Sugar Mountain Sugar Shack - Mountain Cabin, Gas Logs, Outdoor Space

Bed Configuration:  Queen (Primary Bedroom, Main Floor), Queen (Guest Bedroom, Upstairs Open Loft), Sleeps 4

Description: Located just minutes from Sugar Mountain, the Sugar Shack is a delightful mountain log cabin nestled in the heart of Banner Elk. This charming home features two bedrooms and one bath, comfortably accommodating up to four guests.

Step inside to discover a spacious, open living room and kitchen with vaulted ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops. After a day of skiing, unwind by the cozy gas logs or prepare a delicious meal in the well-appointed kitchen. The adjoining dining room offers ample seating and classic mountain decor, providing the perfect setting for family dinners or game nights with loved ones.

Retreat to one of the two queen-size beds for a peaceful night's sleep—one located in the main floor primary bedroom and the other in the open loft upstairs. Outside, two covered porch areas beckon with rocking chairs, a porch swing, and a dining table, inviting you to soak in the spectacular mountain scenery and fresh air. An additional table and chairs on an open patio, adorned with hanging lights, create a magical outdoor ambiance for unforgettable evenings under the stars.

Location: This log cabin is located in the heart of Banner Elk, just minutes from Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, and only 10-15 minutes to Boone and Valle Crucis and approximately 30 minutes to Blowing Rock. The convenient location makes it just minutes away from all the High Country’s most famous attractions such as the Blue Ridge Parkway, Tweetsie Railroad, Grandfather Mountain, Linville Falls and Caverns, and Appalachian State University.  If you are looking for winter sports there are several different options from Hawksnest Snow Tubing, Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, Beech Mountain Ski Resort, and Appalachian Ski Resort. Relax and enjoy the slow pace of the mountains and the fresh air or be adventurous and go hiking, fishing, biking, or sight-seeing. Some other things people enjoy are shopping, antiquing, skiing, golfing and miniature golfing, ziplining, go-karts, and gem mining.

Great location!

We couldn't have asked for a better location. The house is so close to the Wilderness Alpine Coaster, Gem Mining, downtown Boone - and our main event The Land of OZ. I think this is the perfect for a family with 1-2 small children, or 2 adults. Great stay!

Super Great Stay

We have been traveling for approximately 18 months and have stayed at numerous locations both in the US and abroad. This stay was by far the best. The owner was responsive and Foscoe management provided outstanding service and support. Very proactive and quick. We will definitely be staying at the Sugar Shack and/or use properties managed by Foscoe again. Thank you so much for providing a wonderful stay!!

Great comfy little place. Great Location. Observations:- Bed Sheets: fitted sheet not exactly, prob need new.- Bath Towels: prob need new, had a mildew smell.- Shower Curtain: same as towels- Ironing board was damaged (legs) as if someone tried to close at some point and didn’t understand how to and tried to force close.Door side glass: every other door/window had blinds but this one, negates complete privacy especially at the entry way and having neighbors up and next door.Exterior French doors: Needs to be fixed for security measures. Can just push open from the outside with little force.

While the cabin itself was exactly as described, we chose it exclusively for the gas fireplace! We visited on an extremely cold weekend complete with snow! The fireplace worked the evening we arrived and ran out of gas the following morning. Assuming making sure the propane tank will accommodate a three night, four day stay would be the responsibility of the management company. However, the owners were allegedly notified, but we haven’t heard anything from them either. Minimal utensils (only 4 forks total) and the shower curtain was missing three of the hooks, enabling it to be closed so you had to hold it closed while trying to shower so as not to soak the floor.This could be an awesome place to stay, but the lack of attention to detail is why we give it 2 stars.I always hesitate to give a negative review, but if they don’t know the truth, they can’t fix the problem. We were very disappointed with our stay.

Cozy cabin- Highly recommend

This cabin was exactly as described. So cute and comfy. The location-fantastic. Easy access to both Sugar, Grandfather, and Beech Mountains. Awesome points- Fireplace was easy to work and with our FL family, my kids wanted it on nearly every moment we were in the house. The porch was great with gorgeous views. The kitchen had nearly everything we needed and it was very clean and easy to use. The linens were really comfy and so were the beds. The door lock was easy to operate. The loft was adorable. Ceiling height was a bit of a challenge for my 6'2" teenager but short folks would not have an issue. Haha. Points to note if you book- the entrance to the street is basically a secret passage through the woods. Nearly hidden in the dark when we arrived. When the lights are out, the cabin is difficult to locate so if you can arrive while the sun is up, do so. We found it after a few minutes and my minivan didnt have an issue getting up the driveway. Had it been snowy that might have different. There wasnt a cookie sheet in the cabin so making quick frozen things like chicken nuggets for the kids took creativity but that could be easily remedied. There is not a lot of insulation between the loft and the downstairs bedroom so privacy between the two bedrooms should not be expected. Its not a problem, just something to note. All these things are minor and we would definitely rent this cabin again and recommend it for others!

Wonderful cabin at a great location!

We truly loved our stay at this cabin at Banner Elk. The cabin itself is both cozy and picturesque. It was the perfect place to stay in with family during a snowstorm. There’s enough space to play board games as well as read books by the fire. It is also located centrally. It took us only about 5 minutes to drive to Sugar Mountain Resort to ski and the restaurants and ski rentals are also a few minutes away. All in all, a lovely stay and would definitely rent again in the future. We gave the check-in process a 4 because it was difficult to find the cabin if arriving at dark, but this could easily be remedied by leaving some lights on on arrival day. Foscoe Rentals was easy to work with - they provided plenty of information for a smooth check in and check out and it was easy to reach them when we had a question.
