the main floor toilet was not working properly, the plunger was broken off so to flush we needed to replace the plunger every time. This was ok for the adults but more challenging for the kids. We asked it be fixed but it was not fixed while we were there. I am sure they resolved the problem after we left. I would recommend staying at this beautiful home, the owners have but so many details into the beauty and comfort for their guests.

The place was great and location was good. They had everything they advertised. We had 3 children and did not realize this was a 3 story property with very steep staircases. They did supply baby gates so that was helpful but did make it so that they could not roam the house freely. Everything else was perfect.
