Great Ski Getaway – Cozy spot, Great Location, and Exceptional Comfort!

We had an amazing stay at this property! The location is unbeatable—just a short drive to the slopes, making it so convenient for skiing and snowboarding. The cabin itself is cozy and well-equipped, with plenty of room for our group. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the living area with the fireplace made it a great place to unwind. The owners were very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a perfect ski getaway! We’ll definitely be back next season!

Great mountain condo!

We had a wonderful stay! They had all the amenities you could ever want, including plenty of towels, paper products, cooking supplies and utensils. We loved the location for easy access to the ski resort and the town on Beech. The 3rd bedroom would be difficult for some to access, since the ladder to the loft is very vertical! Kitchen/living area is very comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

July 4th Weekend

We had a great stay over July 4th weekend. The space was just as described. Everything we needed was at hand. The deck was lovely for coffee in the mornings. We loved the celebrations in the area. The deer visited every day and ate out our hands. We hope to return.

Adorable Mountain Condo

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Almost Heaven on Beech Mountain. It’s located in a great spot not too far from both the slopes and the Beech Mountain town area. We were there for just two nights, but the accommodations were good for the 4 of us. The kitchen was a bit small, but it was plenty for a short stay. It was very cold and snowing, so we didn’t get to use the back patio, but it would be wonderful to sit out on during the warmer months. There is a lovely view from the patio of the mountain and its slopes. The bedrooms were nice sizes and the bathroom was clean. If you struggle with stairs, this probably wouldn’t be the place for you. The condo is very vertical. There are steps up to the door, steps to all the bedrooms and a ladder to the loft bedroom (which has a half bath). Of course, my son loved the loft and asked immediately if he could have that room. (He’s 20 and over 6 ft tall and was very comfortable). The condo warmed up easily and stayed warm on a very cold, winter weekend. This condo is a good value for the price we paid. We would consider staying there again!

Disappointed in accuracy of description; NO AC and steep stairs and loft stairs

My wife and our 16- & 18-year-old and I stayed in this condo. We spent a lot of time researching and wanted 2 main things: 3 bedrooms and Air-conditioning. The listing at the time stated Air conditioning and it is a 3 bedroom. The pictures do not relay the steepness of the loft stairs and the narrow stairs leading from the main floor (livingroom and kitchen) up to the two bedrooms and bath. The loft stairs are close to the main stairs. Neither daughter felt comfortable climbing. They had to share a bed/ bedroom. Additionally, the owner sent a text 1 hour before we arrived stating their was not A/C in the guest room. Additionally, when we arrived we realize there is no A/C in the loft. There is a window unit in the kitchen and in the master bedroom plugged in. The loft was up to 85 degrees. We came AWAY from Florida to get away from the heat or sleep in it. There is no wat to regulate the temperature with the 2 wall units and 3 stories of the condo. I called the owner within 30 minutes of our arrival and basically was told there were only certain description that were mandatory and basically it is what it is and the owners' husband who had knee surgery can handle the stairs and loft stairs so, and there is nothing that can be done. My wife sent a text and was told we could try to negotiate with Air B&B. My wife and I felt stuck, and our teenage daughters were miserable. Descriptions/pics should be transparent. Also, electric outlets don't work throughou DIY feel.
