The location was perfect! The snow-lovers were right on the slopes and the others could watch the skiers go by on the slope from the cozy inside. The house was spacious and perfect for our family get together! Thank you to the Hosts for being available to answer our questions!
We loved the location. Itâs directly on the slope. We enjoyed skiing in and out of our house and really enjoyed watching everyone skiing. We had an issue with the power and the host was very prompt in responding and getting an electrician out to try and fix it. We had 8 adults, but it could have easily slept several more.
Great spot right on the slope, love the big windows and the views

Enjoyed watching the skiers and snowboarders ski right by the porches and watch them from inside through the big windows. Liked looking out at the Mountain View. Plenty of room in the house for everyone. We had a great time and the snow was beautiful to see. Everyone enjoyed being able to ski right up to the house. Has to be one of the best and one of the biggest houses on the ski slope. Our second year staying at this house, we love it!
This property was amazing! Would love to stay here again. Directly on the slope, able to see the skiers come by right outside the window which the grandparents loved! 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 sitting areas. Location perfect!!

Great location, a lot of room, good setup for skiing and boarding.
We were really excited about going up to Beech Mountain. This area is our favourite getaway. The view was awesome but the rental had a lot to be desired. When we arrived there, the house had a musty smell and warm inside. We immediately decided to turn on the A/C to only discover there was no A/C even though the rental description stated A/C. Then we decide to open the windows and door to attempt to cool the living area down. One window did not have a screen, the others, except for one, had holes in the screens where flying insects could enter. As the weekend progressed, we noted other issues. The kitchen and both upstairs bathroom faucets leaked, the microwave was filty and had to be washed to use. The refrigerator was not cooling properly and we could not store perishables. Some of the windows were fogged due to being old. The commode seat in the bedroom's bathroom had a foam type seat that has a split into the center that can harbor bacteria and considered filty. The handsoap, in one of the bathroom, had been watered down to the point the water separated from the liquid soap. We did have a great time at Beech Mountain as usual so the weekend was not a total disaster but this rental property has a lot to be desired and I could not recommend unless some issues were addressed as stated above. This place does have a great location for ski-in and ski-out on Uppper Shawneehaw and may be great in the winter. We did try to contact the rental company but they were closed .
We loved this house!! Great view of snowboarders and skiers. I could sit by window and watch the kids and grandkids going down the slopes! This year got the bad storm night before we left so alittle tricky going down the mountain but roads were plowed even though it was -15 degreesâŠ.looking forward to going back next year!!
We had a wonderful time. Lots of snow. Beautiful views. Fully stocked. I would recommend this property as it has it all. Directly onto slopes with easy access. Will keep in mind for future use!

We have stayed here before, but you cannot beat the views and access to the slopes. Literally 5 or 6 steps to Upper Shawneehaw slope.Been renting from Beech Mountain Chalet Rentals for over 20 years, they always take care of us!
The house was nice and the views are spectacular! It was a real bummer that hardly any of the windows open so in the summer time, there was minimal airflow during the day and it actually got hot at night despite the 50degree temps. There was also a good bit of mold growth in the showers that needs to be cleaned up.

The area, general store, restaurants, ski resort, views, activities, etc... are all amazing. The house is located in a great spot (slope side) and has wonderful views.Inside the unit was just OK despite having plenty of rooms and sleeping options. I understand it has recently been purchased with plans to update it, which is needed since we did have several problems. I would not stay there again until it has been updated. PS - The guys who came out to service the property were excellent. They were fast, reliable, and friendly.

The unit has a good layout. 3 full bathrooms and four decent size rooms. Fully stocked kitchen. The views are INCREDIBLE. Parking was not ideal. One of the two parking spots were not plowed.

Visit was scheduled to coincide with Broad-winged Hawk migration. We were able to see over 3,500 hawks migrating to South America, most flying directly overhead. Hundreds of other birds were moving up the ski slope in their migration south and provided good entertainment during the morning hours. The house and furnishings were fine. The outside of the house could use some attention but was not anything to cause us to not choose the location again. We visited Fredâs a couple of times for necessities and found most everything we needed. The gas grill worked well - used it twice. ...ordered a pizza from the Brick Oven - it was ok but a bit pricey. Our visit was to watch birds and this location was perfect as suggested by the rental management. Beautiful sunrise and stars were magnificent when the sky was clear. Wouldnât recommend to a friend for the same time frame because we want to come back but it would be recommended for any other time - ha! It would probably be a great place for a family ski trip but we donât ski so we would have to leave that to others. We visited Blowing Rock on Saturday and enjoyed the short trip. Great week by our standards.

This house has a fabulous location and great views! We had plenty of room for our family. I highly recommend this property.
We had an amazing stay! The views were breathtaking. Very easy access to the slopes. We got to watch our kids snowboard all day through the windows and the deck. You definitely want an all-wheel-drive just in case you get snowed in. We were able to shovel our way out and they plowed the roads so we got lucky. You also want to remember to bring ice! We kept forgetting to get it whenever we went down to Fredâs general store. The house was fully stocked and it really helped that we didnât have to bring linens or towels. The beds were super comfy! The coffee maker is a drip so you will need ground coffee not K cups. The spiral staircase to the bottom level is pretty narrow so you may want to keep that in mind just in case you plan to have elderly or disabled members in your group. They would need to stay on the top level. Getting luggage down the spiral staircase was entertaining. But it all worked out and we had a great stay. The space heaters were a big help! Especially downstairs. Downstairs got very cold very quickly. The space heaters did the trick!
For the rental company⊠it would be helpful to have more information on the general information sheet we get when we check in. For example, I had to go and search for the contract to find out that we had to carry the trash down to Fredâs. This information was not on the information sheet. Also the Wi-Fi didnât work. The code on the sheet was incorrect. Luckily we found the code inside the house on the router.
We enjoyed our stay and canât wait to return. Our vacation was definitely a success and this house made that possible! Thank you!!

What a wonderful location. House had everything we needed from potable heaters, crock pot, cookie sheets, Etc. Windows provide 360 views at top of Beech, amazing Leto into slip ski access, updated looks, clean, charming atmosphere that made staying inside just as fun as being on the slopes. The house is 3 miles from pizza parlor and Fred general store. Management couldnât have been nicer!!! It was an incredible time!!! If you want a mix of quaint relaxation, easy access to food, and slope side with great views- this is the house
We had a few college friends come and stay for 3 nights (February 2021). The house is situated right on the slope and we all seriously laughed way harder than we should have at the skiers and snowboarders. The house is well equipped with kitchen needs. Due to the snow the house only had one parking place but they had enough parking for us below at the check in office. The house is comfy, heat worked great. The island in the kitchen has a bend to it, donât line your bottles up on it, they will slide off. The pillows left a lot to be desired but man the view was absolutely amazing. The set up was super nice with a queen room up and the 4 bunks upstairs. Down was 2 queens and a daybed. The bathrooms were all functional and easy access. Good closet and storage room. Other than the need of a deep clean (the windows need a good pressure wash) it really was perfect. We will keep it on the list for yearly visits.
*Ps if it has snowed or snow is coming take a shovel. We had to shovel the deck so we werenât standing in knee deep snow while we watched the slope.
