Top of the World Condos

This place gets 2 stars instead of one because of the location and friendly staff. The room I got should be minus 2 stars. I think it was built in 1983 and it hasn’t been touched since! Horrible paneling, hideous green carpet, no remote for the LR tv, no paper towels just ONE old linen napkin. Good thing nobody was staying with me. The shower/​tub was a little springy and I was afraid that if i stayed in too long I may end up in the ski shop downstairs. I enjoyed the paper thin walls so I could hear the condo next door being renovated. The «fully» stocked kitchen had no glasses bigger than a juice glass. Everything else in the place was very random, like it had been decorated from the Salvation Army. There was a decent bar downstairs and being located right on the slopes were about the only positives for this place. Oh did I mention with tax and other fees I paid $ 200 for ONE night. Anywhere else this would be a $ 35 room full of truckers and hookers. Not that I would know anything about those places.
Snowshoe Mtn is a great place to ski, just avoid Top of the World condos.

Top of the World Condos are one of the best located lodging venues at Snowshoe Mountain, WV. It is one building with about 100 one-​bedroom units, and although the building went up in the early ‘80s, the units — all independently and individually owned — have undergone recent renovations. The building itself was renovated in 2007 and it cheered up its façade, added new siding and paint, and an overall face lift.
As a result, it is hard to rate the individual units as a whole. Some are absolutely impeccable, yet some are 1980 originals with the old cheap paneling. The thing about the units. First, one enters through a central hallway, and the main bedroom’s windows do not face the outside, but face the inner hallway. Down a corridor, the unit opens up into a great room/​dining/​kitchen that in almost all cases, features a sofa bed. Some of the units have opened up the kitchen to create a real great room with modernized appliances. The great room has two windows to either the East, facing the Widowmaker slope, or the Western views that are spectacular.
The location of Top of the World is amazing. It has the new Soaring Eagle high-​speed quad literally outside the Eastern wall, so it’s a great place to call home for a ski vacation.
Top of the World is one of the check-​in venues at Snowshoe, and it also provides a fully-​stocked ski shop and a restaurant bar, which frequently changes names, given the high mortality rates of dining establishments at ski resorts.
Another great thing about Top of the World is its location next to the new Soaring Eagle Lodge, which features Ember restaurant, the top restaurant within a 200-​mile radius.
If you have a small family or a small group, it is a relatively inexpensive, good and VERY centrally located place to stay.
