We had such a cozy stay here! First time using VRBO.. couldn’t find the check out instructions, so I had to reach out to make sure we did what was expected. Other than that 100% all around.

Very nice place, lots of amenities, is in very good shape.

Access and area, quiet neighborhood (though that probably depends who'd staying there at the time), the location is great and has lots of comforts of home.

Only thing keeping it from 5 stars was washer and dryer not working & we didn't pack enough clean clothes. Neighbors a little loud.

In the clouds at Beech Mountain

Beautiful ski cabin up on Beech Mountain. Pet friendly which is hard to find. Nice clean and very accommodating. I feel like if you have over four people might be stressed a little bit with the size. It was totally fine for three adults. I do think anything over four plus adults would be stretching this place. Definitely great for a family of four. I mean it's a older ski chalet that's well taken care of by the owner. Location is superb for Beech Mountain.

Listen to some other reviews

I saw a review about the cleaning and thought they might be being dramatic… but that is not the case. There were hairs in shower, old clothes in the washer, we had to wash several dishes for them to be useable, old dishes in the dishwasher. I’ll stop there but wish I could post photos. After we thoroughly cleaned the first day it was a nice location. Minutes from Beech Mountain resort. The closest grocery is Food Lion and it’s pretty much the only one nearby so it gets crowded, plan your trips there. You can certainly tell parts of this town are still recovering from the storm. The town snow tubing is nearby as well as some decent restaurants in Banner Elk. The stairs in the home are steep just so it’s out there… not terrible, but as someone with arthritis in my knees I planned my trips up and down haha. Kitchen and living room are upstairs, the bedrooms, laundry and master bath are downstairs when you enter. If the cleaning improves this is a nice place.

Great Location w/Property Quirks

Great proximity to Land of Oz, and overall a decent rental. Its definitely older…kitchen is old and needs work, but was equipped to cook. Rooms were small but comfortable enough. Be warned the 2 bedrooms are main level with steep stairs (one of which is cracked) going up to living room and kitchen. Some quirks…no screen on upper deck if you want to open the sliding glass doors for fresh air, not many windows in general to open up with 2 window A/Cs, some outlets work by light switch, and washer/dryer were out of order. Getting 1st access was an issue as the codes originally provided were wrong, so when we arrived at night we had to call for help. Front porch light didn’t work either, so that was awkward in the pitch black. For 3 nights it served us well enough, but it does need some improvement as far as cleanliness and lighting goes.

My husband and I enjoyed being able to watch tv and relax on the super comfortable big couches during evening storms. We also loved the comfortable bed! The kitchen was great to have and both bathrooms were beautiful and modern which was great.
