Sugar Mountain Resort in North Carolina is a popular destination for Southern skiers. The resort offers a good variety of slopes, making it suitable for all levels of skiers and snowboarders. With its elevation, Sugar Mountain often enjoys longer ski seasons than other resorts in the region. The resort includes a terrain park for those looking to practice their tricks. Night skiing is available here, extending the fun into the evening hours. The on-site ski school is great for beginners or those looking to improve their skills. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed, making it a welcoming spot for families and groups. Plus, the views from the mountain are particularly lovely, adding to the skiing experience.

Me and my family have loved going to Sugar Mountain resort over the years. It has been a great place to teach my young kids how to ski. I highly recommend this place.

For being east coast, its my favorite local NC mountain. They groom twice a day so its always possible to hit a groomed run. Very family friendly and a decent variety of terrain difficulty. I really like the setup and its decent quality for being a small resort. The lifts are decent but lines get really long on the weekends. Recommend night snowboarding!! Or weekdays.
