This was great and perfect for what we needed. We have stayed at Sugartop Resort before and really like it. To Whom it may concern, however, the bath drains in this unit are clogged apparently, as they both drained extremely slow.

It was ok
There is no W/D in the unit, just on the floor. They did not have enough shower towels or pool towels for all the guests in my party. Lots of the kitchen tools seemed old and rusted. The bunk bed in the second bedroom was very wobbly and seemed very cheaply made.
Aside from the unit, Sugar Mountain was great. I will choose another unit and will not go through vacasa for our next trip.

Home Away From Home
This is our second stay at this condo and it was just as wonderful as the first. I’ve been coming up to sugar since I was a little girl. We owned a condo until I was in college. It’s my very favorite place to go!
I cannot rate this property as I did not stay there. I was notified less than 24 hours prior to check in that the pool would be closed. This was the main reason I booked this property so my child could have some place out of the cold to swim. We had to find other accommodations and the management is not working with us on getting a refund.
