Squirrel's Leap: Walk to Sugar Mtn slopes & golf, then enjoy the outside fireplace!
Experience Squirrel's Leap! This beautiful log cabin is located just below the Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, so during winter you won't have to drive to the slopes. In summer, enjoy easy access to the public Sugar Mountain golf course. The main floor has everything you need, with the primary King suite just off the den, a stone gas fireplace, a well-equipped kitchen with granite countertops, and a guest bedroom with a full bath and loft. The lower level has an additional den, a third guest room, a full bath, and a garage.
Outside, relax on the lovely covered porch or enjoy the custom-built outdoor wood burning stone fireplace. The lot has a babbling brook bordering the property on two sides with the gorgeous natural mountain landscape surrounding it.
This property is conveniently located so close to everything Sugar Mountain and Banner Elk features, and is close to grocery, dining, summer theater, and all the High Country has to offer. Make Squirrel's Leap your new home away from home today!
Please note that this property absolutely does not permit pets anywhere in or on the premises at any time including outdoor spaces.

There are enough of these items for one night, or maybe two. We do not provide hair dryers. Towels and linens will be provided

- Street access to this home is well-maintained and paved, and the home has a gravel parking area. Due to the elevation, travelers visiting during the winter months where inclement weather may be possible should come prepared with an AWD or 4WD vehicle, and chains may also be required if it snows.
