Legal Beech Bum Mountain Legal Retreat

Located in the heart of the magnificent Beech Mountain, this 2 bedroom with loft attracts the active vacationer as well as those seeking a relaxed get-away. The house has beautiful scenic views from the deck in the back of the house. The fireplace and quaint cottage feel provide a wonderful retreat. The amenities to the club (which are available in season) must be transferred to the guest by the owner. The Owner maintains the Sports Membership. For $300.00 for 30 days, first time guests have unlimited use of the clay tennis court, the pickle ball court, the swimming pool, recreation center and fitness center. The Owner must transfer the membership to the guest.
Additionally, guests can play as they go at the 18 hole Willard Byrd golf course, and have use of the club dining room. Our fitness center also has a separate cardio room with all new state of the art equipment (tread mills, spin bikes, stair master, rowing machine, etc. ) All of the equipment in the fitness and cardio center was installed in April, 2024. Yoga and stretch and tone classes are also held week days at the fitness center.
Beech Mountain is located 5500 feet above sea level, and is walking distance to Ski Beech Mountain and 5 minutes from Sugar Mountain. There is fine dining in casual restaurants as well as shopping.
There is an additional guest fee per stay of $50.00 if there are more than 6 guests. There is also a non-refundable $200.00 pet deposit. One one small dog is permitted.
Legal Beech Bum has a nice, new clean look for 2024. The interior was painted and updated. Come relax and enjoy my paradise! The landscape beauty and wildlife surround you during any season of the year. Quite often, there are more deer than people!

White Christmas!

This was simply perfect and cozy. We had an amazing stay. The place was beautiful and clean and overall small enough for that cozy feeling but big enough for 3 adults and 3 kids. We saw snow and the trees were all covered and the place was quiet but close to everything we needed. Definitely would rent this place again.

Beech Mtn Show

This was the perfect spot to see the summer concert series. Easily within walking distance. Communication with the owners was excellent. There is one full bathroom and a half bath. The porch was perfect to watch the deer and relax on. We really enjoyed our stay here and would return.

Just what we needed

This place was perfect for our first family ski trip. It's a great location just across from Beech Mountain Ski Resort and just up the mountain from Banner Elk. The house is cozy, but had plenty of room for four adults. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen included all we needed for meals. The dishwasher is a bit noisy so we ended up washing dishes by hand. Other than that everything we good. It snowed while we were there and we made a nice fire in the fireplace. We loved watching the birds and deer. We also enjoyed Fred's General Store, Banner Elk Cafe, a pizza place, and a BBQ joint. It was a nice little winter wonderland ahead of Christmas. Thank you for a great home base for our trip!

Very Cozy

We stayed at the home with one other couple. The home was perfect for 2 couples as it was not too big, but had two bathrooms. The deck is completely fenced and gated, which was great for the dog; she loved sitting out there watching nature. We were there for skiing, so the location could not have been better. The entire home was extremely clean, which is saying a lot as I am quite a fussy housekeeper. My only concern with the property is that it is not wheelchair accessible, as noted on the listing. One of our party was able to walk only short distances and navigate 5-6 stairs. I contacted the owner, who advised me that there were a few stairs to access the deck but once on the deck everything is on one level. We were fine with that, however my concern is that someone who notes the wheelchair accessible designation may be misguided and believe that the property is wheelchair accessible from the outside. All-in-all a great experience with VRBO and would stay in the home again.

College tour and mountain bike race, base of operations.

Our stay was fantastic and the house was perfect! Weather was typical for the high country mountains, afternoon / evening storms but gorgeous during the day and a lot cooler than home. We didn’t spend a lot of time at the house due to our plans but the time there was relaxing and plenty of room for our group to unwind after or days of touring and racing in Banner Elk. Would definitely stay here again.

Fun time

We had a great time in the cabin. The new sofa and bedroom furniture was very comfortable. The bedding and towels were soft and cozy. We chose this property because of the availability of using the Club's amenities. ( Be aware, the club now charges a $200 transfer fee above what you will spend on the golf course and at the restaurants.) We cooked in a lot and could have used a sheet pan and a tea pitcher. But, that is very minor compared to the nice time we had in the cabin.

Cabin was Perfect

The cabin was perfect. The living room and kitchen were much larger than we expected. It had pretty much anything you’d need. We read another review that mentioned a lack of casserole dishes. That was helpful as we just picked up disposable aluminum foil pans on the way. We sure were hoping for snow. We got rain. A lot of rain. When it wasn’t raining, the deck was lovely and our dog most certainly enjoyed the deer family. We picked up a lot of mud on our shoes while walking the dog and hiking. It may have been there, but we simply couldn’t find a dust pan. Ended up sweeping the dirt into a little pile in the corner. The Wifi was strong and the TV picture was really good. Day 1: We went for a hike and explored Beech Mtn and Banner Elk Day 2: Went snowtubing at Sugar Day 3: Went skiing at Beech. Conditions were terrible! There’s nothing anyone can do about the weather, but we still had a lovely time! Thank you.
