Sapphire, North Carolina
Location, location, location!!! This spacious mountain retreat is in the BEST location in the Sapphire & Cashiers area; a short 5 minute walk to the resort along the “River Walk” path that starts just behind the home, but tucked just far enough away on the Horsepasture River to enjoy the serenity of the sounds of the river from the deck or the Adirondack chairs around the fire pit. Kids 14 and older can visit the resort on their own by by foot or bike.
FEATURES: The home offers 2 king primary bedrooms, a full bedroom (all three with in suite bathrooms) and a large bunk bed room (sleeps 3). The large, open floor plan home has a well stocked kitchen, back deck with comfy seating and dining areas and a Weber gas grill, and a large formal dining area with plenty of room for all guests.

LOCATION: Less than 3 miles from the Cashiers crossroads where there are festivals galore, great restaurants, and shops. About 11 miles to the Gorges State Park home of Turtleback Falls and Rainbow Falls. Less than a mile to Fairfield Lake (you’ll have private lake access while visiting this home) with boat rentals and swimming beach and 7 miles to Lake Glenville. The home is in an easy in and out location just off Highway 64 that is 2.5 miles from the “Crossroads” (downtown Cashiers) and less than 1 mile to the Sapphire Valley resort entrance.
COMFORT: While some rentals skimp on the bedding, we SPLURGED! Tempurpedic king, new high quality 2nd King and full bedroom mattresses. Even the bunk-bed room has the same high quality mattresses we have at our primary home.
Kitchen is well stocked with quality pots and pans, plenty of plates and bowls for all, blender, cappuccino machine, coffee maker (filters provided), Keurig, kettle, built-in microwave, crock pot, blender, and toaster oven. Plenty of cooking and prep tools as well and a Weber gas grill on the back deck.

We spent a few days in Sapphire Valley and loved every minute of our time at the cabin and the ski area. Perfect spot and great for families. Highly recommend!
Great townhome, minutes from the heart of Cashiers! Beautiful views and fun hiking super closeby! We came for a friend's wedding and the fall foliage did not disappoint!! We stayed so busy hiking, we didn't take advantage of all the amenities, but loved exploring the area!
So convenient to everything in Western NC! The home was perfect for our family of 6 plus 2 friends! The creek is so beautiful! Great communication with host. Felt like home away from home!
What an amazing place! It is right on the river with easy access to amenities like swimming, arcade, playground, and beach. Caroline was a very responsive host and the home was wonderful. The kitchen was well stocked with all items needed and the outdoor deck was wonderful to sit out on. Great place for families!
Wonderful accommodations - everything we needed. Great communication with the owner. We would love to stay there again!
My family loves this rental. It is comfortable, convenient to local attractions, and close to resort amenities. The kids loved playing in the creek and toasting smores around the firepit. I enjoyed listening to the birds and the water in the morning while I sat on the deck with a cup of hot coffee. The furnishings are comfortable, and there are plenty of linens for a large family. Beautiful waterfalls nearby and fun trails for those who want to hike. I love this area and this rental. No problems whatsoever.
We stayed here with a group of ladies on a pickleball trip. Everything was clean and more updated than expected. Super comfortable for us and spacious. The owner was also very responsive. We will stay here again, as it’s close to the other group.
We had a great time staying here for spring break! The townhouse is very spacious with plenty of room for our 4 adults and 2 kids. The kids loved the bunk beds and called it the bunk bed house ? Location was great and Caroline was a very responsive host. We had a few questions during our stay and she responded very quickly. Oh the kids loved playing in the river in the back! Would definitely book again.
So many great things about this location. It’s close to restaurants, the ski slope and beautiful Riverwalk. You’re in the heart of everything but with plenty of quiet, private surroundings. This condo is decorated beautifully with quality and comfortable amenities. We have been here two years in a row and look forward to going back next year!!
The home we stayed in was wonderful and was a great location. We will book again in this same home.
Everything about this property was excellent! Fully stocked kitchen, very clean, comfy beds, plenty of space for 9 of us, great location… the list goes on and on! We had a wonderful time and would recommend this place to anyone looking to visit Cashiers!
We had a great time staying here. It is such a good location and everything was clean and nice. We would love to come back again sometime!
Thank you! Perfect for our group.
Everything we needed for a long rainy weekend we had at this property. Will definitely come again.
Great stay, perfect for family.
This place had everything we wanted! There is a small creek in the back, so the kiddos we able to splash and play everyday! It is just a short hike to the resort pool, which kept us active. The kitchen had everything we needed. We even had a fire and roasted marshmallows one night. The grocery store is only a 4 minute drive away in case you forget anything. My bed was comfy and water pressure was fine. We will definitely stay here again!
