About this property

Charming home on Sugar Mountain with stream

Bigfoot's Creek is a quaint home on Sugar Mountain. A very unique property with a stream running under the front deck and a private gazebo in the sideyard. Truly a home for the outdoor lover with a wooded yard, streams, bridges, and a large deck with a gas firepit. Enter the home and walk into an open-concept living room/kitchen. The ambiance is set by the high tongue and groove ceilings, exposed beams, and large windows. The kitchen area is fully furnished and offers stainless steel appliances. With 5 bedrooms, there is plenty of sleeping space. The master bedroom has a king bed with an ensuite bath and a private deck entrance. There are four guest bedrooms, two with queen beds and two with bunk beds. There are 2 1/2 baths. The owner has stocked the home with plenty of board games to play when you are ready to come inside from your outdoor activities, and has added air conditioning.
Bigfoot's Creek is close to all the amenities that the mountain offers. In less than a 2-mile drive, you can go skiing, tubing, ice skating, golfing, tennis, biking, gem mining, mountain coaster, restaurants, shopping, and more.

This house was in a great location , however we would not stay again . We shared this space with two other couples . The bed space was limited . The host advertised two queen beds and one was clearly a double bed . Even upon leaving we found the sheets said double on them . We also found all beds to be very uncomfortable. The house was not clean , there was evidence of water damage throughout. The kitchen was well stocked and the creek under the house was very nice . There is a wood burning fireplace . You must provide the wood . Overall we had a great time but the beds certainly need to be replaced and the couch was broken as well .

This house is in a great location by a creek. We appreciate your helpful comments. The house has one king bed, two queen beds, and 2 sets of bunk beds. We realize that everyone has a different opinion about comfortable beds, and it is difficult to please everyone. This house has a variety of beds. We are sorry that you thought the house was not clean. We did have it cleaned and inspected before your arrival. We will certainly check on the couch. In the future, we have other locations available that we can help you with if you choose to come back to Sugar Mountain.

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.

Location was great - especially if you ski. We were there in the summer and very nice hilly area. Property is a bit worn and not super clean. The lighting is terrible, cabinet fronts fell off (they repaired them), AC units very loud and ineffective in some rooms, bring your own kitchen utensils as the ones provided are very cheap. Property managers responsive but you can only do so much with a worn out property that hasn’t been well maintained.

Thank you for your helpful comments. This property is in a great location with a stream in front. The new owners are working on updates to the house. We did fix two drawer fronts that had come loose. No other cabinet fronts were found to be falling off. We will check on the utensils, but many were replaced last year. As property managers, we strive to help our guests enjoy their stay as much as possible.

Everything was perfect. I would suggest the Owner add a more detail description of the properties amenities. We took our own grill cause one wasn’t listed and there was one at the property. As well as list out that there is a coffee maker and a keurig. We didn’t know so we couldn’t buy coffee prior to going to the house and then having to leave again. Mattresses in the rooms need to be replaced. The master was comfortable but the other beds had complaints. Over all it’s a beautiful cabin located in a very good location. It’s close to a lot of activities in the area and a close drive to towns near by.

Great ski trip

We took the kids up to Sugar Mountain for a few days to ski/snowboard right before Christmas and the house was a perfect place for us to stay. So close to the mountain and so convenient. We had a great time. Just wished the kitchen would have been stocked with a few more cooking items (no sheet pans or cookie sheets) but that didn’t stop us from having a great time!

Close to Sugar Mountain Sking

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: As stated in several reviews the house is older. There was more than enough room for our family of 8. The heating worked well!! It was cold outside. Kitchen was well stocked. Views were gorgeous. There were games and books for downtime. A few issues. The repairs made seemed shoddy. The water in the master shower never got above lukewarm. The master patio nor the side door locked. I would recommend bringing a bag of ice as there were only ice trays. We also wanted to use the gas fire pit on the porch and called on friday to have it replaced as it was empty. When we left on Tuesday they still had not replaced it. We loved how close we were to the ski lodge. I will recommend renting your gear elsewhere as Sugar Mountain customer service leaves a lot to be desired.
