The house was perfect for our family vacation!

The next best thing to owning your own cabin is renting this cabin from Alex and Alexandra. The pictures do not do the inside justice. The views, even with low lying cloud cover, were spectacular. You’ll be blown away by sunrise over the mountains and with the telescope in the game room you’ll be star struck by the night sky. The cabin was clean, well stocked, and very comfortable. The cabin pictures are accurate, but when you checkin you’ll want to take note of the cool little touches that abound, such as the decorations on the pool table. This host is highly recommended. They were timely and responsive in communications, honest in their descriptions, very clear on functionality of the features, and thoughtful in how the cabin was stocked. This cabin has my highest recommendation if you want to enjoy the mountains, but feel at home. Ed

Resting Beech Face was the perfect vacation house for our family. Not only was the central core (the living room, kitchen/dining area, and deck) a great place for gathering, but the house was designed to allow for privacy and quiet times as well. The view from the deck simply could not be better, and the location made it very easy to get anywhere on the mountain (and off) with minimum driving stress.

The view was great. We were very impressed with how it was so Clean !! Some of the bed pillows could use a refreshing clean smell. The green velvety ones had bed head smell. The kids had a great time with the Legos. We were in the master room that was under the pool table room...that was not really a good Idea... We were gone most the time . Meals were easy to prepare had all the utensils . We saw a lot of deer even hand fed them apples...Amazing !! We loved our stay.

Our stay was fantastic. The house was awesome and our hosts were perfect. If we had a question they responded within just a few minutes. We would definitely stay here again.

Nicely-designed and spacious home with great mountain views and excellent location.

Very nice:)

Three families with children, ages 2 years to 13, spent one amazing week in this wonderful home. Set way, way up on a hill, surrounded by trees, beautiful views, and peaceful nature, it was a secluded getaway. The driveway is gravel, and can be tricky to ascend even without snow. But that is the only negative thing I can say about our trip. The owners had great communication from the very beginning, and their website for the property had intricate details for everything we needed to know about the house. There was also great information about attractions nearby that really helped informed how we spent our time on Beech Mountain. The house itself has four bedrooms, but really and comfortably fit all 14 of us. The are extra places to sleep everywhere, and not once did we feel like we were in to of one another. The interior of the house is gorgeous and spacious, with a great wilderness theme that fits with the setting. There were plenty of dishes, silverware, and other necessities that, had we forgotten to bring something, we would be covered. The kids loved playing with the pool and ping pong tables, and the adults enjoyed chatting in the living room with the gas fireplace. The location is amazing. The back porch gives incredible views down the mountain and across the valleys, and with the foliage in the trees you have complete privacy. There was beautiful fog in the mornings and clear stars at night. We even got to light a small fire in the fire pit next to the garage on the lower level of the house. Deer are your constant companions, strolling through the yard and across the roads at all hours of the day. We didn't see any bears, but did see paw prints on one of the trails! I could go on and on about hiking Grandfather Mountain, getting caught in the tourist trap at Mystery Hill, experiencing the Wizard of Oz live theater, but this is supposed to be about the house. Of course, the location of the house allowed us access to all these amazing experiences, and the complete nature of the rental allowed us relaxation and a comfortable home base for all our mountain adventures. This was an amazing trip, and we'll definitely be taking about it for years to come. Hopefully we'll get a chance to return and make even more memories. Thank you to the owners who allowed us to share their place, and have such an awesome vacation.
