Wonderful stay! We really enjoyed our time at Sweet Retreat. Owner was extremely friendly and responsive and the chalet had everything we could possibly need. It is beautifully decorated with nice upgraded bathrooms and skylights for natural lighting. Great view from balcony. Kitchen has very nice appliances. I liked that it was high enough up for a beautiful view but not so high up that driving up to it would make your stomach turn. Very private at a dead end road. Quick access to Sugar Mountain and other nearby towns like Banner Elk, Beech Mountain. We hope to be back soon!

This is a beautiful condo with plenty of space. It has gorgeous views and close proximity to Sugar Mountain, just a short drive down the hill. It's about 30 minutes away from Blowing Rock and a similar drive to Boone. The deck view is fantastic. We didn't cook in the kitchen, but it appears to have all the necessary items. Bathrooms were adequately stocked with nice towels and washclothes. The beds and pillows were comfortable. I would definitely stay again at the rental.

Great Sugar Trip

This property was perfect for a quick weekend ski trip. You can walk down to the ski slopes if you want or it is a very short drive. House is very clean and well appointed.

Great location for ski access

This house is a 2 minute drive to the Sugar Mountain ski center so you can be on the slopes quickly, and you can easily go “home” to eat or rest during the day. If you want to be in the middle of winter sport action (skiing/tubing/skating) this a great property. Some people may not appreciate the lights, noise, and nightly machine maintenance that go along with being slope side but we loved it. The house is large and easily accommodated our family of 6. The furniture/decor is comfortable and practical for groups with plenty of room to store your skis and boots. The host was quick to respond to the questions we had throughout our stay. We will def rent this property again in the future.

Relaxing Retreat

Very nice home. Beautiful views and gracious/communicative hostess. Easy access to hiking and other activities. Comfortable home with plenty of amenities. Great neighborhood for morning and afternoon dog walks. Very quiet, but when music is playing at the ski resort, you can sit out on the deck and enjoy the music.
