"Our Honeymoon"
Perfect ! Owner was aware we were there on honeymoon and left a bottle of Champagne and decorated the condo with various wedding related decorations. It was stocked with everything we needed for the week. Lisa made herself available to us easily and was prompt to respond to any questions and checked in on us frequently. We will be back.

Cozy stay
Shangri Lou has all we needed for our family vacation. Clean and well appointed townhome. We especially enjoyed the screened in porch and variety of games! Comfortable beds and easy drive to lake and pool. A short walk to the pond for fishing and enjoyment of nature. Shangri Lou is cozy and comfortable and feels very much like Home away from Home! Thank you, Lisa.

Great Fall Getaway
We had the best time at this home. It was very clean and had everything we needed for a five night stay. The owner was wonderful to communicate with and she has great taste decorating. We will be back next year and plan to rent this home again because it was perfect!

Great Host, Homey Spot
Lisa is a fantastic host. She communicated with us several times before our arrival date, and she was in constant contact throughout our stay. She answered any questions in just a few minutes, and she provided us with great recommendations for places to eat and things to do. Her condo is homey and welcoming. The couch and chair in the living room are extremely comfortable, and the beds were soft and cozy. The kitchen is small but well-stocked, and we enjoyed cooking on the gas stove. There's a nice screened-in porch that is a perfect place to sit and listen to the rain, which it does a lot in Sapphire! Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at Shangri-Lou, and we would definitely stay there again.

Very Satisfied
Our stay was excellent. The property was well kept, cozy, and yet still roomy. My kids loved the screened in porch and patio. It rained every afternoon we stayed, but we still had access to the community pools, game room and other activities- so we never felt rained in. Fairfield Lake was wonderful, the kids fished, swam, and even explored the lake using the boat we rented. Lisa left a basket of goodies for the kids who were so excited when we arrived. We can’t wait to return!

Wonderful host and great location
We were looking for a last minute mini vacation for my husband's birthday and we stumbled upon this listing and immediately fell in love with all the photos. We were happy that it had access to other amenities at the nearby resort that was only a couple minutes away. I had asked Lisa, the owner if she knew any kid friendly waterfalls because we have small children and shortly she emailed us a listing. We ended up visiting Silver Run Falls which was absolutely beautiful and just a short walk. We also visited Cashiers Sliding Rock where the whole family jad so much fun sliding down the rock into the swimming area.
I had mentioned it was my husbands birthday and she was so kind to surprise him with a birthday cake and a lot of surprise gifts for all 3 of our children. Her home was fully equipped with all necessary items: Condiments, dish soap, detergents, shampoo, paper towels, toilet paper, pans, pots, etc. Gas stove and smart tv's were a plus!
What I love the most was the screened in porch and the wine bar. The ambiance felt so homey and cozy. The family loved staying here. Lisa was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to visit.
Thank you Lisa for being the best host we've ever had!
