    The house had great activities for our family. The game room was great (though we could never get the VR headset to work). We loved the ping pong table! There were some maintenance items that needed addressing, which were brought to the attention of the owners. Also, the house could probably use a good deep clean, and address the maintenance issues that were brought up. We gave the owners some ideas on how to really allow guests to arrive and feel relaxed vs having to run out to get basics (paper towels, hand soap, etc). Could use a refresh on clean, stain free towels in the primary bathroom as well as the bedding in the primary.

    What a phenomenal house! Everything was well kept, clean, and exactly as presented on VRBO. The back yard area was so much fun. We walked in the creeks, saw deer crossing in the early evening, and roasted marshmallows in the fire pit! The hosts were easily reached with the random questions I threw at them.We plan on returning next year!

    We had the best time at Crystal Creek Arcade House. The hosts had everything we needed and more-and communication from them was great! The stream outside the house was so relaxing to listen to and we spent a lot of time sitting outside in the beautiful nature that surrounded the house. Location was central and easy to get to restaurants and grocery store. We can’t wait to go back! Thank you again for a wonderful and relaxing vacation!

    We had a wonderful stay at the Arcade home! The home was as described. We so appreciated the supplies that were included. The home was clean and beautifully decorated! The ping pong table was a big hit! We enjoyed working with the owners and property manager. We love visiting Cashiers, and can’t wait to come back! Thanks for a great weekend away!

    We couldn’t have found a better place to stay for a quick family getaway. From the game room to the awesome backyard , there were plenty of things to keep our young kids entertained. Great location too. There are a ton of trails with awesome waterfall views close by. Host were awesome and answered any questions in a timely manner. Would definitely book again.

    The property was great and more than fine for our family. We had a lot of fun, but what made the experience so awesome was the host. I had lost my wallet in the house somewhere and they went above and beyond to try and find it. Even going over to the house themselves to search. Highly recommend property.

    We spent our family Christmas here and it rained the whole time but we didn't have a boring moment. The arcade room and ping pong table is great! The boy's loved playing Golden Tee. The house was clean with plenty of comfortable seating in multiple rooms. Bed's were great too, not to mention the huge shower in the master bedroom. It was fully stocked with paper towels, detergent, and toilet paper. We will definitely be back so we can enjoy the beautiful stream running through the property and the awesome back decks. What a view! Thank you for a great time!

    We recently stayed at Crystal Creek for 5 days and it was so peaceful and relaxing! The home was clean and set up perfectly for just us or a larger family. Everything we needed was provided. Communication with Elise was excellent and helpful. The property is gorgeous! We enjoyed sitting on the back porch drinking coffee listening to the creek every morning and sitting by the fire for hours. We honestly didn't venture out into town much because it was so relaxing for us at the house, which was the whole purpose of our trip - to RELAX! We're already talking about when we could go back with our children and grandchildren! Ingles is a short drive away to grab whatever you may need. We had a wonderful time - don't hesitate to make your reservation!

    We had an amazing time in Sapphire at this house. It is close to some beautiful waterfalls, Cashiers, Highlands and the Sapphire Valley Resort where we fished, swam, and took our dog to the dog park. The hosts were amazing and very responsive. I highly recommend this place.
