The view is magnificent! The kitchen is very well-equipped. The space was comfortable and commodious for the four of us. Although the temperatures were slightly above normal, the villas remained cool. Don't miss the breakfast at Fred's General Store.

Absolutely Perfect!

All the 5 star reviews speak for themselves! This home was absolutely perfect for our ski weekend at Beech Mountain. Very charming, clean, and you cannot beat the views. We came on a very snowy weekend and did not have any issues accessing the home. Perfect location for anywhere you might want to go on the mountain- very short drive from the ski resort and restaurants in town. And Tom is hands down the kindest host we have ever rented from. Very communicative and helped to make sure we arrived safely given the weather conditions. Would absolutely stay again and recommend to anyone.

Close to ski slope and all the things you want to experience in Beech Mtn. Cozy, quiet and can we talk about that view?!? My favorite part of the day was sipping coffee and watching the daybreak across the mountains. Definitely what I needed to reset. I’ll be back!

Wonderful place. So convenient

This place is exactly as listed. Perfectly clean with everything we needed. So close to Beech Resort, less than a couple min drive, if that. The kitchen had everything we needed and CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS on how to use fireplace, oven, electronics etc. That part was amazing and made it even more relaxing and enjoyable. Would totally stay again. Oh yeah, when we arrived there was a momma bear and three cubs digging through the large trash dumpster, someone must not have closed the door previously. It was both amazing to see up close but also unnerving because they were really tearing up the trash. Close the doors peeps! Lots of beautiful dear and birds chirping.

Difficult in winter weather but Summer would be lovely.

The property was ok for the price. The carpet should be replaced to wood or tile due to visible use/traffic stains. The place was overall clean but dated, 70's green tubs, dated furniture, older bedding. The owners were good with communication and it fit our purpose to take our 4 year old to start to learn to ski. There was winter weather one morning where I could not get back up the ramp to the unit after I had left to check the road status due to the Ice that had developed on the walkways. The walk to the unit was down a very long/steep set of stairs, would be perfectly fine in summer but in winter was scary at times. The downstairs tub did not drain well (we discussed with owner) and the front door knob fell off while we were trying to exit one day, we had to find a screwdriver to put it back on. Overall an ok stay, fees were reasonable but overall feel the unit needs lots of updates.

We stayed for two nights in this beautiful condo! I wish we could have stayed longer because it was very comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed for a wonderful weekend. The highlight is that view! We sat outside and watched the stars during the evening and in the morning woke up early and saw the most spectacular sunrise! Highly recommend!

This property is very well appointed, cozy and comfortable.Even at 4700 feet it is easily accessible with plenty of parking.The fireplace makes the chilly evenings all that more enjoyable. The deer on the property have no fear of humans and will walk right up to you.However, the real story is the view! Unobstructed, long range and stunning!If I had any criticism, it would be that this property is on the older side and could use a little TLC . That being said, the need for updating, did not diminish our enjoyment in the least. I would highly recommend.

Got our winter fix

Just the right ambiance for a wintery weekend with four friends (two who went snowboarding and two who went to the winery instead ;) Enjoyed very nice dinners in Banner Elk, followed by fireside chats and comfy beds. Thank you for allowing small pets, and for your excellent communication.

Wonderful!!

My family and I had an absolutely wonderful experience at this rental. The views of the blue ridge mountains are breath taking. Beech Mountain Town is incredible! Love the neighborhood. The home felt cozy. Very welcoming! The A/C wasn't working and we rented in June but I'm beech mountain, it doesn't get to hot and it got chilly the nights we were there. We just opened up the windows and it naturally cooked off. The breeze outside was delightful.

Pleasant stay with a couple of notes

This condo is in a great location and is close to the mountain, but a few things you should know if you stay here: First, there is NOT a hot tub, which the VRBO description includes. This was disappointing for us because it's one of the reasons we chose to stay here. Second, no shampoo or conditioner is provided. Third, no coffee is included. That said, each of the beds is king-size and very firm. The fireplace was a welcome addition and frequently used. The home did include a lot of cooking utensils. It's extremely close to the mountains, but (and this is included in the description) you won't be able to park in front of the house. There's also a beautiful view from the back windows.

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Karen Bonfield

Host profile image
Tom and Karen Bonfield live in Sunset Beach, NC and fell in love with the North Carolina mountains shortly after moving to North Carolina in 2008 from Florida. After spending time throughout the North Carolina mountains we decided Beech Mountain was the best place for a vacation home.

Why they chose this property

NRV 17 sits at approximately 4700 elevation and summer days rarely exceed 75 degrees. We love the 80 mile, panoramic year round views and convenient access to everything the northwest North Carolina Mountain area has to offer. While we do not ski we love to be so accessible to the Ski Beech Mountain resort for our three children, spouses and grandchildren to enjoy.

What makes this property unique

NRV 17 is fully furnished and ready to enjoy upon arrival.
