Welcome to The Buckeye Valley Beech Bunker — a cozy, clean mountain retreat just 0.6 miles from Beech Mountain Resort. It’s close enough for a quick drive or easy walk to the slopes, which makes it perfect for ski weekends, winter getaways, and families looking for a comfortable home base on the mountain. Guests love the warm fireplace, the comfortable king bed, and the balcony where deer wander by all year long.
This one-bedroom condo sleeps up to four guests with a king bed in the bedroom and a queen sleeper sofa in the living room. Inside, you’ll find a simple, well-kept space with everything you need for an easy stay. A small desk and workspace were recently added, making it convenient for remote work, schoolwork, or catching up on emails between ski runs.
The kitchen is equipped with the basics for simple meal prep, and the smart lock makes check-in smooth and easy. Fast WiFi, a Smart TV with Roku, and an in-unit washer and dryer help make your mountain trip feel comfortable and relaxed.
Location really is the highlight here. You’re only 0.6 miles from Beech Mountain Resort and close to restaurants, walking trails, mountain biking, and everything the High Country offers. Banner Elk is just 10 miles away, Boone is 20 miles away, and the unit is tucked inside the historic Holiday Beech Villas community—one of the first condo communities built on the mountain in the early 70s.
Nature is part of the experience. You’ll often see deer right off the balcony, and in the winter months when the leaves drop, you get a lovely seasonal mountain view.
Good to know before you book: • AWD/4WD is strongly recommended in winter • The mountain gets very dark at night—arriving before dark is easier • Cell service can be spotty, so downloading directions ahead of time helps • There are exterior steps leading down to the unit
Amenities you’ll have: ✓ Fireplace ✓ Balcony ✓ King bed ✓ Queen sleeper sofa ✓ Smart TV with Roku ✓ Kitchen basics ✓ In-unit washer & dryer ✓ Fast WiFi ✓ Workspace / desk ✓ Free parking ✓ Pet-friendly ($50 pet fee)
I’m always available by text or email if you need anything during your stay, but I give guests plenty of space to enjoy their time. We look forward to welcoming you to The Buckeye Valley Beech Bunker and hope you enjoy your mountain getaway.

Jill, we are so happy your daughter had a a great experience as a ski instructor at the Beech Mountain Ski Resort. The location is perfect for the daily skier or instructor. We hope you will visit Beech Mountain again and our condo awaits your visit. Judith
Jessica the host was very responsive and helpful. The unit was nice and clean. It was great to see the deer each day right outside our door and window!! The kitchen could use a few more forks, spoons, knives (only 1 teaspoon) and 4 of the others. Could also use more than 4 drinking glasses. Other than these small items, all was good. Thank you
Thank you Scott for your review. I know when the trees are filled out in the summer, the view is like a tree house. The winter is better. I am glad your vacation was relaxing. Judith
Couldn’t get the fireplace to work, but overall nice and cozy.

Hello, Lonnie. I wish I had known you were having problems with the fireplace. I am always available to our guests. I checked the fireplace after you left your review, and it was operational.
I'm glad you were still able to enjoy The Buckeye Beech Bunker at Beech Mountain. I hope to be able to accommodate you again in the future. Thank you!
We arrived late and the place was well light and easy to find. Had a wonderful time just relaxing. Many things to do here. Communication with owner was delightful And easy. We will return for more weekend getaways thank you.

Thank you for visiting Beech Mountain and choosing our condo for your stay. I am so happy you both enjoyed your get away and please return again soon. The mountain has great activities during the summer months and the weather is wonderful with high 60's or low 70's. Judith
We came to Beech Mountain to ski and the condo location was great. The place was comfortable and had nice furnishings. The heat wasn't fully on when we arrived (it was 57 indoors) but we were able to warm the place up relatively quickly with the fireplace. We would return for the convenience to the slopes.
The condo was a great retreat in the mountains for my wife and I and the cost was very reasonable. It has been tastefully remodeled and was well equipped and very comfortable. The building itself is older but the location next to the ski resort would be great for skiers. The cooler temperatures were a refreshing change. We enjoyed hiking in the area as well.

About the host
Hosted by Jessica Lopera
Hola! I’m Jessica, my friends call me Jess. In 2020 my family and I were ready to explore a different pace of life. We wanted a space to play outdoors and to be in nature. We found it in the mountains and call it home now. Our experience in the mountains means you’ll get high service and quality, local recommendations.
I love capturing magical moments of the mountain life while hosting. We would love to host you! Send us a message with any questions you may have.
