This is the most beautiful and relaxing cabin. It was such a nice place to stay. We had a wonderful time here. The property is absolutely beautiful and getting to see all the wildlife everyday was amazing. We had 7 people and a small little dog and we all had plenty of room and so much fun. The cabin is located in a very good spot for just about anything you want to do.

Thank you for choosing Sugar Mountain. We are sorry for the mice issues. This unit is regularly treated by pest control, and it was inspected before and after your visit, but no signs of mice were found. We will treat the house and keep check on this. The A/C unit was checked and was working when maintenance did a work order. Again, we apologize for the issues.

The house looked nice but most of the interior doors did not latch and the there was mold in the baseboards of the bathroom. We shared the house with another family and it had plenty of space. Some of the beds were pretty uncomfortable but there was plenty of space for 10 people.

This house was in a good location for our needs. We enjoyed the house, but have a few suggestions. One - include coffee filters. Our normal filters did not fit your machine. Two - several of the doors need adjustments. They either were very hard to open/close or they would not stay closed. Three - living room area is very dark. Different lighting might help. Other than those minor things, we enjoyed our stay very much.

Great location

We really enjoyed our stay. The stream out front was beautiful and our kids enjoyed playing around it while we were there. The house was comfortable with lots of games and puzzles and the location was awesome. Very central and close to all the things we wanted to do and see. The house could stand a little updating/love with the master shower being tricky and just some chipping paint and wear around the house but all of that was quite minor. We would happily stay again.

We had a great time! The house was tiny but somehow still had plenty of room for all 10 of us! The squirrel that hangs on a swing in the kitchen was the highlight of the weekend.
