It was a great place to stay for a weekend ski trip with 2 other people. The pullout bed was a little uncomfortable, but just using the couch instead was perfectly fine. Plenty of cookware and extra blankets and pillows.

We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Sugar Bear Lair. We apologize if the sleeper sofa was not comfortable. We will look to see if there is anything that we can do to make it better. We hope that you will stay with us again.

Weekend with teenage son and his friend!

Took my 15 year old son and his 16 year old friend skiing for a long weekend road trip. I was nervous because I'd never been to this place before and they've never skied. The condo was perfect really for us. It all worked out. Only drawback was that we couldn't walk to the slopes due to the recent hurricane Helene damage but other than that, it was great!
Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 21 Feb, 2025
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! We are sorry about the path. You could have gone a little farther down the path to cross to the slopes. We hope we will have that repaired this summer. Please come again! Thank you!
