Nice STAY. Old pots and pans in new kitchen. Could have used a desk/chair somewhere for people who need to work remote during vacation( just a mention). Not a fan of homes under construction (downstairs floor under construction. For the money spent, this should have been noted before we booked.I was a bit disappointed as we paid about top dollar for available rentals (there were many avail at this time). Makes you feel like your in some temporary work site and not a vacation rental costing .Second stay in Banner elk and there is a serious lack of upkeep on expensive rental homes in the area. I noted this at several rental properties I checked out while in town.

Thank you for choosing Sugar Mountain! We are glad you enjoyed your stay overall. Since there is no construction going on at this home, we are not sure what you are referring to. This house only has a storage room downstairs, but there is no work being done. We do appreciate your suggestions and will use them for future improvements. Please come visit again!

Location to restaurants and other things to do is exceptional, centrally located to everything we want to do. Beautifully decorated throughout, you can tell the owners took great care in the renovations and decor. Perfect for our family. If I have to make a couple of recommendations would be: a larger quality Frying pan or electric skillet; the kitchen knives need to be upgraded; lighting in the master bath over the mirror, needs to be brighter. All in all it was perfect!! We will definitely return to that location!

Convenient location and cutely decorated however it was less than clean when we arrived. One bathroom appeared to have not been cleaned at all. 2 of the 3 bedrooms had so much hair on the linens one of my children chose to sleep on the couch instead. After contacting the property manager I was advised someone would be sent out to “inspect”. No one ever showed and they never followed up.

We are glad you enjoyed the location. We do apologize that housekeeping was not sent out to follow up. There was a miscommunication in the office. We did send an apology and refunded the cleaning fee. Our office was undergoing construction that day, and our computers and phones were not working for much of the day. This is not our normal response to any problems our guests may have.

A Gem Amongst the Trees

This mountain house is a treasure trove of beautiful things. Everywhere you turn there is something wonderful. Perfect location. Our family of 5 fit perfectly. The only draw back was no dressers and/or luggage rack for our suitcases and clothes especially in the master bedroom. The bedrooms could use brighter light bulbs. We stayed a week and had a great time.

Weekend getaway

The location of the house was great and property was beautiful inside and out. It was close to other properties, but still felt private. We originally intended to do some skiing/snowboarding for the last time this season. Due to warmer weather we changed our plans. There was still plenty to do in the area. The check-in process with the property management was different than other Vrbo properties I’ve stayed. You need to collect and return key from an office, but the office was nearby.

Nice Getaway !

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was very nice, nice decor, the beds were comfortable and great location to Banner Elk and Boone. The only things I would change aboutThis rental was that it needed a little TLC around the property. There were a dorty broom and mop on the front porch for some reason. Also, while looking over the back deck some white plastic was half unrolled by the wind from underneath the porch, there was also a plastic bucket and another broom within eyesight of overlooking the back deck. The fire pit to the left of the house definitely needs some upkeep. The area around the fire pit is not big enough to put a chair or would be on top of the fire. The landscape rocks are falling off around the perimeter as well. . Just these minor things would have made it more enjoyable . All in all, a nice vacation rental.

We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay, and do apologize about the outdoor concerns. We do have very high winds in this region frequently and it is hard to keep everything in place sometimes. We will look into the landscaping issues.

DO NOT RENT FROM RESORT REAL ESTATE AND RESORT. DO NOT RENT THIS HOUSE in the SUMMER. The description is deceptive! There is not air conditioning in all of this house. There is a portable A/C unit(pictured below) to cool the expansive den and kitchen and one window unit for the master bedroom. The other two bedrooms have NO A/C. The worst was when I called Resort Real Estate, the lady who answered the main phone was rude and totally was trying to gaslight me. She tried to argue that the house did have A/C but when I told her that the 2 bedrooms did not, all she said was,"well, were you uncomfortable last night?" Not the point and totally an attempt to redirect. Both her and another employee told me they would speak to management about some sort of partial refund but I've never heard anything. They are truly deceptive and dishonest in my opinion. I used them once before and they cancelled on me for no reason a few weeks before my trip and offered no alternatives. I should have never given them a second chance.... If you are the owner of this house and reading this, you have a nice house. Find another management company! If they are dishonest with customers, they will be dishonest with you!

We at RRR are very sorry that you were unhappy with the choice you made for a rental property. While we understand your misunderstanding about the air conditioning, there was no intentional deception in the description. The house does have air conditioning, as stated in the description. There is nowhere that it says "central air conditioning". When you called our office, you were very angry, accusing us of lying and being deceptive. We are sorry that you thought we were rude for saying that we did not try to deceive anyone. We apologized for the misunderstanding and even sent a maintenance person over to make sure the A/C units were working correctly, and they were. When we asked if you were comfortable, it was to see what we could offer to make you comfortable, not to "gaslight" you as you claim. "Gaslighting is a form of emotional abuse where one person manipulates another into questioning their own sanity and is a tactic used to gain control in a relationship", according to the definition. No one at RRR would ever practice this method on anyone. We strive to maintain integrity in our business and do what we can to make our guests comfortable. In the future, we will try to distinguish if a unit has central air or just an air conditioner, both of which essentially cool the air. We did not offer a refund since the unit does have air conditioning, and that was your only complaint. We are not dishonest, and it is unfair to say that based on your misunderstanding.
