I loved my stay here! The building is a little old and very humble, but it was absolutely perfect for my two-night ski trip. Love the gorgeous little kitchen and had very friendly and helpful communication with the property manager when I could not find the WiFi password. Will book again!

Great Location, Subpar Facilities

On the positive side, the location is perfect for skiing Sugar Mountain. You can easily walk to the mountain. The apartment is cute with a nice patio and a pretty nice view. However, there were a few issues the facilities. Firstly, the glasses, plates and dishes were pretty gross. There was literally pieces of cheese stuck to plates and lettuce on bowls. The toilet was leaking, so we had to stuff towels around the base so it didn't leak into the hall. WIFI was pretty bad and disconnected every 30 minutes or so, so you have to keep logging in if you want to stay connected. Also, the baseboard heating didn't really kick in for about 10 hours, although we had cranked the heat to the maximum. So the first night, we had to go out and buy firewood for the fireplace so we didn't freeze. I'm not exaggerating. It was probably 55 degrees until we started the fire. Day two and three it was totally fine. Not sure why it didn't get going the first night. Lastly, the build quality of the complex is pretty cheap, so you can also hear every creak and footstep in the above apartment, so we lost quite a bit of sleep with neighbors walking around at 3 a.m. I think 3/5 stars is fair, perhaps generous. With a lot more effort on Vacasa's end, this place could be a 4/5.

Long Weekend

The property is in a great location! You can be in Boone, Blowing Rock, Linville, etc. in about 30 minutes. Great places to eat in Beach Mountain. Loved our trip to Grandfather Mountain and Linville Caverns. We would stay here again and defiantly recommend this property.
