Serene Lakefront Cabin with Dock/Kayaks/Canoe & Fire Pit!!

Beautiful remodeled mountain, lakefront home in Sapphire, NC. Includes amenities to Sapphire Valley Resort and location near 100s of miles of hiking trails. Cahsiers/Sapphire are is home to many beautiful waterfalls and all the great destinations of the western North Carolina mountains.

Wonderful lake-view, lower deck and fire pit, see photos!

*Recently upgraded high-speed internet! We got rid of the slow satellite link system and upgraded to recently offered fiber-optic based system that is true high-speed and a HUGE improvement!

Quiet, serene location... no motorized boat traffic on the lake and although minutes to Hwy 64, absolutely no road traffic noise can be heard. Just the birds, frogs and crickets :)

For information on the Sapphire Valley Amenities, please visit https://sapphirevalleyresorts.com/amenities/

Mountain lake view from your dining table and all bedrooms, go kayaking, canoeing and fishing from your dock. Many renowned, mountain golf courses nearby and guest access to Sapphire Valley Master Association activities. Of course Sapphire/Cashiers area is waterfall paradise, with multiple beautiful falls nearby to enjoy after short to medium hike.

The cabin has 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and now also a sofa bed available in loft/office area.

The property was what we expected and as promoted, clean and in good order. Check-in was seamless, and the kitchen, WiFi, etc., worked well. With the inclement weather most of our stay, we did not use the fire pit.

NC Getaway

The house was a great layout. Good sized rooms and a newer kitchen. The dock and kayaks were nice. We enjoyed the lake and view of it from the house. The only issue was the bed in the master squeaked anytime you moved. Probably needs to be replaced. Great trip!

Relaxing and enjoyable family vacation

Our family trip to Sapphire was full of adventure to waterfalls, kayaking, great restaurants, and relaxing at the nearby resort’s indoor pool/ hot tub. The house is on a lake that does not allow loud boats so the kayaking was smooth. One of the bedrooms had a private balcony and my adult daughters appreciated the other bedrooms with a full bath for each person. The owners were very communicative and helped make the vacation perfect!

Cozy getaway

We had a small family get together and had a great time. The home was in a beautiful location on a quiet lake and was perfect for our group. It was clean and well kept, and was close by to lots of outdoor activities as well as restaurants and pubs. We enjoyed the fire pit and kayaks as well. Would definitely stay again

Beautiful home, set up very nicely!Everything you need and very clean.Drip coffee pot.Peaceful view of lake.Screened patio for coffee in morning.My family enjoyed the canoe and kayaks.Perfect place to get out on the water!Made some s’mores at the fire pit.We hiked the rainbow and turtle back falls, Whiteside mountain.Both hikes a bit more strenuous than we are use to but so worth it.Enjoyed Cashiers Farmers market. El Manzanillo has terrific Mexican food, super friendly staff.Sat on the patio at Micas enjoyed a nice early dinner.The Pizza is delicious.The house is in a great location for day trips to so many places.We had a superb meal at The Blind Mule in Brevard!I will say there are a lot of steps, would not recommend for elderly/handicapped.Thanks for the great memories.

We were fortunate to be able to visit this beautiful property for two weeks. The cabin easily accommodated five adults and two small children.
