Scandinavian Inspired Chalet

Thank you for taking time to consider The Chalet for your Beech Mountain get-away!

Upstairs you will find a remodeled kitchen with an oversized dining table as the centerpiece. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware and tableware for a crowd. The coffee pot is dual-purpose with a 12 cup carafe as well as a Kureg option. (We also provide a moka pot and french press.) The pantry has plenty of space for your own food and snacks. We carved out space for the cozy chaise couch upstairs for reading and relaxing. There are two spacious bedrooms upstairs - one with a king-sized bed, the other with a queen. Each upstairs bedroom has internet TV and DVD player. Upstairs and outside you'll enjoy a wrap-around deck with string lights, a coffee nook, Adirondack chairs, picnic table, and a propane grill.

Down the vintage spiral stairs you'll encounter the downstairs living space. Two couches, 55" TV, game cabinet, coffee table - the kids will love this room! We even left the VCR and extensive VHS collection for our 80's and 90's friends to enjoy. We locally sourced barn wood for the accent wall and standing desk - perfect for charging laptops or playing cards. The oversized laundry/mud room is perfect for all of your ski & snowboard gear, with a functional utility sink tucked into the corner. Both spacious downstairs bedrooms have twin beds, internet TV, and the bathroom is clean & cozy! Electric baseboard heaters throughout the house keep you warm and toasty in the wintertime.

Behind the house is a covered deck with string lights overlooking the firepit. We provide some firewood for your outdoor fires. There is ample parking on two levels. We are located on a flat and quiet street with several empty lots surrounding our home. It's a wonderful place to relax and recharge.

The Chalet is located about five minutes from the Beech Mountain Resort entrance, and another five minutes from the Buckeye Recreation Center. We are walking distance to Fireman's Park and the Wild Iris hiking trail.

Beech Mountain roads can be curvy and steep. The Chalet is on a Town of Beech Mountain road that is maintained but it is at a high elevation and subject to the whims of our mountain weather.
During the winter months or whenever snow is forecast, we insist that your vehicles have 4-wheel or all-wheel drive. Even if your vehicle has 4-wheel or all-wheel drive, snow chains are highly recommended.

Beech Mountain Stay

My family very much enjoyed the stay at this home! The property is as advertised and has a lot of fun touches like board games and dog gates on all the decks. There is also a hiking trail right at the end of the street that my dog, brother, and I went on. We would definitely recommend.

Great trip for family of 4 plus a small pup

The owners are so nice and hospitable. They allowed us early check in and allowed us to extend our stay. The place is great, well thought out and supplies. We really enjoyed this and had more space than we needed. Definitely a must if you want to hit the slopes in NC

This house was beautiful and so accommodating for our family of 6 adults, 1 infant, and 2 dogs. It was extremely clean and well stocked with supplies. We were unable to really explore the area due to rain all weekend, but hope to come back soon to do some exploring. Thank you for being great hosts!

Had a great time at this location loved having deer walk right up to fence line and not run away at every sound. Liz was responsive and gave us things to do. One of the tvs weren't working and she was there quickly with a new one. Was just a nice relaxing vacation.

Great Stay!

This home worked perfect for our group. We had kids downstairs and adults upstairs. That was a great setup. The home was stocked with everything we needed, and then some. Everything was clean and in good condition. We spent a lot of time inside because of weather, but I really liked the decks and backyard firepit area. The owners were great with communication and helpful information. The property is in a good location for skiing, as its a short and easy drive to the resort. Overall, nothing but positive here. I recommend!

A Great House

My family stayed for a couple of nights with our toddler and baby. The house was very well stocked with essentials, including some things for young children. Everything was clean and very comfortable. The weather was unseasonably mild for November, so we were able to take full advantage of the nice backyard firepit and the expansive decks on the house. It is located in a quiet area with only minimal traffic which was nice. Much of the house has been updated, especially the kitchen. We especially liked the large dining room table. I've been in a number of houses on Beech, and this is one of the better updated ones on the market. I will say the spiral staircase could be challenging for anyone with mobility concerns. These are somewhat common on the mountain, but something to consider when booking. Otherwise, the house should be a good fit for most families.
