The Backyard Bunny Slope: A True Ski-in/Ski-out

Location...Location...Location.... Imagine waking up and putting on your skis/snowboard, opening the door and hitting the slopes. This is a true ski on/off chalet located on the Carolina Caribbean slope. Even better, it is walking distance to some of the best features of Beech Mountain including multiple restaurants and the famous Beech Mountain resort. Listen and watch the summer concerts from your private balcony. Enjoy the cool mountain air at 4,950ft elevation. This is life elevated.

Rare true ski-on/ski-off slope-slide chalet. Watch skiers from the balcony directly below you. Open the door, put your skis on, and ski the Carolina Caribbean Trail to the Beech Mountain Resort. It doesn't get any better or easier than this. This is the perfect location. In the summer ride your bike to the chair lift and take on the challenge of downhill mountain biking or just sit back and relax on the balcony and listen to the live summer concert series.

As soon as you enter this family-friendly mountaintop home, you're welcomed by an open-plan living area, designed and furnished with numerous modern amenities that span throughout the entire interior of this dreamy three-level home. The paint is new throughout. And this home is also baby-friendly, providing a toddler gate, baby carrier and pack-n-play.

The fully equipped kitchen and its inviting dining area open into the attractive living room, setting the tone for many memorable evenings. Bond through conversations at the fireplace and through board games. The fireplace was recently converted to electric, making it very safe, easy to operate, quick to warm up, and clean.

But the best is yet to come - Once you are ready to rest and relax, please make your way to two comfortable bedrooms with access to the fresh mountain air. On your way to the bedrooms, you're greeted with a ski-friendly sitting area that includes a futon, end table, and boot tray. A washer and dryer are also in this unit.

Great ski trip!

Great stay at Beech Mountain. Clean, well-equipped rental with owners who were available to answer questions whenever needed. As an FYI, ski in/ ski out is located on. Green slope (utilized like a second bunny slope) who’s lift closes at 5pm.

True ski in ski out

Excellent location and enjoyed our stay. Particularly enjoyed night skiing - mountain is very well lit and the location was perfect for me as I was able to come back and check on my dog multiple times. This was invaluable to me. Unit is well equipment and in good condition. I would recommend to other guests.

Wonderful time!

We had such a wonderful time here, it was lovely. There was awesome communication as well from the owners, as well as nice and new to us recommendations. A really nice location on the slope, really cozy as well. So glad we had the opportunity to stay here, would definitely recommend it if you’re thinking about it, or had littles or someone that is new to skiing/snowboarding.

Amazing Stay!

This property was a perfect fit for our family! Very clean, the communication was wonderful, and location couldn't be better! We would absolutely stay here again! The hosts were amazing enough to message us to let us know we had left our 3 year old's baby blanket. They are working to get it returned to us, which we appreciate so much! Not all hosts would do this, so 10/10 recommend this place!

Beautiful spot at Beech Mountain!

The property was great. The only downside was we arrived a tad too early for the ski in-ski out because Beech Mountain did not groom the slope directly in front of the Chalet therefore the climb in ski boots would have been killer. I recommend booking mid December or later if the ski in/ski out is a must. The hosts were amazing and very communicative. I highly recommend this location!

Fantastic Ski-In/Ski-Out with Stunning Views

My wife and I visited for a week in January to go skiing. We usually go to Beech Mountain a couple of times a year and have stayed in many different spots on and off the mountain. This is, without a doubt, our favorite spot so far!It’s a true ski-in/ski-out location—literally walk out the bottom-floor door, and you’re just seconds away from a slope. The property is also very close to Fred’s General Mercantile and several food spots, which is super convenient. You get a reserved parking spot right in front of the stairs to the main door (just a few steps away!), which I personally loved.The house itself is well-equipped, with three floors, four bathrooms, and plenty of beds to accommodate a group. The view from the outdoor balcony overlooking the Beech Resort area is fantastic! Other thoughtful touches include Firesticks on all the TVs so you can access Hulu, Netflix, Apple TV, etc. The kitchen has a coffee pot, a Keurig, and a water kettle for tea drinkers.Overall, this place is cozy, well-appointed, and has all the conveniences you could ask for. Highly recommend it—we’ll definitely be back next year!
