Updated home atop Beech Mountain

We were a family of 8, 6 adults and 2 children ages 7 and 9. We were able to walk to the ski resort. Everyone could come and go as they wanted. The house was very clean. There was a big Crock Pot. Bring a ladle if needed. We couldn't find one. The drip coffee pot was great, but I would recommend getting one that has automatic shut off. There is a small Keurig, but we couldn't get it to work. This house gave us plenty of room for separating as needed. The downstairs room was great for the kids. It has a pool table and smart TV. I would recommend this house to anyone who wants to be close to the ski slopes. We had a great time.

The property location was spot on for skiing Beech Mountain! From the start the email communication can be a drag especially when your in an area with limited service. Courtesy phone calls would be a nice welcome from time to time. We got notice of the morning of check in that we might not be able to stay the night due to the storm and the previous tenants not getting out in time. Thats not something you want to hear 9.5 hours from home with NO where to stay. Either way it worked out and we were able to stay, of course CCR didn't let me know that (as they promised they would) I just went and tried my code at check in time. The listing said that there were parking for three cars but it was more like one and a half since they snow was pilled in the middle of the drive, we made do with 4x4 trucks. Once in the house we found the dishes were all left dirty in the dishwasher, and the dryer was full of linens. After getting that sorted out everything was ok, until the heat down stairs quit working. I will say that Carolina Cabin Rentals did handle this the quickest and best way they could. The situation was temporarily resolved for our stay and we were comfortable. Overall the location was ideal and the house is fairly nice. It could use some maintenance and a thurough cleaning. I have rented from VRBO many times and I usually try and rent direct with owners as I like the open communication that comes with that. Using a rental company tends to complicate the situation, and most of the times the properties aren't as clean as they should be. It's like it's treated as just another number and NOT there own. Overall though the property was ok and the stay was nice I would use it again it just might not be my first choice.
