Swiss Mountain Village

Good place to stay if you want to stay in and have meals. Not far from town but need to drive Full kitchen, fireplace, sofa and kitchen table. If you want to walk to restaurants you can stay in town for about the same cost. Room smelled musty but opened window and it was better. Place was clean and beds were comfortable. Said there was internet but we didn’t get any connection. I would stay again

Stayed first week of October, timeshare swap for my sister-in-law. Beware of the steep driveway you pull into in front of the office. We did not have a direct dealing but the 2 times my SIL dealt with the main office, the older woman was very unfriendly, like it was a big inconvenience to deal with any issue, even just checking in! Remaining staff we encountered were friendly. Parking is pretty bad. We stayed in a 4-unit building and there was barely room for 3 cars plus steep, sharp hairpin turns while maneuvering a culvert to get into the spaces for the building. Because we were 2 couples, each with a car, we parked our car by the “rec building” and walked. Can’t imagine dealing with any of this driveway/parking in the winter. Beds were comfortable, extra blankets available but exactly enough towels and face clothes for 4 people. Guess we were supposed to wash them ourselves - oh, and don’t forget to tip housekeeping, very blatant signage. Good sized dining table made up for the lack of kitchen counter space but kitchen was adequately stocked with appliances, dishes, pans and utensils. We did have to set up the coffeemaker on a cooler to have access to a plug and balance the toaster on the edge between the stove and sink - need more counter space and electric outlets, find a better place for the stacked washer and dryer. Make sure you leave everything spotless when you leave - clean, dry everything, counters, stove and refrigerator. If not, they will charge you a cleaning fee, which is displayed in multiple places. Made me wonder what housekeeping did to make anyone consider tipping. For the most part, our unit was clean but the floor of the kitchen area needed a good cleaning. My husband’s socks were filthy within a very short time after taking his sneakers off. Gas fireplace was nice on cool mornings but the timer was annoying - 60 minutes and off it went and really only felt like 30. There weren’t too many amenities with this place but some guests really seemed to enjoy the stocked fishing pond. I’d prefer to stay in a place a little more nicely maintained - everything felt a bit old and worn and this goes beyond the price of a stocked pond. It’s proximity to Blowing Rock, the Blue Ridge Pkwy and all its sights at a fairly reasonable price is probably it’s draw but think we’ll look at a different place next time we come by ourselves.

Swiss mountain is a wonderful place for a getaway. Short driving distance from Fort Mill, SC. It was perfect for my sister and I to bring our families to. Units are spacious, full kitchens and washer/ dryer in unit. Grocery, restaurants, skiing and tubing all close by. Everything was well maintained and comfortable. We’ve been going here for over 20 years, since we were kids and have a great experience each time. There is plenty to do all year long in the area. We look forward to going up there every year.

Swiss Mountain is a great place to stay for families and couples. And a place I’ve stayed at for many years. It’s also close to downtown blowing rock & not to far to visit wineries, skiing at sugar mountain or snow tubing at hawks nest.
