Loved the convenience of the ski in and sky out, and the very nice room!
We loved the spot. The kids' bunk bed is a bit squeaky/creaky but otherwise the place is perfect for a mountainside getaway. The best thing was actually the management at the Country Club. We accidentally locked our keys inside the condo on a really cold night and they were there in minutes. Would definitely stay there again.

Reviewer Comments:
Unit was clean. No bugs or dirt. Condo was in desperate need of some updating. The mattresses in the unit were the worst I have ever experienced. The master mattress was so old and the mattress topper they threw on it was also worn out. All you did was sink in a hole. My husband and I could not get comfortable or get any sleep. The mattresses in the kids room were just as bad. I had two 15 year old boys that said floor was more comfortable. The bunk on top they felt was dangerous since if someone got up there the bars holding it sagged significantly. Also, the toilets are not up to code. They are 14 inches off the floor and you have to do a major pilates squat to use the toilet. For what you pay it was a total disappointment. You are much better off to stay somewhere else if you are looking for a decent bed and bathroom.

Including working internet and cable, on Superbowl weekend. Called for service and didn't receive a call back for 24 hrs, at which point we would only be in the condo 18 hours longer. Ran out of toilet paper and no liquid dish soap or cleaning supplies at all. Would happily rent again again if these items were addressed.

We stayed here when they had over a foot of snow in January. You walk right out of your condo to the ski slopes. We brought my 23 year old son and 2 of his friends and everyone had a blast. The condo had everything you need and was clean. The king size bed was a little uncomfortable. They put memory foam on the mattress and should have just replaced the mattress. This is my only complaint, everything else was good. We would definitely go back.

This is the third year in a row we have stayed at Sugar Ski and Country Club. It was a wonderful way to spend a few days. I must say we were a little worried about the skiing since their has not been much snow but the slope conditions were great. Man it was cold and with the wind chill in the negative we opted not to ski the first day in a half but we swam in the pool and enjoyed the hot tub. It was great. The unit we stayed in was awesome and we will definitely be booking this one again. So cozy and the enjoying the fire while relaxing on the sectional sofa was great. Just awesome to be able walk out of your place and start skiing and have a place to easily be able to come in from the cold or get a bite to eat before heading back out to the slopes. Great time!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this unit. We rented this place for 3 nights and love every minute of it. We spent a lot of time in the living room with the fireplace on pretty much every night. Great location if you are skiing. If I have to nic-pick something, it's the bathroom. They kind of dated and small. The shower curtains definitely need to be replaced or cleaned. Other than that, we love this place

This condo is located convenient to the ski lift which was perfect for a family with kids. However, when we checked in, the first thing I noticed is that the floor was dirty in the living room and bathrooms. I could tell it had been cleaned but not very thoroughly. Also, there are not any overhead lights and very small lamps in each room so we struggled to find our clothes in the morning and at night. We had to use our iphone most of the time. IF you rent these rooms, be sure to take a flashlight!!!
