About this property

Renovated condo! Sugar’s PEAK!<br>Immaculate & Cozy! 5 ⭐️ reviews!<br>❄️⛄️⛷🎿🗻🚵💎🚂🍺

Gorgeously decked out condo with amazing views year round. Take a shuttle directly from the property down to Sugar Mountain in the winter, or enjoy the mild summer days, breathtaking foliage in fall, and verdant spring hikes.

Minutes from Grandfather Mountain, Linville Gorge, Hawks Nest Mountain Tubing & Ziplining, Beech and Appalachian Mountain Ski resorts. Close to outlets, breweries, tons of shopping, local art, Tweetsie Railroad, downtown Boone etc. Seriously, this is our family’s HAPPY PLACE as there is something for everyone! My kids LOVE all the Gem Mining too!

Please NOTE: If you arrive during the winter months, it is at the top of Sugar Mountain, so we recommend four-wheel-drive or chains just in case. Safety first!

Also, the pool is open for your enjoyment but on rare occasions it is closed for repair, cleaning, or maintenance. The owner has no control over this. Thankfully it’s almost always open and it is such a fun amenity.

Family ski trip to Sugar

Our condo at Sugar Top was very nice, but we were disappointed right when we arrived. We were not told we would not be able to park our car at Sugar Top. Instead we had to unload our car and then quickly move it from the unloading zone and take a Jeep Grand Wagoneer ride down to a designated parking lot part way down the mountain. Management was rude and said we could stay at the Best Western if we didn't like the parking policy. So to go skiing for a family of 4, we had to pack up all our gear and ski bags, ride in a Wagoner (which often we had to wait on because they could only take 7-8 people at a time) to our car, get in our car and drive to Sugar Mountain, then unload our gear and load it back onto a school bus that transports people to the lodge at Sugar. It was ridiculous! In the future we will definitely be staying at the ski in and ski condos.

Very Nice

We stayed during February and skied at Sugar Mountain. Unit looks as it does in the pictures. We had plenty of room or relax while we went on the slopes. The over look of the resort was nice though we didn’t get to see it much since it snowed while we were staying.

Cozy comfortable trip to Sugar Mountain

Property is adorable, CLEAN, and comfortable! We would stay again if we visit Sugar Mountain again. Unit is complete with everything you need-cookware/spices, games/puzzles, cozy blankets etc. The building’s pool/hot tub were a great addition after a day on the slopes. The kids liked the lobby store too. This was our first visit and we were a bit confused about the check-in process but this doesn’t have anything to do with the unit. We also arrived during snow storm! As advertised, you MUST have chains or all week drive to get up the mountain in winter and the hot water runs out quicker than you might want.

Great Stay Skiing

We stayed for the weekend with friends including two 5 year olds. The condo was in the best location and had a shuttle to the bottom of the slopes. It was fully stocked and even had several games for the kids to play. The view was stunning! We had a maintenance issue that the property manager responded to immediately, even late at night. We were extremely happy and will be staying again in the future!

Love Staying Here!

This is the second year in a row we’ve stayed in this unit and both times have been a great experience. Even with 6 of us, there is still enough space for us to maneuver and be comfortable. The owner, Betsy, is so sweet and always responsive and we love the views as well as the amenities of Sugartop. We’ll definitely stay here again!

Nice and comfortable

The owners were very responsive. Unit was well equipped. LOVED the black out shades in the bedrooms. Shuttle was rough and lots of long waiting. The pool was a little steamy and condensation was landing on us. If you don’t plan on using the pool frequently or have places to go to and from often this is perfect or if you are and just love nice views and a cozy unit to come back to this is for you!! We had friends in another unit that was managed by a property mgt co vs owners and their place was awful and not nearly as nicely kept. Thanks Betsy. We will be back.

Nice condo, beautiful view, shuttle to parking

This is like staying at a friend's place for the weekend. The owners are responsive and nice. Clean and comfortable stay. Shuttle to parking a little inconvenient, but it's a high capacity lodging, so makes sense. Pool was as pictured and fun. Overall a great experience.

Comfortable Stay at the Top of Sugartop!

We spent 2 nights while visiting family in the area. Stay was overall comfortable and condo was clean, well decorated, and convenient to Banner Elk. Couches and bed in master were not supportive so may need to be replaced soon. Was worried about no ac in the summer but it was perfectly cool sleeping temps with the windows opened and so quiet at night. Not at the fault of the owner at all but there were exterior paint renovations being done during the day. Our porch view was obstructed by ropes and occasionally workers on the balcony. Enjoyed amenities of property pool, hot tubs and workout room. As others have mentioned I can understand during busier times the parking situation would be difficult. There was no shuttle running while we were there but luckily we were able to park in lot A. Not an issue for us but it was quite the hill you had to walk up to the property entrance.

Beautiful condo with stunning views!

Renovated beautiful property! I would guess it’s one of the nicest units in the building! Once you are in your unit it’s fantastic. My only word of warning: the parking situation is a mess. They have 5 spots for check in and check out at the top of the hill. You will wait in line at the bottom of the hill if it’s busy. I spent hours of my vacation waiting in line to go up and down the hill in a shuttle van. They have over 100 empty parking spots at the top of the hill “in case” owners show up. They refer to us as renters and them as owners. I do not understand how they don’t get everyone is a Guest. I gave this a 5 star rating because of the beautiful job done by this owner. But I will not stay here again unless the parking situation is resolved.

Great condo on Sugar Mountain

My wife, mother in law and I really enjoyed our stay at this condo. It was clean, updated and laid out very well. It was just as described on VRBO and provided a great place to stay while we were in the area. The only real challenge is getting from the parking areas to the condo itself but you really know that up front when you book there. Once you are in the condo, the spectacular mountaintop views more than make up for that. Great place.

Skiing in NC

We enjoyed our stay at Sugar Top. The condo was beautiful and cozy. Loved the decorations. The view of the slopes was nice, we watched the better skiers below!🤣 Check in was easy and there was plenty of people to help if we needed it. The condo was clean and the beds were comfortable. Plenty of blankets to cuddle while watching Netflix. The shuttle drivers were great! We didn't have to wait long at all to get to the building, make sure you tip them! Call the front desk and wait in your vehicle for them to come. We cooked dinner one night to use the kitchen. Food Lion is at the bottom of the mountain, close by. We went to Stonewalls restaurant too, LOVED it!! As for Sugar Mtn Resort, we enjoyed skiing but the ticket/rental process is unorganized for big crowds. We will be back to stay at this cute condo during a less crowded time!! Also my boys enjoyed the pool, they made some friends. Thank you for sharing your place with us!

Great location, check in a mess

Check in was a disaster. An hour waiting in line as there are only 5 parking spaces for loading/unloading. Also once done you cannot easily turn around and have to make 5-7 point turns to go back down the drive. Also no ski equipment is allowed inside the building. There is a storage room with outdated and broken ski lockers but only takes quarters and there is no quarter machine. Everything else about our stay was fantastic. Beautiful views quiet rooms, well stocked with utensils linens and toiletries. Very clean and well decorated. I have 0 complaints about the unit itself.
