This 1st floor condo in The Vistas is a short drive from the town of Banner Elk, which is super convenient. The view of Grandfather and Sugar Mountains is just amazing and very peaceful. The pictures online do not convey just how spacious this condo is! It is among the top places that we have stayed over the years skiing, hiking and biking. It is a gem to come “home to” after a day of exploring the mountains. The Profile Trail on Grandfather Mtn. was fun and challenging. Linville Falls is a beautiful hike. We had a great time shopping and eating in the town of Blowing Rock. The owner was a pleasure to work with and was quick to respond. This was our first trip to Western North Carolina, and we will definitely return because there is so much outdoors to explore here. Thank you, Brian B!
