Beech Mountain has added a new amenity for guests – a skybar providing food and beverage service at the top of the mountain. This newly-constructed facility has been named “5,506â€, paying tribute to the elevation that gives us the title of highest ski area in eastern America. Step off the chairlift and into a cozy, glass roundhouse, where you can enjoy food, drinks and snacks in comfort. Be sure to check out the large deck, with beautiful panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
