About this property

Breathtaking Mountain View-come enjoy this cozy retreat!

The “Sugar Mountain Retreat” at Sugar Mountain is the perfect mountain get-away! Located just a short walk or drive from the ski slopes of Sugar Mountain Resort & a 15-20 min. drive to Grandfather Mountain and all it has to offer! This 2 bedroom/2 bath condo located within The Reserve comfortably sleeps 4 adults. The living area includes a stacked-stone fireplace as well as year round views of the mountains. A large flat-screened Smart TV with Netflix and cable in the living area for nights you just want to relax inside. Both bedrooms have attached baths and the Master even has deck access and that gorgeous mountain view . Our kitchen is fully stocked with all the appliances you would need to enjoy a meal at home. Kitchen table seats 6 with 3 additional stools at the counter. We even have an Amazon Alexa for your use-music, news, information, etc.
This condo is located at The Reserve, a premier community on Sugar Mountain. Enjoy breathtaking views from 5000 ft. elevation-the mountain ranges seem to go on forever!
Reserve 18D has been decorated with gorgeous furnishings as well as hardwood flooring in the main living area. There is a King bed in the main, a Queen in the guest room and a luxury Queen sleeper sofa in the living room- all complete with linens and comforters. Each bedroom has a flat screen TV with Netflix access in the master. Both bedrooms are attached to a full-size bathroom. The kitchen is fully stocked with spices, coffee maker, stemware, blender, and plenty of cooking supplies. Washer and dryer (with detergent) also available for your use. This condo makes you feel away from it all but still within reach to grocery stores and lots of great restaurants! The 300 sq ft deck also includes tall chairs and a high top table and stools so you can easily enjoy the views-with additional access from the main bedroom. Take in the views while sipping on a glass of wine or simply read a book in the mountain breeze.

The Reserve offers ski slope access just down the road from our condo to the top of Sugar Slalom (recommended for experienced skiers only). Otherwise, it’s just a few minutes' drive to get down to the base of Sugar Mountain. But if skiing isn't for you, just take a quick drive to reach golf, tennis, hiking, rafting, bike trails, gem mining, antiquing, shopping and other nearby attractions. Whatever you choose to do, you can know you will be returning to the comforts of this beautiful mountain condo.

**During the Winter weather months (Nov thru March) a 4WD vehicle or tire chains are highly recommended and may be necessary for getting up the mountain.

Amazing every year

We have been visiting this property for many years and the hosts feel more like long distance friends than hosts by now. Very, very responsive to any issues. Looking forward to another trip next year. Ideal location for a family and the most beautiful sunset you will ever see.

Amazing cabin, location, and experience

This is our second time at this cabin. It's absolutely beautiful, fully stocked, and convenient to the slopes. The views are incredible and the cabin is incredibly clean and truly makes you feel at home. Thank you for such an incredible vacation. We plan to return for a third stay soon. We are grateful and would not choose to stay anywhere else in Sugar Mountain, NC. This cabin is the BEST. Thank you!

Amazing Views!!!!!

Lovely property with spectacular views! Location very centralized to the downtown area. Kitchen was very well stocked, but the ice maker and water did not work on the side by side fridge, perhaps its just not hooked up. Beds were very comfy.

We had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful cabin! It absolutely exceeded all of our expectations. The place is beautiful, the view is incredible, and location is ideal. the owners really outdid themselves with the accommodations. They have thought of everything you and your family may need.

Cozy condo on the top of Sugar Mountain

We arrived following the instructions from Kim and after a quick process to retrieve the key from the box and turn on the heat and water, we settled in for a super comfortable stay. Condo is at 5,000 ft elevation with dramatic long range views, convenient to everything and worth every penny. highly recommend

About the host

Hosted by Kim and John Quilla

Host profile image
We live in Denver, NC with our two sons. We have always loved taking trips to the mountains and are so happy to have found a place we can share with others to enjoy!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the grounds at The Reserve, with the natural landscaping and perfectly placed buildings. The views are top-notch as well as the accessibility to Sugar Mt skiing and Banner Elk. We wanted to find a place that made us feel remote, but was actually close enough to dining, shopping and everything else we love to enjoy! There are so many great restaurants and wineries in the area, and we still keep finding new favorites.

What makes this property unique

Our property is unique because it has so many personal touches that you won't find anywhere else...we take great pride in that!
