The view from the back deck is absolutely AMAZING. My family had a wonderful long weekend at this house. The beds were comfortable and house had everything we needed. Owner was very responsive to any questions or issue we had. Would stay here again.

Our trip was fabulous. The Gathering is perfect and the 5 bedrooms and large room with the fireplace was wonderful! . Extra firewood and many items were available. We hope we have the opportunity to rent again next fall!

We had a good time overall and really enjoyed our stay. The views of Sugar Mountain were beautiful and made the trip worthwhile. The property was well located and provided good information for our visit.However, the bathrooms could use some upgrades, and it would be helpful to have extra basic supplies available. We also had a little difficulty finding the entrance initially.Despite these small issues, we had a good experience and enjoyed our time at Sugar Mountain. Thank you!

Very old dirty run down furniture. Old carpet in places where you came in from the hot tub thus getting it wet. Cabin had a funny smell, not sure how to describe it. I must say it was clean but needs a serious update.

The spectacular view of a remote location, yet, actual walking distance to amenities! Private, spacious, and functional.Its large, open living area and deck were perfect for gathering; both offered lounge and dining seating, and an unobstructed view of Sugar Mountain Ski resort.Its 3 en-suite bedrooms meant our married children had their own space.Its - rare for the mountains - flat driveway AND parking area were large enough to 3-point turn our Ford Expedition.Its vehicular entrance is hidden in plain view on a main road, so we didn't need a 4WD because we couldn't have been snowed in, yet there was zero traffic noise because of the length of the driveway.There are two route options from the home to the Sugar Mountain Ski resort, and both are a verified 5 minute drive.We are planning to stay here again for winter 2026/7, and watch Sugar Mountain's fireworks display from the deck.
