About this property

Hilltop Sanctuary ~ 1 Mi to Beech Mountain Slopes!

Perched above the beautiful vistas that make up Beech Mountain, this 2-bed, 1.5-bath vacation rental boasts an ideal spot to kick back, relax, and take in the views. If you're visiting in the summer or fall, fill your space with fresh mountain air from the private deck or, in the winter, cozy up by the wood-burning fire while (fingers crossed) fresh snow falls. A short drive away, get your turns in on the slopes or explore picture-perfect trails in Grandfather Mountain State Park.

Very nice
This was our first time skiing in Beech Mountain. We absolutely loved the cabin. It was very clean and cozy. I reached out to the owner beforehand to ask a few questions about the area and he was very quick to respond. We will definitely be back!!

Lovely time!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Deer were amazing! Location was great and we highly recommend Holy Smokes Bar B Qu in Beech Mountain. The only suggestion would be a few basic casserole dishes and mixing bowls. Communication with property manager was great!

Beautiful and perfectly located
We loved our stay here! I’ve been to several cabins in Boone and Banner Elk and this is the most perfectly located. A 5 minute drive to Fred’s, easy to access and tons of well thought out quality of life touches. Thank you for helping make an amazing anniversary trip 😁

Great Spot for a trip to Beech!
This a cozy place full of everything you need for a trip to Beech. Great location to the resort and slopes. Entry to the driveway wasn’t too bad even in deep snow with awd. The only issue with this property is the mattresses. They are the cheap foam, “in a box” mattress and the king bed will have you seeping in a valley in the middle. I ended up sleeping on the couch most nights. Other than that, the spot is great.

Cool mountain getaway
Nice property, well presented. The 1/2 bath off of the master bedroom is TINY! We appreciated the TV & internet on our rainy day, and when the weather was nice, it was a great place to come 'home' to.

Great little cabin
Well stocked with everything you may need to have a great vacation. Love the layout of two bedrooms split by a tiny hallway with a bathroom. The other half of the cabin is a large open living room/kitchen/dining area. Quiet area with tons of deer that just graze right beside the road and don’t spook easily. Definitely highly recommended.

Great View
Pictures and descriptions are accurate, and it's a clean unit. Appliances worked well. It's well stocked and comfortable. I wish I had noticed in the listing that there isn't a central unit at this home. There are standing units which help cool some, but I had to sleep with the windows open at night because it was too warm inside for me without doing that. I'm grateful the daily highs were only mid 70s. I recommend ceiling fans for both bedrooms. The shower head is not for a tall person (I am 5'4 and it was a little above me). The light in the half bath flickered some, but it may just need a new bulb. I didn't reach out to management about the light flickering. Plenty of deer close by. Love the area. Loved sitting on the counter height chairs on the deck. Bed was comfortable. Motion activated lighting on the garage, so that was nice. Management sends detailed information about the unit before arrival. People in the area are very friendly and nice.
