Fiddlehead Condominium is nestled alongside the base of Mount Ellen, the North mountain of Sugarbush Ski Area, with a scenic woodland trail connecting directly to the base lodge—a less than 10-minute walk (ski down when snow coverage allows!). The Fiddlehead grounds include a tennis court, seasonal swimming pool, fire pit, and trails for hiking, mountainbiking, and snowshoeing.

This fully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom, main-level condo comfortably accommodates up to 5 guests, ideal for 2 couples or families of 4. The primary bedroom features a king bed with a private en suite bathroom, while the guest room offers a queen bed. An extra-long living room sofa provides flexible sleeping space for a fifth guest, and a twin inflatable mattress available if preferred. All three rooms feature glass sliders opening onto private balconies with wooded mountain views.

Unwind by the cozy gas fireplace after your mountain adventures. Entertainment includes a 55 TV in the living room, BluRay/DVD player with a large movie collection, and complimentary wireless internet. The primary bathroom features a modern rainwater shower, and both bathrooms have supplemental heating for extra comfort. The fully equipped kitchen includes a dishwasher, and the unit has in-unit washer and dryer for your convenience.

AMENITIES & RECREATION: The common area game/recreation room features shuffleboard, ping pong, and foosball tables—perfect for family fun. In winter, soothe tired muscles in the 10-person indoor hot tub and his/hers saunas after skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, or exploring the area. During summer months, the outdoor pool area is ideal for relaxing and cooling off after hiking, mountain biking, golfing, or exploring the Mad River Valley's charming villages and local breweries.

YEAR-ROUND ADVENTURES: While Sugarbush offers world-class winter skiing, summer brings spectacular hiking (Mt Ellen is on the Long Trail), mountain biking on surrounding trails, kayaking, and events like the Mad Marathon, Mountain Music Festival, and Green Mountain Stage Race. The picturesque village of Waitsfield is just minutes away with farm-to-table dining, craft breweries, authentic Vermont shopping, and a classic covered bridge.

    We had a great long weekend in the condo. It was so easy to get out to the slopes and we had everything we needed to cook and relax. The hosts were so quick to respond to our questions, and we would definitely rent again!

    Our kids loved the jacuzzi and the trampoline. The cozy apartment is about an 8 minute walk to the slopes. You can glide down the trail part of the way. On the way home, there is more walking. Alternatively, you can park your car at one of the bases. It's nice not to have to deal with the car though for sure.

    We had a great stay at your Mt. Ellen condo! It was the perfect location for us as we had two ski racers who needed to be on the mountain fairly early. We enjoyed the close proximity to Mt. Ellen, the hot tub and table games in the community building, and the condo was well stocked with everything we needed. Thanks for everything!

    Very nice little apartment walkable to the Mt. Ellen ski slopes. The place was clean and well supplied. The owners were very pleasant and communicative. We also appreciated the quick sanding of the driveway on the morning of our final stay so we could get safely get out after some freezing rain!

    This was one of the most well-furnished and well-appointed places we've stayed -- it had ALMOST all the comforts of home. It had ALMOST everything you could need in the kitchen, bath, and living areas. The location was nice and the building, while not new, was convenient and easily accessible (the unpaved parking area was muddy on our spring weekend, though). So why not five stars? It's the almost: The water is NOT POTABLE (not safe to drink/cook with), and we were not informed of this prior to our stay. There was no warning posted anywhere; we only found out when we saw the information on PAGE 10 of the 10-page info packet -- on the 3rd night of our 3-night stay (we always read before check-out). This is a great place, as long as you BRING BOTTLED WATER!

    The property was extremely well appointed with every type of kitchen item you could want. The beds were comfortable, there were plenty of towels and property was clean.We stayed at the property for easy access to Mt Ellen/Sugarbush. We did not expect ski in / ski out in the Spring mud season. In fact, we planned on the 7 -10 min drive to Sugarbush base. Even so the walk to reach the snow during regular season is a bit more than advertised.Overall a great property.

    So glad we decided to stay here. This condo is exceptionally clean and well cared for. The beds and linens are top notch. And so are all the appliances. The owners were very helpful when we had questions. And the bonus is the huge hot tub in the common area. Definitely recommend renting this place.

    Beautiful area of Vermont to take in the spectacular fall foliage and see many areas of rural Vermont. Though it's a bit off the beaten path, it was fairly centrally located to really explore the small towns in the area and had amazing views of the changing leaves. It was nice and quiet in the condo since it was off season for skiing and a perfect respite from the day's site seeing. Very comfortable and well appointed. Great place to stay!

    The location is amazing for those looking to take advantage of Sugarbush for hiking or skiing depending on the season. A great open space to unwind after a day on the slopes with common area access to a sauna, hot tub and game room. The place is well unkept and beautifully furnished. Would certainly stay here again!

    Place is very nice and well equipped with everything you may need. Beds very comfortable and each room had its own thermostat. While slope “side”, it’s difficult to actually get to the base of Mt Ellen. We chose to drive after one of us tried the trail and hiking up at the end of day would not be fun. Unfortunately the main bedroom toilet was broken by prior renter but when I informed the owners they were VERY quick to respond and a new toilet was installed by their contractor and plumber by 10:30 the next morning. We have never had so quick a response to an unexpected issue. We really appreciated their prompt attention. The hot tub in the building was not working the second night (not the owners fault). Would not hesitate to stay here again as the price and lodging were great - just know that driving to the slopes is probably needed.

    We had an amazing stay at this cozy Sugarbush getaway! The kitchen was incredibly well-equipped, making it so easy to cook meals after long days on the slopes. The rooms were super comfortable and felt like a home away from home. It truly had everything we needed for a perfect ski weekend. The short jaunt through the woods to Mount Ellen was great. We’d absolutely stay here again!

    The home was very peaceful and quiet during our stay up until the last day. Unfortunately a family with 3 dogs stayed below us and were quite noisy. However, this space was very clean and organized. Hosts were very responsive even while being 13hrs ahead. Kitchen had all the accessories needed to cook meals. Enjoyed our time over the holidays.Thank You for the hospitality and allowing us to stay at your home.
