Great, warm mountain stay with a view

The kids loved the house, couch and beds were very comfortable, heaters worked great, dishes/cooking utensils/etc. were well stocked. All around a great place to stay. Do just keep an eye on winter weather when you are there if you don't have snow tires/chains as the driveway is a bit steep if it gets icy.

Perfect home for our family of 5 with grown children. Plenty of room and comfortable for all. Everyone slept great in the beds. Felt like home as the owner provided all basic necessities and more. Very welcoming. Gorgeous view and so peaceful.

We had a great couple of days skiing/snowboarding at Sugar while staying at this home. It has a beautiful view. It was clean and comfortable. Virginia is great with communication. I would highly recommend. It is everything you would want in a home away from home!

Great views from the deck

House was clean and as listed. Road getting to the cabin can be a little precarious at night for a visitor unfamiliar with the area. Check in was easy enough. Tons of wildlife around. The location was great and our family of 5 had plenty of room. We would absolutely stay here again.

New Year's Ski Getaway

We arrived at the property and found everything was as listed and more! The home was neat and clean which was a nice first impression when entering. It was thoughtfully decorated and provided a comfortable space for us to relax after a full day of skiing. You could tell the owner spent time anticipating guests needs by providing very clear instructions for the many amenities in the house as well as a complete guide to the area. The location of the home and view of mountains must be seen in person to be appreciated. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back!
