We had a great stay at this place. The views were great. You can see the skiers coming down sugar mountain which was fun! Beds were very comfortable. Everything was very clean. When we needed anything, the host always got back to us right away. It was about 15 minutes to sugar mountain because you had to drive back down the hill to get to the sugar mountain entrance.

Skyleaf Condo

Wonderful Stay in the Mountains!We absolutely loved our stay at this condo. It was spotless, beautifully furnished, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The mountain views were breathtaking — we loved waking up to them every morning and winding down by the fireplace in the evening.The location was perfect: peaceful and quiet, but still close to great restaurants, trails, and shops. Check-in was super easy, and the host was friendly and responsive throughout our stay.We couldn’t have asked for a better mountain escape. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

Our Dream Thanksgiving Retreat

Our stay at this Sugar Mountain condo was nothing short of amazing! The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the fully stocked kitchen made everything feel effortless—truly a home-away-from-home experience. The GPS takes you right to the building, which made arrival incredibly easy. The condo is completely stocked with all bathroom toiletries, extra pillows and blankets. The location is unbeatable. You are minutes away from Grandfather Mountain, Boone and Blowing Rock. You have a stunning view and can even watch skiers glide down Sugar Mountain right from the condo. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly, highly recommend. We've already booked our next stay.

much smaller space than we thought. only one room had a ceiling fan so without ac i think its a necessity to have in rooms. The heat wave came in it was difficult. Left a day earlythe bunk beds had heavy duvet inserts as bedspreads. one was missing the flat sheet. its an odd shaped room with the only window in an oddSofa had a huge stain on it- Becky was great and came to look at it.
