About this property

Located on Sugar Mountain in the highly desired Bee Branch location. Slopeside 2 story condo. Walk to slopes, lifts, ticket booth, ski school, and ski lodge. It’s about a five minute walk to the first ski lift. Completely renovated with an open and spacious floor plan. Vaulted ceilings with gorgeous views of Grandfather Mountain directly from the balcony. Overlooks the ski slopes below along with a tranquil running mountain stream. Sleeps 8 with 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths. The upstairs spacious BR has 2 full beds and a private bath. 2 downstairs BR's have a king bed in each. Spacious fully renovated and well-stocked kitchen with updated appliances and farm table that seats up to 10. TV in every room, WiFi, surround sound speaker in the living room, washer and dryer in condo, outdoor grilling area. No Smoking. Home is not childproof-children must be monitored at all times. There is one set of stairs in the condo without a baby gate, no childproof locks on cabinets or windows.

If you're staying on Sugar to ski, you are just a few steps away from the slopes, lifts, ticket booth, ski school, rentals, and ski lodge. If you are a beginner skier or have kids that are learning to ski or snowboard, this is a highly desired location as it is closer to the base of the mountain on “Easy Street” green trail (not leaving you at the top of the mountain on a more advanced trail).

No need to drive anywhere if you are looking to ski, ice skate, snow tube, go downhill mountain biking, play tennis or golf as this is all right on Sugar within waking distance from the condo.

Weekend, family ski trip

We had a great stay! Condo was perfect for our family of five including children aged 1, 4, and 7, as well as the kids’ grandmother. Everything was just as pictured/described. Very easy access to Sugar Mountain resort. We would definitely stay here again.

Can't Beat the Location

This was our third year coming to Sugar Mountain, but the first time staying Bee Branch. Even though the other places we stayed were close by, there was nothing better than being able to ski to the slopes or walk to buy tickets. It was also great to be able to come back to the condo for lunch, rest, etc. The condo is a standard rental on Sugar Mountain. The inside has been updated, its clean, and the beds are comfortable. The location is what makes the property a 5-star place to stay.
