Holli, a spotless space in a spot worth exploring is a combination that tends to bring people back, so it is great to hear both hit the mark. Looking forward to welcoming you again.

This was a beautiful place to stay and wonderful for a quick weekend getaway. The location is amazing and we loved the spaces inside the cabin. We were huge fans of the hot tub and all of the cozy spaces. Parking was a little tricking getting into and out of since it is very steep and at a curve but it was nothing we couldn’t figure out!

Happy they allowed our two 50 lbs dogs as many rentals dont allow more than one or small breeds only. Location is great with paved/city maintained mountain roads to get to house. Upper/main road level parking is great for one car with additional parking "below"/ downhill from main road. Communication was on point and check out process a breeze with simply two things to take care of: turn on dishwasher and take trash out. Left us with ample time in the morning to get another walk in.

An awesome place for a weekend birthday celebration with our twin teenagers and friends. Adults upstairs and kids downstairs superb. Just enough space for everyone. The hot tub was a plus. Management was super communicative.

Great place!

Wonderful, comfortable house! We were a little surprised that there was no air-conditioning but once we opened the windows and turned on the ceiling fans, it was very comfortable!

The host was very nice. It is a beautiful house. Felt super safe. The driveway seemed super scary in the snow but ended up not being too bad to get in and out of with four wheel drive. The hot tub didn’t look super clean so we decided not to use it which was kinda disappointing.

The cabin was mostly clean, and in a nice location. However, there was no air conditioning and the airflow through the house even with the windows open and fans running was terrible. It never got below a humid 74. The beds were stiff. The arcade game worked, but the football table was missing the actual foosball. Some of the lights in the house didn’t work. The front screen door also needs to be repaired, it didn’t completely shut, and the screen was separating from the door. The bedroom with the bathroom was super cramped due to the cabinets that were added. The bathroom also didn’t have any shampoo, conditioner, or soap, but the second bathroom did. The driveway is a bit steep and turning in from the right is basically impossible. The little parking area off the road is doable, but a bit tight if you have a larger car. The water pressure was great. There was plenty of provided toilet paper and paper towels. The kitchen had dishes and cooking supplies, as well as a dishwasher and dishwasher tablets. We didn’t use the hot tub, so no feedback there. Check out was easy as well; just taking out the trash and starting the dishwasher. Communication with the host was easy, they responded quickly through the chat, but also had a number to call.

What an adorable cabin! We have always wanted to stay in one of these yurt-esque homes after seeing them on Beech for years. We have stayed in every other style home/ condo on the mountain and this was a big hit. Great location not far from pizza and Fred’s. Roads are in really good shape after the storm and there was plenty of parking for a large SUV. Lovely mountain forest view, nice living area, large deck, cute updated decor. A great getaway!

The property was extremely clean and comfortable. The location could not be better for access to spend the day at Beech Mountain. The property manager was very attentive and I would highly recommend staying at one of their properties.

Everything was perfect from check in to check out! We were able to check in early, thanks to the host allowing that accommodation. Location was perfect for us as we were skiing on beech mountain for the weekend. Great location and the host was extremely helpful. Would return!

Clean in-the-woods cabin - kid and dog approved

Great location at Beech Mountain. Close to skiing. Pet friendly. Clean. Kids loved the bunk room. Wood stove kept the cabin toasty. Excellent communication from check-in to check-out. Curvy mountain roads - keep it slow.

LOVED IT!

Excellent experience all around! Owner was great to work with, was super thoughtful, and quick to reply to questions. House was very clean and beautifully decorated. Mattresses were super comfortable/had to be brand new. Teens especially loved the hot tub after a long day of skiing. Located less than 10 minutes from Beech Mountain Ski Resort parking lot. Competitively priced. Highly recommend!

Perfect size, set up and layout for a winter get away!

We loved the house and hosts were very communicative. I took my 19 yr old daughter and friend and 24 yr old son for a quick ski trip. The set up was perfect so that we all had a bit of privacy. The home looked as though it had been updated with tasteful decor. A third bathroom on the lowest level (where the bunk beds are) would have made it perfect, but we managed without issues. My kids really enjoyed the hot tub and the location was close to the ski mountain. Some road work due to the storms still being done but detours were set up and access was not a problem at all. Stay at the property was very reasonable and I return to this property for sure!

The home had no air conditioning. We slept with the windows open and still 80 degrees. Very uncomfortable weekend and unexpected for a July stay. Had we known this fact in the details we would have chosen another property.
