What's nearby

  • This is the headstone of Banner Elk, North Carolina. This elk has been in the town forever, but this past year the elk has been refurbished and installed as the centerpiece of the town. This elk frames Appalachia in the sense of this small town pride in the mountains. In the background you can see the historic elementary school and rolling mountains and once again the North Carolina pride of the state flag surrounding this elk even though about 100ft to the right there is another flagpole with the same flags raised high and proud. This is where every child in this town went to school in this picturesque location but as time rolls on is Appalachia move on too? #appalachianechoes

Great property with amazing amenities! Had a blast.

Came to Banner Elk to go skiing with highschool fIrene’s, unfortunately there was no snow so the cabin became our permanent destination for the trip. It was amazing, every amenity you could think of along with great views. Would definitely recommend.

Incredible mountain retreat

We spent New Years with 2 other families at this fabulous home in Banner Elk. The views were gorgeous and the place had everything you could imagine for all ages. Although, their wasn’t any snow, we hiked and enjoyed every bit of Eagles nest...soccer fields, playgrounds, etc. Will definitely go book again!

HAD EVERYTHING

Great location, kids had everything they needed, including the little hide out room. Fantastic site amenities for everyone...the only reason for a 4 star vs a 5 star, is traffic noise early morning, but with the boom going on in that area, everyine is building homes and that means trucks of lumber etc... other than that FANTASTIC!!

Awesome house

The rental process was very simple, and access to the property made very easy. Joanie and the property management team were extremely responsive and actually reached out before the trip to make sure everything was setup and ready for us. They were very helpful, even reaching out during our stay to check and see if we needed anything. The house is phenomenal, and was perfect for our trip. It provided perfect accommodations for our golf group. We would definitely recommend this house, and we would absolutely rent it again.

Beautiful!

The house was beautiful and super clean. It had beautiful views and was very relaxing. Loved watching movies in the theater room, playing pool/board games, cooking and relaxing on the gorgeous deck. . Great bedroom suites with comfortable beds and great bathrooms. Wonderful home that we all loved it. Kitchen was well stocked, gas fireplace was lovely and house was super spacious. Definitely worth the money. I can't say enough. Highly recommend and Joanie is great!

One upside surprise after another!

This is a really great place. Perched on a mountainside with remarkable views, this is a very spacious and comfortable home. May be the best appointed kitchen I have rented, and the instances of forethought just keep coming. The sticks for marshmallows are at the fireplace. Green egg maintained 600 exactly as long as asked. There are many amenities in this neighborhood. A super place - five well earned stars.

2nd Stay there

Good Stay - Microwave was not working properly, The mattresses are very uncomfortable, the gas fireplace was broken and we had to fix it ourselves. the door to the outdoor fireplace was not closing properly. We found cigarette butts all over the balcony of the hot tub. We would love this items resolved before we book next year.

A great family reset

The property is so well put together. The electronics and appliances are state-of-the-art but straightforward to use. My one area of feedback is for the property company (not the property owner). The after-hours phone line needs some improvement; the call center should have at least the basic details of the property to help with emergencies (for example, the electrical breakers, water outlets, etc.). An outstanding technician, Mr Trapper McGuire, resolved our issue the following day, but the call center needs to improve to avoid dangerous situations. I would 100% come back and would recommend it to anyone! Thanks for everything The Irving Family

Beautiful!

We loved our stay! I have to say the pictures online do not do the property justice. Everything you could think of has been covered! The place is located perfectly and is stunning. We enjoyed the neighborhood UTV rentals all week as well! When we had a question by text we got a prompt response even on a Sunday! We would stay in this property again for sure! My only take away was after a 8 hour drive and arriving at 4PM the cleaners were not done so we all stood outside for 20 mins waiting for them to be done cleaning the property. Another note is the rental company does have a way for you to order firewood and I assumed all 3 fireplaces were wood burning and ordered 7 days worth of firewood. For other renters the only wood burning firewood you need is if you use the outside fireplace. The main floor inside fireplace is gas and the game room fireplace is for looks only. But we loved using the main floor fireplace! Other than that we loved the home so much and will be back!

superb home

The home is far superior to anything pictures can do justice. Having built 3 homes in the 850-million dollar range, I can attest that the owner thought out everything in this home and spared no expense. The furnishings are super comfortable and the kitchen has absolutely everything and anything you could possibly want. The basement is very well equipped and there are endless board games etc to keep you busy. The location is perfect as it's high enough to have a beautiful view but not so much that you need oxygen to go all the way to the top of the mountain which can take time. Easy in and out for visiting Grandfather mountain, Boone, Sugar mountain, beech mountain or anything you may want to explore in the area. We did go up and rent a couple of ATV's to explore the trails in the community which was a gas. We went to Grandfather Winery north of Banner Elk and it sits right by a river and is very peaceful. A couple of negatives is the construction traffic starts at around 7 am for workers heading up the hill which can be noisy but they did not bother us at all. The ice maker was not working and the player piano would not accept CD's to play. 2 bedrooms windows would not open for the cool night but I'm sure they would have come right over to fix but we didn't mind as we were only there 3 nights so we didn't want to give up the privacy of just having the house to ourselves with no maintenance personnel coming in. We will rent the house in a heartbeat again and plan to. Beautiful stay. I hope they don't ever sell it and just keep renting it
