True SLOPE SIDE cabin! Ski Resort and ski lifts out the back door


Rarely does one find a property and location like SiSo the “Rock”. A true Ski In Ski Out cabin located not only slope side but also has a babbling brook that flows along the back side of the cabin! Next to the brook, there is a sitting area with chairs and a fire pit for you to sit and watch skiers in the winter or wildlife the rest of the year. Deer are plentiful and you might have a chipmunk, hedgehog, or bear stroll by to say hello.

Why is your cabin called the SiSo the "Rock" ?
SiSo (pronounced C So) is short for Ski In Ski Out and the "Rock" is well because of the massive rock in the back yard and the 30' shear rock walls that are on 2 sides of the cabin. One of our first projects that we undertook was to accent and highlight these amazing natural features.

When you arrive you will find a spacious parking area that will accommodate 4 large vehicles and a short walkway that enters on the upper level of the cabin. The Rock has plenty of room to roam. The house has 3 levels with the upper level containing the kitchen, dining room, family room, and a half bath. On the second level you will find the Master bedroom (1 King) with en-suite bath and private balcony that overlooks our small creek and two additional bedrooms (1 Queen and 1 King) with another full bath. The ground floor has a bunk room, with a full bath and a game room with an arcade grade air hockey table, The house is stocked with 700 thread count sheets and new towels for the comfort of our guests. We have a Keurig coffee maker with traditional coffee and k-cup ability with a variety of K-cups available.

Step outside and enjoy the creek sounds and Mountain View’s along with watching the deer play and eat.

Newer skiers will have more space to refine their skills located right out the back door of the cabin, called Carolina Caribbean.
Lift #1 is right out the backdoor and the Beech Mountain Resort Village is a short walk down the slope. Have your family sit on one of the 3 decks and watch the kids play while you enjoy your drink because you are right in the heart of where things are happening!

*The house has a Ring door bell camera at the front entrance. This is mainly to monitor the walk path of snow and trespassers. We also have a camera in the rear of the house to monitor snowfall conditions. For your privacy there are no cameras inside the cabin.

*The house has paved city roads leading to it, that are plowed during the ski season.

* We rent up to 3 weeks maximum at a time...if your booking is automatically accepted we will refund you immediately and advise of us doing so. The VRBO system does not allow for us to set this in place prior to your booking.

***Winter WARNING***
SiSo The Rock receives 80-100 inches of snow annually. 4X4 or snow chains are highly recommended. We can receive snowfall from October through April.

***Summer WARNING***
SiSo The Rock can be cool in the summer months. We do experience wonderful 70's and 80's in the area, but we can experience rainy, cloudy, cool summer days that you will need an extra layer for! For the warmer days...we have an air conditioner on the top floor and the master bedroom on the 2cnd floor.

Had a wonderful stay. This house has the perfect setup for all your winter gear. I love that I can see all the action from the living room couch because I don't like the snow. I just like to watch my children.

Siso was excellent
We had 10 people staying at this property, two family groups and it was perfect for us. There were plenty of bed, all comfortable, and plenty of space for us to stretch out. The kids occupied the 3rd floor and the adults all had rooms on the second. Our party enjoyed exploring the mountain and we would love to visit again sometime.
