The location was ideal for a weekend of skiing fun at Sugar! We loved the location and can't wait to return! Kitchen was well stocked and bedrooms were all comfy.

In the first day, we found there are two fresh food stains on the bedsheet and one blood stain on the bed cover. I contacted the Vacasa representative right away. She put a ticket of my requirement of changing bedsheets but no local person answered that ticket. No one contacted me or came to change the bedsheets. Other than that, the house itself was great.
4.3
We really enjoyed our stay, the place was so cute and clean. We were close to the snow activities so made it easy to drive down to the slopes to ski and we were back home quickly after a long day. Vacasa was helpful and attentive and fixed a hot water problem immediately. We will definitely come back!

The condo was great. We had a few problems that were quickly addressed. The dishwasher did not work, but instead of having someone come out to look at it, we washed the dishes by hand. A dining room chair was missing but it was replaced with a folding card chair. The handle to the main door broke off, but it was replaced. Overall, it was a great little cozy cottage!

I came with my son, his wife, and my two of my grandchildren. It was a gift to my 7 year old grandson who wanted to learn how to snowboard, he did really well btw. The place was clean and the perfect distance from Sugar Mountain Resort. I don't ski so it was easy for me to drop them off and come back for a rest. We all really enjoyed the convenience and the view..

This condo was well kept and cozy. Loved the wood burning fireplace. There’s a spacious deck with incredible views of the mountain. East access to sugar mountain for skiing. Private master on the top floor. Very comfortable stay. Would highly recommend.
4.3
Condo needs some updates- location reported is not accurate. The condo is not 0.2 miles away from the entrance of sugar mountain ski resort. Location is up in the mountains which is ok, if you know that’s what to expect, and if you arrive during a snow storm with a 4-wheel vehicle.
4.3
This condo was so stripped down with no extra towels (not even enough for the number of heads listed to sleep there), no extra pillows or blankets in the freezing winter. The windows were drafty and the cleaning was subpar.
When I reached out to the listing team, they asked me to be patient with them - but never responded. Refund will be requested.

The view from this condo was beautiful!

Great view, nice remodel. Permanent downstairs neighbors are noisy with television at all hours.
Deck furniture is broken in places. Otherwise, great place.
4.3
Great location, amazing views and close to many things to do!
4.3
The only negative was the living room furniture. The couch was terrible. The view is spectacular, and we love the cool breeze. Being close to town was very convenient.
Under the furniture needs cleaning.
4.3
The condo was nice except for no airconditioning.

We had high expectations from this property. Unfortunately, we were let down. The view is amazing but everything else needs improvement. I have taken pictures of floor boards sticking out in the balcony (trip hazard), broken window handles, undisturbed spiderwebs over coffee mugs, used coffee filter still left in the coffee maker, dead bug in the closet, and many more issues that we spotted as we stayed at the property. After we checked in, the property manager called us to ask about everything. At that time, we had only spotted the broken window handles that prevented us from opening and closing the windows in the children’s room. When I mentioned that, they said that they knew about it and had ordered the parts. So, you are renting a property with three rooms and one of those rooms has no access to air. You know that. Still, instead of foregoing the profit for a few days’ rent and fixing up the property, you go ahead and rent it out anyway. I didn’t like that. As far as cleaning and accommodations, I think the view has been towards the bare minimum. Example: We had to buy some good toilet paper and that’s what we use during our stay. Oh and be aware that the toilet bowls are VERY small; so, Kim K cannot stay here. Sorry Kim. Overall, we enjoyed the view and the fresh air, when we could have it. Unfortunately, we would not come back to this property. My suggestion would be to take the place off the rental market for a period, fix it up, really deep clean, and get rid of all the old/smelly furniture that no one will use but bring the value of the place down (ex. that greenish chest of drawers in the downstairs queen bedroom that smells of stale urine and the cream closet upstairs with the dead bug inside). I hope that is helpful. I tried to be honest. I hope I wasn’t harsh.

We don’t usually leave negative reviews because we expect some issues in vacation homes. However, I felt we needed to post this. The condo has a great view and is generally very nice; however, there were several important negatives:
1. Deceptive Pricing: We booked this condo for 8 nights based on the original quote that was posted. When we started booking, the price jumped to twice as much as the original price, and by the end, after fees and taxes, it jumped to 4x the original quoted price. Since we were desperate for a vacation, we decided to go ahead and book, but we expected a great condo after spending so much for the week. Besides the “bait and switch” pricing, the negatives were as follows:
2. Washer: The washer was full of black mold and could not be used. We called several times and the maintenance man tried to clean it, but he said it would probably need a replacement gasket because the mold was so bad. Vacasa/VRBO gave us a small rebate, but I had to spend Christmas day at the coin laundromat.
3. Amenities: The amenities were VERY cheap. The toilet paper and paper towels were terrible; we ended up buying our own. The pans and utensils were also very flimsy and hard to use (nonstick stuck, etc.) The sink stopper did not work (again, very cheap). We were supplied with one set of towels for each person (no extras) and there were not enough pillows for all the beds. We had to buy our own pillows. Also, the upstairs shower had very poor water pressure, so we all used the same shower on the lower floor.
4. Cleaning: One of the pillows in the closet had a large blood stain on it and the shower curtain had mold stains all over the bottom.
Overall, the issues seem to be with the Vacasa service – for the price, they should provide better quality amenities and assure a clean condo. I don’t think we will be booking a Vacasa home again.

The home was comfortable and well decorated. The kitchen had everything we needed to make breakfast and dinner and, if the weather was appropriate, the fireplace would have been a great addition to the weekend. Just Lovely.

We loved the property! It was wonderful, well stocked and very clean! We had to call and email several times to get our identity “verified” by the management company since the online process did not work. I highly recommend the property, but would go out of my way to stay at property that did not use Vacasa as a management company next time.
