Foxhunt at Sapphire Valley
Activities were not close— had to get in the car for activities. Condo was very spacious, internet worked well. Parking was a bit dicy at times but overall, it was a great value and a great stay.

Amazing little house in the woods! We absolutely loved it. Close enough to walk to town while also feeling secluded and woodsy.
