This review specifically is about the sunset dinner event I attended. It's the first year Beech has offered a sunset "fine dining" experience. They have some kinks to work out but I still 100% recommend.
Everything from reservations to food offerings was well planned and seamless. The cost of dinner includes the chairlift ride up and a shuttle back down. Alcohol is additional.
During reservations, we could choose between rack of lamb, rabbit or trout for our evening but it changes depending on availability. The rack was delicious, served with mashed potatoes and sautéed green beans.
We were greeted with an assortment of heavy appetizers. First course was watermelon salad served with olive oil, fresh mint and feta. We chose tiramisu as dessert.
The bar is fully stocked. Service was good after the general crowd was sent back down.
Nothing compares to the panoramic views of the majestic Blue Ridge mountains. It's worth the travel and price to see it while dining.
Advice: go up early to watch mountain bikers and listen to live music IF you like it crowded and loud. If you prefer a more serene experience, arrive just before they close the chair lifts.
