The perfect place for a Skiing, Spring, Summer or Fall getaway. Enjoy the charm of the Town of Beech Mountain with its winter wonderland setting during skiing months as well as unhurried pace and cool temperatures during our non-ski season. The town of Beech Mountain is the highest incorporated city east of the Mississippi River with year-round comfortable temperatures (OK-maybe the ski season temperatures are darn cold, but it is winter on a mountain after all).

4900+ square foot log home in moderately wooded setting located near by town's recreational facilities and 2.1 miles from Ski Beech entrance.

Home's exterior is field stone and cedar shake. The Lodge's interior, which is almost exclusively wood, creates rustic atmosphere with modern conveniences. Wood beamed ceilings throughout. Many of the walls are 16'-24' thick hand-hewn logs. Interior materials are recycled from 148 year-old grist mill located in Chatham, Virginia; the 142 year-old Reedy Fork Mill formerly outside Winston-Salem, NC; and, a barn of unknown age and origin.

Living room, dining room, and kitchen floors are hardwood (area rug covers almost all of living room); all halls and bedrooms are carpeted and bathrooms are ceramic tiled.

Large living room with over-sized wood burning fireplace (firewood provided). Dining room is 10' x 35' and seats 30 at one sitting. Kitchen has flat-surface stove top, separate flat-surfaced stove with self-cleaning oven, combination microwave/range hood and two GE refrigerators with icemakers. Wood deck is 18' x 18' with perimeter bench seating and over-sized commercial gas grill.

TV room has 55" Samsung flat panel smart TV with YouTube TV digital streaming service, high-speed broadband internet access, VCR/DVD player and surround sound system as well as a queen-size sleeper sofa, which may be used as eleventh bedroom. Third floor hallway has foyer with large window seat, sofa, and 42' flat panel TV with YouTube TV and a PlayStation 4 game system.

An Amazing Weekend Stay
The house was in an amazing location and there were plenty of attractions within a short drive of the house. John was the most helpful host we have ever worked with, he was easily accessible the entire weekend and called to welcome us upon arrival. The house was great for our large group with amazing features - a favorite of ours was the piano! We definitely recommend this house!

Wonderful Host!
John is truly an amazing host. Thought we didn’t make it to the property due to the Hurricane, John communicated the entire time, kept me up to date with weather conditions and kept my family and I safety as his main priority. He was communicative and very caring in the process! I look forward to revoking his place very soon!

Amazing accommodations!
Property is beautiful and had more than enough room and space! We booked this house for friends and family to stay during our wedding weekend. All the guests had great things to say! John the host was very communicative and responsive. The only thing to note is that it wasn’t communicated to us until 3 days before our stay that paper products such as toilet paper and paper towels are not provided. It would have been nice to have that stated in the listing (had to coordinate buying that after I had already started traveling). Otherwise, it seemed like everything else you would need was there!

This house was filthy!
This house needs a total overhaul! We arrived to four bag of trash on the front porch that we had to remove. There were no clean towels-there were piled up in a closet. I called and texted the owner but he wasn’t able to do anything about the houses condition! Do not stay here! Dead trees fallen on the property. The furniture, rugs, shower curtains, toilets, shower heads, windows all need scrubbing! There need to be upgrades to include basic screens and rotten wood replaced! I’ve never seen a rental this bad. I have reached out for a P refund and only had a cleaning fee refunded. The owner communicates but doesn’t seem to understand the gravity of his home’s disarray! The grill was filthy, the deck boards are rotting, there is rotten wood on windows, on the entrance walkway,. Some of the windows have no screens and they were all filthy with bugs and mold! And that’s important because it’s the only way to cool the house down… also, there was mold on a shower curtain and a shower head. A toilet that rocked and was “fixed” with cardboard to try to stop that problem. In a house for 30 people, you could hardly move in the kitchen! When you opened a cupboard door it hit the fan. And then there were the sheets!! Filthy, crumbs and other stuff were in the bedsheets. One of the bunk beds had been peed in and the sheets and blanket was still damp😮. The bedspreads were old and not clean. I will never recommend VRBO again.what kind of business is it that allows such properties!

A few Alumni members of our baseball team stayed here and enjoyed their experience. Everything was clean and well-looked after. The communication with the property manager was especially good. The directions were clear. All info we needed was provided. The building's history is very interesting. All around good stay.

Won't recommend!
10 rooms but they are all super tiny. Top floor is like a hot furnace. No A/c, no fan. We couldn't use the top floor at all. People slept on the floor instead. 🔥 Bathrooms don't have soap or toilet rolls. Bring your own. Washer and dryer don't work. The owner /property manager is a gem of a human being. Kind and gentle. He was very quick with responses, and provided a lot of useful info. Perhaps that's the only good thing about this property that is worth mentioning.

Family Long Weekend
From age 78 to 3 years, our family of 16 people, enjoyed staying here. There were a few issues because of the previous tenets but the owner was very helpful in working with us on everything. The kitchen was a little smaller than I had thought it would be for a house that can hold 30 people - but we were able to grill steaks, hamburgers and have taco night in our three night stay without any issues! It was a great weekend and John is great to work with!

Family Gathering
Unique Log Home is a fitting description. The house has good bones, spacious and the location is beautiful. Space worked well for a family gathering of about 20 people. Furniture and carpeting need updated, as do some of the bathrooms. But overall the space worked well. Did enjoy the large eating area. That said, the house is in need of upgrades in appliances, furniture and carpeting. It is also in need of some general maintenance throughout.. Outside deck is a great space, with a beautiful view. However, it is in need of a good cleaning and staining. That said, host did give us a heads up. Firepit was enjoyable and we used it every night. Firewood was provided, which was convenient and appreciated, but no furniture was provided. The surrounding yard needs maintenance, grass needs to be cut, debris removed and some dead trees taken down. All in all we had a great time with family and enjoyed our stay on Beech Mountain. The large, spacious house worked for our group.

John was amazing. The cabin was so cute. A lot of character. I love the way that a lot of the word in the house is 140 years old. John was so accommodating. There was enough bedrooms and bathrooms for all 24 of our guests to stay and then some. I would definitely recommend staying at the cabin again. It definitely accommodated are ever need. The kids love the fire pit outside and the fireplace inside. We had s’mores every single night.
