About this property

Cozy Sapphire Retreat | Fireplace • Dog Friendly

  • Escape to the Blue Ridge Mountains and experience the beauty of Sapphire from our peaceful, completely updated 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhome. Surrounded by woods and just minutes from Cashiers, The Sapphire Retreat is the perfect place to relax, explore and enjoy everything the mountains have to offer.
    Spend your days hiking scenic trails, exploring waterfalls, visiting nearby Cashiers and Highlands, or enjoying the amenities of Sapphire Valley Resort. Then come home and unwind with a glass of wine by the wood-burning fireplace or relax outside on the deck around the fire table.
    Inside, you'll find a comfortable, beautifully updated home with everything you need for an easy mountain getaway. The two-bedroom layout is ideal for couples, friends or a small family, with 2.5 bathrooms providing plenty of privacy and space.
    We're also dog friendly, so your four-legged family member can come along for the adventure.
    Guests have access to Sapphire Valley Resort amenities, and our location makes it easy to enjoy the best of the area while still coming home to a quiet, peaceful setting.
    Fall is especially beautiful in Sapphire, with spectacular foliage, crisp mountain air, waterfalls and scenic drives right outside your door. In cooler weather, there's nothing better than returning from a day in the mountains and settling in beside the wood-burning fireplace.
    Whether you're coming for a romantic mountain weekend, a fall getaway, hiking and waterfalls, or simply a few quiet days away from it all, we'd love to welcome you to The Sapphire Retreat.
