CHARMING RUSTIC MODERN CLEAN PRIVATE RELAXING & FUN w/ Resort Package

Sapphire Place is the "gem" of all vacation rentals and is brand new on the vacation market with all of the extensive and fun-filled Sapphire activities and amenities. Tucked in the woods in the heart of Sapphire Valley, this secluded 2 large bedrooms/2.5 baths has undergone a recent and total upgrade featuring soaring, mountain-inspired pine planked ceilings, granite countertops, SS appliances, wood floors, new plush leather furniture, unique rustic mountain decor with a touch of eclectic modern features that you will love!! The new, fully stocked kitchen has everything you'll need for simple cooking or extreme dinner parties!! Wake up to singing birds in the spacious master bedroom with a king bed you'll melt into and private master bath, walk-in closet and double glass sliding door opening onto the rear deck. The living room features an entire wall of large windows from floor to ceiling for light, airy, sunny days in the cool mountain air. Turn on the fireplace with a press of a button to enjoy chilly summer nights or chillier winter days, while enjoying a movie from the stocked DVD library. Enjoy the back deck, nestled privately in the woods, under the large umbrella while enjoying an evening cocktail, or grilling on the BBQ. Secluded upstairs is another large bedroom with a scrumptiously comfy queen bed and private, large full bathroom. Bedrooms are plushly carpeted for extra comfort on those cold mornings, with large flat screen TV's and a deluxe channel line up. Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu in the living room with a supply of soft, warm afghans to cuddle in and watch your favorite show in front of a roaring fire. Warm, low-level ambient lighting automatically comes on at dark for extra inviting mood setting.

During the day, treat yourself to an astounding array of activities, either as a private guest of Sapphire Valley amenity package or off on your own explorations. The Sapphire amenity package features so many incredible activities for you to choose from.

I know all the secret, unknown, hidden places that you'll experience and will never forget!!

If you're interested in a Lake Glenville lakefront house (10 minutes from Cashiers), please see Moore Mountain Inn, Homeaway listing #4149368, on 5 secluded acres and 500 feet of shoreline and large private dock. If you're looking for a less expensive lake getaway, check out Mom's Place, Homeaway listing #162191, for a cute cabin with a world class lake view. If you're looking for something in-between, Caribou Cabin is it, with lake view lower pricing and walking access to the lake and private community dock, with boat dock privileges and kayaks.

Fantastic getaway!

My 2 daughters and I came up for their February break and had a fantastic time! We snow tubed, hiked to a waterfall, rode horses on a gorgeous trail, gem mined, and swam a ton at the indoor pool. Lisa was fantastic and shared great information about the area. The home was perfect for us, and we hope to come again.

Peaceful and relaxing

What a wonderful restful mountain hideaway. Perfect size for our family of three. Well stocked kitchen, cozy throws, and the most comfortable master bedroom bed! FYI - if you are planning to work or enjoy your favorite video content the wifi/internet is very weak and we had difficulty with it throughout our stay. Also there is no cable tv. Owner did a great job coming over and signing us into Peacock App so we could watch the Olympics.

Escaping the Summer Heat Dome!

What a great location in Sapphire Valley to listen to nothing but birds, summer bugs and sometimes a faraway banjo. So close to everything but removed enough to relax. The Host makes this place though- Lisa was sending a deluge of what, where and why you should check out restaurants, shops, water falls, lakes, hikes, water sports- the ultimate outdoors concierge! For all the times I've visited Highlands, NC, I never knew S-Valley existed until we were searching on VRBO for an escape from the heat.

Really enjoyed this place. Been to Cashiers many times. Good place for 2-4 people. Enjoyed the private back porch and walking through the wooded neighborhood. Upstairs room was too warm. Downstairs was comfortably cool with comfortable furniture. Well stocked and well kept

Lovely little gem in Sapphire!

Perfect getaway nestled in the mountains. This is a lovely condo in a lovely neighborhood with other condos. It was very quiet during our mid-September stay. Beautifully decorated and cozy. Lisa was very quick to respond via text and email. She provided detailed info about things to do and places to eat. It’s a few miles away from Cashiers where the grocery store and restaurants are located. There are several lakes in the area. We spent the day on. Lake Jocassee that’s a bit further away in SC. We walked a couple miles each morning throughout the neighborhood. This was in the perfect location, and we plan to go back. Also, the kitchen is well equipped if you like to cook. We cooked several nights while there. Highly recommended you stay here if you come to Sapphire!!

Perfect Mountain Rental Home and Host

Beautiful property, nicely appointed and conveniently located! My husband and I have stayed in Sapphire many times over the years, but this was the first time staying with Lisa. Before we even arrived Lisa made sure we had everything we needed for check in, plus a list of things to see and do in the area. Her property is very clean and all of the furniture is very comfortable. The gas fireplace is so easy to use and is wonderful on cool evenings. She has a great tv with streaming. The kitchen is well appointed and it was easy to prepare meals. The plush bath robes are wonderful! The property is in a great location. It’s just a few minutes from Micas Restaurant and the amenity center and it’s 10 minutes from the grocery store in Cashiers. It’s convenient to Cashiers, Lake Glennville, Highlands, Brevard, Asheville and Hendersonville as well as many waterfalls and the Blue Ridge Partway. The surrounding neighborhood is easily walkable and there is a lake and a river with a waterfall. All in all, it’s a great place to stay and Lisa is a wonderful host. We plan on returning many times in the coming years.

This is a cozy condo for the perfect mountain vacation. Lisa was very responsive and went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. Loved lounging with the gas fireplace going. The location is beautiful and close to everything you would want to do. You can stay close and enjoy Sapphire Valley, Cashiers and Highlands or venture out for day trips to other cute mountain towns. Thank you Lisa! We will definitely be back again!

A lovely stay in the mountains

My wife and I wanted to get away for a week and relax, and picked the perfect place. The feel was warm and cozy, with plenty of space for everyone (would easily accommodate four people). Living room had the perfect fireplace for morning coffee and late night hot chocolates (gas, with an instant-on remote, best I've seen). Kitchen was great for lunches and dinners, and the close proximity to golf, restaurants and shops was ideal. Lots of club amenities for guests as well. Met some of the nicest neighbors who live up there during the summer/fall periods, and they can't say enough good things about the community. Looks like we found our favorite spot!

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Moore Mays

Host profile image
I live in Jupiter Fla and Cashiers NC, 6 months each. I also have 2 gorgeous vacation rental houses in Savannah, GA. I am married with 3 children, 4 grandchildren, 7 rescue dogs and 3 rescue cats. My childhood summers were spent on Lake Glenville in Cashiers since 1965 and every summer since then. I have restored and renovated my childhood Lake Glenville lakefront home into a beautiful and special vacation rental as well as my grandparents summer house on Lake Glenville with a world class view, which is also a vacation rental. I love providing a superb, clean and comfy place for special guests to have a memorable vacation.

Why they chose this property

Sapphire Place is perfectly situated in the heart of beautiful Sapphire, NC. Because my lifetime family summer homes are located nearby on Lake Glenville, I wanted to own a quality vacation home in Sapphire as well, since there are so many wondrous sights to see and things to do in Sapphire. I found this villa and immediately fell in love with its wood cathedral ceilings, its peaks and angles, it's unique and welcoming feeling, its placement in a private community, yet so close to everything Sapphire, Cashiers, Highlands, and Glenville have to offer, which is extensive. It just felt right. So i bought it and spent 9 months lovingly decorating it with one of a kind furniture and curiosities that I believe guests will enjoy. I also added low level ambient lighting inside that sets a cozy mood and makes you want to stay home for the night, or enjoy coming home from a night out!! I am adamant about providing a quality vacation at an incredible value and the most important thing to me is that my guests have the best vacation of their lives. I am always available to my guests from their inquiry all the way through their vacation and beyond...a phone call away at all times. Constant open door policy is so very important as well as providing my guests with all the good activities and events and places to see that i've discovered throughout my 50+ years of roaming these mountainsides. I give all these descriptive experiences to my guests so that they too can enjoy the best waterfalls, hiking trails, local events, restaurants, shopping opportunities, etc. I've done it all and pass it on, for what its worth. My guests receive first class, hands on communication whenever they desire and most guests become permanent friends, which is what I love most. I chose this villa in the heart of Sapphire because I love what I do and there is nothing more fun and fulfilling to me than making people happy, and fun vacations are happy!!!
