NOTE: Due to the recent devastation from hurricane Helene, the walk to the slopes is limited. Only one bridge across the creek from our condo to the ski slopes is usable. It comes out at the base of the mountain near the child care center. While it is walkable, itâs not advisable with ski boots and all your gear. From our condo, you would head left (facing the building) down the trail behind our development. Weâll update this message as the situation changes. This condo is in the Hemlock Nob complex adjacent to the Magic Carpet area at the base of the Sugar Mountain ski resort. Listen to the year round creek that runs nearby down the mountain. Ski slopes are easy to reach with a short walk. Ample parking is available. This unit sleeps 8 and has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms plus a loft with twin beds. Kitchen and bathrooms have been recently remodeled. In addition to great skiing, Sugar Mountain and Banner Elk are great destinations any time of the year with plenty of hiking and mountain biking trails as well as many great area restaurants. Grandfather Mountain and the Blue Ridge Parkway are just a few miles away.
Our family had a wonderful stay here for a pre-Christmas ski getaway. We had four adults and four kids (ages 6â11), and the location couldnât have been better. Being just a short walk to the slopes was a total game changerâit made it so easy to bring the kids back for hot cocoa and a quick recharge during the day. Check-in was a breeze, and communication with the property owner was fast, easy, and very helpful throughout our stay. Weâd absolutely love to stay here again if itâs available on future trips!
