Beech Retreat

Myself, my friend, and my two dogs had a wonderful time here at Beech Retreat! The location was amazing and only took about a 3 minute drive to get to the slopes. We loved the deck, beautiful view, and of course the hot tub was a hit! We also loved interacting with the very friendly deer who visited frequently! I will definitely be back in the future!

This location was great! About 10 minutes from Beech Mountain Ski Resort. It was also more secluded and didn’t feel like your neighbors were super close!

We had a wonderful stay. The Christmas decorations were amazing. The cabin is close to Beech Mountain and there was so much to do in the area. There was a Wi-Fi issue when we arrived that also impacted the code for the door. I called the after hours number and they addressed it quickly.

Great place to stay close to the Ski lodge! It is a quick drive to get to the lodge, definitely recommend 4-wheel drive and/or chains if the weather is bad. We were there after 3-4in of snow which made the place even better! We kept a fire going to whole time we were there, used the hot tub and the dogs loved watching the deer! I recommend staying here for anyone looking to ski, but it is also close enough to plenty of hikes and things to do in the summer!

Our stay was great. Nice and peaceful. Only a short drive to Beech Ski Resort and Downtown Beech Mountain. Every morning we were greeted by the neighborhood deer!

Loved, loved, loved the Beech Retreat! A cozy comfortable cabin with great views and amenities. The deer were eating apples right out of our children's hands…which was the highlight of their trip! We enjoyed the Christmas decorations and of course, the hot tub! We would love to come back again!

Incredible set up! We enjoyed the wonderful house. Very clean. Perfectly as described. Easy check in and check out. Close to everything! The deer in the yard were a wonderful treat!

If you are looking for a quiet place in the mountains with a great view look no further. This house is very well maintained and extremely clean. The hot tub on cool nights was a treat as well. Highly recommend for anyone. Will try to stay again next year for homecoming.

This home rental was phenomenal! First, let's start with the property; SO MANY DEER. They are very used to human interaction, even came when we called them, eating out of our hand and letting us pet them. Be aware of the fact that they are EVERYWHERE. Drive accordingly. We had several lovely encounters with the plentiful deer over our 3 day stay. We have stayed in MANY mountain cabins. Beech Mtn is especially nice as the main roads are all paved and well-marked. A REAL blessing in the dark, rain, and/or snow/ice. The cabin- SO CLEAN. Again, we rent homes often and as a general rule, it is a hit or miss with cleaning. This place was VERY clean. The cabin was decorated with Fall themed decor, both inside and out, and I LOVED IT! Lots of extras- I won't go into describing all of the extra and thoughtful things the owners do to make your experience so lovely, because I don't know how long they will keep it up, but for example, there were supplies there so that if you arrived at night, you had enough coffee, sweetener and creamer to make a cup before heading down the mountain to get additional supplies. There was an obvious effort to make renters of this home FEEL at home. My hope for the thoughtful owner and cleaning service is that all future renters care for this home as much as the owners care about the quality of your stay. Please....treat the owners and the home the same as they treat you; with a lot of respect for your time and money. LOTS of storage in this home. An almost empty cabinet in the kitchen for your pantry goods, bathrooms full of storage space, and HOOKS. Lots of them! I will never understand a rental home that does not have hooks everywhere possible. Every renter needs and wants them. This house has plenty! The views are fantastic! I would take down a few trees, but they do not prevent you from spectacular sunset views of the mountain, or, on a clear day, seeing the beautiful homes and rolling valleys off in the distance. Again, lots of attention paid to the details. There are several sitting areas, an expansive deck, and even the surrounding property is gorgeous. We loved the picture windows in the bedrooms. The hot tub is new and powerful! Choose between jets for your feet, or jets for your back. Lovely after a day of hiking. I have run out of characters to continue praising this home and owner. :) It is a LOVELY home, property and experience! You will NOT regret choosing this home.

Great location and the perfect size for the three of us. Easy drive to Grandfather Mountain, Valle Crucis and Blowing Rock.

Had a wonderful time. Everything we needed was at our fingertips. Very clean. Staff was great, communication was great. Just an overall wonderful getaway. Thank you!

We enjoy the Banner Elk area tremendously! This was the best place we have ever stayed. The view, the hot tub, and the many little amenities - plus cleanliness were exceptional.

We had a wonderful stay at Beech Mountain. The location is good. We saw lots of wildlife in the area. The first night a black bear walked across the deck.

This was a lovely home for our family of four. The porch and outside deck area is great, our kids loved sitting/playing out there. Everything was very clean. The hot tub is an especially nice touch and has exact instructions on how to use/unlock which was helpful. We enjoyed our time here and hope to return next year.

- Heather, Posted: 03/15/2022

This is a good place to stay very beautiful views and the property is in a great location. The wildlife is awesome to watch come up and down the mountain side. Not to far from everything but far enough to feel like you are alone in the mountains. Would strongly suggest this property to anyone.

Freshly remodeled property, well maintained and clean. Large hot tub. Our family of 5 enjoyed the cozy space. Nice deck/views. 4 wheel drive is a must in winter. 7-8 min drive to Beech Mtn.

- Jamie, Posted: 02/02/2022

Perfect location for a mountain getaway! Close to the slopes to enjoy all outdoor winter activities and minutes from the downtown sledding hill for even more fun in the snow. We can't wait to come back!

- Jillian, Posted: 01/26/2022

What a great trip!! We had a wonderful time. Winter storm Izzy couldn't get us down! Lots of fun and snow.

- Kimberly, Posted: 01/20/2022

This was a great place to stay. Nicely furnished and close enough to the slopes.

- Savannah, Posted: 12/07/2021

It was a great stay! Quiet, clean, cozy, and a homelike feel. We truly enjoyed our time there!

Here is what we loved: - comfy beds and pillows. Lots of throw blankets to cuddle with -loved the yard surrounded by woods, the nine-year-old loved going out for "hikes". Really good for kids that needed to run around - we didn't cook but the kitchen had everything we needed for our stay -loved how close to restaurants and the store -we really appreciated the gates and locks on the porch, helped with the 3-year-old The only suggestion I have is that when you offer the firewood would it also be possible to purchase the deer corn? Or maybe advise where they could get some before they get there. I didn't know that was a thing. The kids found the deer corn outside the first day and we were like..."let's wait and buy our own tomorrow". Then 30 mins later there were two deer in the driveway and two deer downstairs and of course the bag was opened.....the kids spent hours watching them and tossing deer corn. Then woke up the next morning and watched the chipmunks picking up the remnants. I am sure that isn't sustainable to always provide but was such a treat I want to make sure others have the opportunity. That yard is so good for deer watching.
