Our goal for the trip was taking our Florida kids to maybe see snow for the 1st time. This cabin was absolute perfection and did not disappoint. From the helpfulness of the hosts, who helped advise us on restaurants and closest grocery stores, to our arrival process even in the dark...it was a 5 star experience from start to finish! Our girls LOVED the upstairs loft with their two twin beds and little TV area just for them. We had dinners in the cabin every night and enjoyed sitting at the table together looking out over the snow. The absolute HIGHLIGHT was the family of deer that came by the cabin every morning. They weren't too frightened of us and would walk around the property, even while my kids played in the snow outside. We even did some sledding in the front yard hill, while the deer watched. It was the most wonderful winter experience we have ever had and this cabin was exactly what my family needed as a home base for experiencing Beech Mountain. Ideal location, serene setting, perfectly equipped with everything you need. I can understand why these hosts have such high reviews, because they do create a perfect experience for their guests that make lasting memories. We will certainly be back! Thank you to our host, Julie, we will never forget our stay here!
