Take in the beautiful views of the mountains and valley from this condo's lounge-worthy deck. Tucked away in an incredibly popular ski area, this is the quintessential spot for satisfying the inner skier in you. This home also boasts a beautiful view of the Sugar Mountain ski slopes. Pull out the private infrared grill and cook up something lovely in the fresh air - you're on vacation, after all! Inside, guests of this condo will be blown away by the luxurious touches throughout. A gas fireplace will keep you comfortable. Guests can stay up playing board games in the common area, which is seamlessly connected to the dining area and fully equipped kitchen. You'll be able to cook up whatever vacation cooking project you're longing to create in this kitchen - but there are also wine glasses and a corkscrew for when you're ready to kick back and relax. Pull in the room's darkening shades when you're ready for a deeper rest during your stay in this secluded valley.

What's nearby:
Sugar Mountain, Beech Mountain, and Grandfather Mountain are all within 12-and-a-half miles of this condo. Guests will be able to access to wonderful slopes for skiing, snowboarding, hiking, and just general exploring within just a short drive. Local ski shop Edge of the World (just five-and-a-half miles away) can set up guests with gear or even an entire planned day trip. If you're not into extreme sports, you'll love driving down the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway. But you'll want to stop at the Mile High Swinging Bridge 11-and-a-half miles from the home - the incredible panoramic views just shouldn't be missed.

I don’t like to get bad reviews but there were a few setbacks, everything was resolved, and the stay was a perfect trip with me, and my two sons. Furnishings were nice extremely clean, great views of the ski slope or downhill mountain biking. We will be back!

Great rental property!
The actual rental was perfect. Two bedrooms with comfortable beds (we brought our own pillows per another review), plenty of blankets, warm fireplace, amazing views, clean and nicely decorated. We were in close proximity to skiing, tubing, alpine coaster, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. The downside to our visit, was the 24/7 communication line with the Vacasa call center (not necessarily the local employees). Our first problem was trying to access the condo community gate with the key card provided. It was faulty and it took about 30 minutes of texting and calling the 24/7 line (while sitting in the car outside the gate) for a random resident to let us in and give us a 4 digit code. The conversations were beyond frustrating. A local employee did eventually call and he was kind. He offered to replace the card and I told him not to bother since we had a code now. The next day we tried to remedy the broken WIFI. Again, a 30 minute conversation that led nowhere. The maintenance guy that called the next day (day 3/4) was wonderful, but a part was likely broken and would require a new one from spectrum. No WIFI for the weekend. We also didn't have washcloths or kitchen towels, which we requested and never received. We didn't even get a response. It didn't ruin our weekend, we still had a wonderful time. I hate to even take a star off because none of this falls on the homeowner, but it should be noticed. To note, check in is at 4pm, and the office closes at 4pm.

Ski trip
Condo was nice and roomy. Clean. Guest bed was worn and not comfortable. If snow expected you need 4 wheel drive as condo is at botttom of several hills. Ski lifts viewable and could see skiers going down hill. Could hear snow blowing equipment through the night

Great Thanksgiving break
Our family of 3 enjoyed our Thanksgiving in the mountains at this elegant condo. The decor is modern, clean and floors remodeled and the beds were comfortable. The sunrise and sunset views of the slopes and mountains was spectacular from the deck! We arrived in the evening and had to find the condo in the dark. The low misty clouds moved in making the windy road feel scary to navigate without street lights. It was a good thing our car was all wheel drive to make it up the steep drive. Our first night there was no snow on the slopes but after the cold snap when the temperature dropped to below 30F they had the snow blowers on all night making snow. Some family members did not appreciate the constant humming noise throughout the night. On arrival there were supplies like dish washing tablets, paper towels and toilet paper to last 2-3 days.The kitchen comes with the basics to cook, with kettles and coffee machines. The one thing that was missing was a cleaning sponge to hand wash the dishes, and only one hand towel. It made cleaning up after Thanksgiving dinner very challenging. The freezer ice maker was clogged up making it difficult to open the door, so we decided to leave it to the cleaning staff to fix. Overall we enjoyed our peaceful and relaxing weekend tucked away in the mountains. This will be a spot we will return to in the future during ski season.

Mountain Marvel
The property is quite lovely and located at the top of a long, winding drive on Sugar Mountain. The views from the deck were spectacular although sunsets were really not a thing as the house did not face west. We did not receive accurate directions and got a bit turned around getting there. If you can plug your GPS in with the address though, you should have no problems. There are only two suggestions I have for the property, one is to get new pillows for the beds and the second is to provide instructions on how to access cable and the streaming channels.

Beautiful mountain views
Great location for day trips to Banner Elk, Boone, and Blowing Rock. Amenities were everything we wanted including cable tv and central air, which is hard to find in the mountains. Overall clean but as with any rental property, it could use a good deep cleaning, just some dust in corners, etc. The water pressure in the main bathroom was fantastic! It was a very comfortable stay.
