Overall the home is great for a couple of days on the slopes. Just hope you don't have any issues because the host Vacasa provides absolutely no help. We took our grandmother specifically so her and my wife could spend time together for a couple of days watching movies. The TV did not work, we called the moment we got there, then 4 other times and never got a call back. They didn't even attemp to provide any help. I would understand if it was a single owner who communicated and tried to find some help but couldn't, but a company that provides this service and makes no attempt to even respond let alone help is pathetic.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very glad to hear you enjoyed the home and its proximity to the slopes, but we sincerely apologize for the frustration you experienced with the TV and the lack of follow-up. That is not the level of service we strive to provide. We understand how important it was for your grandmother and wife to spend that time together, and we’re truly sorry that repeated calls did not result in timely assistance. Your experience has been shared with our local team so we can review what happened and ensure better communication and response moving forward. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and regret that this impacted your stay.

Great no-frills slope side condo

This property has a wonderful location with opportunities to ski-in/ski-out from Sugar Mountain slopes. The kitchen had the supplies we needed for basic cooking. There were plenty of beds, though they weren't particularly comfortable. While this place isn't fancy, it met our family's ski vacation needs.

Ski Sugar Mountain

The property was very well located for ski-in, ski-out IF there is lots of snow. Otherwise it’s a walk to the slope and rental shack. Also you have to climb stairs to get to this 3rd floor condo. Small kitchen, no room to store our groceries, old appliances. Too many useless throw pillows on the beds and empty duvet covers that didn’t make sense. Otherwise, great patio area overlooking slopes, comfortable dining, seating and sleeping areas.

Perfect location, not the perfect condo

You get what you pay for. You get what is advertised. The proximity to Sugar Mountain and the ski in, ski out feature is great. We bought our lift tickets in advance, put our skis on and a short walk and you’re on the slopes skiing on the green in no time. It was easy to park at the condo and it was easy to drive to Sugar Mountain and park if you wanted. We were able to use the kitchen to cook and it was very well stocked I would say. We did like the fact that they were plenty of places to hang coats and ski gear. A few negatives… The place smells of old cigarette smoke, the beds are uncomfortable, as well as the sheets. The carpet was old and dingy. The showers were old and tile was cracked and a little moldy in spots. There is only one TV in the living room, which is not convenient if you have kids wanting to go to their own rooms and watch TV before going to bed. This place needs a major update.
Response from VrboOwner on 26 Mar 2024
Randa, thank you for sharing your experience, we're glad you found our home's kitchen well-appointed and that its location served you well! That said, we apologize for any areas you found in need of TLC and for any odor you detected. We shared your comments with the local team and appreciate your feedback. Our online listings photos show the TV is in the living room but we regret any disappointment this caused your party. We enjoyed having you as our guest and we hope to host you again.

GREAT view… the condo itself is an awesome location and views of the slopes and the sound of the creek in the back.This place was dirty, filthy in places and mold in the showers and the final straw was the ROACHES running around the countertops and hiding in the cabinets. YUCK!

Almost all the basics

This is an aging little chalet space in need of some updates and repairs. Sugar Mountain is a fine location and this overlooks the resorts ski lifts. The location is convenient to area activities.

Clean and cozy condo

In general, everything was very good. I was very happy to find an electrical kettle in the kitchen! It would’ve been nice to have a toaster in the kitchen and a soap bar in every bathroom (we only found one), but, overall, everything was great. Thank you for the cozy stay!

We'll be back!

Great location in the building and in relation to the mountain. The 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths were and are perfect for our family. This was probably the coldest weekend of the season and year, not one issue with the heat in the unit, other than it worked so well we had to keep it very low. We will try and stay here when we come back for sure.

Handicap accessible

Was thinking access was ground level. Realized upon arrival I had to climb stairs. Took awhile, but I managed. If there is no place to check on potential handicapped guests, they need to know ahead of time. Found out the day of arrival and too late to switch. If it was on accommodations, I did not see it.
