Great getaway
We had a wonderful stay at the condo, basically across the street from sugar mountain resort/ski. The condo was remodeled with very comfortable beds/blankets/pillows and plenty of towels. Each room had it own temp control which was nice. The kitchen was well stocked as well. I would absolutely require 4WD or all wheel drive as we could NOT get up the very steep driveway even with chains on my Toyota Highlander’s front wheels after 3 inches of snow. We walked/hiked up and down (10min each way) for 2 days until snow melted. Other than our snowy hikes that weren’t desired by 3 teens ;), it was a perfect place! Another recommendation for host is to put specific directions on how to use the TV (3 remotes)

A decent mostly reliable ski lodging
The property had nice upgrades but did have some unreliable features. The pull out couch probably is more of a liability than an asset as one could hurt their back sleeping on it it’s so old. The tvs are a nice feature but the remotes didn’t work and it was hard to work them. Overall though it was a nice stay and we were grateful to stay there.

Great Ski Weekend!
Our family enjoyed a long ski weekend at this condo. The check in and out process was very easy and management was very accessible. We had an issue with the modem that was fixed quickly. The condo was very clean and well equipped. The owners have thought of everything that you could need for prepping meals. We also appreciate the large supply of towels for our family of 5. The location is very convenient to the Sugar Mountain ski resort, grocery store, and restaurants. We would definitely recommend staying her and hope to return.

Lovely stay, beautiful spot - Keep small kids off very high deck
We had a lovely stay at this condo with our kids and nephew. It had everything we needed and was super cozy. My only suggestion is that the rental company should update the railings on the deck and/or better describe the current railings so that families with small children know that young kids should definitely not go out there. The deck is gorgeous but also incredibly high (50 feet or more maybe?) because of how the condos are built into the side of the mountain. There are just two railings, one at waist height for an adult and one at knee height of an adult. A young child could easily fall if they were to get out there. It was fine because we simply told our six year old (the youngest on the trip) that he was not allowed out there at all and kept the door locked. But I would be worried about any younger kids somehow accidentally getting out there. There is a strong lock on the sliding glass door, but I do think parents of young kids should know about this before you book the place.

Super cute and exactly what we needed for our weekend. One of the best stocked kitchens we've seen with needed utensils, food prep items (which was much appreciated since we were cooking and eating most meals there). Great little retreat, which was much needed for our family! Thank you!

Mountain Condo
Condo with mountain views. As advertised--very nice accomodations. Rental info & communication is with an off-site property management firm. No info for directions or check-in sent by owner or vrbo--only by the mgt firm under title of "Reservations", which ended up in spam.
Otherwise, nice experience.

Quaint cottage
We enjoyed our stay in this quaint mountain cottage. The place was immaculate and cozy and comfortable. I was a little disappointed that the website indicated there was a washer/dryer in the unit, but there was not. We stayed two nights and there were not enough wash cloths, so I ended up buying some, since I could not wash the ones we had already used.

Great for our family
This condo worked great for a ski weekend for our family of 5. We appreciated the provision of all the essentials - hand soap, dish towels, linens, extra blankets and pillows, etc. Some rentals don’t provide you with anything but this was like walking into someone’s home. Clean and updated. Good location just a couple minutes’ drive from Sugar. I gave the location 4 stars because the units are numbered strangely and we couldn’t find it at first. Had to call the rental company to figure out which one it was. Overall a great fit for us and we (including our kids) were very happy.

Nice and homey place to stay.
This was a very nice place to stay for a few days. No washer and dryer in unit so this would not have accommodated us for a longer stay. One word of caution is the drop off on the right side of the unit. I feel this should be blocked off for the safety of children and especially night time arrivals who may not see the drop off area. Other than that safety concern, I highly recommend this condo.
