About this property

The Bear Dance Chalet

Welcome to The Bear Dance, your ultimate year-round mountain escape in the heart of Beech Mountain. Just one mile from Beech Mountain Ski Resort and Beech Mountain Club, you’re perfectly positioned for winter skiing, snowboarding, and sledding, plus summer mountain biking, hiking, tennis, and golf. Lower Pond Creek is a short stroll away, and Emerald Outback Trail Park, Buckeye Recreation Center, and Banner Elk’s wineries, restaurants, and attractions are all nearby.
The space
Your Mountain Home
This spacious, three-level chalet offers multiple living spaces so everyone can find their own cozy corner. On the main floor, the great room boasts cathedral ceilings, warm tongue-and-groove paneling, and a stunning stone fireplace with gas logs—perfect for après-ski evenings. The dining area and reading nook invite lingering conversations, while the fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances and ample counter space. Step out to the large deck for a fire table, charcoal grill, outdoor dining, and crisp mountain air.

Fun & Relaxation
Downstairs, the game room is a hub of entertainment with foosball, air hockey, and a PacMan arcade game. Watch the big game on the Smart TV by the second fireplace or stock up on snacks in the kitchenette. The lower deck offers extra seating, and out back, the 5-person hot tub is ready for a post-adventure soak. End your evening under the stars at the fire pit.

We enjoyed our stay at Bear Dance Chalet. The best perks were comfortable beds, plenty of blankets and pillows, and we never ran out of hot water. The hot tub was enjoyed after a day snow boarding! We fed deer out the back door! On the down side, the listing says it sleeps 12, but there are only beds for 10. It took awhile to warm the house up after we arrived but there are several portable electric heaters available and it did eventually warm up. To sum it up, yes we would return.
