Great Sugar Trip

This property was perfect for a quick weekend ski trip. You can walk down to the ski slopes if you want or it is a very short drive. House is very clean and well appointed.

Great location for ski access

This house is a 2 minute drive to the Sugar Mountain ski center so you can be on the slopes quickly, and you can easily go “home” to eat or rest during the day. If you want to be in the middle of winter sport action (skiing/tubing/skating) this a great property. Some people may not appreciate the lights, noise, and nightly machine maintenance that go along with being slope side but we loved it. The house is large and easily accommodated our family of 6. The furniture/decor is comfortable and practical for groups with plenty of room to store your skis and boots. The host was quick to respond to the questions we had throughout our stay. We will def rent this property again in the future.

Relaxing Retreat

Very nice home. Beautiful views and gracious/communicative hostess. Easy access to hiking and other activities. Comfortable home with plenty of amenities. Great neighborhood for morning and afternoon dog walks. Very quiet, but when music is playing at the ski resort, you can sit out on the deck and enjoy the music.
