Diamond Ridge: Modern Luxury, Ultimate Long-Range Mountain Views

Such a lovely little get away! We had so much fun in Sapphire. The place has a beautiful view that the pictures cannot do justice. It's clean and spacious, perfect for spending the night in and cooking after hiking the nearby trails.If you're reading this review and looking to stay here and use the ammenties, just be aware that you will need to request passes at least 72 hours ahead of time. You need to message the host with the number of passes requested and the names ages of each person. I missed this when I booked and I almost didn't get them! With or without the resort amenities, this place is awesome. Hopefully we can book again!

Beautiful home with an incredible view of mountains and valley. We were there for Thanksgiving, and really appreciated the well appointed kitchen that had absolutely every appliance necessary for cooking any dish. House was super clean and prepared for us, and the beds were all very comfortable! The indoor gas fireplace was turned on with a touch of a remote, and the outside wood burning fireplace was stocked and cozy on chilly nights. An Ingles supermarket is close by, and downtown Highlands is a short drive away. Our host was very responsive and had a wonderful booklet with recommendations for places to eat, hiking trails, and places to see. We will definitely be back to this wonderful and breathtaking home!

Beautiful home. Very clean and incredibly comfortable. Kitchen and bathrooms were stocked with more than we could possibly need. Donna was wonderful with communication from start to finish.

One of the best rentals I have ever rented. The kitchen is fully stock. They have everything imaginable you would ever need. Beautiful Mountain View’s and you can’t beat the outdoors fireplace.

This was a beautiful mountain home with a fantastic view. Donna the owner was excellent to deal with and always responded to our questions. Very satisfied overall.

Mountain Paradise!We had the most incredible stay at Diamond Ridge - the views are absolutely breathtaking and the photos truly don't do them justice! The house was spotless, perfectly appointed with everything we needed, and Donna was an amazing host who made sure every detail was perfect. We spent every morning and evening on the deck soaking in those stunning mountain vistas and already can't wait to return!

From the moment we rolled into the driveway, we knew we were in for something special. The garden greeted us with blooming hydrangeas like it was straight out of a magazine. And stepping inside? Wow. The house was spotless—like, “you-could-eat-off-the-floors” clean. Honestly, the photos don’t even come close to capturing how gorgeous this place is in person.But the real showstopper? The view. Slide open those doors and BAM—mountains for days. And guess what? There are two porches! Our kids claimed the lower one as their hangout zone, while we soaked in the scenery (and some wine) from the upper deck. Pure bliss.Now let’s talk about Donna, the host with the most. She was super responsive and kind, chatting with us through the VRBO app and making sure we had everything we needed. She even left us a welcome basket with s’mores—how sweet is that?Bottom line: Diamond Ridge is a gem, and Donna knows how to make guests feel right at home. We’re already dreaming about our next visit!

If you are searching for the quintessential mountain getaway, look no further. The views from this home are unparalleled. We even got to watch the fireworks from the back porch. The home is about a 12-min drive to the Sapphire amenity center and 17 min to Cashiers without traffic.Donna, our host, was accommodating and responsive. The place was immaculate and sleeps 8 very comfortably. The area offers so much to do, including golf, hiking, pickle ball, swimming, and more. On rainy afternoons you can build a fire and snuggle up to your favorite book or board game. The kitchen is well stocked and the place comes with washer/dryer, fire pit, numerous tvs and good wifi. The house is equipped with smart devices (alexa, ring cameras) throughout.The first-floor master is perfect for individuals with mobility issues. My 80 yr old parents were able to navigate their stay easily, with minimal stairs into the house.

We enjoyed nine nights at this fabulous home. From communication to check in the ease of all was great. The home leaves nothing to be desired. We took walks up the mountain, enjoyed drinks on the deck both morning(coffee) and night to stare at the views, and played games and enjoyed the comfortable tv room. You won’t be disappointed staying here. It is way up the mountain on winding roads just FYI. We plan on returning when we can!!

Wonderful mountain home. Highly recommend

Property was beautifully decorated with ample room for 2 families of 4. The kitchen is equipped with everything we needed for cooking. We took advantage of the outdoor fireplace each night after chasing waterfalls during the day. The views are breathtaking which made it hard to leave. Donna was very responsive from the time of booking throughout our stay which we appreciate!

It is a great house: the craftsmanship, the layout, the details. We were very comfortable. We made a fire on the porch every evening and enjoyed the long-range views and shadows on the mountains. We took firewood, but appreciated that they also provided firewood. We did not take advantage of the fire pit, as it's too many steps down for our mobility, but it looks delightful and The Highlands Concierge left a cute setup of everything needed for s’mores (As well as a thoughtful mountain welcome gift.) The kitchen is well-appointed. The bed was comfy. We will eagerly return.

Fabulous house with gorgeous view! Well-stocked kitchen, spacious family gathering spaces & very comfortable beds are just a few of the things that made for an ideal holiday weekend with 4 generations of family! We highly recommend this property!!

Our family had a fantastic visit in NC! Communication with Donna was amazing and she was super helpful. The home is lovely and was perfect for our needs. The views are just stunning. We had a lovely time and would definitely go back again! Thank you~

The property was beautifully decorated, the kitchen was nicely appointed, the beds were comfortable, and we had the most gorgeous view of the mountains. The only drawback was the many air freshers in the home and the strong scent they left. And we had a little trouble getting in with our door code the first night, but this was quickly fixed, and we got a new code for the front door.
