Disliked: Location
Clean, was very cold on arrival but heated up quick. The trip to take the trash is scary. Not good for 60 plus unless you are very fit. 12 stairs and you can't park near them as spots taken. The steep terrain and hair pin turns meant you had to be home by dusk. There was no dinner out. I cooked which wasn't easy. Not too many pots. No matching covers. Don't know why open and closed paint cans under sink but they shouldn't have been there. Not exactly close to anything major. All at least 1 hr away. No joke, the driving was down right scary. No tv directions.

Our second stay

This was our second stay here. Just like last year, we only had a few days to get away and just wanted a place in our favorite vacation location to relax for a few days, and this place was perfect for that.

Perfect Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here as the condo had everything we needed. The proximity to everything in Beech Mountain and the resort made travel very simple for our ski trip with two young kids. The beds were very comfortable and the condo stayed warm despite the frigid temperatures. We look forward to visiting again soon!

The property's location was great. It is a little older unit but I was great for my family and I. The owner was easy to communicate with and even addressed an issue that we had when we checked in. We were please overall and we would stay there again.

The host was flexible and easy to communicate with when we wanted to come a few days early for our reservation. And once we got there, our stay was great. The place was clean, comfortable, and had great mountain views. With a car, it was easy to get to everywhere we wanted to go

Another wonderful stay

This property continues to be our favorite place to come back to. Charlene was so helpful and communicative. We had 5 of us there and the location was perfect. We took advantage of the clubhouse when we needed extra space and took in all the wonders of Beech Mountain. Snow, nature, the resort, the sledding hill - it was all so close. We're already anxiously awaiting our next trip back!

Nice place to stay

Nice place to stay for a few days. Little outdated, but everything worked when used. You can walk to ski slope, but I suggest you drive. Parking lot for resort is less then 5 minutes away. Our host was very responsive when we asked a question. Finding the correct road is a little tricky at first. I recommend you arrive before dark. Since you're up in the mountains, 4 wheel drive or chains are required when it snows. I would stay there again.

Exactly what we needed

Overall, it was a great stay. We were there in mid November and only spent 2 nights. We got in late the first night and were gone all day the next day. We were only there for a place to crash. Beds were good but the pull-out couch could use some love. Towels and sheets were clean and checkin/checkout was easy. Thanks Cecile for renting us your place! The view is really beautiful!

Property Manager was readily available when needed. A really beautiful place to stay. I highly recommend. Comfortable. Extremely well-stocked. Immaculate. Beautiful view. Quiet. Very close to ski resort and to amazing coffee and bakery shop. I was able to get grocery delivery as well. I had no vehicle, took shuttle from airport, and didn't miss having vehicle. Nice walks.

Perfect location!!

This condo was super close to Beech Mountain. We walked back and forth from the bars at the resort. We did decide to drive over when we went skiing though. Just because i didn’t want to carry all my gear. But it’s definitely close enough to do that if you want. Communication with the owner was great. She was shears just a text away. We had a great time and would definitely rent this place again.

About the host

Hosted by Charlene Magalski

Host profile image
Hi there! I have always wanted a little place in the mountains where I could go to take in the beautiful scenery, breath in the mountain air, and be amongst the beauty of nature and all it has to offer. I found my little place here. I have visited it a handful of times before I got the opportunity to purchase it. Since I can only be there a few times a year, I wanted to share it with others and give them the opportunity to enjoy this special place that I have grown to love! It is such a wonderful place to go to retreat away from the business of everyday life. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do.
