Sugar Mountain High is a luxury mountain log home

Sugar Mountain High is a luxury mountain log home that sits on 2 plus acres on beautiful Sugar Mountain. No expense has been spared in making this home one that offers everything you could possibly need to have a wonderful relaxing vacation. There are amenities galore! Children can run and play in the large fenced in back yard or they can take a hike through the woods while the adults enjoy the fire pit or take a nice leisurely soak in the large hot tub. You can play video games in the loft, play a game of shuffleboard or get your popcorn ready and watch a movie in the private movie theater. If that doesn't suit you, you can relax in the private sauna; want to get away from the crowd, enjoy a game of pool or just relax on the comfy sofa watching TV in the exquisitely decorated pool room. This home offers you hassle free access to the winter activities on Sugar Mountain. There is a free shuttle pick-up location within a very short distance of the house that will take you to the ski resort without you having to fight the traffic. The shuttle will bring you back to the home as well.
As you enter this log home, the custom mural in the great room will take your breath away. Follow it around the room and allow the story it tells to evolve. The exquisite fully equipped kitchen with custom cabinets and unique leather countertops is jaw dropping. The absolute perfect place to create a gourmet meal. The pantry offers tons of space for your groceries, you have a charming coffee nook and a wine cooler to keep your wine at the perfect temp.
This home would be perfect for two families wanting to vacation together as it features two master suites. One on the main level and one upstairs. Each has a king bed and en suite bathroom with stand alone soaking tub, tiled shower, and dual vanities. There is also a third bedroom upstairs hosting a beautiful log queen bed and log bunk beds.
Sugar Mountain High is only minutes away from all Sugar Mountain has to offer. Only minutes away from beautiful Banner Elk and approximately 15 miles away from the town of Boone. This mountain home affords you a vacation of a lifetime.

It was a nice location and a cozy cabin to be snowed in for the weekend. The administrative staff was responsive and quick to dispatch the maintenance crew to come check out the cabin when the pipes froze over. Unfortunately at the end there were some disagreements about the responsible party for some of the damage incurred to the home, but they weren't entirely unreasonable. I do think it's a good reminder to capture the before/after of the home yourself before check-in and check-out. Overall a good experience.

This house was wonderful! Great location and lots of space for two families. Would recommend double bunks in one of the play areas as I felt the kids would have loved to have their own space. Definitely recommend to others.

Nice home - Enjoyed the stay.

Though we did have an issue with the stove being locked in “sabbath” mode all week and unusable, we did enjoy the house. It is a good location and the space is very large with lots of room for a family of nine to spread out and not feel cramped. Overall would stay there again if the opportunity arises.

Ski Trip to Remember

We greatly enjoyed our stay and hope to plan this trip again at this very same house. Very spacious! The game options were a huge hit with kids of all ages, mom loved the relaxing hot tub at the end of a day of skiing, dad's favorite was the wood burning fireplace in the attached room pool room. There were a few hiccups with the house but the property manager responded and addressed. We didn't fully understand the location -- while on the mountain (close to the top), you have to drive down to get to the ski resort. In bad weather this can be a challenge. Overall we hope to visit again.

Trash issue and cleanliness of the property.

The house was absolutely beautiful and spacious for family of 2. So many activities in the house which was great for those rainy days. Downside of our vacation was that we had to take out our trash to an address far away we had difficulty trying to find the address listed and when we arrived; the location was closed due to holidays. This is something the Resort should know ahead and notify the guests. It was extremely unpleasant and disrespectful to us because we paid close to 6K and yet dealt with such issue. We were stressed out and worried about trash which was very unnecessary. We wasted our rest time on this! I again wanted to mention the trash issue here because I already emailed to Resort but noone cared to respond which is very unprofessional. The service is horrible; the comforters were not clean, there was animal hair on the blankets. I realize that they don’t really care about their guests because they are busy during holidays and they don’t have any issue finding customers during this time which makes them careless. Very sad! Please fix the trash problem and verify the cleanliness of the property for future guests. I am sure noone would want to drive around with stinky trash in his/her car!! Thanks

Wow. We will definitely be back!

This property is absolutely amazing! Where do I begin?! The living room was open but still cozy, and the attention to detail and the decor was perfect! Rustic metal and wood, unique plumbing and lighting fixtures, a mountainous mural, beautiful views off the back balcony, a private theater room we used every night to watch movies as a family, a hot tub, a pool table room with a real wood burning fire place, and a sauna! We saw deer that came within 6 feet of us in the backyard, a rabbit, and a chipmunk - I felt like a Disney princess! And everything was stocked from tons of towels (even a special basket of towels for the hot tub), an armoire full of games, a kitchen full of every gadget and utensil you’ll need to cook yummy meals. (I would usually rather take a beating than cook, but this beautiful kitchen inspired my inner domestic goddess! I whipped up chicken pot pie and taco soup - my family was in shock! Haha!) If I had to give a minor criticism, the decor in the 2 master suites didn’t quite match the vibe and felt like my grandma had picked the ensemble. Muted pinks and greens just didn’t really fit the rugged mountain theme. BUT, this is a minor critique and wouldn’t deter me from choosing this beautiful, well-appointed home over and over again. Also, unlike some mountain homes, this one is conveniently located and easily accessible from the main road (no harrowing gravel roads and only 2 minutes from a Food Lion). I highly recommend this home!
