SPRING 2025 SPECIAL-Book 4 Nights-PAY 3 nights/new resv/contact me to adjust

Mountain View/Resort Amenities/waterfalls/decks/firepit/outdoor spaces/wifi/pets.
This mountain cabin is the perfect place for your great outdoors experience, for a romantic getaway, or for a much deserved respite! You will find that this house has everything that you will need: a fully equipped kitchen, two dining areas, a fireplace, screened porch, large outside deck with propane fire pit, all nestled on approx. one acre on a secluded cul-de-sac.

When you are enjoying your time on one of the great decks (there are 3 in all and the screened porch) you will be listening to the waterfall located at the bottom of the property. It is a steep descent to view the waterfall-but worth the experience.

The parking area is right outside the front door.

Guests can enjoy fishing located one block away on Hogback Lake. For guests who desire an active stay, our Wyndham Resort at Fairfield Sapphire Valley amenities* offer: golf, tennis, mountaineer putt-putt golf, two heated pools, outdoor pool, hot tubs, sauna, game room, fitness room, jogging track, ski/tubing area (winter months), and we have a canoe for your pleasure on scenic Fairfield Lake. Pontoon rentals are close by on beautiful Lake Glenville during the summer months.

Most Summer/Fall guests agree that the "Best Room in the House" is actually the screened in back porch. The comfortable sofa and chairs invite you to sit and enjoy a beautiful view of Hogback Mountain!

*With this rental, adult guests (children under 14 are free) can purchase a guest pass for $5/ day. The pass allows a guest to have access to all of the amenities at Wyndham Resort at Fairfield Sapphire Valley. This also includes reduced greens fees at Sapphire National Golf Course.

Wonderful

While we only visited for two nights… It was a lovely stay. The house had exactly all the amenities as described and more cozy and quaint in person. We would love to visit again. Maybe this time in the summer to take advantage of the lake activities . The hiking was very close and made for a wonderful day for my family. And it’s hard to please teenagers these days. Happy holidays!

Hogback Heaven Cabin

My husband and I along with our 10 year old Sheltie stayed at this cabin Thursday November 14 to Monday November 18. What a wonderful cabin and perfect location. The cabin is well stocked and has everything one would need. The cabin is comfy and very cozy. We enjoyed sitting in the screened porch every afternoon and had a fire in fireplace every evening. The master bedroom bed is very comfortable. We loved our stay and will return.

Best Mountain Weekend Stay

We loved our weekend stay when we dropped our girls off at camp. It was so peaceful, clean, and beautiful! Our favorite spot to sit and relax was the screened in porch. Our dog was welcome and loved relaxing at the house and taking walks around the neighborhood. We will definitely stay here again!

My family spent 4 nights at this cabin. It is located in a gorgeous, wooded community. The cabin is beautiful, comfortable, and is stocked with everything you could possibly need. We loved the deck spacing, furniture, wood burning stove, property grounds, and the privacy. The host communicated with many recommendations and there were information binders to answer any questions. We loved it! Highly Recommended. Thank you to the property owners for making the cabin available.

Perfect mountain getaway

We’ve stayed at many different Vrbo properties over the years and this is one has to be one of our all time favorites. We loved the location and took advantage of the resort amenities access. This house, as other reviews have commented, is just so homey and comfortable, and has just about everything one would need, including lots of condiments in the kitchen and Keurig pods. We would love to stay here again for sure, when we come back to the area. We found the beds to be very comfy as well which is always something I look for in reviews, so wanted to give that a mention.

Sapphire escape

This was a great place to escape the heat and humidity of FL! We enjoyed our time and the house had a ton of charm and comfort. The frig and kitchen appliances were all clean and in great shape. The washer and dryer worked very efficiently! The screened in porch was relaxing. We look forward to returning again in the future. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Fabulous mountain home

This home truly felt like a home away from home. Well-stocked kitchen, cozy decor, and the screened in porch was like being in a treehouse looking down into an enchanted forest! The owner was a delight to speak to. Nice neighborhood for walking our dog and close to excellent restaurants. We hope to visit again!

Wonderful stay in the mountains

We travel to the mountains twice a year and we always travel with our dog. This house is very nice and has everything you would ever need. The owners really make you feel welcome in their home from supplying k-cups for your morning coffee to brochures of beautiful sapphire and things to do. Would definitely stay at hog back again!

We had the most wonderful time at this fabulous home. It’s beautiful inside and out and has everything we could possibly want. We enjoyed hiking and sightseeing during the day and evenings on the deck and screened in porch. It’s so peaceful with lush greenery and beautiful flowers all around.

The house was absolutely wonderful. Everything needed was at the house. Loved the screened porch. House is spotless. Only negative was lack of a/c unit in downstairs bedroom. There was an a/c unit in living room but downstairs bedroom door had to be left open to have air access and it barely cooled bedroom off.
