Neat little place

For the price this little cabin was perfectly fine. There were a couple areas that needed attention, primarily the bathrooms, but otherwise it was fine. Location was great and the price was right. Would definitely stay again.

Nice cozy home

It was very clean, had all the necessities. There were a couple of things...we didnt see a propane grill only charcoal and the bottom piece to let it vent was broken but we were still able to use it, just carefully. Idk if we weren't doing something right or what but we couldnt get the big kitchen window to lock or the living room.

The cabin is in a great location, we loved the fireplace and enjoyed the view with a warm hot chocolate. The oven in the Kitchen it wasn't working well, but we could manage. Close to the cabin you can find restaurants, entertainment and markets. The cabin was clean, provided some wood and very cozy blankets, and they have a good wifi signal too. Definitely we will come back again! Take in mind that you have to walk stairs to go into the cabin , for us that wasn't a big problem, we love to hike ;)

Great location

We came up to get away from the hustle and bustle of work and everything each of us has going on. This house definitely helped us unwind. Great location. The house had everything we needed but a pizza cutter but we used a knife so we were good. Those steps to the house will let you know that you're out of shape for sure. You will also use steps going to the firepit area as well. So keep that in mind (in case anyone has a issue with stairs) If you can definitely ride the alpine roller-coaster.

The location was great, the house is very old, the furniture were very old and large for a such a small living room, the equipment are very old, but it was wonderful for us staying in a cold climate and appreciate our Florida.

The stairs to the cabin were many, but they were brand new and not slippery. The lights didn’t work well along the steps, but we used our phone lights. The loft is not going to be usable to everyone, but our 13 yo son loved it. This house was perfect for us.

The property was nice; location was good. The backyard was a bit overgrown, and the firepit was unkept and had trash in it. The cabin was comfortable and it was very nice. The landscaping needs some improvements. Overall I would say 8/10. Would stay again with updates.

Adequate for my 2 adults sons and I for 2 nights. House furnishings are a little data, but not bad for the price. The grounds could be better attended to in addition to more detail given towards those laundering the bed linens.

Could do better

Conveniently located, if you want to hit the slopes this house is only 5min away from Beech Mountain and 30min away from Sugar Mountain. My family and I had a great experience, however the cleanliness of the place did not meet our standards. The couch, carpet and throw blankets were full of long, white dog hair, the laundry room had dirty towels and we found dirty socks in the main bedroom closet and the coffee maker had a huge hole. This property has a lot of potential, just needs a little Tlc, I wish I could give this property a better rate.

Ski Trip.

This house was so relaxing. We were 5 mins away from beech mountain. The fire place was really nice to enjoy along with some board games. The bears came every night and sit on the porch. So cool! Just kidding. The only problem we had was that the dish washer was broken, and the master bedrooms bed was full of dog hair. We washed the blankets and pillow cases, which I don’t think was our job to do. Those two things just are not enough for me to write a bad review to a place we enjoyed so much. If the bed was clean it would have gotten 5 stars.

Good but bare minimum

The house has a strong musty smell after you walk in. It appeared to be clean, but some stuff just doesn't appear clean after being so old. We purchased batteries to the TV remotes so we could watch TV and we purchased coffee filters so we could make coffee (Coffee, coffee maker, and coffee grinder were there)--had to do the paper towel filter the first day, but now there are over 90 filters for future visitors! It would be helpful if there were instructions on how to enter the property and how to use the split units. We had to look up the model of the split units to be able to decipher what all the symbols meant on the remotes while we were freezing trying to heat the place. Also, parking in the driveway is on a different street, but make sure you have a 4-wheel drive vehicle to be able to access the entry to the driveway. We decided the safer option was to stay at the top of the property on the side of the road.

This should NOT be available

We made a 2 day journey to get to this house, not realizing we had to take all of our belongings down almost a 3 set staircase that was pretty steep and narrow. We later searched for the lower entry that allows you to go up 2 sets of stairs instead. First night we noticed all the outlets are extremely loose (not something that can be tightened, full replacement needed, which was offered later). The plugs mostly stayed but the metal prongs hung low which was a toddler nightmare. The following morning we noticed the master bath had tiles missing and shattered ones sticking up, along with a black mold filled standing shower. The other bathroom was clean but the tub didn’t plug unfortunately, something to keep in mind if you have kids. The last straw was following my toddler around the house into the master room just to find him seconds away from eating a pill he found next to the bed. We looked it up & it was a 20mg anti depressant. Overall really disgusted with the house condition and lack of effort for cleaning. The management company initially offered to waive my cleaning fee, which was comical. 10+ calls later and 7 hours of communication via email and text (they prefer text) we got transferred to a house after less than friendly frustration. If you’re looking to enjoy your stay, I highly recommend looking elsewhere. Vacasa : 0/10

Solid!

I’d say this cabin met expectations very well! Great living room and big wrap around porch for gathering spaces, big windows, small kitchen with older appliances but everything worked well, easy to control temperature, and good beds to collapse in. On the spectrum of rustic to plush, I’d say it falls pretty squarely in the middle. Wifi was a little hit or miss and there were a few areas in the master bathroom that had been repaired for function but definitely not aesthetics. But the price was great and we like Beech as a base camp for the surrounding area. This location would also be superb for skiing. Overall, thumbs up! Would stay again.

Great location, cute cabin

We enjoyed our stay at this cabin. We came for the Woolly Worm Festival, and had a great weekend. The location and views are amazing. The only issue we had was the air/heat units didn’t work properly. It was very cold inside that first evening, as the wall units did not seem to be working, and only some of the baseboard heaters worked. Throughout the night, the wall units came in and we woke up hot. The rest of the trip, the wall units wouldn’t turn on whether we pushed the button for heat, cool, or fan. I’m not sure if it was user error or technical l problems, but either way, they should be fixed or instructions left for visitors. We liked the layout of the cabin and loved the fully stocked kitchen. Other than the heating issue, we enjoyed our stay. Helpful tip: your GPS might take you to the lower entry of the property. It is a gravel drive that is too steep for most vehicles. If this happens, go right back out and then down the street. Turn right onto Dogwood lane to find the actual entry.
