We rented this condo for our son's 30th 'golf' birthday weekend with his uncles and cousin. There was no negatives about the owner and the condo - PERFECT! A great time had by all at this condo, the Sugarloaf Golf Course, The Rack, The Bag & Kettle and 45 North. We do advise if you go in the summer to bring fans as the weekend was hot and humid even for Maine. Thank you Chris and Lauren!!

Lifts are a short walk or can be reached by a shuttle that ran every 30 minutes. We could see the slopes from the unit, which was fun. The unit was snug and the kitchen was highly functional. Good group seating area in the living room space.

Chris and Lauren are wonderful hosts. We look forward to renting this unit again in the future!

No misconceptions on the property. Very good N.E. ski in/ski out accommodation. It was very clean, warm and comfortable. I would definitely recommend it to others.

The condo is located in a great location. It has a ski locker on the main entrance so you don't have to take your skis up steps. Plenty of hooks to hang up your snow gear. The kitchen is fully stocked! The family room area is cozy with a wonderful view of the ski mountain. Minutes from everything. I hope to go back in the future. Christopher was a great communicator!!

We stayed at Chris’ place for the Sugarloaf Marathon weekend and had a really great time. It is easy to walk everywhere on the mountain and was comfortable for 4 adults, and could have easily fit more!

Our group of 8 had a great time. Plenty of hiking trails around. The coast is about a 2 1/2 to 3 hour drive. The outdoor center near is a little outrageous on their prices for pool/ hot tub usages. All in all a great stay during nonpeak times.

Very pleasant stay in Sugarloaf
Our family consisted of four adults and two children ages 8 and 10. We spent 2 nights in this lovely condo and had a wonderful stay. The owner communicated right away when I had a question about the parking pass. Overall the condo was very nice. It's a little dated, but we could tell the owners have partially renovated it. This did not detract from the comfort though! The only problem with the layout is that both adult rooms share a bathroom while the kids' bunk room had its own facilities. In order for my sister and her husband not to feel awkward sharing a bathroom with us, they had to trek up two flights of stairs to use the bathroom with their kids. This wasn't a huge deal but might have gotten old with a longer stay. The downstairs bathroom needed a quick spritzer before we used the shower, and I dug around for two light bulbs for the upstairs bathroom which needed replacing. Otherwise everything was spot on.
One of the other condo owners had rented their unit to what seemed like a college fraternity who were having a party the night we arrived. We could hear them well into the night which was a little aggravating. Obviously this was out of the control of the owners of this condo. Otherwise there didn't seem to be anyone staying in the other units. The college guys left the next day so it was quiet our second night. We could walk through the tall grass up a short hill behind the condo to one of the Sugarloaf parking areas from which it was a short walk to the base area. Sadly there were hardly any people at the resort, and the scenic lift rides were not operational. We hiked up one of the ski runs and had lunch at a small tavern at the base. Our stay was very enjoyable. Thank you to the owners for allowing us to share your home even if briefly!

We arrived at the condo to find it very dirty. There were fruit loops on the floor, tissues or napkins under the coach, the kitchen floor was sticky and the downstairs bathroom was gross. There was also a lot of food and alcohol from a previous guest left behind. Two points of caution for future guests. 1. There is no air conditioning. It was stifling hot even with the windows open. 2. Make sure to buy the insurance. We were grateful we did. The owner made a claim for insurance claiming an alleged stain on the couch (we have lots of pictures with no evidence of a stain) and a broken coffee table. We actually felt like we left the condo in better condition than we found it! Fortunately, the we had the insurance in place! Despite our disappointment, we had a great weekend. The location is perfect for recreation in all seasons !

5 of us stayed at this property for a friends wedding at the resort. It was spacious, clean, and super cozy. We all commented on how peaceful it was there and how we all felt at home. Would absolutely recommend this to friends and family!

I’ve been renting at Sugarloaf for nearly 20 years and the Birchwood condos are consistently my favorite, and this top-floor unit is top-notch. Perfect on-mountain location, tons of timber frame charm, and plenty of open living space. Owners were easy to deal with and check in/check out was seamless. I’ll be back.

I planned a girls trip and we were all happy with the condo. It was clean and the right amount of space for everyone. We were able to enjoy some shopping and eat out at their local breakfast and restaurant. In all we are looking forward to vacation here in the future

Great place with easy access to slopes
My girlfriends and I and a short walk across a parking lot to hit the a green to the Snubber Lift, which takes you to the main base area. The access path is also right across the trail from the Sugarloaf Inn, do it’s quite convenient to sit outside for an apres ski drink at the Shipyard Brrew Haus at the end of the day.
The condo itself was charming, spacious and cozy, and the hosts were super responsive and helpful.

This property was a joy! It’s really just a short climb to the third floor. Parking was a breeze and very close! To ski out, it was just a short walk down the road to the trail. It was quiet, peaceful and relaxing. The kitchen had quality cookware and left very little to be desired.(only one thing we could have used was a colander to strain pasta, but that’s minor!) we would have made nice use of the fireplace but didn't think to bring wood, so I’d recommend folks to pack some! The bed rooms were spacious, and open concept up in the main floor with views of the mountains is everything a person could ask for on a ski trip! Chris was also very responsive to messages which was fantastic! We would for sure stay here again!

Lovely and Clean!
Really enjoyed the stay at the condo. We got some extra exercise getting up to the top floor, but it was worth it. The condo was really nice. Getting to the slopes wasn't too difficult, and we appreciated how well kept and clean everything was. Best place we have stayed at in Sugarloaf!
