Enjoy your Sugar Mountain getaway even more when you're within walking distance from the ski lodge. A three-minute walk will bring you to the lodge for ski rentals and hot chocolate, and when the weather is warm you can enjoy the resort's golf course and tennis courts. When you get back to this cozy condo you will have a gas fireplace to warm you back up after a day of shredding fresh powder. A full kitchen has everything needed for a home cooked meal with the family, and the balcony is a great spot to relax and appreciate the surrounding views.

What's nearby:
There is so much to do here at Sugar Mountain. With the ski lodge, golf course, tennis courts, and skating rink all within walking distance, you won't even need your car. However, a short car ride will bring you to white water rafting via High Mountain Expeditions, or panning for rare gems at the Foggy Mountain Gem Mine. If you want to catch some of the stunning mountain scenery, you can soar through the tree tops at Hawksnest Ziplining, and walk across the Mile High Swinging Bridge.

Things to know:

No A/C

The home was a cozy with a convenient location. There were a few things needing attention but was addressed quickly. Would stay again if available next year.

Mixed feelings!!

My family of 7 stayed for 3 nights. The first 2 nights there was no hot water!!!! I contacted them and they quickly sent someone out to look at it but it couldn’t be fixed. By the last night the problem resolved itself. I was told there would be a refund for my inconvenience but I still haven’t seen one! Also, when I arrived the dishwasher was full of clean dishes that were never emptied from the previous stay.

wonderful skiing trip

We are staying in this property for the second time. It is clean and comfortable, and has everything one needs. The major attraction is location - you can walk to slopes. This year there were lots of people, and finding parking was a real issue. So it was nice to avoid that!

Find another place- not good for 8 people. Maybe 4

The property is old and not kept up. The mildew/mold smell is overpowering. It was so bad we had to leave and could not spend the second night there. Sheets and beds were clean but not the bedspreads or the throw carpets in the bathrooms. I had to clean the porch before it could be used. Not fun!

Great getaway!

We loved our stay at this property. It was very close to the ski resort and at the end of the day, it was a great place to cook dinner and relax. Due to Covid, we mostly ate in and the open floor plan was nice. We did have one question while we were there and the property company responded to us right away. Check in and check out was super easy. Overall, it was a wonderful place to get away from it all.

The condo was Nasty! Musty smell, broken, uncomfortable,broken , dated furniture.

It was the worst experience I had ever encountered renting a VRBO. It should definitely be taken off the website. Such an uncomfortable stay and waste of money!

Loved this place

Loved the layout of the condo, and the value we got with everybody having their own room. The main room-kitchen was perfect for us, as was the beautiful porch. The location could not have been better for a few days of hiking in the mountains, and the people we met there were great too. The only complaint I have is the mattress hurt my back, and others in my group said the same. Also we went in mid-August and were worried about not having AC, but its cool up in those mountains, and we opened the windows and had no complaints about that.

Great condo!!!

This was a fabulous rental. There are four bedrooms, one is a loft on the third floor, so we had even more space than we thought. The condo has everything you could need - like a pancake griddle! The recliners and couch in the living room are unbelievably comfy. The WiFi was fantastic - even with 7 of us using it (with multiple devices each...). Sugar Mountain is a great resort with a lot going on. And there’s a huge Food Lion six minutes away!!!
