Cozy End-Unit Mountain Retreat w/ Ski-Back Access

Welcome to your mountain hideaway at the base of Sugarbush Resort’s Mt. Ellen, where comfort, scenery, and adventure come together in one inviting space. Tucked into a rare end-unit along Snowside Drive, this cozy retreat feels worlds away while still placing you moments from the lifts and trailheads. Wake up to soft morning light and easterly mountain views, then step outside and breathe in the crisp alpine air before heading out for the day.

In winter, guests love the convenient 10 minute walk to the Green Mountain Express lift at Mount Ellen. It is a quick drive over to Lincoln Peak. Evenings are all about unwinding by the glow of the gas fireplace, sharing stories from the slopes, or savoring a home-cooked meal from the modern kitchen featuring newer appliances. The comfortable primary suite provides a peaceful place to rest, while the open layout offers an easygoing atmosphere perfect for couples, families, and outdoor-loving friends.

Slide open the door to a serene backyard where kids can build snowmen, guests can wander on snowshoes, or everyone can simply soak in the quiet beauty of the Green Mountains. In the warmer months, take advantage of the community pool and tennis court, or use the private gear shed to store bikes before exploring Vermont’s renowned hiking and mountain biking trails.

Just a short drive away, you’ll find great local dining, charming shops, and all the essentials you need for a stress-free stay. Whether you’re here to ski, hike, connect with nature, or just unwind, this end-unit retreat offers the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and year-round mountain magic.
The condo is heated and features a kitchen and a balcony. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

Very clean and comfortable unit. The king bed is good. The bunk room twins looked fine, but we didnt use them. Having two full baths is a huge plus. Very functional living area layout, with a gas fireplace. The kitchen is well equipped. Like most rentals, the knives a get abused and weren't so sharp, but there is a good sharpener. I put an edge on a couple, and we were good. Multiple coffee making options! Great view, and peace and quiet. Communication with the host was easy, though we didnt need much. The location works great for us. Very close to Mt Ellen base (walkable). The access road does get a bit muddy in spring thaw.
