About this property

Renovated, Foosball, In the trees, EV charger!

Pack your bags and family in the car and head to Beech Mountain for an idyllic vacation at this charming cabin in the North Carolina Blue Ridge Mountains. This completely renovated in November 2022 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath home features accommodations for up to 9 to experience all the beauty and adventures this mountainous area offers. Relax on the deck overlooking trees or lounge in the gorgeous living room with vaulted ceilings after hitting the Beech Mountain slopes or trails!

Bedroom 1: King Bed | Bedroom 2 (Loft): Queen Bed and Full Bed | Bedroom 3: 2 Twin-over-Twin Bunk Beds | Additional Sleeping: 2 Twin Air Mattresses, 1 blow up toddler bed

Climb the winding new (completed May 2023) staircase up the hill to enter your dream vacation rental house in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Upon entering Lazy Bear Cabin, you'll immediately be charmed by the living area's spaciousness created by soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed beams.

Kick back and relax on the comfy sectional couch overlooking sliding glass doors to the deck. Between the lovely trees peeking through the windows and the elegant stone fireplace, you will be lounging in style.

Whip up a tasty meal for the family in the fully equipped kitchen. The kitchen table (seats 6) and breakfast bar (seats 2) provide plenty of space for the whole family to spread out and chow down! There is also an outdoor table that seats 6. We have a waffle maker, cold brew maker, coffee grinder, keurig, tea kettle and more in our brand new kitchen with beautiful new cabinets and quartz countertops.

Sip some coffee on either of the two decks while enjoying the fresh mountain air and keeping your eyes peeled for a deer sighting!

When nighttime falls, put the kids to bed in the bunk room featuring 2 twin-over-twin bunk beds, as well as a changing pad, nursing pillow, Hatch sound machine and baby monitor if you are traveling with little ones. Others will love the spacious loft room and the comfy king bedroom!

Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina at the heart of Beech Mountain, Lazy Bear Cabin is the perfect home base for all of your mountain activities and family adventures. The property sits in a quiet wooded area offering tranquility in nature but also proximity to outdoor recreation, eateries, and shops in Beech Mountain.

Winter travelers and ski enthusiasts will be psyched about the 7 minute drive to Beech Mountain Ski Resort for access to a plethora of ski slopes, terrain parks, snow tubing, and restaurants. Summertime vacationers can find equally convenient access to incredible hiking trails!

Pay a visit to Whistle Pig (Beech) or Blind Elk Taproom (Banner Elk) to try some local beers or Banner Elk Winery 7 miles from the house if that's more your style. Hit up Fred's General Mercantile in town to stock up on groceries and check out the town of Banner Elk 15 minutes away for more shopping opportunities.

Snowy escape for 9

We stayed MLK weekend and it was so wonderful. Property was very quiet and cozy and had plenty of room for 3 couples plus our 3 kids. We really enjoyed our deer friends that came to visit every morning. Property was very close to Beech Mtn resort, which was so nice after a long day of skiing. Tori (owner) was excellent at responding. If/when we come back to the area, we will def be staying here again.

Mom’s 70th Birthday/Thanksgiving weekend

My Mom’s 70th birthday was the day before Thanksgiving so we all decided to get away and celebrate her birthday and the holiday together. We had 4 adults, our 20 year old and 17 year old children and our 4 year old Golden Retriever. The cabin was everything the listing said and more. It has been beautifully redone inside. The bathrooms were gorgeous! The beds and couches were super comfortable! The kitchen was FULLY loaded - we made a full Thanksgiving meal for 6 and didn’t need to bring anything from home to use for the large meal. There was plenty of space for all of us. The views were breathtaking!!! We walked for miles daily seeing so many deer. Three bucks were actually in our yard at one time. We stood on the balcony just watching them. Besides walking the area we never left the property. We just wanted to be together and relax. The cabin definitely gave us what we were looking for! We will definitely be back! Also, Tori, the property manager, was very responsive with all my questions and super sweet! There was nothing we had need of while being there. Highly recommend!!!!!

Amazing weekend @ Lazy Bear

Absolutely enchanted by our weekend stay at this mountain cabin in Beech Mountain! The cabin provided the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. The panoramic views from the cozy living room windows were nothing short of breathtaking. Waking up to the serene beauty of the mountains was a true treat. The cabin’s interior was thoughtfully designed, with every amenity we needed readily available.We found the kitchen well-equipped, making it easy to prepare our meals while enjoying the scenery. Overall, our stay at Lazy Bear was a memorable experience. If you're seeking a tranquil mountain getaway with modern comforts, this house is a fantastic choice.

Annual family NC mountain vacation

Our family takes an annual trip to different places in the NC mountains and this was our first time to stay in Beech Mountain. We really liked the location and the house. It was clean, well maintained and overall had all the amenities (kitchen supplies, washer/dryer, linen, etc.) we needed for an enjoyable stay. The stairs to the house were a challenge but all of us (young to old) managed very well. We joked that climbing the stairs helped prepare us for hiking! We loved the two decks which were perfect for quiet mornings and late suppers. We will consider renting the house again. Bonus...if you love wildlife...we had many deer visitors and saw at least 2 sightings of bear in the neighborhood! Loved it!

Nice spacious cabin with all the amenities you'll need. Lots of beds, three bathrooms! Very near to skiing (what we did), and also to hiking, mountain biking, and lots of other outdoor stuff. The host is super responsive and thoughtful.

Great house with so much moutain charm

My family had so much fun and enjoyed spending family time and meals together on the decks. We visited the Land of Oz, had breakfast at Bellas, dinner at Brick Oven Pizza and enjoyed all the wild life. Owners were very friendly and great to communicate with. Very helpful and prompt with any questions and recommendations.

Perfect Place for a Relaxing Family Vacation!

My wife and I had a great time here with our kids! Our son was thrilled to see tons of deer in the yard. My wife was pleasantly surprised by all of the baby-friendly amenities! It's not too often that you go somewhere that has a nursing pillow and changing pad! Overall the house is warm, in a quiet location, and very easy to access. It has the feel of being secluded but it is close to all the mountain amenities and the ski slopes. You can tell the house has been renovated in most of the rooms, and it looks like the owners are working hard to make it a very family-friendly home. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, silverware, and a full set of cookware. We liked that the coffee machine was on the middle level on the kitchenette bar in the living room... we didn't even have to go downstairs to get our coffee in the morning! We had a fantastic time and will definitely be back!

Awesome House!

This house is killer for a ski getaway! My friends and I had a great time! We liked that it was quiet to come back to at the end of the day but close enough for us not to miss out on anything going on on the mountain. We hit the brewery, the pizza place, and Fred's! The slopes were great and only about a 5 minute drive from the house. There were plenty of beds for all of us to sleep in, and we would definitely stay here in the future!

Welcome to Lazy Bear Cabin!

We searched long and far to find our vacation home and we are so lucky the previous owners, Aimee, Scott and Teddy, we’re ready for their next adventure. This family created a beautiful home and had so much passion for the area, that it gives us something to also strive for! We also absolutely love Beech Mountain and are excited to create memories here and to continue to share this home with you. We recently completed a major renovation of the entire inside of the home in November 2022. We hope you love the newly remodeled home as much as we do!

Please make yourself at home!
