The travel up to Highlands is well marked. Staff at the front desk was very pleasant and helpful. For a couple travelling the accommodations are roomy and the bed comfortable. My only feedback is to label the light switches and the heater dials.

This is wonderfully located to access both Sugar and Beech Mt. The staff was absolutely amazing and wonderful to do business with. The property is older but has such beautiful views and the size of the apartments are huge. I wish I had booked directly instead of through Expedia.

Polly was kind enough to move me to a quieter unit, so I could work on my book. It took them some trouble and extra cleaning. What a kind extra mile!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The cost was comparable to other places in the area. We chose it for the amenities. The game room and puzzle areas they provided were a big hit with our young boys. The fooseball and ping pong equipment was definitely well used but that actually made us more comfortable in allowing our 4 and 7 year old to use them. They also had two gaming consoles that the kids thought were the greatest. This added huge value to our stay as it was fun and free activity right on property for evenings when we wanted to 'take it slow'. The property is dated. We are aware they are in the process of updating units but we couldn't tell if ours was considered "updated" or not because some things seem to be new (bathroom fixtures, etc.) but other items like flooring and firniture seemed worn or older styles. The staff was extremely helpful. Overall the stay was good. Our kids had a great time and we were so close to Sugar Mountain snow tubing/skiing and the Alpine Wilderness Coaster.

Nice cozy place
Great property in a great location. The unit was clean, roomy and comfortable. My only complaint is the strict checkout time. We were really hoping to get an extra 30 minutes to check out but management was unable to accommodate us. We ended up leaving some valuables behind as we were rushing out the door.

This place needs a a major update BADLY! Our rental had paint chips falling from the ceiling! Overall and for the price paid for this rental the property management should fix this space up and bring it up to date! This place feels like you stepped back into the late 70's...

We had an amazing stay over the weekend and after a long day of snowboarding it was great to have the jacuzzi open late night when I needed it most. I would highly recommend this place.
