Spacious, clean and awesome location

The property has incredibly central and we were able to walk to restaurants, coffee, ice cream and the large open field in town. Everything was very clean and great communication from the property managers. We had a great stay and would come again!

Great Place to stay

Very nice home with all basic needs covered! It was in a perfect location for access to downtown. The hot tub was great. Perhaps some instructions for removing the very heavy cover would be helpful. The home was clean and the extra touches of toiletries and expertly folded towels were nice. We didn't use the fireplaces but they looked nice. I would recommend this home.

Location

Perfect location between Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain for a ski trip. Super walkable to everything in Banner Elk. Property was one of cleanest I’ve visited, and beds were super warm and comfortable. Even enjoyed the clean, warm hot tub. And, no long list of chores at checkout. Just take out the trash and turn on the dishwasher. Great property. Just be aware there is noise given the location is right in downtown banner elk.

Beautiful

I was super impressed with this property. Very well kept, clean close to the ski slopes. Truly wonderful and will stay here again. Only complaint would be the parking. The driveway only accommodates 1 car and the garage door was broken. The property manager was super helpful in finding an alternate parking space so no big deal but would love to come again and use the garage next time as well.

Ski Weekend

The location was great and had high hopes for the property. Upon entering the inside temp was a staggering 88 degrees F. The fire place in master bath did not work. The master bath was not clean The hot tub did not work I have not received any feedback from VRBO or owners after precious message sent.

Snow weekend

Fantastic for my family of 4 (2 kids ages 7 and 10) and our dog. The only negatives are the street noise heard from master suite (just bring ear plugs). They have a fan in each room for white noise also. We had such a good time and were very comfortable in this home. I would definitelystay here again.

Great location

Great location, walking distance to Banner Elk restaurants and entertainment. Noise from downtown area is not excessive, unit is directly across from fire station but only heard horns and sirens a couple times in 5 days. Unit was clean, well appointed and met all of our needs, we were able to cook dinner each night. Bedrooms are large and beds are comfortable. Master shower does require a bit of trial and error to get all shower heads working. Check-in and check-out were a breeze.

Will forever stay here when traveling to Banner Elk.

This was our second time staying at this property and it doesn't disappoint! My only suggestion to the property management company/owner is to update the Owner suite shower head but other than that everything is fantastic and would 100% stay again if i have the chance.

Nice stay!

Overall this is a very nice unit. Great location to all the restaurants in Banner Elk. The beds were comfortable with good linens. Unfortunately we could not use the hot tub. The water was very murky and had debris in it. The showers really need to be recaulked and new shower curtains put in. The kitchen was very well stocked.

Gorgeous property with quirks

This is a beautiful and comfortable townhome near restaurants and bars if not a bit too close to noisy river rafting meeting points on some mornings. It was a 9 out of 10 experience overall with an unusual and unnecessary negative. Halfway through our stay, the upstairs guest bathroom toilet started to overflow from a clog. We searched and were told there were plungers on the property but found nothing. We were then told that the cleaning crew would stop by to unclog the toilet but they never showed. This was a simple fix but did not happen leading to uncomfortable and unsafe back and forth up and down stairs during the night by my family. Other than this weird occurrence we enjoyed the week.

Awesome place to stay

Location is ideal- overlooks mountains and town. The town music was excellent, and we were entertained on deck. The property was very clean, well equipped, very comfortable and everything was in working order. We want to stay there again next year. A few minor items: Upstairs bathroom top of stairs- hot faucet on sink moves around. Master BR fitted sheets had some sort of blue wax on it. Water pressure a bit low and ran out of hot once. Shower head in MBR a bit difficult to use. Hot tub's cover a bit aged and very heavy. Not sure if recycle available but left note on our 1 bag which we left in garage with other garbage bags.

Walk to downtown Banner Elk

Our son attends Lees-McRae; this is THE BEST PLACE to stay! It's walking distance to downtown - shopping, pubs, restaurants - and campus. Well-appointed. Open space great for gathering. Well-managed. We lost power while there, and our contact was easy to reach and kept us informed until it was restored (very short outage due to wind.) STAY HERE! It's great!

Great property. Spacious with a wonderful master bedroom suite. Ammenties are absolutely cheap. Be sure and bring soap and hair products and coffee and sugar and cream because the host supplies are laughable if even offered. Also they charge over 100 dollars for a cleaning fee but demand you clean for yourself. Empty and store trash start dishwasher etc.
