Wonderful property and great stay.

We enjoyed our stay at Molly’s property, everything went smoothly, the instruction and check in and check out process were clear and no confusion. The place was clean, well furnished and decorated inside and out. It was really enjoyable to sit on patio to watch the spectacular sunset, it was memorable experience.

Short get away

Very clean, well maintained, and supplied well. The views are amazing and the bed was super comfortable! The drive is about 12-13 mins to the top and has some pretty steep inclines, but everything is paved. The best views are at the top!

Sapphire Sunset

100% as advertised! Perfect spot for a romantic weekend. If enjoy epic sunsets and being lulled asleep by thousands of chirping Katydids, this is the place for you. Bring your hill climbing A game as the road up to 4200ft is not for amateurs.

It doesn’t get any better than this!

Without a doubt, this was the best “homestay get away” experience I’ve ever had. The one BR was perfect for us - clean, comfortable, warm, a great bed, the list goes on. And the views! Sitting on the fabulous porch at the main residence for coffee in the mornings and a glass or two of wine in the early evenings was heavenly. I cannot say enough good things about our 3 night stay. Next time, we agreed that we must stay for a week!!

Lovely setting, comfortable furnishing

This getaway is in a beautiful setting. The driving instructions up a winding mountain road were very helpful and the house and furnishings were spotless and comfortable. It's the perfect place for a party of two to take in the splendor of the mountains near Cashiers. We had to alter dates and our host, Molly, made that process easy. She was great to work with.

My husband and I celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary in this lovely mountain getaway. The view is spectacular and the cottage was clean, comfortable, and provided everything we could ask for. We particularly enjoyed the expansive decks with million dollar views! The host was welcoming and responsive, and the property manager was friendly and helpful. We couldn’t have enjoyed it more!

Beautiful Property and Views

My husband and I spent 4 days here for my birthday. The host was always quick to respond to any questions that I had. This property is even better than depicted. The views are absolutely amazing and the home is a beautiful customized craftsman style. All the little extra amenities and special touches were appreciated. The outdoor deck with fireplace and the dining gazebo area just added to our enjoyment of this trip. Hot cocoa on the deck by the fire overlooking a beautiful mountain view was the absolute best birthday ever! Thanks Mollie for an awesome experience.

Beautiful doesn't begin to describe the view

My wife and I had never visited Cashiers or Highlands, and we booked this wonderful garage apartment at the top of Bald Rock in Sapphire Valley. It's a gorgeous 20 minute drive to Cashiers, 20 minutes to Glenville Lake, and maybe 40 minutes to Highlands...but the scenery up here beats anything you will see in all of those locations.
