About this property

Halftime Haus - 5BR ski in/ski out on Beech. Beautiful views, high end updates, perfect location!

Whether you're an outdoor enthusiast pushing the limits or just looking to relax, your choices at Halftime Haus on Beech Mountain and the high country are endless! Our glorious Spring and Summer climates offer sunny mild days and cool nights, which bestow upon you endless options from invigorating river rafting and mountain bike courses to tranquil serenity rooms at five-star spas, and everything in-between.

Halftime Haus's ski in/out location is just a short hike to the top of Beech Mountain. Enjoy a drink and snacks or take a morning yoga class at 5506, named for its elevation and glorious 360 degree views. Hop on a nearby bike trail or take advantage of the countless hiking trails in the area.

Halftime Haus offers an ideal location for family-friendly activities and events. Almost every weekend hosts an arts/crafts festival, holiday parade or live outdoor music. Tubing, sightseeing, waterfalls, wineries, golf courses, fishing, shopping and a variety of restaurants are just a short drive from Beech Mountain.

And for low-key evenings with family and friends, take advantage of Halftime Haus's outdoor living spaces: decks on two levels for cookouts with a Weber gas grill and a charcoal burning Green Egg, a 6-person hot tub, and a cozy firepit for stargazing and s' mores.

The spacious, remodeled 5-bedroom home is a true ski in/ski out during the winter months along The Meadows, and a bike in/out in the summer & fall months... what more could you ask for! The 3000+ square foot home is only a short walk from Fred's General Mercantile as well as other fun retail and activities on Beech Mountain. The upper garage serves as a mudroom, ski, and bike storage area with a deck walkway to the slope right out the door. You can even ski right to the door!

Inside, relax in a great room with a high cathedral ceiling and wood-burning stone fireplace. The modern kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances opens up to a dining area along with a bar and beverage center for effortless entertaining. On the same level are three bedrooms, each with a private full bath. Enjoy the third level loft for additional sleeping and a video arcade table boasting 400 games for rainy days and to keep the kids entertained. Central heat and air keep you comfortable while a whole-house generator provides security. Stay connected with high-speed internet and six smart flat-screen TVs, two video consoles, and 100s of DVD movies. The lower level provides another den/living area with a brand new pool table, and an additional bedroom with a full bath. Also on the lower level is a luxury master suite—a living space in its own right with a king size bed, sitting area, gas fireplace, access to a private deck area, and a minibar. The en suite bath has a large champagne bubble bathtub as well as a double shower.

Halftime Haus truly makes the perfect destination for year-round adventures! Be it a winter ski trip with family and friends, a summer escape from the city heat, a long weekend getaway during leaf season, or a week during Springtime or over Thanksgiving/Christmas... this property offers everything you need to create memories to cherish for a lifetime!

Halftime haus is perfectly located on the slopes with all the amenities you need.

We had a great time and loved the location of the house. Everything was well kept, clean and we enjoyed the large decks to relax on in between runs. Would definitely stay again!

Great location! the set up of the house is a little different but it works! We enjoyed just watching everyone on the terrain park and the kids being able to ski in and out was priceless!

Beautiful house in perfect location

The house was gorgeous and very clean. We really enjoyed the ski in/ski out. I am not as good of a skier as my husband and was very thankful the home was located a little lower on the slope for my skill level. We would love to rent this home again.

Great house

The house was fantastic. Comfortably furnished and plenty of room We did have a problem with getting two of the showers hot water to work. That could have been operator error, i did not check them myself, one person was elderly and the other was a 20 something girl. Hot tub was great, only thing about that we would change is the way the cover folds blocks the view of the mountain. If it was turned so it blocked the neighbors it would be better.

Great location and nice property

Very nice property in a great location. The master bedroom was awesome and the other rooms were good to. Everyone had their own bathroom, so that was great. Nice Webber outdoor grill with plenty of kitchen items.

Beautiful home. Easy access to town and slopes

We had an amazing time. House had everything we needed... except potholders... The inside was immaculately clean. However, outside property was covered in litter. Me and my guests filled an entire trash bag with cans and bottles that were scattered about.

Beautiful ski in

We rented the house for my sons 11th birthday and the location was absolutely perfect. The house is decorated really nicely and the rooms are set up for a lot of privacy it was great. We had a couple issues when we first arrived. We got there late at night and the management company quickly resolved it (and even answered our call at 1am!) we stay in beech at least twice a month and this was one of the nicest and conveniently located homes we’ve stayed in. No complaints other than I wish there was a hot tub ; ) we will definitely be return guests.

Winter Wonderland at Beech Mountain

We loved our stay at Halftime Haus. It was a fantastic property, luxurious and yet practical for our family of 11 ranging in age from a baby and toddler up to us, the grandparents. Having the ski in-ski out option was a huge bonus, especially since we were there at the busiest week of the year. Our only negative was that there was no hair dryer at the house! I called management and asked for one but never received it. So bring your hair dryer. Otherwise, it was absolutely perfect!
