Staying on Sugar Mountain is already a wonderful vacation, but staying right on the slopes with the view and easy ski access makes your family ski trip even better. You can watch the skiers zip by from the balcony with a hot chocolate in hand, or you can step out the door and join them yourself. After a day of shredding the fresh powder, you can thaw back out next to the wood burning fireplace in the living room. This lovely gated community condo has everything you need no matter what season you are here for.

What's nearby:
The surrounding area is full of restaurants and local entertainment, and the mountains offer all kinds of adventures. White water rafting is just a few miles away via High Mountain Expeditions, zoom across the treetops at Hawksnest Ziplining, or catch the breathtaking views walking the Mile High Swinging Bridge. Sugar Mountain Resort is just up the street for ski rentals, ice skating, and golfing.

Th location was awesome! Kids could just walk right to the ski lift, come back to the condo easily for lunch and breaks. Condo set up was great and nice inside. Only downside was that there was no soap (hand soap) and the shower body wash in both showers was empty so really no soap at all. Not a big deal, just what happens I guess when the property is managed by a big company rather than the owner. Overall an awesome place and we would definitely go back!

Great condo and location

We stayed here again because we enjoy the condo and the amenities nearby. The condo is clean, the beds are comfortable, the apartment accessories work, and can easily cool down the entire space with the open windows and cool breeze. The surrounding resort amenities are excellent and seemed more busy this visit. The Internet still drops constantly and you have to keep signing back in which is frustrating but other than that the place is wonderful and well maintained.

We loved the condo. Skiing was absolutely convenient and fantastic from this area. We would rent here again for sure. We had two adults and three kids. My only thing to note is to remember to look for the couch sheets under the lamp table on the far side. ;)

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Communication
The condo location was great (up 3 flights of stairs), convenient (backyard was the lift for Oma’s express) for skiing in/out, and decor inside was nice. However I can’t give it a 4 or 5 as communication was not good (1-2 days delay prior to the trip) and none while we were there, even though we reported a broken light fixture, wet stains on the carpet, dishwasher was still full of dishes, freezer wasn’t clean, and no parking passes noticed (I don’t think it was needed anyways but the instructions given stated we needed it). In addition some pans and several knives need to be replaced (rusty), bathroom sinks drained slowly, and dryer wasn’t very efficient (required multiple cycles so we didn’t attempt to use the washer). So all in all, a few things need to either be fixed or replaced and a response would have been nice to have during our stay. We never used the amenities tag either so can’t comment. Lots of pillows but no extra pillow cases around. Bed was fine. But overall the family enjoyed our time at Sugar Mountain and the condo was fine for 2 nights only.

Nice place and nice stay

This condo is well appointed and clean. The pictures are an accurate reflection of the living areas. The beds are mostly comfortable and the furniture is comfy. The pool and tennis court were nice as well. My only gripe is the Internet which was annoying as you have to keep logging into it so wouldn't recommend for someone trying to work from home. But otherwise the place is great and the location is wonderful. Would stay here again.

We specifically chose this property for the hot tub and indoor pool advertised. We were not given an “access card” and after three calls to Vacasa no response was given and no access to these amenities was received This is Very disappointing.

Pool and gym and sauna is NOT included

False advertising. The pool, gym, and sauna pictures on the listing are NOT included with your stay. I had three very disappointed children. I gave Vacasa a full week to change the listing and they still have not. Buyer beware. As background I called Vacasa 4 times in two days and never once was connected with the local rep. They told me the pool wasn’t open. The pool was open, we followed the directions to get to the pool that was in our check in information from Vacasa and were told at the pool that we needed to talk to Vacasa to get access. Vacasa would not give us access. The condo was as listed and nice, but don’t expect customer service locally or a pool, sauna, and gym.
Response from VrboOwner on 21 June 2023
Margaret, thank you for your honest review, and we are sincerely sorry for the issue you encountered during your visit. We strive to be transparent with the information we provide to our guests, and we indicated in the Vacasa app, to which you have access, that the pool is only open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. We also showed that the community pools are operated at the discretion of the community Homeowners Association (HOA), so the availability schedule may be subject to change without notice. We will continually work with our local staff and homeowner to make necessary upgrades, and we hope we can host you again and impress you better in the future.

WORST VRBO EVER!

I originally ignored some of the bad reviews when booking this unit as I find people tend to complain about everything BUT in this case the reviews are accurate! The unit is nice and in a great location and the positives stop there.. - 3 Door codes provided... none worked... had to stand outside for 45 minutes before someone sent one that worked - Towels had not been provided 5 guests and we got 3 towels 1 hand towel... racks just sitting empty - 3/4 used mini shampoo bottles in the bathrooms - King bed had blood on the sheets and grass in the bed... clearly had not been cleaned/washed - Dishwasher full of dirty and smashed up dishes - all glasses had cracks and chips with sharp edges - No parking passes upon arrive but 4 notifications about getting towed if you don't have one - No pass for the pool/hottub provided -Dirty Floors - limited communication/concern from them when I complained requested assistance/ no replies .. I could go on and on..... this unit was NOT CLEANED before our arrival and no one really bothered to help or fix anything while we were there. I've been trying to obtain a refund for this horrendous BAIT AND SWITCH they have going on since I've gotten back and each person I talk to acts like they have no idea what's going on. Do yourself a favor and skip this one!
