Enjoyed our stay, with no issues. Internet was spotty, but we were there during a hurricane so that is to be expected. Condo is older, but was very clean.

Close to the slopes but very quiet. Sad to see all the damage from the hurricane but other than the parking congestion the property was fine. Nice rental, I’d rent this property again.

Nice Place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a nice quaint place. Perfect t to crash after snowboarding all day. Kitchen was small but perfect size for what we were doing. Place was clean, beds comfy. Washer and dryer are such a nice touch to have. Very close to slopes and although we didn’t walk, i believe you can. Only issue is that the walk down to the door is super super hard when it’s snowed over and ice. There’s no salt in the place to help salt the stairs. If you’re older (unstable, easily fall) and going during a winter storm, I’d sadly say this isnt the place for you. We made it down and up each time but rather questionable.
Response from VrboOwner on 28 March 2026
Thank you for choosing Sugar Mountain! We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay and appreciate all of your generous and helpful comments. We are sorry about the steps. Unfortunately, we cannot use salt close to the slopes. Please come again!

It was a weekend away

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The numbering system has always been poor, but after some hunting we found the unit. Having no hot water was another issue. A few hours later we got a return call and found the value. The unit is older, the wifi (and TV) were spotty, and the 2 forks isn't enough. It was okay for what we needed which was a place to sleep and shower.

As Advertised!

This is not the fanciest of places but it was clean, comfortable and inexpensive. A little old fashioned by today's standards but you do have to go by the management company office to pick up a key - not a big deal though as it's pretty close to where the property is located. The only real negatives I have to say about the property is the lighting in the bedroom upstairs is awful with one of the lamps acting like it was on a timer and would turn off periodically, the frying pan needs to be replaced as it has some sort of blue substance all over it and the parking kind of turns into the wild west! Apparently no one cares about parking in their designated spots.. All in all thoughm I would stay here again.

Thank you for your feedback, We will let the owners know about the suggested update for lighting, decor and kitchen utilities. The light is on a sensor which is why it would periodically go on and off. Overall we hope you enjoyed your stay and look forward to hosting you again in a near future. -RRR Team

decent place to stay

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Steps were pretty rough getting down to the unit. I can only imagine if they were covered in snow. Spiral staircase inside was pretty rough too. Kids were scared to go up and down it. Otherwise, it was a great place. The units could be marked better. It took us a while to figure it out. Getting to and from the shuttle bus wasn't easy carrying skis and poles and in ski boots. Kids struggled with that.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 February 2024
We will pass your comments along to the homeowner about the sets of steps. We do try to keep them shoveled in the winter when it snows. Unfortunately, carrying ski equipment can be cumbersome. The shuttle is a free service organized by the Village of Sugar Mountain and we have no control over their routes/stops. We would welcome an email addressing the concerns with the property manager rating so we can work to improve our service. Thank you for recommending the unit and we look forward to your next visit.

New Year's Eve at Sugar

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect location, walk to the slopes. We've been coming and staying at different units in the Timbers for the last six years. This unit was great. It seems as if the kitchen was recently renovated, which was very nice, but dark with only one dim light in the ceiling. We were able to move a lamp from another location onto the kitchen . The only thing that we felt was missing was a coffee table for games and puzzles etc. There is a very large kitchen counter, but there is no table for eating so a coffee table would've been nice. The only issue was the fireplace pilot light did not stay lit. I called after hours and they sent a very nice man over who said there was a part that was cracked that was preventing it from staying lit and that the owner would be contacted so they could send someone out to replace the part as soon as possible. Luckily he was able to rig it somehow so that it stayed on temporarily because the temperature dropped to 13° that night. He said it could go off at any time but luckily it stayed on. Nobody ever came and they didn't call us and let us know anything. Hopefully they were able to get that fixed for the next tenants. We would definitely come again!

Thank you for choosing Sugar Mountain! We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay! We are very sorry about the pilot light but we are so glad they was able to get it fixed enough to work for you! Thank you for all of your compliments and helpful comments! Please come again soon!

4/10 Poor

Liked: Location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication

Poor communication, broken stuff, updates needed

Had no communication from the agency or owner until around 2:00 on day of check in, and I initiated it. Asked if unit might be ready early and they said yes! So we got there and received no code by 4. I had to call 3 times to finally receive the code by about 4:35. Just not at all what you’re looking for after skiing all day, with three kids, etc. they said they had 58 check ins that day which I understand but the reservation is for 4pm. Once inside, greeted with a dishwasher broken sign and instructions to hand wash dishes. Great but there’s no dishwashing soap (makes you wonder about cleanliness of dishes we had to eat off of). Tv situation is terrible. Really old “smart” tv in living room. Couldn’t add YouTube tv or any other app to it. TVs are like 200 now. Updating would be easy. Broken closet door downstairs barely concealing wadded up old blankets and pillows. Trash and food behind furniture in bedrooms. Leaky faucets. Bathroom in need of serious repair. I imagine it’s tough to keep these places nIce with all the snow and ice being tracked in. We were super careful and luckily I keep beach towels in my truck that we put down. But if you’re going to own and rent these units you have to keep them up. I would skip this one if I were looking to rent at Sugar, and I don’t normally do that to owners of rentals.

Timbers E13

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very good stay. Would recommend adding a toaster to kitchen appliances. The house had a damp aroma which affected my allergies - not sure that could be helped. Other than that, everything was good!!! Very accommodating for our needs.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We booked two condos side by side, paid in full months prior to arriving, only to find the largest condo had been sold and rented to someone else. My family ended up being 10 minutes apart, which was not convenient or what we paid for. Timbers 13 was extremely nasty, we had no TV remote for the first 24 hours we were there. I would NEVER recommend this property or rental agency to anyone.

Small gem

The Timber’s were nice, the only complaint is the parking. We were told two cars would fit and it was a chore to find a space. Everything else was as advertised!
