Home was a great layout for our family on our ski trip! The basement coffee maker was not working, there were mice droppings in kitchen under stove in pan drawer and in the cabinets under the sink. The hot water takes a long time to reach the kitchen sink and water pressure in kitchen made it hard to clean pots and pans.

Marvelous mountain top house

The house was perfect for our large family. Loved the hot tub and pool table. Enjoyed seeing wildlife in the backyard: bear, deer and skunks. Definitely need a car capable of navigating the steep and winding roads. The hiking trails and nearby recreational center were great.

We had a fabulous time. The house was so welcoming and accommodating for all of us. The privacy was great but still close to food and entertainment. We will definitely consider this home for our next family vaca. Only down side was the bigger beds were not very comfy. Too firm!!

Peaceful Bliss

Our stay at Red Bear Run was perfect for our family. Lots of room for everyone to spread out! Comfy beds. Many chances to see and experience wild life- bears, birds, deer, etc.. Our favorite feature was the location away from everyone, but surrounded by great trails which were all walking distance, as well as the Buckeye Rec Center. The Falls Trail at Buckeye is the best!! Thanks for a great time!!

Family get together in the mountains

Home in a beautiful location. Rooms clean and decorated nicely. Spacious for party of 14. Dishes adequate; however, most of the kitchen’s cookware and accessories needs replaced -old pans with a lot of Teflon worn off. Electric stove difficult to use without burning food (unfortunately I have exact same one at home and I am replacing) Nice washer, dryer, tv’s pool table, and hot tub.

Family Thanksgiving

This property was selected due to the easy access into and around the main floor of home to accommodate my 84 yo Mom who wanted to go to the mountains with family for Thanksgiving. Even though my Mom passed on 10-29-24 prior to trip, we honored her by gathering at Red Bear Run and absolutely enjoyed the week celebrating family. There was 10 of us and we each had our own comfortable space but when we played there was plenty to do from shooting some pool, making smore's at the large solo stove on deck to watching movies or playing games along with a wonderful meal prepared in your well equipped kitchen on Thanksgiving. We enjoyed venturing into town for lunch and some shopping but loved just hanging out at the house with each other. This was our first time to Beech mountain and we plan to return in the future. Thank you for sharing your home with us!!

Nice place

The place is nice and our family enjoyed our stay. There were 11 of us, ages 60-73, siblings & spouses and a nephew 47. All the bedrooms were perfect for us. A lot of the cookware needs replaced, teflon worn off and just ugly. We like to cook and we do. The cleaning crew missed a lot of opportunities to make our stay more enjoyable. We had to do a lot of cleaning when we got there and that is not what we came to do. I reached out to managers & they did send a representative out to fix the internet, and they offered to send cleaning crew or cleaning supplies. We had already cleaned, washed dirty sheets etc. So there was no need for that. Being as old as we are we just do it. After all that, we enjoyed our stay. We come every year to the Grandfater Mountain Highland Games. We are Clan Matheson! If this place can get a better cleaning crew & get new cookware, we would consider this place for next year.

Red Bear Run

I booked this place for a three-day weekend and was disappointed by our experience here. I would recommend to use Google maps if you think about renting this place. There were dirty dishes, missing batteries from the controllers for the TVs, also broken pieces of plastic hidden underneath the tv. You really will need to bring your own supplies for everything. While making dinner one night the smoke alarm went off and we decided to open a window to let out any smoke from the kitchen and opening a door. That caused the actual alarm to go off for the house. We made multiple calls to the office to try to get the code. After about 15 minutes of calling the alarm turned off itself and they gave us two codes and told us to “try these if it happens again.”

Spacious and clean property

House was large and well kept off a gravel road in a good area of Beech Mtn. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was large and easy to cook for a group, easy access to multiple trails/amenities around the Mtn. Property managers mentioned that the parking lot can only fit 4 cars but it could easily fit 6 reasonably sized cars (Rav4, Camry, etc). Fridge drinking water is barely a trickle but we drank tap water and aren't dead yet. Would recommend.

Great time… not great customer service

So to start off …. User error fault but when we booked there was literally two days we could make changes. So once we realized we booked the wrong dates we were unable to move them to the correct weekdays. Considering with had my grandmother which was wheelchair bound me had to drive 2 hours home for dialysis twice because the rental couldn’t give us another rental for the regular week. When we arriaved there was dirty/ stained towels. And multiple places with dog feces. It was like the cleaners just left it there and cleaned everything else . Communication was fast with the rental lace but wasn’t up to par on expected responses. Our time was great spent with family but the home wasn’t the greatest on arrival.

Fantastic experience! Beautiful home, beautiful views. The house was everything we needed. Comfortable beds, plenty of space, well-stocked kitchen, toys and books for the kids, games for the adults - it was all great. The back decks are wonderful for early morning quiet times and late afternoon games. The three floors with bedrooms on each fit our family perfectly.

Disappointing

We were not able to use shower upstairs in fear that ceiling in master bathroom would collapse due to a massive water leak. Barbecue did not have gas. I should of checked it for gas before I spent 15 minutes cleaning it. They took care of it the next day but I couldn’t barbecue the meal as I had planned. A smoke alarm kept ringing in the main level because battery was low. I had to clean some bathrooms and the kitchen. There were dirty dishes in the dishwasher when I checked in. The kitchen is very unorganized, the blinds have a film of greasy dust, I just rolled them up. Baseboards are dirty you can see an inch of accumulated dust in some spots. I was just disappointed with the overall condition of the house. The view is lovely, plenty of space for family and friends to enjoy.

Nice Beech Getaway

This house was very accommodating for everything we needed for a large group of 14. The rooms were very pleasant and the kitchen met our needs. The only issue was that there were some plumbing mishaps with the bottom floor toilet. The owners had both maintenance and a plumber come out in the time we stayed there and it still would not work. The owners were very quick to respond and I am sure they will have it fixed by the next trip for others. If you don’t have 4 wheel drive, it can be quite difficult to access. There is a route that take you more off paved roads and it can be difficult to navigate (it had just snowed nearly 7” the night we arrived). Overall, we had a great time and enjoyed our stay. Large parties, this is the place to go.
