Lake Overlook - High elevation home with views, many games
Needing a place where you can leave it all behind? Then Lake Overlook is your location!
This home will be your own unique retreat, as it is the only home in the area looking over Buckeye Lake in Beech Mountain, providing peace and serenity as soon as you arrive. Step inside and you will be greeted by gorgeous hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, and an open living area complete with plush leather furnishings, a stone fireplace, and a large flatscreen Roku TV. When you want to grab a bit of fresh air, step out to the large upper deck and make the most of the gas grill and tiled outdoor table to dine al fresco as you soak up the views or relax out in the hammock. Speaking of dining, more formal meals can easily be prepared by the chef of the group in the well-appointed kitchen boasting granite countertops, stainless steel double ovens, a five-burner gas stove, a large refrigerator to stock up groceries in, and a dishwasher for easy cleanup! This upper level is also home to three bedrooms including the primary bedroom with a ensuite featuring granite counter tops, a double vanity and large soaking tub.
The kiddos and young at heart will love hanging out downstairs, as the game room offers a ping-pong table, air hockey, and an 80s-inspired full size arcade machine to throw it back to the good old days. An 85-inch Roku TV completes the setting for a movie after the competition winds down. With a mini-fridge and sink close by, everything you need to have a blast is all right there. Sliding doors open up from this living space onto a large deck featuring a porch swing for book reading or conversations. The lower level also features an oversized bedroom with a king-size select comfort bed that can be adjusted to your comfort level. Should you need to do a bit of work while away, there is a desk that will meet that need, as well as a cozy chair for reading!

This home was wonderfully suited for our family! Parking in the garage was a huge benefit since it was in the teens outside with snow on the ground and the playroom was a huge hit with our grandchildren. We loved our stay on the mountain!

House was just as advertised - clean, spacious and good views. We had two families of 4 stay in the house and it was the perfect amount of private and communal space. All the amenities we needed were included - wash/dryer, coffee maker, kitchenware, games, etc. Very close to Buckeye Rec Center and 20 min drive to downtown Beech. We enjoyed our time!

We had a wonderful time. House was awesome. Beds very comfy. Kitchen well stocked. Lots of fun things to do inside. The only thing that wasn't quite right, was there was one ping pong ball that was bent, no pool sticks, the previous tenants left their trash in garage and the door code didn't work. Still give this place a 5 star. We had to leave some of our trash and all of the previous tenants trash. We even took trash home since we don't live too far away. We could only get so much in trash bin. The after hours support had us in within minutes after door code failed. I reported trash, but it still didn't get picked up. It wasn't in our way, no big deal. I'm not sure where to buy ping pong balls in Beech Mtn. Lastly, the trash can in kitchen was hanging on by 1 small nail, we repaired it. Again 5 star. Great place.

Overlook Feedback
The property was very nice - tastefully decorated and very clean, the kitchen was well stocked. The view was stunning and the game room was perfect for rainy days!
The property management company I would give low marks to.
1. Prior to the trip I contacted the BlueRidge for 3 things
- was there a place to workout for a fee. They said no not within 20 minutes. We were a short walk from Beech Mtn Rec center, $50 for the family for the whole week and access to all the facilities !!!
- is the grill clean? They said yes. It was so disgusting I wouldn’t cook food for my dog on it. We have pictures if needed.
- we asked to get the directions etc prior to leaving so we could print them out and take them with us. I was told someone would get back to me. I never heard from anyone.
2. We called to report that someone had been in the property. I had to repeat myself several times (English was a second language) and the response was it wasn’t anyone from the management company. If nothing was missing there isn’t an issue
3. We called the morning of check-out day because the we couldn’t open the outdoor bin to put the trash in. I had to explain myself several times (English was a second language). Then we were put on hold for quite some time. Fortunately a passerby stopped and helped us out so we could get underway.

Beautiful and Relaxing
We have vacationed in the mountains for several years now at different locations and this home by far has been the best. It was spacious and very well decorated. It had everything you could ever need as a home away from home. My family had fun playing ping pong and air hockey together. We seriously thought about asking to extend our stay because we loved it so much. The home was very clean and updated nicely. I highly recommend staying here.
