Just perfect
Beautiful decorated, clean, every amenity you need and more. The extra touches are everywhere down to the soaps, pillow sprays, sound machine, coffee assortment. The king beds are very comfortable with great linens and blankets. Outside decks and areas are so inviting with hot tub, TV's and seating for relaxing all around this home. We love having access to the golf cart too. The golf course is tops. The local area has lots to offer. We will be back in fall.

Lovely visit to Sky Valley!
This was our second year in a row visiting the area. Last year we stayed in Clayton atop Screamer Mountain. This year we chose to stay in Sky Valley as my husband is an avid golfer.
There are SO many wonderful things about this property! Proximity to splendid golf course, absolutely adorable home and VERY well appointed. My husband wanted to buy it on the spot! Everything about this older home has been updated, leaving all the charm. Karen is clearly a decorator, as this is by far the best decor we have found in a VRBO. Super clean and all supplies / amenities in the kitchen and all rooms are top notch, By far our favorite space was the adorable deck, with the hot tub, fountain and sitting space. We spent 99% of our time on it, and it really is the total reason to rent this place! Everywhere you look there is something quaint to see, the little "mushroom patch" outside the back door, the area under the stairs, the massage chair!!! Use of the golf cart is a big bonus to tool around Sky Valley.
The single disadvantage to this home is that it is FULLY wooded; no view and while sunlight is visible through the trees, the house remains pretty much dark all day. I might think about removing some of the trees, purely for sunlight purposes. Definitely not all, but some could go :)
Despite that, the view surrounds you when you get in the car, so pick your poison. We chose the cute house :) Will definitely be back! Thank you Karen for an awesome weekend!

Had a chance to stay longer this time. As before, Sugarbush exceeded our expectations. It’s a great place to relax and unwind and it’s also a great starting point to visit wineries, waterfalls, great restaurants, the pool, and the golf course. Already planning our next trip.

Great hospitality and a home in the trees!
Sugarbush Shalet was wonderful! From the moment we walked it, we felt welcomed. The lights were on, the electric fireplace was burning, a welcome basket was waiting for us, soft music was playing, and the whole place smelled like cinnamon.
Everything felt very clean and organized. It was as clean as we would keep our own home. It was obvious that Karen and John take pride in their cabin. The kitchen was fully stocked (I think there were 7 or 8 cutting boards alone!) and we found everything we needed. There was even a welcome binder that had tips and how-to instructions for everything in the cabin, in the resort, and in the area.
Bonus features of the house that we really enjoyed: a saltwater hot tub (so nice and it didn't burn our skin), a billiards table, a guitar, a full-body massage chair, propane fire pits on both the front porch and the covered side porch by the jacuzzi, and a golf cart to ride around the resort.
Also, the place felt very private, up high among the trees. It was a natural respite from our busy lives. Very relaxing and homey.
I'm sure I'm forgetting something, but the whole experience was enjoyable and easy. We would definitely recommend this place!
