Staying at the Reserve in 36D

This was a great condo to stay at. it was clean, modern, well equipped, has a fantastic view and very comfortable. The living room was a great place to relax and the bed in the Master Bedroom slept great(we did not use the 2nd bedroom). It was a very nice visit and great condo to stay at.

Almost Perfect

We enjoyed our stay at The Reserve, from the moment we walked in, we felt the condo was very luxurious. Unfortunately, our whole family agreed, that feeling was immediately taken away when it was time for bed. The pillows are flat pancakes, we ended up finding other pancakes in the closest and double stuffing the pillowcases (couldn't find extra linens). The sheets feel cheap and scratchy as well. We feel that a small investment in high quality linens and new pillows could bring this beautiful condo to its full potential. Some maintenance to the porch furniture is needed but didn't limit our ability to enjoy the breath taking view. All in all, we enjoyed our stay, and likely stay again.

So Beautiful!

The views were even better than the photos, unit was clean and so easy to get to the slopes. It's located on the top of the mountain, you just follow a short trail and are at the summit for Sugar Mountain Resort. Apple/ Google Maps will steer you wrong so make sure to follow the instructions that the owner gives you to get to the property. Overall, it was incredibly beautiful and I can't wait to stay again.

Nice place but....

The condo was absolutely beautiful with an amazing view and was easy to find up on top of the mountain. The problem we had is when we turned on the water in both of the showers bugs came out. I reached out to Vacasa who finally sent me a message 12 days (yes days) after my initial inquiry. VERY disappointed with the management company.

Sadly disappointed

When first viewing property, was led to believe the unit was level with parking lot. Not true--two flights of stairs for dragging luggage to unit and back out again when leaving. Several things in the unit did not work, a list was left for housekeeping to deal.

Definitely overpriced

Location is great, condo is as pictured with the exception of couple of moldy spots in the shower. 2 out of the 3 nights it was extremely windy outside and there are huge gaps in sliding glass doors, it was cold and so loud! The wind was just howling. I made a video of just how loud it was. Very hard to sleep for light sleepers like me. Fireplace did not work. We reached out to management & they did agree to help, however it was hard to coordinate as we were out most of the day. To think that we paid $700 a night with all the fees for 2 sleepless nights is sad. I ended up napping at our friends cabin.
