Beech Mountain is great year-round. We rented this property in the late fall -- leaves had fallen and before the snow (or so we thought). The chalet was great... lots of room, well appointed, technology-rich, and a great place for families to get away!
The main room is open and has enough seating for most of the group (we had 12, but never had everyone watching the TV). On the other side of the fireplace was a table for six... great for games, puzzles or a meal. The kitchen had all the things we needed. There was even a coffee maker that ended up being a hit for hot water for hot chocolate!
The bedrooms are a normal size, but with a great selection of various beds to meet your needs -- two kings, two queens and a room with two bunkbeds (four twins). Downstairs is a fun game room with foosball and video games.
The location is near the top of Beech, so in the winter, it would be easy to get to the ski resort (bring your 4x4 vehicle). In the other months, there are fun trails all throughout the neighborhood. We saw tons of deer, but no bears.
After any hike or a day on the slopes, make sure you get back to enjoy the hot tub on the front deck. It works great and does wonder for aching muscles -- or to just warm up!
Great property, great location, great owners. Highly recommend this one for your next trip to the High Country!
