Snowy Mountain Getaway

The house was fantastic with views from almost every room. The homeowner was very helpful, especially since we had a major snowstorm and some issues with the roads. The house was very well laid out and had all the necessary amenities. We love the fireplace and the Christmas decorations. I would highly recommend this house for families, looking to have a true mountain vacation.

Great place to stay close to beech

This was an amazing place to stay. The host was very responsive to any questions that came up. There were also a great supply of supplies to deal with the winter storm that rolled in. This allowed us to really enjoy our time on the slopes. This was a great home to enjoy Christmas with the family.

Wonderful time

The view was incredible. The cabin house close to so many attractions. We really enjoyed having dinner outside with the mountains view. The open floor plan was perfect for our group of 7 including 3 teenagers. House was clean and well stocked with kitchen supplies. Plenty of towels and extra sheets. Communication with the owner was excellent. We will be coming back. We really enjoyed the Banner Elk area and restaurants. Thanks for the restaurants recommendations and the binder with additional information.

A breath of fresh air

We booked this home for our family Spring Break vacation. We converge at this beautiful mountain retreat escaping the oppressions of large metropolitan center in South Florida and Philadelphia. It provided a most welcome breath of fresh air and peace. It is a great HOME away from home. It is cozy, comfortable and welcoming... just perfect for our family gathering (3 generations, 8 people) On the practical side considering location, size, amenities and price, it was a great value.

Perfect Spring Skiing Getaway

We loved staying at this beautiful home in a quiet gated community. The house provided everything we needed and more. So spacious and cozy, we could all gather together comfortably or spread out to the bedrooms, workout room, gaming areas, porch, backyard or living room. The convenience and ease to go skiing, out to eat or shopping was a plus. One of our favorite unexpected surprises was feeding the deer with the corn provided! We’ve stayed in Beech Mtn many times over the years and this was by far our favorite home away from home!

The owners made the whole process so easy, which was great. The house was spacious and very homey. The deck looked straight out to Grandfather Mountain and Sugar Mountain to the southwest. Views were amazing and sitting above the clouds was captivating. Excellent house/location.

Beech Mountain Getaway

The house was very well equipped for a family gathering. Very clean. The open plan including the kitchen, dining room and living room was terrific. The windows at the rear of the house took advantage of the spectacular mountain views to the east and south. Full length decks across the first floor and the lower level were well furnished. Lots to do nearby and perfect weather made our vacation one of the best ever.

Escape from the Coastal Heat

Genuinely great house. Spectacular views of the clouds sifting through the trees in the valley below. Loads of space to hang out in groups or all together. I will say though, if you want the views... you gotta get up the mountain! The roads are fully paved and in perfect condition. Just make sure you're driving something with a decent engine and good tire thread.

One of the Best

My family and I have been staying in Beech Mountain for the last 20 plus years. This home has to rank at the top. The home is very well kept up and very well stocked with everything you need. The views off the back patio are incredible. I was able to speak with the owner anytime I had a question, he was very quick to respond. I highly recommend this rental Jack

Fabulous stay

We spent 2 weeks at the property. The location is actually closer to Beech Mountain and was perfect. Only a couple of blocks from Fred’s. The house was fully equipped and perfect for our group of 5 older teen/ adult children. The house has a pool table, foosball table, hot tub and gym, all of which we used. The views were beyond spectacular. And the owner was extremely responsive and helpful. I highly recommend this property.

Beautiful home with a gorgeous view.

We enjoyed the home. The view was unbeatable. Lots of parking in the driveway. There was a book with a very thorough list of rules. It took some of the fun out of staying there, to be honest. People who are not big rule followers will probably not be bothered. Overall it was a good experience. The management and owners are very responsive and helpful. I would recommend the home.

About the host

Hosted by Jerry Noel

Host profile image
We split our time between the mountains of North Carolina and our Florida home. Absolutely love the mountains, enjoy skiing, hiking, sightseeing, and boating. It is our goal to provide the best value possible for our guests.

Why they chose this property

We chose this house because it represents freedom from the everyday rush and brings us back to the things we value most - family, home, nature, cool breezes, the sounds of birds, a deer in the back yard, setting in a swing set looking at the fall leaves, outdoor meals or simply roasting marshmallows in the fire pit on the deck or listing to the babbling brook. To me, it is simply beautiful!

What makes this property unique

Views, Views and Views. Location near everything, easy to get to in any weather. Pool Table, Exercise Room and Spa. Modern, yet downright comfortable!
