Gorgeous Home
When we first walked in, we thought it seemed kind of small, until we realized that it goes down two stories into the side of the mountain, with the bedrooms and game room being on the lower levels. This was an absolutely beautiful and quiet place to stay. We had deer come right up to the balcony every morning, and we were able to watch people cycle down the side of the mountain and ride the ski lift back up. The community was very peaceful and the drive up and down to the home was beautiful! I do wish the location was a little more secluded, but since we were there for the Bristol NASCAR race, it was a great little getaway during our down time. The beds were unbelievably comfortable!

Gorgeous, cozy home on Beech
Amazing home close to the slopes. We could not ski in or out per se but they have such wonderful touches here- especially the shower and coffee bar. So amazing! Loved it here!!! They had a Christmas tree and a warm fire place. Was so cozy! Highly recommend!

Comfortable and Great slope side views
Well appointed Townhouse. Loved the views and crisp fall evenings. The Master bed was so comfortable. We really appreciated the Coffee Bar which is very well stocked. Only wish the FP worked but no big deal as we enjoyed our stay anyway. The neighborhood and location is excellent. Susan

Hurricane of financial losses
The Hurricane washed away sections of two highways to get to the property. Vacasa was unhelpful, wouldn’t give me a refund and could only offer me weekday bookings as compensation. Because I didn’t pay extra for insurance I get screwed and lose $700 because of a natural disaster! Terrible customer service.

Exceptional location & property!
This is a 5 star property in a prime location on Beech Mountain. Clean and easy access on arrival, this could sleep 6 but we were only 2. 2 1/2 baths make it a bonus for multiple guests on this 3 floor property. Note to the owners: Front door weatherstripping is hanging loose, lock mortise in jamb had been split, perhaps from a forced entry by prior guest, suggest repair. Flag pole on front parking side deck was broken off on arrival, suggest repair. These are simply observations and recommendations, none of which affected our stay or use of the property. HIGHLY RECOMMEND AND WILL BE BACK ON OUR NEXT TRIP TO THE BOONE/BEECH MTN AREA. AGAIN 5 STARS!!!

Beautiful home and view
This home was booked for myself, and my husband and my parents for our birthdays! It did not disappoint! It had a beautiful view and beautiful Decor inside! Even though we had a problem with the fireplace, we were able to call this vacasa up and then we figured it out. It was a little frustrating at first to be honest but once we got it working, we were able to sit and enjoy it! One of my concerns with that the pictures are misleading and they did not tell us that a spiral staircase is involved in all 3 floors of the house and not just to the third-floor basement. With that being said, it was really difficult for my mom to have to go down the steps just to get to her bedroom. But she managed, and she was a trooper! Over all the house was everything that we could’ve expected and more, and we will be back! It was affordable and welcoming to our fur babies as well! As a teacher, affordable is key!

Beautiful, comfortable mountain retreat -- with a caution
This is a beautiful, comfortable home and we enjoyed our stay. The decor was very mountainy, the kitchen was well stocked, the furniture and beds were comfortable, and the linens and towels were appropriate. My caution to future renters: the outside decks and interior open staircase are a danger for kids (probably under age 8) and dogs. Do your homework and really study the 3d tour

Nice and cozy!
We are mountain bikers and have stayed in several properties on Beech Mountain. This property is spacious and the view from the living area is excellent. We really enjoyed the balcony spaces as well. There is a coffee bar in the dining area that is very cute and thoughtful. Excellent addition to the space! It is a bit dated in terms of the bathrooms, fixtures, microwave, etc. These things did not bother us or prevent us from enjoying this home.

Dated Property
Nice location but property is dated. Would have liked to have a toaster. And would have liked explicit instructions about how to use the two remotes for tv. Never got the tv to work in the bedroom. Key storage box would not work also. Luckily when I arrived to check in , the cleaning people just handed me the key. No area to walk a dog available.
