Cabin in the Woods

This is a beautiful cabin, nestled in Beech Mountain adjacent to ski slopes. The view was beautiful, the accommodations were very pleasant. We had a great stay. Our host was very responsive to our needs. Many thanks for letting us stay in this property.

Great Ski Trip

Location! Location! Location! This cabin is perfect for a family ski trip. It’s small (1200ish sq/ft) but you’re not there for the house. You’re there for the slopes! The house is located about 150 yards from the bottom of a blue run. We made the walk with a 12 year old and 9 year old in full ski equipment. THERE IS A SMALL CREEK YOU HAVE TO CROSS. I did not see this detail in any other review. It’s totally walkable but if there is significant snow melt it can be A bit tricky. We did it just fine with our kids and obviously many others walk it every day. It was just not something we expected. The rest of the walk is slightly downhill to the slopes and uphill back to the house. No big deal at all. Even for a tired, overly dramatic, 9 year old. You can easily ski to any lift from the access point.The owners are awesome. Great communication. Top notch service. Book with confidence.

Cozy mountain stay

We love the location of this house to the slopes. The location is convenient to get to Fred’s and other popular eating places. The house was cozy, comfortable, and perfect for our family of five. we had added bonus seeing a beautiful snow and deer in the yard during our stay. I would definitely stay here again in the future.

Perfect for our family!

We recently stayed for 5 days with our two kids (ages 8 and 4) and my mother-in-law. The house was perfect for our family. We really enjoyed the porch, where we spent most of our time. The location was great, as well! Would definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed our stay

Grandparents, parents and two young children enjoyed their stay at this property. We were close to the slopes and optionally an easy drive to park near the entrance. This was just the right size for our family and plenty of room to play, do puzzles or just hang out watching the Super Bowl. The host was great in answering questions and working with us. Everything was as listed and as shown in the pictures. We hope to return in the future.

Excellent

This may have been the most well-appointed property we’ve booked so far. We needed none of the extras we brought from home from paper products to the crock pot - everything we needed was there. Communication with the owners was easy; they provided all the information we needed well in advance. The location was convenient to Asheville, Boone, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk. Thank you!

Great Beech Mountain location

I visited this property with my spouse and two children under the age of 12. Rick was very communicative as the host. We enjoyed the mountain views from the porch and upgraded master bath. The house is located steps away from the Beech Mountain resort and is close to hiking and restaurants. We visited in the spring well after ski season and just before the summer resort attractions opened, but would like to visit again to take advantage of the proximity to the Beech Mountain resort.

As advertised

Rick was very communicative throughout the whole process. Our two little families loved it and while we have been spoiled with ski in ski out for several years now, this is as close to it as you can get without it being ski in ski out. We loved the gas fireplace, the renovated and spa like master bathroom, and they had everything we needed for the most part. We would book again for sure.

This property was perfect. My family enjoyed our stay and location!

This property had 3 bedrooms and sleeps comfortably 6 people. It has very easy access to the slopes where you walk and put your skis on and ski down to the lifts. You will want to get your passes ahead of time. Easy to have your lunch at the house and not at the lodge. My family enjoyed our stay here very much and would not hesitate to stay here again.
