BEECH not Beach vacation

My friend and I are on our 12th family vacation together. This year we decided to switch things up and go to the mountains. We had a great time ! The house was great for our teenagers and young adults to have plenty of room to spread out. The rooms were comfortable and well equipped. We did havd a small air conditioning issue, bit we really didnt need it as the weather was so comfortable. Our host was also very quick to respond. We enjoyed the butterfly garden across the road and the fitness trail arou d the pond nearby. Looking for bunnies and deer was a daily activity. Thank you for a great stay!

Family gathering in the mountains

This beautiful house had the basic necessities for our large extended family. There was plenty of space for 9 adults and 4 children. The property is very family friendly and teaming with wildlife. The children enjoyed playing in the creek and making S’mores at the fire pit. We were able to get the TV in the living room and kids area to work, but not in any other bedrooms. The wifi was intermittent and unreliable. I have Verizon and could not get enough signal to make any calls. My sister had AT&T and got a little better service. Bring towels and wash cloths as there was not enough for our big group. The propane grill from a previously mentioned review is not functional but there is a working charcoal grill. The fire table on the porch is also broken and crumbling. The refrigerator leaks daily. Overall, the house could use some attention and the online description needs to be corrected but it had what we needed for an enjoyable stay. Thank you Jessica.

Graduation stay

Great parking area. Great social areas. Plenty of space. The gas grill wouldn’t stay lit but there was a charcoal grill handy. The house was quite dusty in areas not hit by the cleaner (maybe rushed?) and porch has to be cleaned before using. That didn’t diminish the great time we had at this property.

Great place

Had a wonderful time with friends and family! Great location, super close to Beech Ski Resort. Nice area to walk around and be outside. The Beech Club was walking distance with a nice lake/pond as well. We didn’t use the club but it definitely looked nice. The house itself was great for the 6 adults and 6 teens. The house was clean inside and had general kitchen tools. Communication with the host was great! Thank you!!

Required large home for an instructional team for adaptive skiing. This worked well with the group for housing. Will require 4x4 due to location and driveway with heavy snowfall. The hostess is great and very accommodating. Would recommend for large group.

Relaxing Getaway

We had an amazing time staying here. I have 3 boys that spent most of their time outside in the treehouse and zipline. The propane firepit on the porch and hot tub were my two favorite features. Plenty of space inside for everyone to be comfortable and the hosts were very responsive. I like to rate our stays on a "would we stay again" mentality and we definitely would go back.

Even better than the pictures!

This house was perfect for teaming bonding with 14 girls! The house is even bigger than the pictures made it seem. The living room connected to the kitchen giving an open common room space, good for large family and friends. The house was clean and slept all of us comfortably. I would definitely stay here again. Super cute and loved the location!

Beautiful mountain house!

We had 3 generations of my family staying in the house for a long weekend and could not have enjoyed it more. The bedrooms are set up well to allow privacy for various families. The yard allowed our young kids to play while the parents could have coffee and watch from the front porch. The hot tub was divine! We had some issues with the internet but our host was very responsive and got to the bottom of the issues. I would recommend this property to anyone coming to enjoy Beech Mountain!
