Absolutely the best family vacation ever on a mountain top with a beautiful view. We spent the weekend with our family in this most beautiful cabin ever, plenty of room, and the amenities were perfect. The fully stocked kitchen made it easy for us to prepare all of our meals. We’ve decided this will be a yearly getaway for our family. The large glass windows all around was the best for real mountain views. Hot tub was very spacious and relaxing. Mountain view from the hot tub was absolutely amazing. Fireplace was cozy and relaxing. We had fun playing foosball. Loved our experience. We would like to thank you for arranging fire woods as well. As It was a windy weekend, we were not able to use the firepit.
Chrystol, the guest care supervisor is AMAZING as she truly cared her guests. Easy to get in touch with, very responsive and helpful when we needed them.
A must rent cabin and definitely would recommend it. We will be returning soon!

It was amazing, just like the first time. We love it and can wait to set our next reservation again.
From the owner: Hi Edwin,
Thank you for choosing Sky Barn Retreat for a second visit. Repeat guests are a wonderful compliment. Hope to host you again during your next trip to Beech Mountain!"
We stayed 3 nights with some of our adult children and two grandchildren. We have stayed in this property before, and have always loved the view, which is unparalleled. But I must say that what the family has done recently to improve this house is significant and has made it the best of Beech. The glass railing on the deck, the hot tub with a view, the kitchen upgrades, demonstrate a lot of love and hospitality.
We have stayed in a dozen houses on Beech over the years, and this is our favorite.
Words and pictures really can't do this place justice. It was amazing. The house was well stocked, well decorated, and super cozy. The owners left many wonderful things to entertain ourselves, like TVs, puzzles, and games. But if you want to unplug and just take in the beauty of the North Carolina mountains, just book the Sky Barn. I spent hours watching the fog glide through the valley below or clouds consume a peak beyond. I spent hours watching incredible sunbeams and shadows dance along the nearly 180 degree view. I watched birds floating on thermals or landing in the trees below. Every evening, we stood on the deck taking in the last sunlight as the sun set behind the mountain ridge. Absolutely breathtaking view.
