Loved location, we were able to view fireworks from front deck. Unit is well equipped, clean and extremely comfortable. Had the once in a lifetime experience of watching 2 bear cubs climb the tree that is about 10ft from the back deck. Mom was below sleeping with a third cub! Great pics.

Carrie has everything in the condo! There was even a small A/C unit that wasn't needed. In fact, I can't imagine that it would ever be needed. Even now with the current heat wave in full bloom I note that night time temperatures are forecast in the low 60's at Beech Mountain. I enjoyed getting up in the morning and walking my dog up the quiet road to the Beech Mountain Resort. The walks around the area have grades that make it easy to get a good workout. Some of the trails like those at Emerald Outback and Buckeye Lake are in good shape and very enjoyable. But I was disappointed that two popular trails, the Upper and Lower Pond Trails, have been closed since Helene and probably won't be repaired for some time. We tried to do them anyway but it was no go. If you have mobility issues, you should be aware that the condo is an upper unit that requires walking up a flight of stairs. No big deal though, it's worth the climb because the view from the condo is fantastic...one of the best around! Plus there are deer everywhere and they'll go to your hand if you extend it. But one morning our dog alerted us to something really cool: a black bear walking just below our deck. Unable to find a quick snack he wandered off into the woods and was gone.

Our stay was amazing! The host was kind, attentive, and always quick to help with anything we needed. The property itself was beautiful, with gorgeous views and a peaceful atmosphere. Everything was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. We truly enjoyed our time here and would gladly return in the future!

Sitting on the deck in the afternoon was the best part! A bit too sunny for morning coffee but perfect in the afternoon.
