Great place in Sapphire!

John from the beginning was great to work with, making sure everything was going well. The condo has a great view of the lake and we enjoyed the trail around it almost every day. My teens enjoyed the extras that Sapphire Valley Resort had to offer with the pool, fitness center, golf and zip line. The condo is comfy and is filled all the extras you look for to call it home for a week.

Best Place to Stay

What can I say, this is a Gorgeous and Relaxing place to stay. The owner is also the best, the was some issue on the AC when we get there but he did his best to resolve it and also to compensate he had paid for my family’s dinner on one of the great bbq place in town. The area is beautiful, peaceful and serene. One of the best vacation we had specially it’s near a lake and a lot of place to hike.

We spent 5 days at John’s lovely townhome and had a great time. The view of the lake was spectacular and all the interior and exterior spaces were very comfortable. We were also not far away from loads of waterfalls. hikes and other outdoor activities. I definitely recommend the place.

good location if traveling with younger kids

it is very nice being so close to the resort if you have younger kids - for $2/day you can use the resort pool (both indoor and outdoor pools) and there is a small playground there as well. In addition you can walk from the house to a small lake beach area that has paddle boats, kayaks and paddle boards for rent

Well furnished, well supplied property and a very pleasant owner

3 Emerald Cove is a delightful place, and I would highly recommend it for families. It’s well designed, with plenty of spaces to be in a group or to find a little solitude. The few problems we noted were not insurmountable, and we look forward to visiting again ourselves. Owner John Ryan is very pleasant and helpful — his knowledge of the area and his suggestions for activities helped make our visit even more enjoyable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 day stay. Owner was easy to work with. The house had everything you needed. Quiet , easy access to community center, the lake. We would definitely revisit again. Great place for reunions. Lots of lake activities. Community center had outdoor and indoor pool. 8 clay tennis courts. Close to restaurants

Lovely and relaxing

With 6 adults, 2 kids and a baby we had a perfect fit in this beautiful home. Everything was there and stocked up. We were able to truly relax! The view from the deck was so beautiful, especially in the morning. There was also a really cute beach on the lake with boats and things to rent as well as ice cream. This was a short walk from the house, down on the trail. We also really loved the cooler temperatures!

Thumbs Up

I write this review with reservation. Because I want it available each time I want to visit Sapphire valley. John, the owner, wants everything convenient for the renter. He is very responding to any needs or issues. The property has great lake views and is very convenient to restaurants and shopping. We stayed there with two other couples and used it as our base camp for hiking around the area. We will be back!

This lake house is outstanding; we hated to leave!

The lake house is a mountain dream! Each bedroom is actually a private suite, complete with full bath, large walk in closet and spacious vanity. The view of the lake is astounding! Every room has a magnificent view and the large deck adjacent to the living, dining and kitchen adds significantly to the wonderful experience. The owner takes extra care to provide most of the needed supplies, linen, towels, soap and other necessary items. He also checked on us to "see if we needed anything", this was an unexpected and delightful touch! They also provide a library of local history, telescopes and outdoor furniture. If you like the fresh mountain air, life at a quiet, pristine lake, hiking, birding or just relaxing in a beautiful environment, this is the place for you!.

Relaxed Luxury in the Mountains

My group and I had a great stay at this well appointed townhome! The decor was modern and everything was clean and spacious. We also really enjoyed the big wraparound balcony and view of the lake. The location was perfect -- about a 5-7 minute drive from the Cashiers town center but you feel like you are in the middle of the forest. It is also about 5 minutes from the grocery. The owners have a lot of birding equipment and bird feeders available if you are into that. A tip- There is a nice walking path that goes around the lake about a 1 minute walk from the townhome. The walk takes around an hour and I highly recommend it. Will definitely be returning!
